I mean it’s an ok read, I liked it decently. He def had a harsh past but man he is ROUGH at first, and like v understandable considering how fucked his past is but goddamn.
I get we use villain as a loose term a lot of times but man.
Aside from that the FL also makes it seem like she hadn’t lived multiple lives before. It’s frustrating when they don’t behave like they have. She’s none the smarter or brighter for it. She’s just the same kind girl which ig could have been the point but like cmon.
I can say happily that if ur looking for a turn ur mind off, happy simple story this one is it. It’s not too simple that it’s boring, but it’s not extremely heavy. It’s got a good plot, not generic and the characters r really likable. Even the side romances r really enjoyable. And the ending lands as well.
9/10
Why does she think this mf is gonna kill her at every turn of the way? It’s like he’s clearly acting different and just becuz u think THINK u read it once at one point or another, doesn’t mean shit is the same.
AND IF SHE WENT THROUGH WITH IT she made everyone go through all this trouble to come back with him.
Like???
If he wanted u dead he would’ve killed u sooner, if he wanted to take advantage of u he would’ve done it sooner, but it’s like she can’t process it.
Either way, 6/10 it only gets bumped up cuz the story is cohesive and the art is pretty.
Felt very brand, almost like eating unsweetened yogurt or cereal. There’s plot there, clearly, but there was nothing driving it. So many plot holes, so many missing story lines, and the romance felt flat on its fking face.
Some person gripes: I hate when they place romantic interest like this too - this guy clearly willing to lay his life down for her cuz he had nothing prior.
Just like how she hated the other trope, I hate this trope - the servant-turned-romantic interest trope.
Either way it wasn’t well done, if ur gonna write something like that at least make it fun to read.
Another thing is that I hated her insistence, constant and all the time about how she NEEDS to see the story straight even though it’s clearly derailed. Maybe it’s her holding onto her sister IRL BUT HOW TF WOULD WE KNOW WHEN THEY DINT EXPAND ON IT? You only see her in mention??? And she doesn’t bring it up again.
Either way; point is it was disappointing.
Like r serious???? It was going so well - now I get those TikToks about plots going awry somewhere along the way. We lost it.
I mean it’s a lil confusing is the sense that like… honestly could’ve done without the sex in this. But aside from that the story was ok. I mean im not sure how to really put it, I give it solid 6.5/10.
it’s not that horrible - it’s dubious. 1000%. But honestly not shocking with how most stories with adult themes are.
Warnings for some Noncon and there is the age gap, however, as weird as it is, she’s also immortal so if twilight rules here.
It is pretty soft despite the other comments, again, could’ve been worse. Again if it’s not ur cup of tea, don’t read it, but solid 7/10 for a short story.
If you like to go into it blind, don’t.
Though I guess no use to warning that now, yes she does end up with the knight.
Yall r playing too much, I’ve seen worse criticism on stories where the ML misunderstand something for a sec, but this? This was too much.
Can’t believe she fucking ends up with him D: isn’t the best kind of lead the slightly obsessive one with a healthy way of backing up when they see it hurts? They shouldn’t have set it up like that then! Ughh… she should’ve ended up empress. By herself.
I know he’s changed or whatever but to not even let him fully know his crimes becuz you really can’t even glaze past what he did????
His crimes:
Neglected her, married another girl and made her second, basically borderline assaulted her, got her pregnant, this fucking other girl after months of saying she wanted to go home suddenly falls in love and they dump all the work on her, made her accidentally lose the baby, her dad rightfully got mad and then idk if he did do it but then his other wife got pregnant and dad made other wife lose the baby, he KILLS HER MF DAD, she doesn’t know this tho and she begs for his life and he MAKES HER grovel and kiss his shoe, he tells her he killed her dad and she rightfully crashes out and stabs him, and finally she gets executed.
CANT FORGET TO ADD THE ADDITIONAL CRIMES TO NON FL:
is actually obsessed with FL past her death, neglects her too, is a bum ass leader that gets killed, and she dies too.
Like look at that damn list, it’s so long and like… there’s no trust here no more. There shouldn’t be at least, if she was smart cuz wth.
Naaah all the blame should go to the goddess , what you mean jeoun is your favorite child and literary making her the biggest victem in all timelines
