Can’t stand cheating plus like the other commented said the plot is cheap
Didnt confused for poly..it’s cheating ..ml had supposedly agreed to sleep w mc only for a child the feelings weren’t in the equation as per the of story ..ml gonna like mc over his husband (the husband who he supposedly loved ) but then he betrays his husband and they’ll part ways (husband ends up with another guy) there’s no poly it’s just cheating in disguise of cheap plot
You are also confusing polygamy for polyamory. A polygamous relationship is where one man has multiple wives. This was more common in a historical context, but is still happening in certain cultures today. But even more common for royalty to have concubines, especially if their first wives did not produce a male heir. Or even taking male concubines after fulfilling their duty with their wife. Iirc in ancient China there was only one emperor who never took a concubine. Cute!
A polyamorous relationship is where all parties are involved with each other.
also, the one saying that the price loves the first husband is mc who read the novel and knows the original mc is thrown away for the first husband, we don't know if in reality the first prince really loves the first husband. for all we know it could be a marriage of convenience there too and he just was ok with forst husband and really hated the original mc. I mean, I'm not gonna deny that the plot seems cheap since my guy here was a pharmacist who knows how to to the jobs of chemists and bothanists and dictors as well. But I don't see the cheating in this first chapter, it's just the worldbuilding
where have I expressed any disagreement that it isn’t polyxyz ? I consistently say “In my perspective” for a reason, I think it’s a form of cheating, albeit a legal one, and I firmly stand by my word in MY perspective. I’m not claiming dat its the definitive definition, nor am I imposing what I think onto anyone else ( unlike someone) It’s simply what I personally think, which is why I’ve chosen to drop the manga
Hantao is an absolute cutie for draping the blanket over our mc, little things like that is really heart warming!!! I’ve noticed Hantao the only one (love interest ?) MC hasn’t managed to dodge yet, and their storyline is developing in such a subtle manner—similar to the dynamics with the brother and the his classmate….I’m rooting for him!!!
The body-switching element felt like an unnecessary twist in the story. I really wanted Sion to have his moment of revenge or at least to settle the score while still in his original form. He went through so much, his demise by getting crushed by a stone with a angel (god?) drawn on was really hurting, it was like a mockery of his faith in god, poor boy …. Switching body trope is one that I most dislik, it’s always frustrating when the mc switches bodies and then seeks vengeance in a new form which usually unsatisfactory bc most of the time the person inflected them pain in the previous life (friend/family member) ..either gets an redemption arc or is a love interest, It always seems like the mc never truly get the closure they deserve after enduring so much in their previous body. The plot and character design are stunning, which makes it all the more disappointing.
But the body switch aspect, though admittedly not very fair on og Sion, is a good highlight of the nature of "God" in this universe. It highlights how disconnected God is to the common folk when even og Sion as the bearer of the stigmata was not heard until his last dying breath all because he wasn't the holy king. His death shows how cruel the nature of God's mercy can be, even to those who bear stigmatas (essentially God's blessings). This isn't a revenge story, if anything Sion taking advantage of Siennas' privilege to steer the course of fate down a brighter path is him stopping the cycle of tragedies that Parvel himself has gone through numerous times in order stop what seemed like a doomed fate. We can also see Sion as Siennas opposing Duke Mayee as his form of self revenge towards the true antagonist of his previous life. Duke Mayee was the instigator of many for the tragedies from his past life so by rebelling against him as Siennas, Sion gets to prevent what went on in his previous life to a certain extent as his form of closure. The whole point of him taking over Siennas' body is that in his previous life he was not born into a fortunate body, but now that he is, not only does God now see and hear him but he is also now not powerless as he has been granted all the tools to forge a better future. Also note, while everyone knows him as "Siennas who suddenly became a competent king" there are people aware that is not Siennas. Parvel and Tatiana saw through him immediately upon first meeting. That's why Tatiana was so amicable to him and why Parvel went from hostile to caring towards him. Another thing to consider is that in this timeline, Sion as he was never existed alongside the tragedies that lead him down to his death in the previous life. This is a far more peaceful timeline. We even know that Parvel had already looked into searching for him before he reincarnated as Siennas.
Sorry for the great wall of text but--
Tldr; Sion being reborn into Siennas' body isn't a bad thing because he isn't helpless anymore and has the power to prevent all the tragedies that plagued his previous life as his form of closure. The whole point of the story is to allow those who wrongfully died in the previous life a chance at a better future whilst actively punishing those who's greed lead to many tragedies. This is an exception of the body switch trope because Sion isn't vengeful, but rather highlights his competence as a holy king, verifying the "what if" of his previous life. That and, confirming the fickle nature of God as deity blinded by his worshipers.
not the fundanshi writer getting his own BL story before the MC
I feel like him and mind reader guy need to team up or smth
I disagree, I think the current approach suits the story better. pairing Mc with the fundanshi and shifting the narrative in that angle would seem too forced imo especially since the story has been told exclusively from the MC perspective up to this point like he is the mc ykno . However, I believe it would work well if the fundanshi ended up with the guy he's about to share a room with, as he fits the typical trope for a BL story (the fundanshi mc in BL).
I just mean they team up against the flags lol. Like I personally don't wanna see the mc become all lame and basic like his world
T-T
I know what you said and I have disagreed, mc shines more as an individual character from the start since the BL world has been narrating from his pov, pairing/ teaming up with the writer would come off as forced, beside unlike the mc, the writer seems to be actively pursuing the flags, almost like he's checking off a box in a typical BL storyline, it was about time he got his own story.
