3.5 stars, art is nice, decent smut, but somehow wasn't that into it

very sweet and fluffy. made me roll my eyes at their obliviousness to their own feelings lol (they started off as friends with benefits first), but it wasn't annoying and got resolved with no drama ie no denial or angst. would recommend. And the smut is hot

ch121.5 mc reincarnates into body of little girl who is abused by her prostitute mother, but at 10yrs old she is sold to her father Duke Castielo. The Castielo family are rumoured to be related to demons, humans have an instinctive fear and hostility towards them, they have superhuman strength and healing, however they are bound by an oath to be loyal to the royal family and each king is entitled to request one thing from the castielos. MC is "mixed blood" as she doesn't possess the characteristic dark hair and red eyes, she has pink eyes and blond hair instead, while the unnatural pink eyes are proof of her heritage, she does not possess superhuman strength or healing, neither does she inspire fear in others, this places her in a unique position where others do not fear her and can interact normally (hence great for diplomacy), but also a target for kidnapping etc due to her vulnerability, especially magicians who would like to experiment on her. The Castielos also have an aversion to humans, but none towards mc who is mixed, hence able to feel love towards her and dote on her lots. ML seems to be MC's first knight/bodyguard, he is kind and gentle towards mc but prior to this he often got into fights and trouble, he is actually the younger son of the Leymonde family which is enemies with the Castielos, something happened and he left the family and joined the Wolves (Castielo knights). MC has long lost elemental powers, she binds to two elemental lords (blue wolf called Alpha, red dragon called End), risk of using elemental powers is to lose yourself and join the elemental world, however mc's castielo blood seems to give her body better durability than most. MC's powers are important as only elementals have the power to rejuvenate barren lands (there are many barren territories that are wasted). Mc was once kidnapped by a magician, a magician slave helped her (well tried to help her), so mc takes her in as her personal magician and named her Anne (red short hair). ML is currently being dumb after developing feelings for MC and also realising she has feelings for him, he dismisses her feeling for him as puppy love, thinking that she doesn't know the real him hence cannot truly love him, which is okay fair enough, but how he solves the problem? He decides to reject mc and leave the castielo family, he hides from mc his background and doesn't let her know that he is going back to inherit the title, his reasoning is that he will show her his true self as a "Leymonde" and that he will be able to measure up to her, and that his position would help him better protect her - fair enough reasons except that he DOESNT TELL HER. Instead he leaves her confused and heartbroken, and hating him. yeah way to go, smart decision there ugh. Love everyone in this story except for ML. Anyway, MC is trying to look for a way to break the oath binding her fam to the royal fam (she needs to locate the vessel that hosts the oath and break it - those bound by the oath cannot break the vessel cannot break it but she is banking on her being mixed blood), she is further motivated to do so due to the suspicions that she is an elemental (because mc revived one of the barren castielo lands), there is risk that the king will use his wish to ask them to hand her over, and this may spark war/hurt her family when they refuse to do so. There are rumours that the royal fam may force an engagement between mc and the crown prince (the empress is obsessed with duke castielo and is kinda delusional wanting to treat mc like her daughter, so her children grew up kinda twisted cause their mom is constantly comparing them to the castielos), mc's plan is to ask ML to pretend to be her fiance and break up with him when things blow over.

it was ok but the characters not really my type/kink?

not too bad but i wish the ml was a little less omipotent, he can fight 10 men by himself, jump down from castle walls, super good engineer (whoops spoiler) and also good cook. mc is a space soldier who got injured, when she wakes up she is in the body of a noblewoman with a scar on her face who was forced to suicide by her younger sister via a curse - sister wants to be crown princess but fear that mc is in her way. the ML picks her up and they find mc's dead body, mc picks up her AI bracelet but lost her gun. ML sends her back to her mother and mc returns back to the academy. MC decides to join the knight order in order to obtain information about her spaceship's location, she bribes her headmaster to allow her to join the test, and managed to lead her team to success despite her frail body by using her AI bracelet to map out the terrain and track the locations of the enemy team and predict weather patterns hence ambushing them successfully. meanwhile the church is trying to assassinate mc again but ml rescues her instead. ML is famous as a crazy/violent person in the academy. Later on it turns out he was the mysterious crown prince who was always hiding his identity. at the coronation ceremony, ml reveals his identity, this leads to gossip and also envy of mc who was previously close to him. the church had planned a rebellion to force the ml to marry mc's sister, but ml had anticipated it and killed the assassins and planted explosives to blow up the enemy troops, foiling the church's plan. in the fight, ml uses mc's missing gun, his familiarity with the weapon frightened mc and she ran away and goes look for her spaceship, but when she finds it, it is too badly damaged and needs an engineer to repair it, she finds out that the engineer who designed her spaceship has the codename Murdock (ml's alias) and smiles like him. ml goes find mc and fixes her spaceship, unfortunately, they still cannot contact the space force, proving that they are in a separate dimension. ml gives mc the royal family heirloom, as a sign of asking to marry her but doesn't actually ask, but tells mc to think over the meaning of it. most unromantic proposal ever but eh i feel like mc agreed because he's good looking, rich and from the same place as her, and also he does most things she asks him to. not sure why ml likes mc other than she is "amusing". why do ml always find the FLs amusing? its kinda condescending -.- like they are pets or children or jesters performing a play. anyway mc also cures her scar and improve her body fitness using the medical tool on the spaceship, goes back and takes revenge on her sis, wows the other court ladies and ends up with ML.

ch92 end of S2 LOL anti hero who casually murders for exp, but his logic for the things he does is so sound yet so wrong its hilarious. MC is a summoned hero who defeated the demon lord but personality rank F because he murdered his party beforehand (his party was a little self entitled, prevented him from gaining exp due to weird morals eg cannot kill baby dragon). Due to this he is sent back to beginning to re-test, with a morality teacher sent to guide him occasionally. MC is worse this time round tbh, he blackmails the king for money and other support - threatening to defect to other countries if they refuse. Goes to black market auction and acquire slave (Porter), and lvl 800+ elf slave, other elves crash the party including the racist ex-slave/elf princess from his prev life, he massacres all the elves for exp incl the princess. Demands compensation from elf kingdom (no survivors so he spins the story his way). Elf prince who is tolerant of humans give MC his magical sword, seems to see through MC. MC goes to meet his "master" aka a slime lol that "taught" him the concept of controlling his nervous system -> total body control. meaning he can regenerate, inc muscle mass, strengthen skin etc. He goes on to look for baby dragon but mother dragon is there instead, dragon rampages across the country while MC picks off all the prey for exp, killing dragon in the end when it collapses from old age - supposedly impossible task that sends the teacher panicking, mc ingests the heart and gain a mysterious skill that is F rank - no idea what it does. MC goes back and kills the knight leader (he bullied MC in past life in the name of training), has Porter execute all the corrupt officials incl the satan worshiper queen and traitor princes, gets Porter to marry the princess to become king. All countries now terrified of MC lol. Mc goes to elf kingdom, kills elf king in "self defence", helping elf prince to throne. MC now goes to demon lord's castle for final fight - but demon lord is making out with the elf queen who was supposedly kidnapped and killed lol. MC defeats demon king and fails again of course LOL, sent back to start, except that another hero from earth is sent with him as well (seig) who is an enthusiastic otaku who wants to save the world! lol MC ruins his rep again by trying to end the drought by killing magic catfish Ululu but ends up causing a flood instead. Seig forms a party of his own and sets off to find the holy sword. using that sword he manages to defeat the elven prince when he kills the elven king who waged war because his daughter was sold as a slave to humans. MC defeats Seig and sets off to find the demon king who tells him that to show his cursed sword to the ancient dragon to find the truth. MC defeats him and fails his character assessment again. 4th round: MC and Seig is summoned again, this time MC is supervised by a trainee teacher. MC just goes straight to kill the demon king on his first day and so manages to pass his assessment, however his graduation was put on hold. He seems to be sent to another dimension where heroes gather. He gains a skill Luck that he upgrades to the point where the universe energy helps him, this enables him to discover an underground city where two chaos elves are trapped, the angels come and attack him trying to free the prisoner, MC defeats them and gains divinity skill. MC then goes to a starter city and wants to steal the prize, he gets mistaken as a saint due to divinity and invited in. Saintress wants him to help convince the prisoners there to reform. MC demands saintess as prize, "reforms" the prisoners into his followers and breaks them out, the angels ride a poison dragon to punish him but MC frees the dragon and brings them to kill them instead, MC divinity skills reach max. He is brought along with the other "heroes/transmigrators" to a empty space and they are to compete with the last 3 rewarded, mc kills all except 2 others. He is now "reset" back to zero but this time he is not a summoned hero but an ordinary villager, his sister is Lanuvel (princess in past life). mc reaches max divinity and starts sacrificing his other skills to break through the limit. Lanuvel gets him to go to the mermaid pond to get the hero sword (sword no3) which contains the spirit of a past hero. he acquires a new companion, the sage, and also recruits a golem maker to make a blue golem for him in order to defeat the red golem created by the society of darkness. he then goes to the training cave and meets a hero of a previous era with two Z level skills (stamina + penetration) and defeats him (but unable to kill due to the effect of the room). he makes it to the last room where he meets the wife of the 1st hero, who informs him the first hero was corrupted and ran to the ends of the world. she asks him to defeat the golem of the 1st hero and take his holy sword's power, this was actually a trick to use the modified holy sword to wipe mc's memories and get him to play the role of the hero and love her, but mc has the skill to prevent memory modification hence was not influenced and absorbed her blessing Z skill instead.
