hahaha what a shit story and what a waste of time. I'm glad I just scrolled through the last few chapters because shit ain't worth it. I almost never vote on a story unless it's a masterpiece or a piece of shit that is a disgrace to works of art and I will just say that I definitely gave this the rating it deserves
This story has the same vibes (just vibes, not a copycat at all, which I'm thankful for) as the story about hunters where MC has restoration powers and tried to revive his dead friends in a dungeon but they ended up coming back as zombies so, his goal was to find a way to kill them and then kill himself to find rest....This story's MC has the same vibes since he wants to fulfill his dead comrades' wishes and longs for death himself. I liked that story and this one even a little more
fucking hell, this is tragic. I mean it's not surprising that he died, we all knew that for the present timeline to exist, he must have died before....and it surely wasn't in his sleep at the age of 100 because this story is dramatic like that. I personally had my doubts that asshole blondie had a hand in his death but I didn't think that he directly wanted to kill him to break their contract. I thought at at some point, he wanted to harm ML and MC died either as collateral damage or while saving ML.
On the bright side, shit is going to be lit when MC remembers everything....his biggest guilt is "abandoning his benefactor" and now he can either let go of that or turn it to anger, both work for me as a reader. I just hope he no longer mopes around.
Also, I hope that ML grows to love the peculiar things about Ian that are different from Brian's past. ML definitely loved Brian to death but his relationship with Ian needs work. I don't think that Ian is completely unjustified in the doubt he felt when he knew about the past life thing.
I don't give a shit about their position, what I give a shit about is how their position is used in the story. I mean, this story basically coveys that "the one with the lowest standing at that moment acts meek and typical uke-like" and that bothers me. Also, this just feels like a historical yaoi version of a CEO sexually harrassing and power tripping his secretary.
Maybe as the story goes, I will manage to flesh out this idea more but currently, this is icky all over
It's weird. This story reminds me of another "romance" (supposedly) that centers around a female MC who is the strongest knight in her kingdom and ML is a prince or a duke or whatever and this MC, I kid you not, is built like a One Piece female character.....now, I mean no hate to my boy Eichiro Oda, I grew to love everything about his work of art including the weirdass proportions but I vehemently refuse to believe that a female MC who went through countless wars has 0 scars, 0 callouses, 0 muscle and has boobs that are 4 times the size of her head with a 5 millimetre waist and a big ass that has its own postal code......
But I digress....this story is the yaoi equivalent of that. A small MC who doesn't look strong and has yet to prove to have a single working brain cell is supposed to be the strongest, most talented, smartest detective when dude looks like a lost kid most of the time and makes the worst decisions....yet he is the best. Sure, sure, sure.
Shit better not go down because these are the fucking side stories. Shit already went down in the main story so, I demand shit-free chapters
