Refreshing read
A lot of regression and murim stuff don’t invest in the dialogue/translations to this level. The subtlety in exchanges, foreshadowing, and symbolism are all chefs kiss
The author clearly lays out the predicaments of each individual as if they hope the reader understands that they’re just doing what they can to survive. The empress, blonde prince, ML, etc. They all have a “duty” to protect their loved ones. Even the FL’s mother who wants to di3, but is allegedly waiting for the FL to become an adult. Maybe even Cleo?
Which is why author also keeps highlighting the gap/diff w FL, who has no one, who has no duty. What is the point of all this turmoil? She said she wants to live again, perhaps to “pay” for her sins?
At the end of her first life, she does not find fault with ML and Bibi, so perhaps she just wants to be able to live an autonomous life and not as the naive fool/puppet who wasn’t given a chance and was unlucky to be born in such predicament and forced to live out the way she did.
The narrative seems to be that the “true” villains are the ones who don’t have such a compassionate duty i.e to protect their position (king, Brian?, maybe also Cleo?). Looking forward to Cleo’s back story for more clarity regarding her “duty.”
Aron arc was done well - love the art. Idk how I feel about the MC, I feel like there’s something missing? Lot of cannon fodders to be expected. Plot moves pretty quickly. Story is mainly plot and action, not much depth.
Picked it up and read up to ch 50, not really feeling it, but does the paradigm shift later on? Right now it just seems like a typical OP MC revenge story but it has good reviews so I assume that it gets better? Don’t want to give this up just yet because I am running out of good stuff to read
Names Adam, eve, Gabriel, Isaiah is a good indicator for what role the character plays in the story. This cliffhanger is crazy - is there going to be another crisis where humanity needs Espers again? What message is Isaiah going to convey next chapter? As he is know for being a prophet who gives terrifying judgement warnings
I need you to explain the roles please, I haven’t looked at a bible since I use to go to church with my grandma every Easter…
.
Adam and Eve are known as the first humans created by god which makes sense because eve is the first esper. Isaiah is a prophet of judgement, which shows in the latest chapter where he tells Gabriel to send the message to humanity. Which prob means some damning judgement. Gabriel is known for announcing the birth of Jesus. Which shows in how he was the one to send the message to humanity. We will prob see a lot more references throughout the story.
Thank you so much!
I wonder why author nim made mc the queen and his blonde guy the king lol I feel like it should be the other way around I
It’s cause the queen is the most powerful piece in the game of chess, and at the end of the day the mc was chosen as the key to stop the world ending not mr blondie
Yea but to that point he is the “key” aka the king while the queen is someone with mobility and strength like blonde dude, game is over when king is cornered, similar to how their world is over if the key (MC) is gone
I wonder why author nim made mc the queen and his blonde guy the king lol I feel like it should be the other way around
Guys I’m tryna read ts but this Amy character is making it unbearable, like please don’t tell me she’s the FL and like why was she even included as a character, I feel like her existence is so unnecessary
Saw that Amy is end game yikes, sad to let this one go bc it was pretty decent in the beginning… I’ve seen many flops but none have threw this hard
It’s not even hate it’s just disappointment
At first I disliked Amy, but she had a lot of development. Her and Shrione have chemistry. Its not even forced. Its good. So she grew on me.
