The story has a slow pacing but the author let it flow so well. I made the right decision reading it on a lazy weekend.
Especially now that a car crash scene has happened. I don't watch kdramas as I used to but I remember there is often some type of vehicular accidents in some of them.
My thoughts exactly and I don't watch kdramas either xd
I'm reminded of the bitter reality that many middle eastern countries are unaccepting of and even criminalize same sex relationships due to the influence of good ol western colonization. Hoping that the real world will catch up to the progressive advancement in this fictional story.
The way this reverberated in my sould almost broke down for a sec
We live in a cruel world but let's not lose hope. Many good ppl out there are constantly and bravely advocating and fighting for equality.
Agreed I hope it's better for the generations after us
I thought the title reads as orgy instead of ogre lmao. Anyway, the love interest kinda looks like nagao from njsj, so pretty
Took me this long to realize how the love interest is making himself out to be the necessary evil in order to suppress an uprising and stabilize the kingdom. In a way, it reminds me of Lelouch but they just have different goals.
It’s really making me wonder if he keep MC around so someone who deserves revenge can kill him when all his work is done. He seems to have a strong will to live going off when he talked about being a soldier but would he really keep around someone he knows wants to kill him just for sex if he wasn’t on some level okay with it?
Ohhhh wait that's a nice theory. While he doesn't look like the type to off himself, he comes across as someone who has this "noble" notion of redeeming himself from the sins he has committed through death, at least to me. But hey, who knows what the author is cooking? Only time will tell.
From what I see, having the mc as his somewhat of a concubine comes across as a typical "keep your friends close and your enemies closer" type of thing, especially when he has an inkling that the mc is more intelligent and cunning than he lets on. If he already has an idea that the mc is a mole, he will likely use him to uncover other traitors who are plotting against him.
This sex scene is so different from the many mangas where it looks so forced and rushed. The main characters interactions felt so natural. They took their time prepping and they communicated their worries and reassurances clearly. I kinda felt like it was intrusive of me to read through their sex scene because of how intimate it is.
similar to that love interest from the manga Kakine to Keidai except he was able to rein his dark desires in.
"I want them to marry a nice *insert opposite sex* and have children like the rest of everyone." as if that is a foolproof blueprint to happiness. As someone who's living in a province, I've been told this many times and I die inside everytime an old folk says this to me. I'm glad the love interest didn't hear what they said.
I'm glad the love interest didn't hear what those elders have to say, as they can have a nice day of STFU!!
Yeah, same. I do get why many elderlies tend to have a conservative worldview but dang sometimes it just really gets tiresome.
It really is, as they still stuck in the 70s or some shite like that. But yes it's just very tiresome to deal with the elderlies always saying to the queer person as get married with the opposite sex and have children as it be just forcing the queer person that the queer person does not want lol
Yeah, the ones I especially dislike are those who refuse to understand even when you already explained things to them. Also, it's so tedious when queer ppl are often pressured to explain why we don't want to participate in heteronormative things. Like just leave us alone please!!! Live your happy life the way you want it and we will live out happy lives the way we want it.
Big exactly to this right there 1000%!!! Those kind of people will never understand what queer ppl went through and the annoying ones who push heteronormative things onto queer ppl are the worst kind of ppl you'll see there!!
I'm starting to ship him with the mc. ( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Also yikes to the love interest. A man as rich as he is could take time off work to be with the mc. He should be making that effort instead of acting all jealous. Idk if it isn't obvious to him that the mc doesn't want to impose on him given the nature of their marriage.
