I'm hooked 😁.
I like how the writer build this story. The lore is established well and with such care. Instead of being lore-dumped at the beginning, the world is introduced *as needed* to the reader, so the reader know enough not to feel disconnected to the context, but not enough to feel like getting a history lesson. In a way, we learn about the world as Fengxi did, and it helps the reader to connect to main characters more. Character relationships are thankfully not rushed. The flow of the story so far (80 chapters in) unfolds in a balanced pace most of the time. The time skips can be a bit jarring, though, when it came to Wenyuan, as interaction with him is limited in exposure and just summed up to the pre-established lore, making connecting with him and his situation a bit hard (on top of the leads being interesting character already, lol).
Also, this novel had the best translation I've read in here (pardon if this is not a translation) so far (at least in lgbt+ category). Barely any typos, weird grammar, or incorrect character ref which kinda bug me out when it happen too often within a chapter. So, I'm really enjoying my time reading.
This is my first review ever, lol. Had to write it because this title deserve it 😁 for the amount of enjoyment I receive. I hope the quality stays until the end, or better yet, improves. Wish you all the best creator!
