Her hair always reminds me of speghetti. Pretty, speghetti, but still. Lol
Anyway, I know Devon takes issue with Kenny and Lou's relationship, but that's actually not necessarily a bad thing for him to be releasing what sex is with someone he trusts and loves. Although it can create a dependency that's unhealthy, Lou is so far abused and traumatized that it's going to be near impossible for him to ever process any emotions normally. He also stopped developing mentally after seeing his parents die and then Judith. And then the person who "saved" him, groomed him, kept him locked away and isolated him without giving him an education or socially adapting him, and then he raped him continously for years. He may never be able to process emotions beyond the confines of the mind of an 8 year old. He'll feel the emotions and have the urges of an adult but he's going to react like a child would. He is, unfortunately, damaged beyond repair psychologically. He may develop some stability, but I doubt Lou will ever be able to be independent. It's really sad what was done, and the effects of it, but this author is portraying that reality very well.
I wanted Jaekyung to win, but only for Dan's sake.
And that stupid skinhead could never beat him. He had to purposefully injur him just to tie. Loser.
I'm only reading the officials (because they're actually better despite some misspellings here and there), and they're almost caught up to the translations so I'm at chpt 61 attgis point.
This is a fantastic story. I have to say though, I'm a little disappointed in Wilhelm's backstory. The author made it seem as though he'd met Rein far earlier than he did. Not only that, there was this whole overshadowing of the gods and I was thinking they were reincarnations of them sent back in time over and over until they fixed whatever went wrong, but that seems to not be the case. I AM curious about Wilhelm having Amaryllis's ring. It doesn't have the stone any more but it's clear that's her ring. He must be a decendant closer than the king's line is.
I also really didn't like the swearing or the use of some slang terms. Like "punk", for example. They don't fit with the story and "fuck", "shit" and "bitch" were not used as swear words or even invented in the period of time this story takes place in...it's also a different world so it really doesn't suit.
Anyway. Besides those minor details, this is a great story! Good plot, actual revenge, love, intrigue and consistent flow and art.
I have to say, I don't think Dietrich is dead. I think he's in a coma somewhere or suffering from amnesia. I really liked him, and death always follows the characters I like so I knew he was gonna disappear somehow. Pesonally, I could never get revenge on someone. I was abused by my brother until I was 13, my stepfather until I was 18 and my mother until I was 23 and I never wanted revenge. I understand how some could want it, sure, but I never wanted it by my own hands. Even now, I just want them to be happy, because being miserable is what made them so miserable towards others. But I'm a big believer in karma and balance and I certainly have a good giggle when it hits them. I'd rather live in peace. I've had enough turmoil for 3 lifetimes and I'm still dealing with the fallout, so I want to take the time I have left on this life and not waste it on petty revenge and upset. Revenge only begets more revenge after all.

So, MH kills NH and is emotionally abusing YJ. I'm guessing it's going to go one of two ways:
1) YJ starts to get closer to the director and they start sort of dating. MH goes batshit and crosses a line with YJ that pushes him further awayand kind of forces HW to take him not (not that he's going to mind), and we're gonna see that HW is a serial killer murdering people and MH comes to save YJ and HW will just out MH as NH's murderer.
Or 2) same basic set up but HW actually turns out to be a good guy and while being sidelined by YJ even though they're interested in one another. MH puts pressure emotionally and physically on YJ but YJ just can't leave him. That's when MH will try to kill HW. He's done it before so why not and he's been doing it this whole time with strangers (maybe people who resemble NH??), so offing HW will be a breeze. But YJ is stuck on HW, having found out MH killed NH and then left after a big blow up. He'll probably kidnap them both (warehouse scene!) and tie up YJ until he says he loves MH and will be with him. But will go to kill HW anyway, because he knows YJ is lying. YJ will jump in front, save HW and HW will either be let go by MH to get YJ medical treatment and MH will disappear and YJ will slip into a coma, or MH will turn himself in and accept punishment for his crimes and YJ will do the whole "I'll wait for you" bs because he's so manipulated by MH.
It could be a mix of the two scenarios but I would be sure it's not one of those two.
Then I'm 6 foot tall. I don't believe those are the officials for a minute. If they are, they need a new translator and cleaner because they are terrible.
They actually are the officials the officials for manhuas are generally not that good, I have no idea why
Omg. I meant scanlation teams. Lol. I have no idea why autocorrect made it Texas. Hahahaha
NO YH CUZ I TOTALLY AGREE WITH HOW OFFICIALS DONT FEEL LIKE READING THE OFFICIAL.i wonder if it's cuz it(manhuas) doesn't really translate well to english. feels stiff
It actually has more to do with the person who is translating versus thr actual literal translation. If the translator can't apply the direct translations to context and then further into the culture of the language they're translating to, then it's no better than Google translate, or an AI, which is, unfortunately, how many officials are being translated now. They're always not being checked for grammatical or spelling errors.
You know, when you have traumatic incidents as a child, in many cases, the child will stop maturing at that age mentally. (If it's a single incident and not a prolonged case of abuse.) Knowlege-wise, they may grow and learn and also grow physically, but emotionally, they'll be stunted. My mother is like that. Her father abandoning the family for another one he created under their nose was really traumatic for her. She was 13. Unfortunately, she went the bad route. She became promiscuous, angry, blamed her mom, was an abusive parent herself, and just was a mean person. And she throws tantrums like a 13 year old. She also has the patience of one, which is to say it's non-existent.
The uke here was abandoned when he was very young. Abandonment issues and the emotional dependency of a child barely out of the toddler stage can create someone like this. He never asks for anything, is a doormat, seems innocent and happy, and will do anything to make sure someone they care about doesn't leave. It's extremely sad. He needs someone to spoil him and allow him to cry and be selfish. I hope Taeseo will do this, but he seems a little disinterested beyond the physical relationship. So far, at least.
This is beyond ridiculous. I love a good psych trope, but this was beyond contradictory and just plain stupid at points. Kohaku is okay with one stalker but not the other. Ten is a pedo and co.pletely obsessed with Kohaku and manipulative. There's zero character depth and development, zero chemistry and the pacing is deplorable. The artwork is the only good thing about this, but I do not recommend this even as a filler.
after reading your comment I’m actually confused on why everybody else is liking it in the comments??
Not everyone has the same taste and I'm pretty critical. But u can see someone who just got into manga liking this. Or someone who's young. Like teenage years
ohh gotcha
why you use logic when reading this ,it's clearly just for entertainment
is ur definition of entertainment sth that depicts and or glorifies rape and pedophiles?
Hey, like I said, I love a good psych trope. But that doesn't mean the story has to be crap. It should make sense and be at least somewhat believable even if it's fantastical. This was poorly done.
IT'S FICTION!!!IF YOU WANT TO READ SERIOUS STORY GO TO SHONEN AI ,GLORIFY WHAT?IF YOU CAN'T ACCEPT THIS DON'T READ YAOI .SHIT HOW MANY RAPIST I NEED TO CURSE?
THIS STORY SURE IS SMUT PLOT AND YOU USE LOGIC IN THIS STORY?THE PLOT ALREADY NOT MAKE ANY SENSE ,HE SUDDENLY CAME AND BROKE THE WINDOW TO SAFE HIM. HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO THINK USING REAL LIFE LOGIC HAH??
Calm down. No need to shout or attack anyone.
the amount of typos, no knowledge of any grammar whatsoever tells me exactly what I need to know about you. merely a child. Yes you are right it’s fiction, but fiction also has to have some boundaries. Author here should’ve approached the sensitive subjects responsibly and with sensitivity. however this author didn’t, the author merely glorified and justified it. If you can’t handle the seriousness that a story can have, then you’re absolutely wrong here.
you can relax, no one is forcing you not to read it, i was asking you a question, didn’t know it would awaken such a reaction but that’s how guys who read stories like that normally react.
Yall are funny
that's not attack ,he said i glorifies rape and pedophile ,which words did it sound like i glorifies rape and pedo .i only said the story doesn't make any sense
now you called me a child, you are so childish talking about grammar stuff .are you here to give lecture to me? so funny. this story doesn't make any sense from the beginning it's the same like the AV . he didn't even resist when seme raped him,did you see that? you think real rape is like that? then you know nothing .
of course author glorified rape and pedo ,i didn't said he/she didn't i said why you use logic when reading this kind of story?why you use real life logic when reading this kind story? .everything doesn't make any sense.from the beginning he lost his job. it's AV PLOT, i can't think this as something serious . and my first comments was for meru21 not for you. you are just a troll
you don't know how much i hate rapist,how dare you said i glorifies rape and pedo. moron
Guys stop. Don't attack one another just because you don't think the same way or have varying opinions. It's okay not to agree, but it's not okay to get personal about it. Debate, but don't argue, please.
not once did I say u glorify rape and pedophiles and why would I, it doesn’t make sense?? Obviously Im talking about the author of the manhwa and if you can’t handle it then you shouldn’t be here. Also go learn english goodness
Im having a stroke reading that, if u wanna debate on something at least learn how to properly make a sentence. And what would I care about if it makes sense or not? Bottom line is the STORY not YOU glorifies rape and pedophiles
No you didn’t say author didn’t, your dumbass thought that you were the one glorifying rape. And girl you gotta be serious, what kind of question is that, in any fiction we always use real life logic because it can help us understand and process the themes and messages presented in the story. By applying real-life logic, we can critically analyze the narrative, characters, and themes, which can enhance our comprehension and appreciation of the story. for example you read about somebody getting raped, because you unintentionally use real life logic, you don’t like the rapist. Thats it, and if you dont want somebody replying to you then don’t comment?
omfg you dumbass please for the love of god go learn english and come back where in gods name did I say you were glorifying rape. Pissing me off. But apparently you don’t hate rapists enough to stop reading shit like that but what do I know
shut up ,stop with your nonsense
what i meant was you can't use real life logic because this plot is hentai plot/porn it's not the same like other stories .if you want to use real life logic it's up to you .i didn't replied to you from the beginning and you just came with your stupid comment. go and find another person to argue .you moron
do i need to ask your permission to read anything?stop with your english lesson .you think you are good ,you fucking bastard .stupid moron ,you talked like you know me .you are just pretending here but you enjoy reading this .you are an animal
shut up you idiot ,stop talking about language .only people like you think you are good .you just want attention,people like you is so disgusting. pretending like you hate rape and pedophiles but you yourself is rapist and pedo .
you having a stroke right?then go and die then
coming from smb who’s enjoying rape and pedophellia
And I said its not up to you to use real life logic because you do use it but unintentionally. And your comment was literally public so I have the right to reply to whatever I want. If you can’t handle people commenting on your shit then consider not commenting.

Were those flames or pheromones??? It was really poorly drawn so I actually can't tell.
Pheromones
Thank you
I was guessing it was considering another person died from too many pheramones and "melted". I wish the author had chosen a different color for Choi's pheromones so as not to give the impression of fire. It was really difficult to figure out.
It gives a hint that none of the furniture etc is blackened. But i agree with you.... make it purple or something. Enough colours on the rainbow 8D
Although the officials are obviously better than the translations on this one, the constant back and forth from past to present is more than a little annoying. It's also not depicted very well, so it can be kind of hard to follow. There are large gaps between present events as well so plot development for present time is lacking while the past seems to be the focus, which is weird. The art is still gorgeous and I'm hoping the whole set up gets more linear rather than jump around so much. I get what the author is going for, but the execution is not great. Some sort of demarcated between flashbacks and the present would benefit this greatly. Like a gray background for the past or something.
