It was a bit childish and unintuitive but overall decent if you wanna waste time reading something. Only thing that irritated me so much was the names wtf it’s like they took famous names and just shuffled the letters
The protagonist is so irritating i had to drop this at ch 22
You. Can comeback whenever your weak heart is ready for a stubborn mc.
Srsly? I actually find him so satisfying lol. But I guess to each their own
interesting reaction, now I wonder what exactly about him pissed you so much
It was the same pattern whenever he met someone new he would confidently say something that’s supposed to be interesting and then they would laugh and say yeah you’re a genius or interesting or whatever bullshit. Also his smile when he talks like he’s scheming and 2 steps ahead when in reality it would be the most intuitive and childish thing to say or do. My last straw is the girl he met at uni who is supposedly the female interest is 20 yo and he’s in his 40s-50s oh my god. Maybe i’m just a hater but he was annoying
Thank you for answering! I originally read it in January 2024 while I was an absolute mess, so my memory's fuzzy, but all you are saying makes perfect sense.
I get what you mean, after I read "Real Man" which is also about being reborn into the corporate world after dying in the future, I found that this piece while depicting intelligence, lacks thereof and sounds childish. When I read this before I didn't mind it, but after reading a seriously written one (Real Man), it just became obvious.
When she started blaming herself after their first kiss saying she should have fought more and pushed him strongly, it reminded me of the reactions of the victims of sexual assault. My heart ached for her, she is a victim too :(
Fr.. she already suffered enough from when she’s still a little child up until now.
gosh ikr!! Matthias walked away from it w/o even blinking an eye meanwhile my girl legit blamed herself, poured water on herself, couldn't even sleep for few days straight; these scenes legit broke my heart :(
I HATE how i’m always in the MC’s head and reading her repetitive irrelevant thoughts istg even if i skip the whole monologue i find myself missing nothing of the story. They are spoon feeding us the info that we already deduced from the events iITS SO ANNOYING
Can anyone give me recommendations about similar plots. Idc if it’s manhwa or manga or historical or not but anything that has the same enemies to lovers energy pls

It’s really well written and not rushed to the end does anyone know completed well written mahwas like this one? It doesn’t have to be historical but something that actually makes sense and have good characters not the 2d ones we usually see in this genre
I think ceres is related to the royal family, probably a prince
He's the crown prince or the first prince.
I thought so but is that confirmed?
Yes
okay i was calmly reading then i found your comment thank you for the spoiling (=・ω・=)
You're welcome. I have spoilers from the spoiler forum.
This spoiler is about the third prince's mother
she was a priest, while she was on the front of the battlefield she helped the injured second prince and how i understood it she got used by the prince and got pregnant by him. After having the child she tried to contact the second prince but instead of helping he tried to assassinate her. She fled and found the emperor. The emperor was amused by the development and took her to the palace, protected her from his son the second prince and made her and her son his fake wife (Empress, well if you could call her that I think she wasn’t formally announced as an empress but people knew her as the mistress of the emperor I guess.) and fake son (third son of the emperor). She wants the second prince’s death because if the second prince becomes emperor she and her son would probably die by his hands immediately.
And this spoiler is about the emperor..
He uses people like a chess piece just to amuse himself he took care of her fake wife and fake son (Empress/ fake mistress and the third prince) he likes to have some drama, he wanted to watch the princes fight over the throne. He doesn’t have any kind of feelings for them at all. After the first prince (ML of course) returns he is just happy to have another chess piece to play with, he enjoyed the situation. He never cared about the first prince’s disappearance never tried to search for him at all. He is annoying, a nerve racking person
noo waaay it makes sense now why the third prince have the same look as second prince
and also fl felt deja vu for a while
Remember the chapter where FL and Ceres watched the parade of the second prince (?). FL thought that the second prince and the third prince are really look alike, that's because they're father and son. Ml is the third prince's uncle
that's a plot twist wooow
Hold on I think I missed the scene where the prince appeared
Am i the only one who feels certain dialogues and monotonous of the fl are being unnecessarily repeated!!! Like the fact the 8th battalion members joined in their childhood it was mentioned twice and the second time the fl said it as if it was something new. Also ceramic scenes are unnecessarily longer than it needs to be. But so far so good i would do anything for our precious ceres(≧∀≦)
It was enjoyable but I couldn’t help but notice how the adaptation missed a lot of stuff from the novel when i’m not even sure if this work has a novel or not. I felt like a lot of events were missing or summarized but generally it was a good read
