i caught up to the most recent chapter. i will say, i’m glad i powered through because i was gonna drop this after ch 2. i initially thought it was going to be your typical powerless, delicate fl x abusive, controlling ml which i despise to my core, but the way the author wrote out this story is more satisfying than other slop rofans.
while she is weaker, i acknowledge and admire the fact that she’s not helpless. she’s not crying every single chapter complaining about her life and her situation. she understood her lack of power and instead schemed to survive. instead of rejecting him and making him hate her even more, she was mature and mentally strong enough to lie her way into his good graces. do you see how we can have a likable female main character while still making her weak? not every fmc needs to be this girlboss or a powerless damsel who only knows how to cry. i like that the mc is weak and she acknowledges that she’s weak but she doesn’t let it define her. this is good character writing!
i also really respect the author for the most recent chapter. the ml knows the mc is lying and he is obviously hurt by it and instead of making the mc quiet and drag on this conflict, the author instead took the power and gave it back to the mc! i think this is the first time i’ve seen a weak fmc talk back to the ml that yes she knows she’s powerless but she made the choice to stay with him! she could have rejected and ran away but she chose to stay and it was her choice to do so. ugh so satisfying.
additionally, the ml is not the worst i have seen. yes, i would still consider him a red flag but he’s not a black flag. so far, he is still humane enough to listen to the fmc. while he is dangerous, he hasn’t crossed over the boundary of no return. i hope he falls hard for her. i am also a little biased because he’s a pussy eater and in this epidemic of rapists who only know how to shove their cock down the fmc’s throat, i welcome an eater with open arms lol.
this is just me being nitpicky but it takes me out every time she’s in a miniskirt. i’m assuming this is taking place in like victorian ages or some sort of european historic era idk so seeing modern clothing takes me out from the romance fantasy aspect not something that would make me drop a story but it is funny to me. also, it’s so obvious the temple is evil. i hope the brother doesn’t die for sticking his nose into the temple’s business.
