love the story but the last 8 chapters make zero sense. the closer to get the the end the worse the editing gets too. mixing up names and he/she as well as wife/husband. I liked the story but was disappointed with the end. please edit and fix this
can someone sum up the academy arc in a nutshell i dont feel like reading it
I finally found youuuuu
The story is entertaining, but I struggle to empathize with Raiden, despite the author's intention. I've decided to stop reading. I'm not particularly fond of harem genres, but I can tolerate it if it doesn't become intrusive or disrupt the plot. I'd prefer the main character also forms friendships with males, as it feels off when he's constantly surrounded by girls.
However, I cannot connect with Raiden's past due to his own actions after his mother's passing. While I understand the pain he must have felt, his aggressive behavior towards others and treating unrelated individuals poorly is hard for me to sympathize with. On the other hand, Ariel's resilience without resorting to such extreme measures stands in stark contrast, leaving me puzzled by Raiden's actions.
Moreover, the character development feels quite childish, with the female characters lacking depth beyond their connections to the protagonist. They seem like archetypes in a typical harem story, with limited personal traits beyond their roles in relation to the main character. The humor sometimes feels forced and exaggerated, which I find irritating.
In conclusion, while the story may have its moments, the lack of empathy for the main antagonist, shallow characterizations, and forced comedy are major drawbacks for me.
Review first 11 chapters: The chapters are VERY LONG with multiple pages of one scene and is probably why they are broken up. Anyways in terms of plot everything isn’t too overblown and most of the stuff is logical… in any case the very long detailed scenes are honestly pretty boring though I wish the author would just cut out some stuff we don’t need to know everything (Literally first 10 chaps were 100k words) The plot is very slow so I would just wait for more chapters I probably won’t continue to read this because it isn’t my cup of tea especially because the diction doesn’t add up to the long amount of words leading to some very boring rhetoric and sentence structure. Which doesn’t help but anyways if you want to read suggest reading first 10 chaps before deciding maybe 20.
Oh My GOOOD! Please tell me i'm not the only one who hates ye zizi ? Why is she even in the novel since she came it's cleary worse imo..
This is not bl, is it?
Chapter 447??
FANG NING? ... Fang yuan + Bai ning bing
There's actually a chapter missing between chapter 47 and 48. Naturally, the numbering of the chapters after 47 is wrong as a result. If admin sees this message, please rectify it if possible (you may have to source another translator as the chapter is, well, spicy and maybe this translator chose not to add it as a result)
You're also missing a few extras and epilogue stories.
I wish I could slap this mc to death
When I initially began the novel, I thought I mistakenly opened a chapter about the male lead's backyard catching fire – it was quite amusing. Upon realizing it was from the same author, my expectations shifted. The book delves into intricate political intrigue, which might make it a challenging read for those who aren't interested in such themes. However, amidst the societal drama, the characters undergo a gradual development and form a romantic connection, with plenty of heartwarming moments sprinkled throughout.
While I can't provide extensive commentary on the plot, the novel is an easy read with a darker undertone, particularly in the story involving Zhou Zhiqiu. I would have appreciated more depth or resolution for some supporting characters, or perhaps in additional content. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case.
The extra content, however, poses issues. Major spoilers follow:
- The first extra reveals a shocking twist: Ye Youqing's journey wasn't just to an "empty vessel," but a soul exchange, resulting in her being sent back to the future, leaving her partner Zhou Ci Ke behind. The logistics of Zhouqing traveling back again with Ci Ke raise questions about the consequences for ancient Zhouqing and the fate of actress Ci Ke. This revelation angered me due to its suddenness.
- The second extra focuses on Zhou Zhiqiu's backstory, but instead of exploring her future, the author spends two chapters revisiting her past with Shi Li. Knowing that she was destined to marry an unpleasant figure and grieve for years, the sweetness of their beginning becomes bittersweet. The climax, where she regains her memories but still struggles, dampens the overall mood.
In summary, if recommending this novel, I advise stopping after the main story concludes and avoiding the extras. The core narrative is enjoyable, but the additional content detracts from the experience. Overall, the author did a commendable job, though there were some name confusion at the start that improved as the story progressed.
