Takomika

If you go back a few chapters, like when they were on the ship, Karas was literally asking everyone what he was supposed to do with his feelings and how he was supposed to act. His whole life has been nothing but cruelty, abuse, and war. He even spent years on the battlefield. The only warmth he ever experienced was during the two months he spent with Abel and he was only 8 years old.

All I’m saying is that neither of them knows anything about intimacy. Abel grew up isolated in the mountains and died at a very young age. He never had any romantic or sexual experience because he spent his entire life training to become a Regas. Karas, on the other hand, grew up being abused, manipulated, and surrounded by people who were constantly trying to kill him.

Again, this isn’t me defending or excusing Karas’ actions. Lack of consent is never okay. I’m just saying that both of them are products of the lives they were forced to live, and that context matters when you're trying to understand their characters.

Karas has been scared the shit out of me since when he thought his regas was gone I really hope this story won't get downfall and so is there an actual novel of this manhwa?

Yes.

The manhwa adaptation made the story way more comedic than it was originally meant to be. Sure, the novel has funny moments too, and the artist did an amazing job drawing the characters and bringing out their personalities. But since they removed a lot of the dark and r-rated scenes, manhwa readers end up getting caught off guard by what happens later. That's why I highly recommend reading the novel.

Readers also tend to forget Karas is not just from the lineage of those who are blessed with the Dragon Blood, he IS the dragon incarnate in human form. That's what separates him from the rest of his lineage. Karas IS a Dragon yet the readers hold him to the moral standards of human.

I can't stress enough how lucky the kingdom, the people, the soldiers, the council, basically ALL of them that Karas didn't burn them all because he got bored.

I'm in no way excusing assault in any way, shape or form but the fact that Karas holds himself back for Abel in more ways than one is a miracle in itself. Even the Regas should not have this impact on the mighty dragon, and a Dragon who grew up experiencing humanity's cruelty at its peak at that, yet Karas just let's Abel's moral, a human moral at that, to have its way with what Karas deemed as nothing more than inconvenience (the inconvenience in this context being basically EVERYTHING that is not Abel)

Yall can keep this mindset until the actual rape happens.
Yes Karas a bad childhood and doesn’t know a lot but so does other people who don’t do shit Kara’s has done (which is murder and rape).

Different genre Karas isn't human murdering is common in this war stuff keeps in mind nobody in this comment justified his actions they're just want you to be more considering of the situation I got spoiled Karas wasn't raped Abel but SA and yes that's not any better

Abel didn’t get greypd, ffs. I finished reading the novel a long time ago. But there was deff greyp in this story and it won’t happen to Abel.

There’s difference between killing people in war vs killing innocent people
Are we going to forget the family he slaughtered and was willingly gonna kill the baby?
Don’t forget that it was thanks to Kara’s drugging all the nobles that the guy with the black blood in his system ‘s son got killed by his mother.
Karas did raped Abel? Are you a novel reader

Yes he did???
Are we forgetting that he made Abel butt bleed the first time they had sex and Abel kept telling him to stop plenty of times but he refused.
You can blame it on lack of experience but it doesnt change that Abel was in pain and he DID NOT want karas to continue
Abel never consented in having sex with Kara’s, in fact in all of his sex scenes with him he always says stop.

He asked Karas to stop because he was bleeding and in pain, but for the thousandth time, Karas doesn't have human morals. Human morals. What part of that are you not understanding?

And for goodness' sake, this happens in almost every bl. When penetration hurts, the uke tells the seme to stop because it hurts without proper preparation. Now imagine that in a medieval setting where both of them had little to no understanding of sex. Their first time, they were both completely clueless especially Karas, who was completely overwhelmed by desire in that moment.

And even until the very end of the novel, they were still naive and never fully clarified or confessed their feelings to each other.

On top of that, we're talking about a dragon incarnate with zero human morals. No one ever taught him about consent, kindness, empathy, or basic human decency. He spent years at war, surrounded by nothing but cruelty. But AGAIN, no one is defending Karas or saying what he did was okay. Explaining why a character acts the way they do is not the same as justifying their actions.


As for the family, Karas killed them because they were evil. They supported the Duke behind the scenes for years, enabled all of his crimes, and happily enjoyed the benefits that came with it. That was in the manhwa too. Didn't you read that part? The novel explains it in even more detail than the manhwa.

I'm not a novel reader but I'm planning on reading it since I couldn't find properly sites to read yet I don't mind if you could share the link to the novel
