I can't believe it's finally over. I've been reading this since the first chapter came out in 2009 and it has been a wild ride getting to this point

Damn…for some reason the official novel translation has been cancelled with no explanation and completely removed from the official app right when things were starting to make sense again (it left off 3/5th of the way through the story), so now this is the only way to read the story outside of machine translations

I have been reading this since chapter 1 was released and absolutely nothing else, it’s so hard to believe the end is coming in only a few chapters, it’s been such a wild ride over the years T-T

Nooooooo I can’t believe I picked this up just to be stopped right before the final round…ugh

God, I love when a ridiculous premise has excellent execution. This series is so much fun thus far

I let this marinate for at least 80 chapters and yet!! Tbh it’s much better than I expected given how wild the spoilers were at the time. But ugh I didn’t know we were doing the full underworld tour…is this why his name is Hades?

For anyone looking for chapter 95, here it is: https://anisascans.in/manga/seducing-the-monster-duke/chapter-95/

I don’t know if any other group is translating this series, so I just went with the most recent uploads

Oh? I just realized the translations beyond chapter 60. Tbh, however questionable the writing, I’m still loving the messy dating show aspect of this. Like this shit is supposed to be messy and melodramatic and I’m kinda here for it

Can I just say that I love how mature ML is? Like, sometimes love interests “holding back” or not saying it out of some misunderstanding or misreading can either be frustrating or downright icky, but this isn’t so bad?? I think it has a lot to do with the fact that he’s a regressor who has already experienced the helplessness and devastation of having failed to protect everything he cared for. Like, obviously MC is essential to saving the world so she must be alive to do so and in order for them to achieve this, it’s better they have a functional working relationship because their powers are co-dependent. But ML also demonstrated he has a clear understanding of MC’s boundaries—she might display interest based on her reactions to his not-subtle displays of affection, but she’s not ready to move beyond where they are now, and he respects that. His romantic feelings towards her come behind her happiness and well-being, which in turn are essential to the whole “world-saving” plan considering how often they coincide. Also he knows she’s someone from an entirely different world and is still figuring things out. No, I’m not counting the teasing.

But also Girl you have a man that checks off the entire ML bingo card already in love with you, please put your rofan goggles back on.

I am so happy she was able to remedy her relationship with Raymond in this life, he loves her so much.
