So...if your BF was secretly a tentacle nightmare, would you guys want The Truth or to just stay "gaslighted"? (I mean, when it comes to his "true form" matter)?
I fear I want to be gaslighted until I'm to in love to care!!
Same. I think this is one of those cases where rather than "show", I prefer if they "tell" (as in, "tell me what your true form is, if you want, but please, for heaven's sake, I BEG you... don't SHOW me!!")
My Xianxia Lord was suffering... ( T﹏T )
What is xianxia?
A genre, kind of a Chinese style fantasy, where they cultivate to become more powerful.
Ooo i seee
Everything's a darn secret, the ML's starting to get me irritated with all his secrecy. So much of it, it gets confusing what the general public know and what they don't know, about him, his curse, and his monster-infested territory (which, I'm guessing, is right above the "hell" place that the FL allegedly "visited"). It's so confusing, I'm not even sure if the monsters' presence in the ML's domain is like a state secret from the general public by him and the imperial family, since when he defeated the ones in the forest he ordered his knights not to spread it around.
Ok, I know shit about Cthulhu mythos, but after hearing these gods come from Lovecraft, this is what I thought I could ("allegedly") figure out through "research" (corrections and additions WELCOME):
_"Blind Idiot"(the ML?) is the nickname of "the god" Azathoth.
_"Crawling Chaos" (Maybe that's Nia?) is the nickname of "the god" Nyarlathotep
_The "elephant head god": ...Chaugnar Faugn?? (if it is, it's a *vampire* elephant?? wtf...)
_The "hood and cloak god": ...The King in Yellow?? (whatever that is...)
Ugh, why is the mirror there, now?? That darn thing keeps teleporting all over the place, causing trouble!! Now it's showing up there, but how the heck did Hathor's servant girl manage to get her hands on one of them, to transport it there ?? I know since chap 184 that the flower girl who serves Hathor has been spying on Horuseth through that flower stuck inside Horus' pants, but how the heck did the mirror come into her hands this time?? Last time, it was Sekhmet who had both mirrors, in chap 186) Did Sekhmet send one of them mirrors to Hathor or something? (unless there were more only two of those mirrors?) I swear that thing is a deus ex machina
Thanks for the chapter mentions. I completely forgot about the flower and forgot some things about the mirror.
You're welcome! ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Everytime she uses one of the Blood Cult Master's sword techniques I swoon like crazy! (he's obviously a Xianxia cultivator, and I used to be such a Xianxia BL addict...). We've already got some of Water Sister's and Temptation Gramps' backstories, now I really CRAVE the Blood Cult Master's! (Especially, given how it's HIS power that gives her that cool sword fighting!)
Lol it's hard to take it seriously with these dialogue exchanges.
FL: "You startled me! Why did you sneak up on me without making any sound?!"
ML: "Well, I heard you calling, and teleported"
FL: "Sure... what are we having for dinner?" (...I think I LOVE this girl's personality)
Lol he's such a cosmic stupid dork while she's so painfully logical and down-to-earth. Love the contrast.
I mean, I think he yearned for someone to save him from his galactic dorkiness
For the record: NOT cheering for any kind of particular "endgame" yet. I'm purely enjoying the comedy aspect.
The story's really nice. Good plot. A female lead that keeps her resolve in her second life properly. A setting and plot development that leaves the reader really intrigued and wanting to know what will happen. And of course, beautiful art and characters (though I'm not exactly thrilled by the different skin tones assigned between the "villain" group and "hero" group so glaringly and perhaps so deliberately, I'd kick the author or artist in the face... or whoever's responsible for this imbecile decision, because that person definitely has... problems)
Aside from that GLARING issue, there are only just a few plot-related details that are off-putting about this: how we're left in doubt about whether the ML saw the FL's abuse in the past life (when he came to spy on them) and if he did, then if that actually means he ultimately did nothing to help (I mean, even if he's the one who turned back time for her... if it turns out in the past he was a passive spectator of her abuse, it wouldn't sit well with me how in THIS life, he'd go and tell her something like what he said to her already: "that he wants to see her cry"... Bc that would give this comment a whole new, aggravating meaning). Another thing, I'm a bit irked at how touchy-feely the ML is with her (and oblivious that he's feeling enough authentic sympathy and compassion to feel attracted, and not bc he wants to use her), and last, how idiotic it sounds that, for the sake of plot drama and to give the 3rd daughter some inane excuse to be shitty, the mother was for no reason made to decide to keep the secret from her 3rd daughter, that her oldest sister was in fact her full sister, when she could've just told her and made her keep the secret. That last one was just stupid.
