The romance has barely started at chapter 20 but I don’t even care - the other elements in the story are interesting enough that I’m getting fully invested. Don’t even get me started on the MC - he’s got attitude and moral problems. the kind that sets him up for character growth later on with the ML as the catalyst. Speaking of ML, he’s so precious - I’m really cheering for him. I wish fervently for things to go well regarding his problems. My major fear is not ML and MC not getting together - rather I fear that something awful will happen to ML and his sister (PROTECCC). To me, if something happens to MC, it would just be karma coming back to him, what with the way he’s been handling things - I honestly wouldn’t lament about that, however much pitiful his past may be. Being in a pitiful situation is not really an excuse to ruin not only bad people’s live but the innocent people’s lives. That’s just my view on it. I can understand that feeling of desperation - but I refuse to understand his method. BUT MC is still a very interesting character I’m invested in. Putting aside his mysterious background, he gives me the vibe of a mythical creature blending amongst the masses - I’m quite convinced he’s an immortal, what with the scene revealing that part of his motivation for earning money is to cross the river (I think it’s the river to the afterlife even though it wasn’t explicitly mentioned). There’s also his two other companions who give me the vibe of creatures from folklore as well. I love when any manga incorporates folklore, so I can’t help but be interested.
