I forgot about this manga for a couple of years and decided to catch up on the story. Good lord nothing has changed! Even at an attempt in inserting a mystery the story is so incredibly flat. As fun as it is seeing the guys and side characters turn even more crazy, it doesn’t feel rewarding with such a flat character. This is like the more boring version of Taking down Death Flags. Even though she doesn’t end up with anyone, Bakarina was a fun protagonist. Mystia is just so BORING. When will authors learn that being a nice doormat characters aren’t interesting unless they have character development. Good fucking god.

“How did he know that a different person took over the body?!” Idk man… maybe the fact that you passed out, dead eye him, monologued a little bit after waking up, and had a whole outfit change. Like wdym “how”? Most telegraphed soul switch ever.

This manhwa cannot end fast enough. I’m purely reading for the other characters but I’m going insane waiting for the ending. This FL is absolutely insufferable. At this point, her tragic backstory can’t… justify whatever is wrong with her. Like at a certain point you gotta go “she’s fucking insane”.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, MAKE IJUN THE ML. DON’T CURSE ME WITH SECOND ML SYNDROME. HE HAS SUCH BETTER POTENTIAL THAN THAT BLACK HAIRED KID.

But I just keep on calling him Arkansas and honestly, it makes this story infinitely more tolerable after the amnesia arc started.

Chanhee yaps too much for a guy who was saved by her three times now. Like I get he is voice of reason but it’s so obnoxious. He’s going to get both of them killed.

I kinda wish he had a more refreshing voice of reason where he tries to reign in her reckless side and not make the boring point of “hur hur murder is bad.” Death Note already did it and did it better.

How the hell does this have 6 star rating??? There’s literally just one chapter bro. Some of y’all have itchy trigger finger. Let a story breath first before spawn camping it.

Bro what? She has complete control over how long she turns into stone and she knows the dude will come to save her. Why would she not just go “I give him a year to save me, that should be enough time.” Like bro, he killed the dragon when he was like 13 or something. Why would she not expect him to come grab her???? Like at this point, the author is yanking our chains to keep us on edge.

This story had me GRIPPED. The beginning can be a little slow but I found Maize to be a compelling character that you want to support and see what happens when she learns the truth that she married the demon king. Then the story beats beginning picking up as you realize the mystery behind everyone’s circumstances and it becomes a real interesting story that you can’t just put down. It becomes *more* than a generic “fake marriage” scenario.

Truthfully, I couldn’t help but think back to Suddenly I became a Crow as both stories have these meta like narratives of beating destiny and being in a happy relationship where the story end with the FMC becomes a temporary divine being that erases the villain. That said, I found this story to be far better than Crow’s. The execution of a lot of Crow’s narrative directions felt flat or ridiculous to me. Ex-soldier is the story that Crow wanted to be.

Of course that’s just my opinion and I know it’s a divisive hot take to make because of how well beloved Crow is for a lot of people. I’m not saying it bad but ex-soldier simply takes the cake for me.

Rambling off topic here but this manhwa reminded me of a dungeon keeper roleplay I did last year. The difference being that my girl was a lich and had way better game than this succubus mc. OP powers, lots of smut, and lots of husbandos. Can’t believe the type of shit my rp partner let me get away with LOL I should go back and re-read our posts history before things ended abruptly
