Can someone put some light on the whole controversy since I was practically living under the rock for past few days
Copy pasting another comment "The story is problematic because it leans on a very old and very obvious trope: enslaved characters with no real agency whose main narrative function is to validate the morality of a white “redeemer.” That’s why people call it a white savior framing not because slavery appears in it, but because of how power and character agency are distributed and the argument that “critics are just the same people who defend X in fiction” is just a deflection with no basis. You don’t get to lump together unrelated audiences to dodge criticism of a specific narrative choice. Disliking racist framing in a story doesn’t automatically map onto whatever unrelated debates you guys want to drag in."
They say since the settings of the story is during the american civil war, one of the characters who’s native american, said something to the other character who is white about being his slave. Which made people angry. Bcs you know history..
Im not too sure myself, but I saw on social media that people were angry due to the slave x master trope, which essentially romanticizes the torture, racism, and opression that were inflicted upon black slaves at this time period. The book could could also be taken out of context (this is just a theory) in later chapters and displayed in such a way that makes it seem like the author promotes these actions. again just a synopsis of what I currently know!!
So I heard someone say somewhere that this relationship is gonna turn into a incestuos one.. which I think it is slowly taking the route of (someone even said the Black snake and the snake inside the egg will fall in love) so if someone really knows anything any spoilers please tell so I can just dropp it
There's a separate novel called 'Beastly' where two of the brothers (Cecil and Cyrus) get together. The novel is their story. People say they're more intense than their parents but I haven't gotten far in the novel yet to see. (●'◡'●)

I mean, it tracks with the kind of tropes already being explored in this main manhwa. That should probably be a blanket warning that it will cover dark tropes. The warning at the very top of each chapter is basically a dead dove: do not eat warning. (●'◡'●)
