I can't even tell if this will contain spoilers, but I'll activate the tag regardless. I have so much to say.This novel is an absolute hidden gem. From the writing style to the world-building, everything feels deliberate and immersive. The fight scenes are intense and cinematic, with just the right balance of strategy and emotion. The characters? So well-written that you feel the triumph and heartbreak with them, and we know just enough to be invested, without knowing what to expect.The end of Arc One hit hard. That plot twist was insane—like, perfectly set up and yet completely gutting. You can tell @ProdigySeven planned it all from the beginning with the subtle foreshadowing and themes. KESM deserves all the hype. If you’re not reading this yet, you’re seriously missing out. You're doing yourself a disservice if you haven't read it atleast once.
