Ok, just read the last 2 chaps, Ml knew from the beginning, how mc looked under her robe cuz she's been in ml's world when she was 11(she had an accident and lived his ml's world for a long time but forgor), and she threw the potion at him to keep him awake(it happened in an early chapter), and this action repeated everytime ml regressed so he remembers her face and connected the dots.
I mean, the monsters weren't really harmful, they were just saying ,,shari" all the time, but lmao bro even appeared in her dream and was like ,,I'll find you/you can't run from me" when she was in another dimension, and bro also literally turned into the dragon and was prolly about to also cross over to mc's dimension until she stabbed the "monster core" that was kinda like a connection between their worlds. Then she commited suicide-(that was also the previous way she ended up in ml's dimension, she jumped into han river)
Also, gonna spoil chimera arc as well, mc couldn't attend a group tournament so she snuck in with elf boy and I forgot what went down but ml isolated elf boy cuz he knew he was mc's friend and invited him to the inperial palace in case mc appeared with him (she did, as an apothecary) and emperor kidnapped elf boy and tried to feed him to the chimera underwater but ml appeared and tried to off emporor but emperor threw an insomnia or sleep inducing potion at ml and since ml's addicted to them he went into a coma state (like 30 chapters earlier he was asking mc to go with him as his personal apothecary but mc ran away after leaving him a letter, turns out he was asking cuz he needed potion neutralizers and literally all apothecaries other than mc disappeared cuz mc needed the saint to contact her lmfao) and mc decided to save his ass and grabbed onto him (she was in a dwarf state, changed back into herself right away tho) then the fun part comes, mc finds an easter egg left by old GM which turns out to be Bellisier aka king of races idk aka elf boy? And bro took them to the "imperial library" which had books of ml's memories of all playthroughs and ml woke up (mc gave him potions by kissing him btw) and was acting like he forgor but actually didn't, anyways GM disappeared after saying that the clue to escaping the library was ,,chimera" and ml started to burn the books with his memories but then said ,,don't wake me up again" and went into a coma again, not completely this time tho, and so mc found some book and figured out sacrifice was the way to get out of the library and went ,,sorry bro, forget I ever existed" and offed herself while covering his eyes and after she smooched him. Anyways ml was like noo. Also, he wanted to die, and also he found out mc was also a "stranger" as in a player. In a previous life, he once told his comrades that he keeps regressing, and they were like ,,that's good, keep doing it, u r lucky bro" and ml was like ight I guess u r right until he's had enough so now he has depression- anyways he thought mc would ask him to off himself but she offed herself instead- so ml kinda regained his will to life. We go from black market arc into temple arc into tournament arc into dark forest arc into dragon arc from what I remember. Also, as I mentioned I skipped a lot of details and important parts, it's still fairly interesting (especially when ml actually confesses, like 2 chapters before the end of the novel LMAO), the pacing's not as bad as I make it out to be, trust me bro
Temple arc is literally so long I'm shitting brick thinking how to word it, liv and nise(pope boy) are fooling villagers, liv(saintess)'s acting like she's controlling monsters but it was nise doing that, mc controls a monster or smth and it sprays mushroom spores, it turns out the twins have a mushroom allergy, nise faints and mc just takes him. Then drops him off at the temple after some talking, asked him if he wants to stay with her but he said no (she thinks nise's a girl until literally almost the end of this arc, forgor when tho) and kissed her hands. Nise was worried abt his sis, while he was with mc she cured his allergy, when nise came back to the temple he was scolded for leaving for so long, got beaten up, some time later saint calls for an apothecary, and after giving her a dilluted potion, (cuz she has to stay in the temple to save nise)(also she was the one to put medicine on saintess' rashes and the saint has a scar on the back of her neck) she's getting walked back to her room or smth and meets ml with pope. So ml's like ,,can I borrow her" and the pope says yup, so mc says she's going to treat the saint and the priest walking her back said ,,didn't u just do that?" So mc got dragged into ml's room, they talked, some time later mc tries to go to a village where there's gonna be a monster attack made by nise at pope's order and so it's night, she's hanging out of the window, in the room next to ml cuz he moved her room lmfao, and ml dragged her into his room again, and mc says she was going for a walk, so ml said he'd go with her, and so using an attack artifact she kills nise's monsters, pope gets mad, some sht happens and the tournament's here (liv got killed by their father when she was 12, nise resurrected her by killing 4 ppl, her personality kinda changed). Basically mc couldn't save nise before the tournament cuz of a barrier cuz the quest already started. Liv has a mental breakdown and asks mc for help. That's when mc disguises as a royal and goes is as a noble. Suddenly pope enters and says some sht I forgor, but basically that liv and nise are fake saints (liv said some sht regarding some sht I forgor tho) and so liv pulls out a puppet and so pope brings out a monster (the monster being nise's monster friend, with nise inside) and they fights. And so mc has to pull nise out of the monster and she does it and the top of the stadium scene ensues, bro really thought he was prepared (he brought an army + made the magic barrier), he was tryna persuade mc to "unite their kingdoms" or just to enter the palace for treatment or smth, and that she can run away or stay if she wants after that. I skipped a lot of important details, that's all from me
I mean there's some romance- I just felt that in comparison to other romance manhwas/novels/etc it isn't as much, as it's more focused on the world/events but the romance's still good- the story's also fine- as I mentioned, I skipped many important details, like lots and lots of them and I also could've misunedrstood the mtl, cuz it was confusing af.
also just one last thing, bro tried to bait mc with the sword and wanted to put it on auction, but that didn't work out- so next he'll try to give it as a prize at the tournament (mc gets mad cuz she worked so hard to get him that sword and in her eyes ml's just trying to get rid of it), she gets it back in the end tho cuz elf boy wins the tournament and dedicates the sword to her.
During temple arc mc sells ml potions for the 5 mil he robbed her of-
That's all fr fr fr this time, plz don't drop this just cuz of my interpretation, trust the process
This was unexpected, the mc chooses to actually return to her world after defeating the boss (the dragon was said to be the boss but it was actually death?? or smth, the gm's are actually past heroes of that world, ari - pope, jun - ml, etc.). (ALSO ML REMEMBERS EVERY ''REGRESSION'' AS IN EVERYTIME A ''PLAYER'' PLAYED THE GAME) Mc put a fire barrier between herself and ml (while death was draining her hp) and mc was like ,,put the barrier down right now'' and mc was like ,,ban caissel'' and he was literally banned and disappeard lmfao, same with other heroes (elf, adam, pope) until mc killed both herself and the dragon. Then GMs summoned her to a dark place and talked, it turns out Mc knew that place wasn't a dream but a reality, another dimension. GM's are past heroes, and the current Kaissel + the rest of the crew are reincarnations of them. Then they gave her the choice to go back to her own world, and she did. Before that she unbanned everyone she banned. So, in short what happened next, is that ml made a deal with death(not sure, the dragon/death has smth to do with Kaissel's curse) to cross into Shari's world, and literally looked for her by using other monsters. Anyways, mc defeated monsters sent by ml and decides to off herself cuz ppl called police on her. And then she decides to cross back to ml's world. Then mc looks for him (3 years passed since she killed the dragon and he was in a coma in the black miasma(death) and mc woke him up and ml was like ,,stay with me plz''. Anyways, the elf is a boy, and the pope is also male- tho he's introduced as a female protagonist but it's a man lmfao. There was little to no romance till the last 30 or so chapters.
Ml tried to trap mc during I forgor when, but mc pretended to be from royalty, (during a tournament?) and got herself eaten by pope boy (pope boy got inhaled by his monster friend, moster friend inhaled shari to got her to pope boy) while ml was like NOO. Mc decided to die after saving pope boy (to restart, go o the villlage, she didn't want to be questioned by ml) but bro pulled her out of the moster by force. Anyways, 21th pope got rekt and pope boy became 22th pope. Also liv, pope boy's sis died (she was actuially dead, pope boy ressurected her, she was kinda a bich). And so ml was like ,,do u have a death wish'' and mc was like no lol and ran away after telling ml she'll never see him again. She was low of hp, but ml forced her to drink a potion right after pulling her out of the moster, so she was waiting idk for what but went up the stadium where the tournament took place and as I mentioned was waiting to die. Ml found her and they started talking. Mc was like ,,gotta go'' with a scroll in her hand, and literally the best part of the novel, ml is like ,,actually...'' and says ''u can't use the scroll, there's a barrier here get rekt'' ''you're going to the imperial palace, it's an order'' BROO THAT WAS SO HOT OF HIM, BECAUSE THE NEXT SECOND MC WAS LIKE ''actually...'' AND SHE JUMPED DOWN THE RAILING HOLY SHIT that was like in the middle of the novel, the rest was boring cuz literally almost no romance and mc was like ,,he has no idea who I am'' while ml actually knew lmao (idk since when tho, prolly since she jumped from the railing)
Also, the mtl was hard to understand sometimes, so what I understood is that dragon was afraid of death(black miasma) and that death was the final boss, shari put death to sleep? cuz it can't be killed. Not sure if dragon was death, but when shari tried to kill it death appeard so- Also a fun thing, we get to see ml's pov pretty often (everytime smth major happens). I skipped lots of details but I've been reading the novel for the past 10 hours and am tired af. Deeply disappointed by the lack of romance (it's prolly present in the last 2 chapters, too tired to read them tho) cuz except the few kisses they had, and ml going ,,don't go'' ,,shari'' there's no ,,I love you'' until literally the 209th chapter. Longest wait for a confession ever. The manga will probably last for like 80-110 chapters. I'm off to sleep now
