I find it very nice, the art is beautiful, the concept is unique and cool, and seems nice...I just can't with the dialogues.. they're kinda cringey.
If ur hiding ur identity, u shouldn't go around saying those and keep them in ur mind instead. Especially when his mom was talking in the palace halls.
It got plot holes but ofc I'm down for it bcs of the Greek mythology going on
It would be lovely to read more of these but ig we'll have to wait. It's so cute tho, I reread it everytime there's an update and it's been awhile
See? Seee????? Seeeeee??????? Shuraka proving my million dollar essay last chapters to be true fr.
Concubines, line in any other pieces of literature like "The apothecary diaries" are there not only for sex but also for political power of the king. How did y'all think Shuraka survived without backing in a palace filled with people trying to kill him?
I understand the frustration of Shuraka not saying anything but if he did, what difference would it make? Tei still doesn't love him, Tei himself believes Shuraka will need an heir or will meet a girl to replace him eventually, and how will the plot progress if they are all sunshine and rainbows, right???
How is Shuraka, a kid who grew up in a royal family filled with bitches who wanted to kill him the moment he was born be good at communication? More than anything, I think this is more realistic tbh. He's emotionally constipated but he's not abusive bcs of it, is he?
It's not so 1 dimensional, you can't say just "right" or "wrong", it's not one or the other. Just bcs he isn't a green flag of up to the standards that you all expect him to be, doesn't mean he's black or red either. People's whole life can't be defined by those bcs humans are not so linear like that, we change and we grow.
A friend mentioned "People expect Westernized morality in plots in asian royal settings, and turn a blind eye when modern day romances try to gloss over cheating, assault, and other problematic behaviors." And I agree.
Idc if you guys have much anger bcs that's how ur supposed to feel but I hope this doesn't turn into something that will ruin the author's wants to finish this work bcs they already lost 2 of their works and they are trying to get back up with this one. I'm afraid y'all are affecting sales too much as illegal readers complaining about this haha, see y'all same time next week <3
Oh I forgot to mention that Shuraka needs to act like he slept w other people so his enemies don't know that his blood is turning into poison harming him btw. Do y'all know that?? Right?? Right???
Adding more that this, did y'all know that when an emperor or leader dies, their heir of next to the throne can "keep" or their concubines will be past down to the next one, that's up to the next emperor to decide but this is usually done to essentially "protect" these concubines bcs come on, their husband is dead, where tf are they supposed to go?? Plus, like I said, this strengthens the next leader's political power rather than killing them off
Thank youu! I knew chap 19 was gonna update today and some ppl would've read it ahead somewhere so i came to check but all these 'slept with another concubine' 'political pawn' comments scared me. I had full faith in shuraka until last week and was defending him but these comments actually made me think for a moment that he cheated.
I don't mind that he has a harem like as you said, they're there for his political backing but if he EVER slept with any of them (which i sure hope he hasn't otherwise his blood wouldn't be golden), i won't forgive him. But I'm sure it won't happen. It's BWAT after all. I'mma trust in the author than these comments. (⌒▽⌒)
So I went to check it out and it was the first ever chapter...there, Jun was only a faceless mf who Subin going on a date with. Probably just another npc we'll see only one but then...low and behold, he turns into, and I quote "the most important person in my life" says Subin.
It goes to show how much time, circumstances, and learning to love will turns a stranger in to your forever lover. I think this was such a beautiful work of art, a masterpiece, and I'd like to keep this as one of my most painful reads and I wouldn't trade the time I took to read this, to read anything else.
You'll see this in "Boss Bitch Baby" too, the feeling of it not being enough despite being so long. It doesn't feel dragged on or anything of the matter. The creator loves doing their work and it shows
The image of the ml crying and the amount of pain he be going through is so attractive ngl, plus, this is so deliciously written...about how he tries to kill himself from the pain yet he can't ughhhhhhh
He reminds me of Luka from Alien stage, they're dynamic is the same too
I usually stay away from love triangles and the "brother" is such a disgusting shit but I can't. Just praying I survive ts
Whichever God decided to bless me today, thank u sm.
Coz I opened this when it only had 1-3 chapters. Reading chapter 3 expecting that's the end of it but then when I tapped on next, there was an update on not only chap 4 but also chapter 5 by the time I finished chapter 3?!? ƪ(‾.‾“)┐
And I'm still waiting for more. I'll wait as long as it takes guysss thank u sm for the translation
Might as well go buddy buddy with Adrian Agreste, dumb blondes
Who is thatt?? I only know Chase being bffs with the more dumbass Felix Felice
