This is a masterpiece ! a really good one !
one of the few of these manga that i buy the chapters for because i cannot wait to find out what happens next!
Please spoil me about what happens till 21th chap.
read this manga is like watching a movie, so much mystery and twist.... can't wait for next updates ... 🤩
It’s very draggy. A lot of unnecessary art used to create dramatic atmospheres in order to drag out the story.
The main story itself has an interesting premise, it would just take a lot of patience as this manga is doomed to be very long.
People like this one and for the long time I thought that the story was a bit too convoluted... Until I managed to read to chapter 22.
Fine, it's not convoluted, there is enough reasons why and villain didn't left any loopholes... You can have this one. The story is actually good and well written. It took annoyingly long time but... I was being just impatient.
I really like the story. I hope we can read the next part ASAP 🙏
Bruh.........Riddle...Lostarks??
Unpopular opinion: this one was mid. Lots of twists, and melodramatic.
No main character is likeable, to me. No one communicates effectively and everyone does things that are vague and can def be misconstrued/misperceived.
The villain before becoming one has reasons to perceive things the way they do. The victims before becoming one do things they should have handled differently.
I thought that FL behaved immaturely throughout the story. She doesn't necessarily think abt her safety or consequences beyond her current emotions. And FL is too biased towards ML even before fully understanding ML's misdeeds, even if they're from good intentions.
ML is not great. ML is not the worst, but not a green flag imo.
If FLs who are honestly never self-sufficient bother you, you won't like this. Especially those that don't see that abt themselves.
Man, how cp reacted is horrendous, she did not deserve to die, but she was not the best communicator, nor the most caring partner.
She tells him she wants to prove her self-sufficiency and refuse her fiance's help, only to get hella help from his brother? To the point that rumors spread abt the two being lovers? She can't empathize why her fiance would feel hurt and misunderstand? In this case, CP was straightforward abt his feelings, and she was like nah instead of communicating/reassuring/coming up with solutions
I hate that these love stories can be so tragic. There is no need for the Romeo and Juliet type of tragedy in a love story to make it good. Don't misunderstand. I really like this story. I just wish they could love and be with each other the way they truly want and can. Why? It's not real. This is a make-believe story. In real life, love is hard enough with differences. In a fairytale with dragons, elves, humans, time-travel, and so on. Why not just let it be true love? True, beautiful love. I hope these two will be in love with each other and really be happy together at the end of the story. I look forward to what comes next.
Why is this one of the best short stories I’ve ever read
this is such a mess. From the looks of it, her husband was trying to protect her against the crown prince. The crown prince was jealous that he can’t have a mate and get his name (idk the value of the name tho). So his taking it out on the brother that has a mate and an opportunity to get one. Bro grow up.
What a plot twist!!!! All this time, Zeph was the one who was trying to kill her!?! This is nuts!
This sh was actually very good.
Once again the FL Brain rears its idiocy by demanding that she go chase after the person that works for the prince that she's been trying desperately to avoid all so she can reveal her identity to him so he can definitely never reveal it to the very person she's trying to avoid. Is it too much to desperately want just an ounce of common sense in these FLs?
Of course despite all these wonderful MLs pining after her, I'm 100% sure that she'll chose the third prince, because of course she will. Damn my ocd and inability to put down a series once I've started it.
Why do they always add in a sweet 2nd ML like Levi? Why do they have to dangle hope in front of us just to rip it away? I already know I'm going to hate this story, but I'll read it anyways.
I'd say 'Hell yeah!' except I know how these kinds of stories always go. It'll end with her forgiving him and falling in love with him despite everything he put her through. The only reason I still read these types of stories is for the vain hope that maybe one, just once, will be different.
Finally, she sees the truth. Waiting for the next update. Please come soon.
Father is also pretty trash. No arguments will satisfy him. Won't even consider shit
