Ch 5.01 just feel like the author wanted to justify why he should be with raskan, like seriously after the the master treated him well and he wanted to stay with him suddenly making him look like an asshole and whipping him, i feel like the author changed the storyline #-.-)
I'd say it's the other way around, that Arkros started being kind only after Taavi escaped, but before that he wasn't that nice if you go by the first time they are shown having sex, in chapter 1 I think... He was super harsh because Taavi messed up a blow job and was an all around jerk (the text even says Taavi tried to make himself believed he lved him so as not to resent the pain he felt whenever they had sex).
I think it actually makes sense, because at first Taavi just doesn’t thinks about the reasons he shouldn’t stay with his master, so, after the realization who really saved him, he starts to think things over, and his way of thinking about specific things change so these backflashes and the things happening in it aren’t forced or anything, that’s called a plot twist haha :D And also, yes it’s not like he (Arkros) was so nice to begin with xD
Treated him well? Arkros treated Taavi like shit. He may have treated him as a favorite 'slave' but still treated him like a sexual slave and property. Never mind that any sex that is not a choice is rape even if the victim is not screaming. Taavi clearly wasn't free to deny Arkros sex. How is that 'treating well' ? I think it makes sense to show Arkros was a master who punished Taavi to show his power. I am curious to see how Raskin's development goes from here because it's quite possible that he also didn't see Taavi any different from a property when he saved him ... but when he had a chance to take him by force in the desert, he couldn't do it. I am curious to find out if his 'love' for Taavi is more sincere and real that the one that Arkros had it.
Until Arkos let's Tavvi live, we never see him being kind to Tavvi. We only see him through Tavvi's devotion. As far as Tavvi is concerned, Arkos saved him from the prison, and saved him again when he was being sold. Tavvi's devotion isn't genuine... It's a defense mechanism.
When they are having sex, Tavvi even says that he tries to imagine that he loves Arkos, but he knows it isn't true.
And Raskin, despite SAYING cruel things, BEHAVES like he loves Tavvi. He sets him free. He pays a merchant to take Tavvi to safety. Even after he catches Tavvi in the market, Tavvi manages to escape, despite the fact that he has no experience in combat, and Raskin, a seasoned warrior is easily 4 times his size.
I like the way this story is progressing. It's interesting.
I did not really like the first 2 stories but I loved the demon king and the slime ,it was so hot yet adorable, i wish they continue the story ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
Seriously, right? It's a sad state of facts when we like something that far out of the ordinary over something as ordinary as the first two stories.
I think it will end up hassol and gyrein together and donna with minho (⊙…⊙ )
Ive been thinking this for while....
Gyrein doesn't seem to be this much into guys, and Haesol prefers other kind of people. There are too many differences between them , in my opinion.
Agreed
