Reading this brings fresh nostalgia, it reminds me of Assassination Classroom a little, if you liked that anime then I heavily recommend this one for you! Not to say that this is a copy paste, but something to definitely read if you like that kind of trope.
Additionally, this one has its own set of characters and uniqueness, just like how "Ultimate Otaku Teacher" is unique in its own way compared to AC.
The magic systems applied and the politics or hidden politics included in this, as well as the educational system applied in Orion is simple yet well thought out, of course there are still some gaps since we are in the early stages of the manga, but overall it's interesting already. The world building is exceptional despite the lack of information, as we are limited to our mc, unreliable narrator, and the school, or class itself.
The plot of having "Egg Cracking" and how the story progressed from the inevitable future to something more noble such as saving children, but still not letting go of their origin is a star to me.
I also love the details added, like how the magic works, the history with witches, or the star in their eyes.
But most importantly I love the characterization. The uniqueness found in each character is already well known tropes, already seen in a lot of stories and shows like this one, but it never gets old. The spice added in this is the mc himself, who grew to be cold and only wanting praise to see his worth, the interest in this is, such a person was the one who initiated to save the children, hesitant yes, but the fact that he even considered questioning why they became evil was the cherry on top. I love seeing the character growth in this, he's just not there to help guide them, they're guiding him in return too. The detail where they prefer his true self than his act is also wonderful.
There is potential in this manga despite the cliches and tropes, I would love to read more, now that we also have the plot of Shao's star in his eye being odd!
I loved this story, honestly, I thought it was perfect (in its own silly and messed up way) that I kept recommending it to others. Of course I thought it was one of a kind, especially since a female alpha together with a male omega stories are hard to come by, more so if they're the center of the story itself. It was really refreshing, I liked how simple the setting was, but was led in more depth by the characters' past and characterizations.
Of course that doesn't mean that they're all that healthy, spoiler from here; since the omega used a fake compatibility test to show the alpha that they were compatible to have sex, it can easily be ignored, but when you think about faking a compatibility test to get into bed with someone who was sick due to their sex, it's wrong (of course we can argue that he didn't know that time, but either way faking something like that is still wrong). The alpha isn't all that innocent either, after they got together, contractually, because of their baby she started showing signs of being too possessive, even wanting to go and kidnap him and lock him in their house so that he'll stay even after their contract. That is wrong. I liked this story but I can acknowledge that those stuff I've said about them are not romantic in any way, both are unethical and are crimes.
But overall I still liked it when I first read it, I think the problem came when the side stories were published. I was very interested in the dynamic, I thought it was a separate story, like a what if situation, not their past life. Well, the experience was interesting, of course, their dynamic was completely different as well as their characterization, it wasn't that carefree as before and was more realistic on who was rich and who was the commoner. Being clip about this, it was horrific? It's been awhile so, yes, but the omega pretty much went away because he was going in heat, and he didn't want to have a baby, but the alpha due to circumstance, found them and had sex with them, giving the omega an unwanted pregnancy (taking off the cloth that was inside them, which was the condom back in the day) Which I can argue as rape since he didn't want it, but other factors such as pheromones come into play so that's a bit challenging, but non consent either way is rape, I don't consider being pheromone high as being able to give consent, it's like being drunk; additionally the alpha was more awake than the omega despite being affected by pheromones, they were aware of the mark too. Second was after that, when the omega was supposed to travel again, the alpha locked him up in the storage so that he can "think" about the offer of them staying, the omega went away, but had to go back because he was marked and because he became pregnant. Which the alpha was aware of, and used to her advantage; despite efforts from the omega to get the babies aborted. During all this the omega still had mixed feelings of resentment and "love" towards her, till he had to agree to stay till he gives birth. The conclusion of it was that the babies die in his womb, and in his last moments he was begging for his life, saying that the babies were a nuisance and that he didn't love the alpha, but he was denied care because of prejudice and because he was in critical condition, so he died with the babies anyways. And the alpha basically says that, she knows she'll just hurt him in every timeline so it was better for them not to meet at all, but that if ever given the chance, wants to make it up to them, which brings us to the main storyline. Honestly. That was not needed at all, that destroyed the thin layer of tolerance I had. Anyways, I stopped reading and recommending this story after that.

After dying unjustly, Jisoo-han transmigrates into the past, inside the body of a young master from a fallen house. Determined to save his new found family and the people he once read from history books, Wonwha changes the course of history and is titled Huatou, the miracle performing physician.
The story has good world building, and a more realistic flare to the murim world, despite internal energy and the MC's x-ray ability and such being included.
The inclusion of history, politics, and power dynamics within each place and the timeline is magnificent, honestly they're so heavy that it's kind of hard to grasp, but it's all well and worth it.
I especially like the characterization in each character, sometimes it's fast paced or left stagnant, but when they do have character arcs they're so satisfying; they explore the inner workings of each person, personality, motivations, etc.
I also love the inclusion of how the politics of higher powers, especially corrupt ones, affect those in the lower status.
It's really good!
Now for my honest review, or critiques;
As like any other non-fic inclusion to any plot, more so when it's heavily referenced, it's hard to keep up with the important details such as names, titles, places, and time. Especially when said history is not your own, it will be hard to keep up with;
now I'm not saying this to say that that's bad, there's only so much a person can add to explain each detail in creating something like this, the notes were helpful but definitely not enough. Not saying this to discourage anyone from reading, I honestly love this story and will continue reading, but just in case you don't like stories that needs you to pay attention to detail or be mindful for a block of information. . .
One of my actual critiques for this is the pacing for each character, or to say their appearances in each arc. You'll be introduced to a lot of characters who will spend some time with the mc, that'll make you think that they'll be there forever, but in a lot of points they will suddenly disappear without any explanation, and will continue on for a number of chapters, till they suddenly appear again. It's not that much of a problem, but it's definitely some sort of hole to the story's pacing and quality. It will feel a little random, and make you think whether this character or that is even relevant to the story still, since they possessed incredible growth or plot potential before suddenly disappearing.
Second critique or actually no, just a concern, is whether this has a romance twist in it. I'm well aware about the interest the women characters showed towards the mc, but what I'm concerned about is whether it'd be reciprocated. The mc is 35years old more or less, an estimate as he died when he was in his 30s and transmigrated when the body was 15years old or so, and he's now 20. So, if there is romance, I'm hoping that it'd be with someone not that far from his age.

It was cute at first, but then I noticed that he was the only one with shorts and not pants? I tried skimming through the next chapters to hopefully prove me wrong, but after the last panel where the fox sees his underwear and describes it as "children's style" I immediately got the ick. It was too close to shotacon territory, unfortunately.
I don't think I have to explain, this being marked as romance while the manhwa has blatant abuse and borderline human trafficking or modern slavery of sorts is insane.
Read the first chapters, even going as far as skimming through the others, it's blatant Stockholm syndrome. I don't know why some people will lable this as love, it's not, it's sick psychological illnesses is what it is. Kidnapping and threatening him on the first day to draw porn so that he can get erect was literally the whole introduction of their relationship, continues on to him basically getting raped because what standing does he have to even reject him, the power dynamics are not it, and that was literally the plot for awhile. I don't care what sort of character development that guy gets, it's sick, it's even more horrid that he ends up with his abuser.
I tapped on this as a joke, already expecting it to be a porn without plot story, but to have the first chapters already showcasing doctors being unethical, basically molesting and implying rape? And judging from the comments, this goes on in the next chapters with actual rape? Horrific. I'm glad they don't end up together (spoiled by the comments) but was this really necessary? It would've been somewhat good if the molestation and rape was portrayed as something bad, but treating it as something insignificant that never happened or normalizing it as something recurring is sick.
Also there's a user out there that keeps disliking comments that calls out this manhwa for the rape section (being bad), they need to get their history checked because that's insane.
This story, the plot, characters, art, was so beautiful and interesting! It was well written, the psychological aspects of each character as well as their development, not to mention the world building such as abilities and the politics! It was all going good.
Until the 14(?)yo girl classmate was introduced, I forgot her age and what exactly their relationship is due to it being awhile, but it's near. She was introduced as a character that eventually catches feelings for the protagonist, which was ok, had the protagonist not been an adult man in a child's body. I was hopeful when the protagonist said that accepting her feelings would be wrong due to their age difference, but when I checked the ending of the novel, they got married?
Though please do not quote me on this and check for yourself, the novel version I acquired had a horrendous translation, but enough for me to vaguely understand that he got married. Anyways, I didn't continue further, I am not inclined in wasting my time to read pedophilia.
I had tried reading this manhwa for the sole purpose of seeing the children, but in reading only a few chapters I realized that this was nothing but a porn without plot book. There was porn in every form of conflict and achievement, fighting? solve it with sex. Achievement? celebrate with sex. And any other event in the story, even going as far as announcing it to the media. There was a lot of unnecessary smut and publication of it during the plot, everyone basically knew.
I even tried going as far as to read the plot itself, and to be honest it's actually really messed up. I've heard from others that this was a contractual relationship, and I've read the part where the omega tries to run away due to the alpha not going with his word and wanting him to stay for their child, which to me is unethical. It's a contract, though I understand the "romance" included, what fully tripped me off was that the omega was hated for their decision as if their relationship was actually an emotional one. The guilt tripping and gaslighting, as well as the power dynamics included in this makes me want to vomit. I don't know how anyone can read their relationship and call it love, it's borderline Stockholm syndrome and baby trapping.
But I digress, since I couldn't really stomach reading such a thing, I can't account for a lot of other plot sections that might have changed my mind. So although I wouldn't recommend this with anyone, I won't also encourage it.
