From the first few chapters when they got older and she's looking through that ball, i already didn't like her. She ruins my experience reading this sadly
Yeah ikr. In the novel too she gets jealous of every girl near him and it’s so annoying. Most of the time with these isekai plots & OP main character, romance just ruins everything for me.
thank you, I shall prepare myself for all that BS(〜￣△￣)〜
Im already getting sad and flashbacks about all that BS（/TДT)/ ╧╧

Yeah, from the first chapter that Tess was introduced in the Academy I didn't like the way it was going. Like how they described Art noticing she looked a lot more mature for her age than others despite still being a child... That's a yikes from me.
Off of topic but I'm also really not liking how almost every single girl Art interacts with starts to fall for him. Like I get he's the "cool good-looking mature guy" but it's ridiculous. Plus they keep bringing up how "good-looking" he is so damn often. And it doesn't help that his best friend is an oblivious woman loving boy who keeps mentioning how much better and more popular Art is compared to him. It's so annoying, I swear.
Seems like it’s a common trope with these kinds of reincarnation/isekai comics where all the girls around MC falls for him and the female characters are usually weak and annoying. Then comes the endless praising of the MC from literally every single person around him. I love OP MCs in comics but I don’t know why this particular one doesn’t appeal to me. There are other comics with OP MCs like Solo Leveling or Second Life Ranker where the MCs are lone wolves and don’t have women falling for them everywhere they go so it’s much more enjoyable to read.

There is romance between the elf childhood friend and the MC (at least in the novel). I am not liking it one bit.
The elf girl is in the same academy as the MC and she is the student council president (she’s a year older than him). There was a fight between students on the first day of school and MC stepped in to stop it but the elf girl appeared and wanted to “maintain the student council president image” so she scolded/lectured the MC about picking fights despite knowing that MC doesn’t pick fights for no reason. MC got angry at this treatment and talked back, saying she doesn’t know what happened between the students.
Then The novel went into the elf girl’s POV and she goes all “ahhh I shouldn’t have done that! We were supposed to have a romantic reunion” blah blah and she also thinks that if MC had said something like “long time no see” or act friendly, she wouldn’t have scolded him. In her internal thoughts, she’s making up excuses and blaming MC, even though later she does admit she was somewhat at fault.
MC also realised he shouldn’t have talked back to her (even though I think he did the right thing. The elf girl scolded him in front of a large crowd of students without knowing what really happened). In the end they both apologised at the same time and they’re back to being friends.
Fast forward to a few days, MC ends up in a class with the elf girl, some other student council people, disciplinary committee students AND the bastard Lucas. The teacher for the class had the students join in teams to fight one another in a match. Long story short, MC got injured trying to protect elf girl and had to go to the hospital/infirmary. MC’s parents and the elf kingdom people visited him to check on him. Elf girl introduces herself to MC’s parents. After everyone left, elf girl came back and asks MC if he could move. MC says he’s too injured to move and elf girl suddenly kissed him and ran away. (why tf are you forcing a kiss on someone who can’t move??????) MC then thinks about the whole thing and thought that he still sees elf girl as a child and he can’t think about dating anyone right now when his priority is keeping his family safe.
After a few days, elf girl and MC met again in a private training room thing and they talked about what happened. MC says he knew that the elf girl had feelings for him and rambled about how they’ve known each other since children and he can’t think of her as anything more.
Elf girl stood up to leave but before that she told the MC that he’s confident in everything that he does because he’s good at it, but he’s not good at confronting his own feelings. She says that in this regard, he is immature and insecure.
After the MC thought for awhile, I don’t know how tf he suddenly changed his mind. He suddenly admits that he isn’t good at relationships and he should go talk to the elf girl.
Basically he tells her that he’s not ready for a relationship right now. And the elf girl is like “right now?” And MC says “Maybe in the future?” Then MC gives a peck on her lips (ugh). I know she’s half joking, but the elf girl asks him if he thought she was going to wait for him because she’s quite popular. Elf girl also says something like “You say that so obviously like I’m going to wait for you. How do I know you’re not going to go off with some other girl?”
So that’s the romance part. The elf girl’s POV and internal monologue is so annoying to read. I dislike her.
If anyone is interested in reading this whole romance bullshit in the novel for yourself, it’s around chapter 50-ish to 60+
