I love it when “transmigrated/reincarnated into a novel” series subvert the og plot by revealing that the mc or narrator was subjective or biased! It just adds a lot more depth and intrigue to a story that can become stale when the mc always knows and prepares for everything perfectly. It adds more mystery and keeps the reader on their toes. ヾ(☆▽☆)
Ok sentient jelly hand curse is definitely the weirdest mechanism of the forced proximity trope I’ve ever seen…
The royal family pisses me off the most, because it’s their weakness and negligence that lets asshole Duke run rampant all over the kingdom ruining everyone’s lives. If he has properly protected his subject from bs drafts, Deon’s tragedy would have never happened. The king could have let Deon know the Duke was behind everything late. The king, Duke, and demon king just constantly manipulate him into a corner where his only way out is chaos and destruction
Bro if my one and only superpower that I’ve been waiting 20+ years to manifest ended up being this, I would just cry. ╥﹏╥
And so accurate to the patriarchy that they fully expect her to have sex all of the time to purify and purge energies, but degrade her for being “vulgar” when she actually enjoys it.
The uke is completely fucking nuts, but in a refreshing way? I guess I’m tired of seeing the same character types and relationship dynamics over and over again, and this seems like a welcome departure. Wishing them a happy ending tho ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I do like the story, but I find Alex’s character arc to be kind of… flat. It just feels like her abilities, accomplishments, and growth are kind of meaningless because Menas basically handed them to her on a silver platter. It’s not that she doesn’t have talent or determination, it just feels like she never has the chance to demonstrate any independent proficiency without getting a helping hand from Menas or plot armor. To me, it kind of devalues the plot and makes her a lot less interesting or enjoyable as a character.
It doesn’t even make sense that she can use Menas’ skills. Her skill clearly states that she gains abilities from bosses she DEFEATS. Menas completely faked that battle and she did not injure, incapacitate, or corner him at all beyond what he deliberately allowed. If he had different intentions, he could have turned around in that moment and wasted her, or just destroy her without faking a defeat. So she could just pay anyone to throw a fight and that get all of their skills because it still counts as a defeat?
I don’t know why Alex’s character is so poorly actualities when the author has several other op characters with better development and characterization
This comic is so unserious in the best way ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Can an FL be allowed to gain confidence with her imperfections without magically making her conventionally attractive before she can grow or attain any level of success?
I’m bummed that her birthmark “deformity” randomly vanished after she went back in time. It’s not uncommon, but it’s annoying when making sure the FL is conventionally attractive is prioritized over all else. Character arcs of MLs accepting their “imperfections” are somehow allowed, though less so because in male characters those traits are not automatically considered defining of their entire character and how they’re treated/perceived.
A knight or assassin FL is always petite and slender with no noticeably muscle or scars. A severely or terminally ill FL is always thin, but somehow not in a gaunt or jaundiced way. A non stick thin FL who is either curvy or overweight? Soul swap, reincarnation, revival, time travel, or some other trite magic with take care of that until she is supermodel slender.
Is it really so impossible to write a story where the FL learns to be comfortable with her “flaws” and attains success and love without getting a magic makeover first? I just wish stories wouldn’t even bother adding these traits if they’re just going to be magicked away for no other plot relevance than a comparative “glow up” without any relevant character development related to the traits themselves
I’m guessing by killing the parents, they can assume all legal rights to the hybrid children while completely isolating them, then they can brainwash them from birth to do what the family wants them to.
That's the only thing I can think of. It's fucked up! I'm glad he's rebelling! He deserves better. Get your man and move on with your life!
