So I did manage to find this complete on a different site, it's a short story, only 12 chapters long, and complete.

In the end, it's a cute story I wish it was longer, even if only up to 20 chapters long.

This skips from ch4-17, but -17 is actually ch1, and ch21 is actually ch5.

Honestly, the story is kind of gross.

Below, there be spoilers...





I'm not even talking about the age gap when I say it's gross, though I do take offense to the author having them consummate their marriage in the new timeline when she's 17, and he's a 30 year old man. If author really wanted that to happen quickly, then have her "vision" happen when she's 17, not 16. And yeah, it's not even a regression story, she has a vision of the future, so she really is a 17 year old, not someone older stuck in a 17 year old body, and ends up sleeping with a 30 year old man.

With stories like this, I'd prefer for the FL to have more time to mature, so I'm usually not even okay with sex at 18, maybe some separation and/ or a time skip so she's in her early 20s, but at minimum I wish it would be 18 years.

But that's beside the point. This girl gets married off to a grown ass man at 7 (9 in the manhwa, so hopefully they'll have the consummate age be 18+) and it's not like no one knows this, but everyone gives this poor young girl, who found herself in a situation she was too young to understand, such a hard time. The story starts when she's around 16, but she's obviously been treated terribly for a long time. I understand the ML distancing himself because he doesn't understand what to do, either, but I wish he'd made some effort to get through to her earlier. I also wish she wasn't cut off from her family the way she was. I've read at least one other story where an older ML marries a child bride for reasons, but they were at least on friendly terms, he didn't ignore her, and she wasn't isolated. Also nothing romantic happens before she's of age (and I think there was some distance between them when she went through puberty). It was years back so I didn't remember it as much, but child bride and adult husband stories CAN be done right without making it gross.

Yeah I can tell this is one of those stories that'll make me feel bad for the og male lead, and the character who gets possessed (this usually gets glossed over, but when their entire existence is so completely disregarded like in that promo onesot, by the FL, unless they're absolutely evil, I just feel bad for them). I'll give it a pass for now, but I might read it after checking out some spoilers.

The cover looks pretty but I can't with this story, it's slow and not all that interesting plus updates seem to have stopped, and I couldn't find spoilers for anything besides the final chapter and side stories.

I read to ch10, skipped to 32 to see how bad that scene is, and... It's honestly not as bad as I worried? Because I've read worse, but also because it's hard to take this story seriously. Why does it reminds me so much of Wattpad stories? ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

It's super cliche, super cheesy and cringey in parts, the art isn't even that great, and if they were going to censor the love scene like that (whiting anything below the waist) they should have just left the scene out altogether.

Great concept, not so great execution. I've seen a lot of gangster bl and this is probably the weakest.

I'm finally at the latest chapter. After reading a few that were mediocre or just plain bad that I had to drop, I'm glad I found this manhwa. I almost didn't read it because I worried it'd be cliche, but it's actually a lot better than I thought.

ML falls in love first, and that's the part I love the most. Also, I'm used to artists drawing awkward profiles of characters, but in this story, the ML looked the most handsome in profile (before the art got better, anyway,) and now he's wearing his hair down almost all the time compared to the beginning.

The story seems to be winding down, so I probably won't have to wait a full year to read the conclusion, but I'm excited to see everything come together. The uploads look consistent and hopefully there won't be any unexpected hiatus.

max2payne0 created a topic of TWO HEIRS

I don't mind the slow burn, but I do wish we got to see the moment the Grand Duke realized he'd fallen in love. I thought he was still in denial but at some point he'd realized his feelings.

I also kind of resent the queen for slapping him when she knows he's under the influence of something. In the first place, hitting someone you know doesn't deserve it is wrong, but a slap to the face especially is done to humiliate more than hurt someone.

I swear some of these stories just get by with pretty art. I'm already sick of the "the female lead was actually evil and the villainess did nothing wrong" trope because they don't leave me satisfied. Like, if you viewed the story of Cinderella from the evil step sister's pov, would Cinderella actually be a total b*tch while the step sis would be an innocent bystander being slandered?

In the books I read, if there's a villainess, there is no "misunderstanding" that she is wrong and the heroine is in the right, if it seems even a little gray area, I won't even like the story, because I'll hate the FL. But since I don't get to read that story and want to see revenge against the og FL, I don't feel like rooting for the villainess to get her revenge, either, I just start out hating the story. Just make it an original story or something instead of using the villainess tag for views!!!

I'm leaving this here so if maybe this story is worth reading, I'll read it later when I'm bored.

This FL takes stupidity to a new level, even without reading the spoilers I could tell she misunderstood, but really? An assassin tells you your fiance wants you dead for no reason and you take their word for it????

max2payne0 created a topic of Dear My Friend

Barely 10 chapters in and FL is a dumbass without a filter, it's not even funny I just get secondhand embarrassment.

I mean, the way to live was pretty simple and she just didn't seem to think of it, it's not causing the characters to not meet, it's keeping a distance from the person who accused her of murder in the first place - just stop being friends with the og FLs, let them fight over the prince and kill each other and just stay away.

Well, I guess the author had to make her quirky AND find some way for her to bump into the prince and catch his interest, but this is basically a crack fic. I'll keep reading because I'm curious, and I have a hard time dropping a story once I've started, but I'll give up if it gets too stupid. I have a long reading list and no time to waste.

Does this have a better translation anywhere? I'll skim through it anyway but I can barely make sense of what's happening.

Finally finished it, and in the end the demons were my favorite characters ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ even Asmodeus who only showed up for like 1 chapter in the side stories (ch100?) and Lerry who's so cute once he has his own body. Also, he's practically the only character who showed any kind of growth, the rest are all one note from beginning to end.

I did like every character because the art was pretty, even the villains/MLs who were hard to hate because they were characters with 0 substance, they each had like 1 character trait and the 3rd guy almost had no presence for the entire first half. They were nice to look at, but they never felt like real people. I swear I mostly focussed on the faces and the clothes because the colors were nice, even the translation didn't always make sense.

The MC was made to be loved by the protagonists, and her, along with the Chamberlain siblings, were Mary Sues. Unlike a lot of people, I don't think that's a bad thing, as long as the overall story is nice I don't care if a character is a Mary Sue, but I am sad we missed out on a romance between Felix and the MC while he was himself the whole time. It was obvious from the beginning he had a crush on her, I don't know how naive the FL is to have completely missed it, but then they have their first time while Felix is a demon and that made me a little sad. I did like demon Felix, but I wish they'd been in 2 completely different stories.

Anyway, the story was interesting enough, and I'm glad I got to read a complete manhwa in one sitting for once, because if I'd had to wait for updates I might have completely forgotten this story.

Ch 62 my boy Ben asking the right questions, WHY do the og male leads even like Claudia? An emperor, a paladin hero, and a Duke, and they could literally have anyone but they're so crazy over one girl that they're willing to risk everything ( ̄へ ̄)

Maybe it's in the story setting that they have to be obsessed with someone because Benjamin is now becoming obsessed with our MC instead. It just makes me feel sorry for them, as much as I hate them, especially the 3rd guy, who's pretty, but barely has any appearance or personality in the story so far.

After the first chapter, I knew it would be painful and skipped the first half, but I still couldn't read all the chapters, I skipped in between from 26 to 54. ML is an ass, I hope she runs off with that guild leader guy or whoever he is, though I'm sad he chopped off his purple hair and dyed it blue, almost thought I was looking at a different character.

On the other hand, her brother is so pretty, and so is Clair, so I might try reading this again just for those two.

So I've just started (literally on ch1)and the premise is literally crazy. And because it's crazy, I don't even care, Benjamin is friggin hot, even though he's a villain I'll just appreciate his looks.
I read a spoiler and the art is pretty so I'll probably be able to read this to the end while enjoying some eye candy, but it's really not my type of story so I won't be taking it too seriously.

The original novel was a tragedy, but I'm glad they didn't make the og FL a b*tch, and our FL isn't ending up with one of the og male leads. I ignore just about everything with that cliche plot.
