Tyrant's Tranquilizer

Ongoing | 포기븐 | 2019 released

I’m on the fence about this one. It definitely has an interesting premise, but I don’t know if I want to continue it. Unsubscribed but not dropped. Summary: after bad mouthing the author of the book she was reading due to its terrible ending, MC is reincarnated as Amelie, a witch whose death was the catalyst for the novel! Since she’s a witch, she’ll train her magic and hopefully escape death from that tyrant ruler! And maybe find a way to go back home..? Idk Spoiler alert: she really finished that novel and the author said “then why don’t you make a better ending” lmao! Talk about PETTY! Ah! Side note: the emperor is looking for a witch bc he learned 20 years prior that a witch would appear in 20 years that could help him get rid of the calamity/demon sealed inside him! That’s where MC comes in… she wants to stop this calamity and return home

Keep wearing the mask luv. I liked u better as a naive, trusting idiot. The complete 180 personality change was completely unrealistic and took me out of the story… as such I was able to predict this story… only novelupdates forum will tell me if I’m right… (I probably am) EDIT: lmao jk, there’s nothing there, but if that review is anything to go by, I am right Summary: MC is poisoned on her wedding day by the hands of her cousin who wanted the power of the Duchy! Well since MC is a mage she’s able to turn back time a bit and change that fate and get revenge on the cousin that betrayed her! Spoiler alert: this hits all the points in an uninteresting way. ️ Very trusting mc who is brutally betrayed in the first time line ️ After coming back, vows revenge ️ Revenge will come with the help of a contract marriage ️ Of course they fall for each other frfr ️ And finally, bc MC is OP, revenge is a runaway success! There’s nothing here that makes me want to continue reading this particular story when there’s a better one I can read with a similar plot that is not nearly as boring. The one that comes to mind is: The Villainess Needs A Tyrant

Yoooo! Still have volume one on my bookshelf! But when I went to find volume two the next week, the series just wasn’t on the shelves Summary: Nina wants to find a handsome man who is cool and will protect her! But that’s a bit too unrealistic huh? Oh, but there’s a strange candy on her cake..? Blergh— and she accidentally swallowed it bc a car fell from the sky!! Oh.. but the drivers match her criteria for the perfect man..? Ichi (one) or Zero?! Which will Nina (seven) choose!? Spoiler alert: I don’t fucking remember! Hopefully Zero cos I preferred how he and Nina interacted with each other. Anyway, everyone important is named after a number. And, since I’m basing this on memory, idfk if Nina is actually seven…I just know Ichi is one… and zero is obviously zero….
