Nah, the audacity of this man to claim Shu in front of everyone—especially THE EMPRESS AND HER DAUGHTER, WHO ARE TRYING TO KILL SHU EVERY DAMN SECOND. His ignorant ass needs to sit down and fix the MANY problems within and around the royal family before he even thinks about Shu again.
And Shu—she needs to speak up and stop being so nice and accommodating to him. She should look the Emperor in the eye and say, "No. I will not go with you because you can't protect me from the Empress, WHO IS ACTIVELY TRYING TO KILL ME EVEN NOW!"
I can't believe I ever felt bad for this man—nah, all sympathy is gone. No matter what he does from now on, unless he sacrifices his life to save Shu, it's on sight. No mercy, no forgiveness, and every effort of his will be criticized. And he needs to stop acting like he's doing everything for Shu's sake when it's very clear that his actions are just a reflection of his guilt toward her, not love.
He isn't claiming Shu as his daughter because of pure love and the desire for her safety—he's doing it because HE feels guilty, and HE wants to ease that guilt by bringing her back and paying the role of a father when he can't even father his other 2 children properly. Dude can't even go against the Empress. It's like he lives in this freaking bubble while the Empress dances around it and he doesn’t even notice.
Like, dude, come on. You can’t be Shu’s father. You can’t even be a proper king and rule your dang kingdom when the people closest to you are literally planning evil RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU. Damn.
*deep breath* Okay. I feel better now. Sorry, this recent chapter just got me so irked—I needed to rant so badly.

Yeah, no. Everything was good until the Tang girl came in, like the sexualization was way too much for me. Was fine with her crush, thought it was cute the last chapter. A little weird, but nothing to crazy. But this chapter was a lot, lol. Little girl looked like she was having an orgasm every panel and that was not pleasant to watch. I hope she gets better cause I don't really like the idea she's this sexually obsessed so soon.
Other than that, my only other gripe is that MC seems on the fast track to only having female companions. I can get over a harem, but I REALLY want him to have some male friends. Like I get so tired of stories where the MC is hated by every guy. Like come on, he needs some male friendships, make it even. Would make the story so much better. Hope we get to see some male friends later in the story. But yeah, it's an okay story. Will still be reading.
Yeah, no, sorry Camus. I love you as an individual, but as a potential FL (at least now because before I was rooting for you), I cannot stand you. It's because she's showing signs of turning into the classic character type where a developing female character completely loses her personal motivation (and future development) so they can cater ALL their focus towards the ML. Like, girl could have been great, I was so rooting for her in the beginning. Cause yeah, she liked our MC, but it helped her improve, and she still had individual goals outside of her feelings for Vik.
But now, her whole character has been turned into the yandere girlfriend archetype. Like, I'm honestly pretty upset with the direction they went with Camus's character, and it's not even the issue that she changed— cause I do love her current powers and look — it's the reason why and the steps she took to make that change.
Like, I'm so sorry, but if someone dies, I ain't turning into an obsessed edgelord and pushing away my entire FAMILY just so I can look for a way to bring back someone I had a crush on who I believe is dead. Like, her crash out over Vik's believed death was pretty over the top dramatic, in my opinion. She did not have to go all dark and depressed dominatrix on us, at least not ONLY because of homeboy’s death.
She could have changed for so many other, more believable reasons, like for instance, she could have felt the need to grow stronger so this same incident never happens again, and so she could continue to protect the people she still has left. You know, grow stronger and become someone the deceased loved one would be proud to see. But nope, had to throw everything away for one guy and continue to recreate herself so everything about her is about MC. It's just sad. Love you in general, Camus, but they did you dirty by puahing your character into the yandere archetype.
