Honestly though, the thing I'm caught up on is the fact that this 'demon king' decided to soul exchange while mah man had reached the pinnacle of his carrier by working his ass off like???? You just gonna steal his hard work??? Brotha??? Idk why that pissed me off a little. Imagine working hard for your career, only to get soul transferred into a body that needs to eat a pickle dick as a meal. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
For a yaoi that had such explicit smut scenes it could be called a porno, I cried so much. After ch 5, I already knew something was up with the little hints. I thought he would pass at ch 10 at least but I didn't expect him to die so soon. So, like, the entire time they were fucking from ch 5 onwards, I started crying cause I knew he was already gone. It's so funny thinking about it cause, it was time for gooning but I was crying my eyes out. And then ch 10. The painnnn UGHHHH.
For those who are planning to drop this or were frustrated with the rape scene, please please please read the novel instead. It's quite short, well written and there is NO RAPE. The MC and ML's first time may seem dubious but actually, both knew what they were getting into(I'm trying not to give much info so I hope you get the gist). The novel's author doesn't deserve her work to be diminished cause the adaptation decided on the rape route for reasons only God knows.
The novel is light hearted, funny yet also has major plot points. Pleaseee read it instead and support the novel's author. Don't let this poor representation turn you away from the original work. ┗( T﹏T )┛
There's no rape whatsoever in the novel, the villain only reverse guides mc, but there's no rape, they also skipped and switched multiple scenes from what I've noticed while skimming. For example, mc is kidnapped with ml's younger sibling while buying a cake for his birthday surprise party, at a street. By the time the kidnapping takes place, ml already knows mc has only 3 months to live cuz he found out after a few days (mc said he wants them to live separately, and ml deduced smth has been wrong since mc guided the future-seeing esper so he watches the cctv, then goes back ot their house and talks with him) also mc has no dreams where he's being sexually assaulted by the villain.
Honestly, a few changes is fine cause the novel itself is quite short so I would understand if they wanted to prolong the manhwa and decided to add a few additional details. But, they decided to use the most awful and disturbing plot points for what was a simple, feel good novel. I don't know who was in charge for the manhwa script but I hope they never take charge of another adaptation again. More like, I hope people who use SA as a plot points without bothering to represent it properly, stay away and leave good books alone
This is the third re-upload I've seen of this manhua. The best translations so far is this one : https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/guiding_the_eccentric_tyrant/
It's also uploaded under the name 'Zhong Qing' but the link above has way better translations. The translator put in some serious effort.
I loved it so muchhhh. And although I really wanna read the spin off cause it looks pretty hot....I also reallyyyy wanna see Aoi and Akane punch that jerk Alpha. Like that punch from that other guy was not enough aghhhhhhh. I just feel like I need to see him get beaten up a little( a lot actually) for what he did. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it and I'm looking forward for the spin off~(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ











OH MAH GOSH. THEY DID NOT. WHAT THEHELLYYY. I READ THIS NOVEL. dropped it halfway cause like it was just smut and the religious connotations were uncomfortable for me to read personally. I just checked out the ending and high tailed my way out of there AND THEY MADE A FUCKING MANHWA OUT OF IT???? OUT OF ALL OTHER POSSIBLE NOVELS???? Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
