This is one of my fav series of the genre, and as someone who read more than halfway into the novel, well I personally dont mind "harem" or fanservice writing because in my opinion even with those elements present each female character still has a well written story that is able to make them stand out beyond the MC, and other than the female charas there are also quite a few Male characters who receive a lot of focus so its whatever to me
But for anyone curious, over time most if not all his close allies begin to find out that he is Kyle, so not only does Leo never see the girls of the present as someone his equal, now the girls also realise that he doesnt just talk like an old man but is one
The true romance elements are only ever present with Luna and Lysinas, within those 2 Luna is my personal favorite and who I think actually receives the most "love back" from Leo, but Lysinas is also a fan favorite and has quite a few scenes so, if its ever a harem I guess its not impossible it would be these 3 together. I honestly personally dont even consider any 3rd option a possibility and so far neither does Leo soooo
Ohh yeahh, i forgot about luna .. but based on what i read so far (manhwa only) i think their relationship more like a platonic?
Its def not!! Once Lysinas learns that Leo read her note she will be a bit more direct, but Luna is the boldest esp given her already established reckless and straightforward personality
I could tell more but I wouldnt want to spoil bomb you if thats not what you wanted
Based on other comments this is clearly an unpopular opinion, but I do not think the ending change was that bad. In the end the artist wanted to make this into a story of love, not hatred, which sure, is cheesy but is it that bad? There are far more stories where there are shittier charas who get forgiven or even become the ML, or those where the MC is calculative and scheming and gets revenge. But this one although she said she has been wanting revenge the focal theme was always love, so even if its not "satisfying" per say, its not a ending that felt out of place at least in my opinion
I ended up caving in and going to read the raws
The manhwa in korean has around 120 chapters at the moment, I dont understand Korean so I mostly understood what was happening from images and comments
What I can tell is, story progress slows down a lot, like its not like nothing good or exciting happens, but far more should have happened in basically 90 chapters
From what I know, the novel and manhwa are different at the moment, I haven't read the novel so if I ever mention it I will just say "supposedly" since well its what I heard is supposedly different with no confirmation
Basically Carl is still gonna be end game no doubt
Desa actually ends up showing herself to Arit once in private, and next in an encounter, but her identity is still not known. Desa is honestly so good, many KR readers loved her, and she does genuinely like the emperor so I kinda hope since the manhwa is changing some stuff, that there is hope for her happiness
The top 3 from what I see are Arit, Anya and Desa, ngl I dont think anyone would have minded if the ending ended up being Yuri xD
There is another incident where Anya is targeted and almost dies, this time Arit ends up giving Anya a magic circle (same one the purple dude has from Desa) to ensure her safety, and towards the end of the 120 chapters Carl learns that Arit is a witch
If anyone ends up reading this, feel free to ask for more questions I guess
It did get a bit boring just scrolling through 90 chapters without being able to understand it, but I really love this manhwa, its very unique and an underrated gem in both novel and manhwa form
What happened to desa in the end? I heard the Emperor falls out of love with desa
Fell in love with arith and lost the bet
Not the Emperor. Unless you're telling me desa fell in love with mc?
Oh sorry i thought u were talking about the emperor. Im not sure but ive heard she have her heart to the emperor and is about to die thats why she made the bet in the first place
Gave*
Ohhh I see
Thank youヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Hii can i please have the link to the raws
Back when this was first airing as a novel, I was super into it, I just forgot to keep up after mid point cuz it became tiring to keep up w daily updates.
Tbh I have my few complaints about the manhwa currently, but luckily its not too bad though it could be better.
While I was reading my fav was Illya, but Clyde is a fan fav too. Also she has a really nice friendship with Damien at some point.
For those interested
This manhwa is currently collabing with the Tower of God New World game, you can see Ijin, 002, and Alice in story and also get a free 003 from loginning in
time to start playing this game again
Honestly I also thought maybe he is the future self but it just feels odd to me because after he shoots the guy he goes "so you reacted differently from me after all", referring to MC taking the bullet but obviously its because MC wanted to test his healing so it wasnt out of pure good will either
But anyways the idea is that if he is the future, he would be one that didnt experience the "present" in other words a form of his consciousness being pulled into the game in 2 different age groups and locations at once, so they coexist but never experienced each others lives
My other real theory is that thats not him, but his "player account", for a while now its been mentioned as a player he has Unicorn Zone as his base, and also the other guy seems to look exactly like his player account while as he is more of a younger self of his real self. So I think thats his player account that came to be from his actions but isnt entirely him
Just a guess
Imo, he's the npc made based in dopamine. Yk the guy in the knife zone? He hated dopamine because of this npc, he was super op because he's based on dopamine character in game so it's super difficult to defeat him. If I'm not wrong, there should be others copy's like that but dopamine defeated all of them.
It's definitely because he was based in how dopamine behaved in the game and not in his actual personality, so he's basically based on data and not on dopamine himself so it's not actually accurate and that's why that guy says "i thought we were the same" or something like that and that's also why he knows basically everything, because so does dopamine.
Also, idk but maybe that's why he also has access to the chat, because since he's basically dopamine in game, if he cleared all the zones and got rewards so would his copy but since that's data, the copy would have access to them sooner than dopamine himself. That would explain the chat thingy.
And since the NPCs are a part of the game itself, it would explain why that guy was already settled and not suffered the reset along with the other players.
Exactly!!!!! Also, I think him “testing” & checking up on real dopamine is because the AI dopamine is extremely intelligent like dopamine is, and he recognized himself to be AI.(And decided to roll with it?) AI dopamine was comparing how his real self & in-game self act and react.
He’s in the unicorn zone because that’s dopamine’s known preference. It was mentioned that if real dopamine chose unicorn, like he usually does, he’d be undefeatable. So of course AI dopamine would choose unicorn. He isn’t a kid because he isn’t a real player, just the ai from the game. Or maybe he is real in-a-sense now? I dunno. There’s still questions but this makes the most sense rn. Someone also suggested it was his mom.
