There was the scene early on where MC said the sky was full of colors and when the buildings touched the colors they disintegrated. I think that was a flashback dream that might have been the world ending, and MC was going to accept her death, but ML didn't allow her. So MC almost dying from the colors in the sky lost her memory and now ML is trying to fabricate a regular earth looking experience, even though he, and others are not actually human anymore.... The world has been completely corrupted
*This is a prediction, there is a novel, but I have not read it. I don't know how the story is going to go. This is just an educated guess
Ngl I normally hate amnesia plots, but series like these are why I can't say I 100% hate anything because when done good, it's hella good. I'm now reading two amnesia plots both kinda similar in vibe. And I think it works because both have a legitimate reason there is amnesia, and a good chunk of mystery because we don't know why yet. I'm camping this one!
What’s the other one, pretty please?
It's a BL Korean novel, called If you don't become the main character, you'll die:

MC has selective amnesia, he doesn't know how he died, why he's in this world or who he is to a certain extent. But he does have basic knowledge. It's a very good use of first person native too, it took me like 25 chapters in before I realized I don't even know MCs name.... (There's a very well explained reason for this).
Thank you, but novels are were i draw the line
For those confused. The close MC is wearing in the last panel is a funeral outfit. Grandpa passed and ML woke up after the funeral ended
but hun, does that mean ml never died? was it just like coma? or are they both gone for good?
ML was in a coma this whole time because his soul energy was split between two places and it was weakening him, until he fell into a coma. His soul energy was split because it was keeping Grandpa alive. That is why there was a ML in grandpa's dream space. Now that Grandpa is gone, MLs energy isn't split anymore, so he woke up from his coma.
Been marinating this one. Is it a good time to jump back on?
Yes it's really good
Grandpa smarter than we all thought. He knows about MC and ML, I think he knows that ML is keeping Grandpa's vitality high, making ML sick. If ML stops splitting himself between himself and Grandpa, he'll be good. But go grandpa on identifying this issue
The grandpa knows about ML, because he was visiting him in his dreams. Next chapter will show it
Oho? This is playing out different than the novel... I'm hopeful for some interesting changes!
What part is playing out differently?
It looks like MC successfully avoided MLs subordinate dude and ran away straight into his brother's army, in the novel, ML's subordinate dude did capture MC and there was a confrontation scene between MC and ML about MCs blue snake identity
Ooooo
No wonder I got confused af and remembering it wrong! Hopefully, their next encounter won't be as bad as the novel.
I hope so I heard that the novel is pretty angsty and I love how this is going so far but I don’t want only angst
Ngl appreciate the male SA awareness in this. I know many women in my life who believe that women can't r*pe men. And granted this has a magic system thing going on, but it's one of the only stories I've seen that has this situation and treats it with the discomfort it deserves.
Women can be r*pists too, just statistically very very less than men and you rarely hear about them on a regular basis unlike how often men do these crimes. But I don't understand how that applies here? When he willingly chose to sleep with her though he's disgusted by it, for gaining power?
Or if you meant how the personal knights were forced to sleep with the princesses, that makes sense, but that wasn't implied in the current chapter. It's more of sleeping your way to power (or withholding position until you get sexual favours), not r*pe. Don't underestimate a powerful word like that by throwing it around everywhere
Which is considered r*pe if it was forced or done against consent, not if the person did it willingly for power.
This was written before the most recent chapter came out. It is implying the whole knighting system. ML is an outlier. I didn't know he was in control of his actions when I wrote this post. My point still stands for all the other knights though.
I kinda feel proud at myself for calling that by chapter 15...
Anyone know where any raws are?
translations are on time with the raws,,
Chapter 1, the words "the fabled game" made me think of The Game. And now I've lost :( Bringing you all down with me :P
Great... and now I've lost it too...
