If wild undomesticated evil forest creatures carry weird STIs mythological or not… but i digress what i really wonder is why the fuck do authors have to rely on cheap parlour tricks like this. Idk why i expected better from this author. I have been consuming BL for well over a decade now. If someone told me we are still getting garbage like noncon/rape shoved down our throats in 2025 i would straight up call you crazy bcs even back when i first started reading it was preposterous and campy and still is. What happened to our creativity which gave us superiority as a race over the others.

Since when was an older brother there? AND MLs tutor?! Wtf and he is dead i swear they are just info dumping and acting like we knew the entire time

Wdym, he's been there from the start? They mention how MC's parents had a son (brother who died) and later they adopted MC who's bio parents died or something. I don't remember how but the brother dies after getting accepted in uni and at the funeral some family friends talk about how adopting MC brought misfortune and caused this. We also find out that the brother used to tutor ML and that's how ML first "met" MC.
I was reading this between updates to pass time for my main course updates and frankly at times their relationship pisses the fuck outta me and I absolutely couldn't stand ML who seemed to trigger phantom daddy issues that I didn't even know I had but like this has seemingly grown into a fun story and I am strong enough to give credit where it's due.
