Dinner with your WIFE (woman you have repressed feeling for, and u in denial, former one night-stand);
Your EX-sidepiece who throw u away like trash but you still have lingering feeling for;
The GAL with hots for u, who previously drugged u, than got engaged to u BFF;
Than your MOTHER!
It's such an awful combination that I don't know how the Duke could eat.
But, yea. Can't really spare him, because it's basically his fault for sending mixed signals to our poor MC. I mean, considering the business aspect (which is almost meaningless at this point) he could've at least told her upfront that the bitch was his ex and that he married her for a deal. Also, he is so an asshole to the just because he is in denial. Wtf
This is like I read a 120+ chapter webnovel on a speedrun.
How should I put it... I feel truly and utterly perplexed? And lots of mixed feeling too!
So like I feel kinda bad for the villain overall. Yeah. That one guy, who eventually become a homucidal maniac because of a bad crush.
He was very cringy, tho. Like, 'descendents, don't fall for the curvy woman tricks!'. Omg, spare me.
The dragon didn't really have much going on for him aside from being the asshole and a femme fatale.
The whole homucidal thingy, well not really his fault, but can’t say he is blameless either. Like, he could've at least prevented his heart from being stolen in the first place. He was an overpowered dragon, the ex-not-ex boyfriend grabby fingers really shouldn't be so all defying.
And the ML, no idea why I feel like the poor kid was a victim from start to finish. Like his one true love turned out to be a fraud, lied blatantly to his face on more than one ocassion. No mercy, absolutely no mercy.
His emotions were trated with indiference most of the time. Than he suddenly has to save the world from his greatgrandfather and clean-up after his crush. His one marriage with dragon is actually a training camp/ no honeymoon. His family house/castle was destroyed too.
Must respect that some people have really bad luck, but bro really isn't the author star-child.
Well, he does get kidnapped at the end and end up sleeping thru the dragon greatest and maybe only declaration of love.
Master / Principal got game. Respect!
Everything was fine an dandy, they were getting it on, all hot and streamy, than I'm hit by the 'sensory voyeurism' like omg why?!? The villain is nut*ing a big one in the corner and happily encouraging everyone to mate. Does this count as NTR? This is so weird.
The art is pretty, tho. Like bold Female MCs. A little weirded by brainwashed/indoctrinated strong minded woman, tho.
So, I got that the seme know he couldn’t trust the bottom, so the whole manga is a bottom punishment arc and revange loop that repeats infinitely. Because the bottom is greedy and wasn't change, a figurative Beast.
The seme kinda has a collection of the bottom skeletons in his attic. Because he can't forgive the bottom. And there is maybe where the story like lost me.
I'm so confused. The back story also has no logic.
Like, ok the bottom and the army killed the serpant, therefore the whole coffin corpse thingy.
But in reality, the serpent didn't die and killed everybody, so where does the seal, coffin and corpse come from??? Did the army kill the serpent during the tributation we didn't see and the serpent got reborn via the Emperor body as a god or something. That's why the seme got two bodies? But than it still makes no sense that there is a coffin and a seal. Who sealed/ killed seme, because the monk got turned into a puppet/ lure after becoming snake food. Also, where does the mansion come from???
I also don't get the part of nine skeleton vs. nine generation if the loop continues and they said the seme is immortal and there seem to be a 10th.
So confusing. So confusing x 100. But I liked it, I guess. Hoping for bonus chapters.<3
I think that some aspects of the story we're added as the chapters kept coming out as the author said the story was supposed to be even shorter and at the end some things don't make sense completely. Also the story is not told in a linear way, using a flashback.
Yu Lang killed the emperor on their first life, it was their original meeting.
I took the story of the serpent and the swordsman as a legend within the story (distorted by time) or as one of the "betrayals".
And that Yu Lang and the monk keep appearing could be attributed to "magic". Yu Lang is a demon (a god) so he could do a lot of things I guess , like keeping more than one form and bodies.
I don't know if this helps you because the story IS confusing.
The second couple is more interesting.
I like both but 2nd couple is more unique. It's like typical angst couple from a "contract marriage with possessive duke of the north" trope but reverse gender
Why is the dialogue bubble from ch. 75 to ch. 80 so weird???
Cuz the group that picked it up uses ai to translate
The Grand Duke looks a bit like Dante fro. DEVIL MAY CRY.
