what an amazing well written dark romance story this is. haven't read a fantasy romance where the characters seem realistic in a while. btw why did it end at 162 pls.. gimmie more
also some of u bitches are dumb as fuck defending the ml saying he only went crazy because of her betrayal when the power imbalances were clear as day even before she went back. also HE'S dumb as fuck for thinking that she actually fell in love with him like u need to realize that you/ your family literally forced her to come here and you've seen how distraught she was over wanting to go back to her real world. she fell in love with him in a stokholm syndrome way she was literally 19 when she was dragged into sex trafficking into that world. He was an asshole before she betrayed him and a sex criminal after.
I will always view Ianna as a human traficking victim.
at first i felt so bad for her but tbh... she's right where she wants to be. also some of you are sounding a little misogynistic blaming everything on her. realistically speaking, she was basically sex trafficked into this world to give demons a baby, no one that she loves is there and obviously this world is completely different from our modern one with modern technology, appliances, health, e.t.c. wouldn't you also do everything in your power to get back to your world?? Obviously, her using ml's feelings and abandoning her child is morally wrong but it's disgusting how some of the comments here make it sound like she's the only crazy one/ the one with the most fault in all of this. also another thing people are forgetting is that her mom was sick, old and dying that made her extra desperate to go back to her to say one last thing before she died. i'm not sure if she and her mom were on good terms but it doesnt matter when you're mom is dying in the end. and controversial opinion, anyone saying they would choose a child they were forced to have in order to leave a sex trrafficking situation 100% over their own mother is insane. sorry not sorry.
The thing is, this story doesn't give a crap about what we consider more likely: whether a victim of sex traffic would grow to love her "forced husband and baby" or not. This story has it so that in the end she falls for him and wants to sleep with him willingly, with feelings deep enough that she hates the very idea of him ever "replacing her" with another woman after she leaves. I don't know about Stickholm syndrome, other than the fact that she's not blaming her current feelings on that: to her, her current feelings are real. So much so, that now she feels torn between that "love" and the one for her mother. That being so, her child has become important and cherished enough, that she's even dreaming of seeing it grow up... So if she herself doesn't see the baby as a miserable product of abuse, why do you ask us to do that?
I get your point and because in the end this is a story of some kind of dark twisted fetish (e.g the trafficking, breeding, e.t.c) but I just wrote this for people to not fall 100% for the propoganda of this manhwa (because i saw so many comments thirsting over the male lead, saying it's just her fault and that if they were her they would do better - literally wtf??- that kinda stuff). I guess this is just a criticism of these kinds of manhwas in general because it's so obvious that this is some kind of morally corrupt fetish content. And I know this is just smut fap material but I still think it's important to look at the bigger picture of what kind of plot is being put out here because it's disturbing.
I don't think this depiction of Roth during his marriage to Ianna is really honest or accurate. He was forced into marrying her as well and did it for her sake because he knew she was told she'd only be sent home of she did that. he didn't force himself on her in their marriage and was ultimately a very good and considerate husband who was doing what he could to make the situation as good for her as possible. He did wrong her by not telling her she needed her clothes to return home, but she had just told him she'd lost her clothes so he thought that option was gone and it might've hurt her more than anything else to reveal she'd lost her only way to return by losing them. He never forced a baby onto her. They'd slept together only at her desire to do so, and he only tried to get her pregnant when she wanted to have a baby. Things actually would've been easier for her if a child is all he wanted out of her because he would've just gotten her pregnant and fulfilled the deal for her without her needing to convince him she wanted a child out of love.
It wasn't until after Ianna left that he went insane, though I can forgive him forcing himself on Anna their first time because he didn't realize there was an actual person. He would go in that room to take hallucogenic drugs so he could imagine sleeping with his wife, and suddenly there's a woman that is identical to her there? He thought it was part of the hallucination. After, believing it was his wife he wanted revenge because he believed she'd completely deceived him, worked with his father for his father's revenge over the death of his mother, used him, thrust a child onto him, then abandoned them. he was wrong in his actions at that point, but he was also insane. In the novel, he didn't know about her journal at first, why she left or how it troubled her, that she really loved him. Just the parts of his actions he saw for himself.
It's not really fetish content. It's psychological. Some people find stories where you have to think deeper into the characters and their actions more entertaining.
bruh wth that reunion scene was so lack luster where was the emotional scene that i thought it was gonna be.. also that cat sus asf. i don't even think there's gonna be a romance route but if there was it just feels wrong for her to end up with shin ngl idk
FINALLY A REGRESSION MANHWA WHERE THE FL HAS AN ACTUAL PERSONALITY! I'm sick of those slop fics where the girl literallt gets abused by every single person then goes back and just forgives them all and even worse... ends up with the man that killed her in her previous like. This girl is nawt like that she will finess everyone (manifesting!!). lowkey even need her to fuck her dad up like they're nice to her and i know it was a misunderstanding but he still gotta get fucked up just once. destroy everyone girl!
wait wtf is going on? came for the isekai yaoi stayed for the plot. are there multiple people transmigrated? or is it one of those twists where it's him in both lives he just remembers his past life? also the poor brother... but he also sus asf. someone pls give me spoilers

Mc and his friends + did died in the mall and all of them transmigrated
AHAHAHA I'M DYING THIS IS SO FUNNY and don't think I didn't see that she blushed more when the red head woman was filrting w her rather than the blue head man... bisexual leaning towards women i see u.. gobbling up any yuri crumbs i can get
this is the first time in a long time i genuinely enjoy one of these stories the female mc is the real gem here. good art, well written story and potential.. I'M EXCITED!!!!!
i like this story it's cute. the only thing though is i wish she actually kept to her villaness/ evil girl persona like the second she became small it's like she truly became a baby again.. idk i feel like her priorities keep getting messed up because of her emotions . then again, i do get why though like she is emotionally unstable and all i guess this is just a general critique of this turn-into-baby trope.
She's keeping her villainess, why can't we just appreciate her cuteness
this is a refreshing story it has less cliches and the plot is actually kinda unique. i just wish the blonde girl had a little more depth to her character cuz she's just an infuriating jealous toxic evil bitch but like... i just like to read stories where the villains have more depth to them i guess.
I see you but the thing is she isn’t really the villain, she’s an antagonist alright. The story paint the emperor as a daddy’s girl but in all truth he is just using her. And the only reason the princess 2nd life is different is because she showed him early on she had some uses.
Currently her character is a tad but bland but as the story develops we’ll definitely see more as she starts doing things that prioritise herself but doesn’t align with the emperor. This will show her true jealousy as it stems from not getting love and the abuse while it seems our Mc was surrounded by people who cared for her. She misplaced her resentment and put it on our mc as she was greedy for her life.
