I get anxiety waiting this, thinking about this, reading this. But also if I don’t because I NEED to know how it ends. Also? Where are the teachers? Do they not have a least one teacher who cares the he’s visibly abused like every other day
yaoi logic
MC and ML are colleagues. MC has a crush on ML but hasn’t confessed. ML dies, ML appears in front of MC. Stuff happen. Turns out ML knew MC from the past (past life?) but didn’t get with MC in present time bc it would bring MC misfortune/bad luck and he was cursed to live a miserable life. But in the end MC shows/proves to ML his life would still be miserable without ML and ML is what makes it less miserable.
I’m pretty sure ML was MC’s boss. He might’ve been a dragon (or I’m just mixing things up)
Is it a BL? Think I might know it if so
Yes!

Maybe this? Kinda fitted with the dying and.the colleagues part + boss
Yesss! Thank you so much!
I’m really a fan of this specific troupe: MC is killed and reborn in the near future in another person’s body and ML recognizes them. I literally have a list and would like to add more. https://www.mangago.me/home/mangalist/3083256/
dawn of the dragon, though the ML takes some time to recognize his soulmate
omg remember I reading this, that poor ML. Thank you still!
I wanted to read the novel because this is so funny, but it only has 3.4 scorn on NU and tags with SA and r*pe. Can someone who’s read the novel confirm if MC/ML is directly involved/affected? It’s tages sl*very which I also don’t read, but in this case it’s more of a historical setting and not a main character being invoked and abused so it’s ”fine” (I know it sounds horrible to say ”fine” but I hope anyone gets it.)Or if this feels like a ”milder” version of the novel and therefor might stay that way.
Okay, so… yeah, the novel does get pretty toxic toward the end. There are some scenes where random side characters try to force themselves on the MC. And the ML — well, he also tries at one point, but as far as I remember it wasn’t successful. Both of them (especially the ML) were really mentally unstable because of everything going on, and the MC was tangled up in a lot of heavy situations that ML couldn't take it anymore.
The slavery tag is from a short arc where the MC saves slaves — it’s not about him being enslaved or abused in that way. As for abuse, that comes more from his family background, so it’s definitely present but in a different context.
Tone-wise, the novel is much more serious compared to the manhwa. The manhwa plays things up for comedy, but the novel leans into darker themes and heavier drama. Honestly, the adaptation changes so much that some of the spoilers I mentioned might not even make it into the manhwa. So yeah… don’t be tempted to read the novel just because the manhwa feels funny — the source material is way more intense
Okay! Thank you so much for your input! I’ll keep it to reading the manhwa only
Hmm now im kinda intrested in this "more serious" part. I can feel in my bones its not a masterpiece but some of the troupes in manhwa are totally my thing
Ok spoiler alert : The novel ending is so bad I wondered if it was written with AI. We're talking cliché plot points, arcs that made no sense and characters that vanishes from the story (like the prince he rescued from slavery ? We've already seen everything in the manwha, he doesn't do anything more in the novel before disappearing, his arc was never completed.), in the novel everything we're currently reading is absolutely pointless and a good story would have cut it out.
I'm reading the manwha hoping they go a different direction but I'm constantly thinking about dropping it because I can't enjoy it properly. So my advice would be : don't read the novel.
Oh my God it comleted entire bingo of bad novel okay thanks a lot i really appreaciate your passion for not reconmending this story. Now I Wonder how it got a manhwa adaptation... also i hope that story will go different way ahhh
