Just a little venting and praising…
The FL did mourn her and the previous owner of her body’s past but she didn’t wonder the whole time whether or not she could alter the main storyline instead she took actions that would ensure her safety and began paving a path towards happiness. The OG FL is adorable and the rest of her family was worth winning over! I’m not even irritated, just cursing the FL’s and previous body owner’s scummy fathers and hope they and her brother and sister feel powerless and valueless as she felt. (︶︿︶)＝凸
Just some thoughts ahead….
I read some comments before reading and I’m at 13 ch. at the moment. I can see why many people love the 2nd ml. I thought some things that aren’t typically seen: FL isn’t going on and on about how she’s got an inescapable fate and can’t can’t fully enjoy or live life in a new world, her dedication to helping the main couple was cute, and not being delusional about ML’s sociopathic tendencies, constant craving for entertainment, and warped view of love that most likely came from whatever conditioning he went through to get to where he is now. I think she could’ve ended any hopes with 2ml early but he knew that her and ml were already falling in love they “just hadn’t realized it yet.”
I love this quote from Kellian, “a fiery love isn’t bad we’ll burn up together until nothings left” ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
The main story changed so drastically due to her efforts on keeping him entertained without him steering straight into becoming a mastermind killer. The irony is that his step-sister already loves him and accepted him even with that sociopathy nature of his, but I wonder where things go from?
Quite a lot ahead…
Like many have said Edith knows how to handle herself in difficult situations, and that last line is so well timed and reminded me that before Killian went off to war and his father still hasn’t recognized her as a daughter of their house to be protected (and they’ll be battling her trashy bio fam)…and a couple times before when Edith was doubting her place with Killian he’d encourage her with, “what’s your name?” Even when he’s not there she uplifted with that and his heart she wears around her neck (necklace). And Killian recognized he’ll never get his father’s approval on anything and only calls him “your excellency” inserting the void between them that his father definitely made bigger…what’s wrong with that man saying his love is nonsense? His other daughter-in-law ha known the pain of being illegitimate and not being accepted by her family, it would have made her a better OG FL to recognize Edith’s suffering as a political tool of her family, I know the author is pressing for black and white storytelling, but it’s so much better if someone knew how her trashy family treated her.
Just some venting…
I get she didn’t want the obsessive ML route and wanted to help someone being auctioned off…nothen wrong with that I’m thinking the way she just hoped for the best as her bros carried her off was sad. Like I’ve seen maybe getting him a loving family that wanted to adopt a gifted child that needs healing from many traumas perhaps or begging her father to let him grow up alongside her as a friend her own age not her servant. Something other than… “be free and live a good life young one.” ╥﹏╥
Spoilers and venting ahead....
As the readers we see all things that happen and have to impatiently wait until certain characters realize what's going on or comes out of denial on their own since they don't have the same info. I liked those moments when Clodan reasearched his curse just to come up empty when he couldn't break it, when he genuinely told Ray he doesn't know what love is, while at the same time he allows himself to get swept up in whatever emotion takes him: rage, jealousy, and lust. It broke my heart a little when he allowed her to chase after the bunny, knowing she wouldn't want to harm while knowing he wanted to corrupt her. I also wonder about that little Clodan she saw in her vision that was trying to help her stay true to herself. Clodan masterminded Ray's grandpa to send her there for entertainment and didn't expect to like her lack of ultrerior motives and trust so much. She begged to be allowed to know what was happening, I understood not telling her at first but to keep her so in the dark is irritating. Should I not have the option to know I won't be human anymore? I like Ray but I wonder if there will be real character development for either since Clodan can be incredibly selfish and greedy, the beastly nature is coming through alright, but will this be a devastating end where Clodan is just as lonely because Ray hates him or prentends he doesn't exist, maybe she escapes? Or will she become strong enough to stand up to nonsensical behavior, give him clear ground rules for how he treats her and at least if he lies to everyone else don't lie to her, I want some taming and apologizing.
*spoiler*
I get she doesn’t want people talking at work or seeing her as a cougar. I’m just sad at the moment, one of the MLs was always drawn to older women who would string him along while the other wasn’t particularly interested in anyone but wanted to help his bestie. They’re good guys and she’d make a nice partner for them. But, will she spend forever not considering the relationship with the 2 MLs as a serious/real one…and when she said they were her cousins. That really surprised me, I guess I pictured them telling the creepy guy off and saying something in regard to them living together and hinting at their relationship….and of course sex at some point. （￣へ￣）
Or maybe people would gossip about the fact she has TWO young boyfriends?????
Thats a possibility too…I’m with everyone though I’m hoping with my whole heart it’s a poly relationship but she’s giving me vibes that potentially she’ll pick one or neither of them.
Dw, next chapter they have a talk about it. The sex just comes first
Well Lux tried talking to her about what’s going on, plus she starved the poor lust demon he was being so patient. At the same time he hasn’t talked to her any further about his last partner that betrayed him, so they’re at an impasse.
Some venting ahead...
I'm glad that after all these chapters those triplets hatched, I'm not sure about the passage of time or how long pregnancy lasts in this world but it's been forever. I get that differences on the smallest level will be grounds for prejudice and discrimination of the highest levels, but it really killed some of the joy. And wouldn't this be the time to start getting people use to half-beasts, I mean everyone in this world has elements of other animals or are more human-like, actually it would make more sense to ostracize the beasts that look more human. Since the FL started movements on improving lives what about slowly integrating civil rights, I also expect that the "half-beasts" would grow tired of living hidden from others and start living unashamedly. I know they began from a curse but why should they change who they are? Σ( ￣□￣||)
Right! Like what about everyone who was mining the salt with the half beasts? And didn't her chief agree to her marrying Fleurs, the Lord of the half beats? That should have been the stepping stone towards ending the discrimination.
I didn’t even think of that, it would’ve been a good example of love between the half-beasts and other beasts like you said, it also would’ve made some interesting revolts to quell, and where people hate/misunderstand and disagree there’s people who agree and may love the change in time. I would’ve liked to seen more couples or friends amount the half-beasts, then it wouldn’t seem like such a insurmountable barrier.
