holy crap this is one of my all time favorites. the way the author tied everything in and reflected to the past with scenes in the present? holy.... honestly this was a masterpiece i’m glad that the white haired dude never forgave the other guy (i’m terrible with names sorry) i feel like if he did this story wouldn’t be realistic at all.

i literally read this whole chapter and did not understand a single thing .... like i KNOW i read english but i have no clue what’s going on

basically, Sid said he found the doctor, but he was murdered. and since Sid is Cain's right-hand man, the doctor can't just accuse him of lying. this whole chapter was just about the doctor and Sid thinking about how not to be screwed. and as the other demon is still with the finder and bored he can end up in the middle of the confusion too

i think in this universe, (i don’t remember their names bear with me) White Haired MC never got his leg broken. Tattooed Love Interest dude never got into that huge fight where he sexually assaulted MC. i kinda got this with the MC going to “practice” vs the fact that when he got hurt in the original story like they told him he couldn’t play soccer anymore.

i just wanted to say something cause i’ve seen a lot of people saying that it’s basically the same thing as the omega being the weak one and the alpha being the strong one but the fact that the roles are reversed makes this a much better portrayal. in the Gay community a lot of people think that the bottoms are super feminine and weak and the tops are abusive/manly and a lot of the a/b/o stuff adds to that narrative.
the fact that this doesn’t and actually shows that the bottom can be strong and like sex just as much as the top and the top can be soft and emotional is a much healthier example...
i felt sick the entire time i was reading this. it’s very symbolic having the MC become the exact same as the pedo guy. the pedo guy became how he was because he was groomed and raped and he did the same thing to the MC, the cigarettes are kind of like a stand-in for that, showing that their personalities and traumas and anxieties have become the exact same.
off topic but i hate how people on t1k t0k are putting this on videos that say “messed up yaois i recommend!” and “my favorite BL and yaoi mangas!” it’s kinda sickening that they label this as yaoi. it used to be under the yaoi category on this site and they changed it to shota. this isn’t about a man loving another man. this is pedophilia to boot. it literally triggered me reading this and i don’t get triggered that easily. so, like, in short, if you are one of those people that put this on a “messed up yaoi” list along-side consensual relationships with TWO CONSENTING ADULTS—even if it’s a TOXIC relationship i don’t care—you’re wrong. the point of this story isn’t that the both main characters are gay, this was not to tell a story that centers around a relationship (toxic or healthy) between two men. this is about pedophilia and the damages it causes to the psyche. it’s not “quirky” to make memes and references to this like killing stalking.
