(May contain spoilers. I guess?) I stopped reading the novel when I was at that part where incarnated WWX was discovered and his harsh past flashes back. (≧∀≦)

it was hard for me too but I decided to keep going, even if it's hard now. just know it have a happy ending and it very good read! really I can't say enough how much good the novel is! please read it until the end.

I really really want to as well, I've seen their fanart of kissing in the tree and I really wanna read to see that and the truth about the past of a perceived villian, (I know it's tragic) but I just can't bring myself to yet (don't know why I take stories so seriously arghg) Maybe if someone tells me the story, even though it wouldn't come near to experiencing it first hand it would be better than sitting around waiting to be brave enough ┐(´д`)┌

Also good on you !!! You're a brave soul to stick till the end. ( ╹▽╹ )

Let's mourn to our coward beings and wish toughen up !!!

it isn't that bad after the whole side characters with the blind man. but I will be honest their story makes me feel so down for a week. but after that, it totally becomes better ^_^ Wei will never be alone again, and that makes me super happy.

Aahh this reminds me, I did leave in the middle of the blind man arc, when they were in the city with the kids, it was so sad !! That's awesome to know !! I can image you must have gotten bittersweet feelings.
I was reading promised Neverland and also left it in the middle. It's a hopeless case haha ✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧

yeas I totally feel you, I hated that arc with the blind man and the girl and that horrible asshole that I don't say his name ╮(￣▽￣)╭ but after this arc, that by the way, to be was kind of pointless to the bigger plot of the story later.
but trust me, after you get over this "arc" with the blind man and horrible murder asshole it will become better. at least to me it did cause Wei ying was the character I wanted to see the most (⌒▽⌒)

that by the way, to me was kind* fix

Ahhh, your words are very reassuring. Makes me want to read it again (*´ω｀*) btw have your the writer's other work, The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System? That's very hilarious and entertaining in the beginning but get batsh*t crazy afterwards haha.
This writer likes to play with the hearts of readers lol

Have you read the*

I'm glad you feel better ^_^ yeas I did read it, it was an okay story, very funny too and I like how strong the MC is. it was shown that it was the writer's first story, but still, it was good for what it is. the only thing I really dislike about this story is the "sex scene" aka borderline rape. I say borderline cause the MC did agree to let the ML do it to him in a way ╮(￣▽￣)╭ but it did happen just cause the MC didn't have any other choice in that time but to submit to ML, and I really didn't like that part.
I think Mo Dao Zu Shi is a masterpiece of this writer, there her form and storytelling come together in an amazing way.
I agree that this writer love playing with our emotions, but it started at least to me way before Mo Dao Zu Shi, in Villain’s Self-Saving System. and some of the jokes come in self saving system come back in Mo dao zu shi XD
I really love this writer though, she really know where to hit where it's heart the most.

Omg!! I did that too! Lololol We’re hopeless beings alright (≧∀≦)

I didn't know it was the writer's first story, thats amazing. I also didn't like the whole, "keeping MC's dead body part" at the time, I thought this ML needs therapy. He's super crazy.
Yes I'm also very particular in dubbing something good and even though I read like? 40% 50% of founder of diabolism, I still couldn't find any faults with it ┐(￣ヘ￣)┌ although I saw it's drama on Netflix which was meh.

Haha, we should go read only tragedy for like month, maybe that'll fix us ╮(＾▽＾)╭

I look up the date when it was published and stuff before I read it, right after I finish the founder of diabolism. I wanted more of this writer stories XD
omg that too, I totally forgot the whole "seving your body parts despite you dead" thing, I totally agree. this ML is just crazy, what else can I say about him.
but the most that bother me is ML kinde rape the MC, kinda ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I don't bother to watch the drama, I try first episode and really didn't like it at all so...hmm ╮(￣▽￣)╭ it just me I guess

Well you would expect in a normal situation, a person would be considerate towards their partner, it's also the partner's fault to disregard themselves for the sake someone's "mental state"
About the drama, alot of plot building and character building points are omitted so it's not that entertaining, at that's how I felt when I saw founder of diabolism （￣へ￣）

yeas I guess you right but I really wish the story won't come to that kind of bad situation that the partner needs to decide between his free will and his partner "mental state" (￣∇￣")
to be honest that drama (live-action) bored me to death, I almost fall asleep in the middle of the first episode. so I know it isn't for me ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Argh !! Ikr ! People call it "love" when it's just obsession. People who are kind would think, this person went through shit, that's why they are like that but they do love me, so I should submit for their sake.
This is a very good representation of real life as sad as it sounds.
Though I wish I had an answer in which everyone would be respected and happy. But that's a very idealistic thought ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Also with the live action, I have the same feelings lol hahah

yeas I agree it is mostly obsession, but I wish it won't go that far has the MC force to submit to him, it's just not healthy. I don't know about it being realistic or not, if it happens in real life I wish this kind of couple will break up and get therapy first.
but since it is a fictional story that supposes to be "romantic" and therapy doesn't exist there for some reason ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I will take it has just fiction romance cliche of yaoi.
LOL same, live-action is just not that good (⌒▽⌒)

True it's not healthy in any way. Even though the ML is at fault, the fact that you as a person knows how much sufferings he went through makes it even harder to tell him off especially when you care about that person. I know none of this is justify his actions but that's the case. If your not strong enough to stand up for yourself or you care more about the other person more than your own well being, you submit.

As far as real life is concerned, what you said is one of the right ways, but don't you think it's so much more complex? Firstly People involved would have to recognize their own faults and admit, most people would fail at this, nobody wants to see their ugly side lol much less admit they are twisted and need help ┐(￣ヘ￣)┌

I mean the ML did hug and save a dead body in his arms for who knows how long ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I just...well I expect more from this MC. I think it's not the character's fault, it's all the "situation" that was messed up and I wish it just didn't happen. I do think the MC care about his own well being, it just the situation didn't let him choose, in a way cause..magic or bs like that.

most people that do therapy do not admit to their faults most of the time, yeas they know they have a problem. the MC know the ML has a problem and in a way, the ML also knows his actions isn't that "healthy" so I think they both will end up in therapy...if it existed in that world, which it isn't for some odd reason ╮(￣▽￣)╭ or the MC would have drag him there and they both would end up doing it together

sorry I'm rumbling now XD

Hahahaha bs. Well I like to read stories to escape reality so these sort of psychological crazy sh*t doesn't sit well with me. I don't think the writer is at fault but what a weird cup of tea would that be to enjoy lol.
Also hahahhahaha I'm sorry you sound so sincere but it's funny to imagine, the MC being like, "you crazy piece of crap come with me !!! " And drags him to a therapy room (￣∇￣")

I also like stories to forget reality, but not that kind of crazy shit of hugging a dead body. that not my thing XD
ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ I know right? I wish it would have happened, like for real. dragging the ML to the therapy and force him to sit down in front of the psychologist and talk about his life omg ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ

Have you read killing stalking? It has the same vibes :( I didn't. More like I couldn't
Hahahaha, we should make a fanfic or doujinshi about this, then it'll be somewhat real (≧∀≦)

yeas, way back when it only has 5 chapters, I stop after like 3 chapters I think. again not my thing and I didn't felt much for the main characters.
if you didn't read yet, you have to read "Incidentally Living Together" it soo good! ヾ(☆▽☆)ヾ(☆▽☆)

The one about the neet? Hahaha I did read it when it came out till the lastest update back then.
I'll try it again. Thanks for the recommendation ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄

yeas I also read it back then, but it finally complete and its soo much better then I thought it would. it isn't perfect of course, but it really good! you welcome ^_^

thats what i’ve been wondering too about the emperor. it just seems very contradictory and confusing honestly.

it is ｡ﾟ(*´□`)ﾟ｡ its the art that is making me want to read more

right?? like man its so unique and it looks amazing. as an artist i adore it. but there is some scenes where the heads are way smaller than usual and it looks unnatural and i can’t help both relate and giggle a bit lol

I took so many screen shots for reference myself. Hahahha I think about making a comic but it's so hard and time consuming QAQ so I would also give a free pass to the author for the amount of effort that goes into it.

honestly same about starting a comic. but skills lack SEVERELY so i can’t even think about that tugykigf

Arghh !! ┐(´д`)┌ You know honestly I just think we are afraid of failing more than the hard work. I've seen so many good comics with average drawing ༎‿༎

ooo maybe!! i’ve never thought about it like that before.

Sorry about assuming from your perspective but that's the case with me lol (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

it’s fine :’))

╮(￣▽￣)╭

She enjoys being a slave. She has more freedom before than being a princess. I know it seems like shes being taken advantage of and shes kinda being thrown around but honestly thats like heaven compared to how she was treated when she was a princess

You're forgetting something, she was a modern woman before who had her own independence and freedom. No matter how much her life is better as a slave, I don't think any previously independent person would accept it.

I honestly think there is a huge aspect of altruism, I know many rich friends who choose to serve and become caregivers and volunteers just because they really love helping out people. I think she sees this slavery as a chance to help people. Like helping the little girl sleep well, or medicine for curing people. It is shown in her character that she is indeed selfless, as she really wanted to save the horse. So it wouldnt matter if she had freedom or not, as long as she was helping people :D

I totally agree, I don't think that Female lead had spent 30-35 years in previous life and then 25 years in new life, when first reading I thought she was never reborn (yeah I didn't check the genre) she accepts everything very quickly and doesn't try to change things or even struggle.
Too bland in my opinion, I have only read 9 chapters till now I'll give it another chance.

I get your point, that can indeed be the case. But don't you think humans are more complex then that? If Chloe wasn't reborn and was just a slave girl, it would make sense but adding an extra layer to her background makes her more complex. She already lived most of her life before and in the flash backs there is no mention of her being a selfless person, she is only worried about her career, so if you show that sort of person being selfless suddenly it would feel unnatural

Oh and not to mention, I appreciate the beauty of the artwork of this manhwa, so that thing alone is making me want to read, although the characters... idk about that..

Sorry, meant to like!

She accepts her slave status may due to her past experience. She don't enjoy her life in the past. Always struggling to past her exams which limits her freedom. Then she finally decided to take a new course of study as veterinarian then finally finish her collage at the age of 30. And she died at the age of 35. In her current life she was born as a slave and other slave are kind to her. That may be the reason she feels comfortable being a slave despite being a modern person before

It probably has to do with the fact that she sees the good in her situation? Why would she get angry at her being a slave when she’s made it very clear that her being a slave was the happiest she’s ever been? Look, slavery isn’t awesome and slaves were not seen as humans but what can she do in her situation? Getting angry won’t change her situation, and Chloe knows that. She acknowledges that people don’t value her and has never had anyone thank her. She recognizes that people don’t value her as a human, but she gets happy when there are people (a over her social class) who trust her and treat her with kindness.

hmm what you said somewhat makes sense, it is a very ideal scenario then. from a realistic point of view (at least in my mind) i would find it very hard to believe that a person would be mentally stable going through such tragedies, but i guess such people exist? they say dumb people are happier because can ignore reality and keep themselves in an illusion ¯_(ツ)_/¯ we just have a difference in opinion then.

I think this has to do with how the comic took out a lot of mature themes from the novel. What you’re saying is true- it’s hard to imagine a person being a happy slave. But, Chloe was born in a country that had relaxing laws for slaves. In the novel, they went more in depth with how Chloe got to do whatever she wanted in Elpasa in contrast to the Dukes kingdom. In the novel, Chloe was in shock that the Dukes kingdom had very harsh rules for slavery, and she was never aware of inhumane slavery.

She also started to regret if it was okay for her to be a slave again. Overall, Chloe wants to live a life that she won’t regret and be happy.

Oh my This has a novel??? Then I can understand why it feels weird here, for the sake of convenience alot of story and character building point must've been omitted. I'll give the novel a try. Thanks you seem like a faithful fan haha

No problem xD.

As an older sister and 25. I can say her hate isn’t unfounded. Its clear that her reborn family expected them to just die off and now after seeing there neglect in physical form feel guilty, they are royals to and have not considered there emotional state in the least.(plus baby bodies don’t get much info, so if the king was kind than to bad. Why would he expect love from 10 minutes of a newborn.) its won’t be hard for a Royal to understand the overbearing eyes it’s more of an annoyance for them but for the siblings it’s like a threat. Sorry isn’t gonna fix what happened and in the body of a child, I find it weird when they act too adult. They are weak and should have signs of ptsd from not only there deaths but abuse from their own mother. They are sane because of how lucky they got to still be family but teens are barely adults and there force back to go though there small bodies again. Thats no different than my mom that was raise to learn to cook and clean and go out by 7. Its dangerous to be too trusting has an adult and it would drive me crazy if I had 5 yr old body again. Everyone is huge and it’s harder to till if someone will hit you or give you a pat. A good thing is that they learn a better understanding of what they can do, unlike most kids or teens that jump ahead to danger. Thou it suck there twins, im 6years older and I found ways to protect my family since I was young but only because I was older.

i mean the dad just gave them names and dipped plus they were getting abused

i didn't see it from the point of an older sibling, i do understand neglect and abuse and the trauma that comes with it but my point is, their personalities were already developed from the life before, their not actually children in their minds. the trauma of abuse should be there granted, but the sentimental value that it is being done by their "so called parents " shouldn't be as they already had parents before. they should've been somewhat indifferent to everyone. maybe later on in the story, we'll know the reason behind their being so emotional to their reborn father and siblings, who knows
