I hate harem as much as the next person, but reading this the harem didn’t really put me off. Hayan is more “comedic relief”, his ‘soulmate’ honestly I love her craftiness and don’t mind her- she’s not your typical ‘all over the mc with just big boobs’ and the other characters have a similar feel. But I’m a good 60 ch behind so take my words with a grain of salt (and our tastes can be diff but I recommend you give this a shot)

i wanna read this story so bad but the nasty crusty stank harem thing puts me off so much. why do authors do this?
