Are you the nah id win because you're the strongest or are you the stand proud because you're the with this treasure I summon? Always bet on hakari

Please for the love of god no. I’d even prefer no romance at all.

He continued on RR but it’s just reposts

No focus means it exists. You shouldn’t dance around the subject and just add the tag so people know what they’re getting into. Or at least add it in the description. Dammit

So… romance or not? I’ve learned the hard way that if the answer is maybe, it is almost always yes… I don’t want to spend money for premium for the plot to take a turn I don’t want. Don’t let me influence your decision though, just inform me.

This novel was perfectly fine without a romantic fling. I should’ve seen this coming, but please author don’t do any troupe where damsel in distress is in danger and hero has to save her… It gets old

This novel is amazing and terrible at the same time. There are plenty of reviews saying why it’s good or bad so read those for additional context. The poisons in this book are so prevalent, so disgusting that I want to scream and shout but I keep going. Because it’s good. The primary problem? The female lead. Most annoying character in the history of Webnovel. Half of her characterization is screaming and being overall L.O.U.D. That’s all there is in her interactions. Author thinks it lightens up interactions and makes everything dynamic, but fails horribly. she constantly steamrolls her husband and he barely stands up for himself with a hard stance, choosing the softer route which is just pathetic to me. The other half is being a religious nut. She and her nation of female supremacists are just terrible to read about. It’s not like I can’t fathom that females can be superior in some religion in some space and time and the sole premise hurts my masculinity, but why? It’s like seeing “old man” and “ntr” as a tag if you know what I mean. Great animation and story but just not it. Throughout the whole story, Ves acknowledges that there are problematic, but author DELIBERATELY spins the story so that they are constantly supported by him. Like regular people would take a nation that is OBVIOUSLY bad people and set them up to be an enemy, but the complete opposite happens in the story. Their constant emasculation of our Mc just disgusts me, and I acknowledge that it gets better, but getting over that hurdle is just such a big step… I managed to tolerate it because it’s really a good story and thus rated it as so, but read and ignore people, read and ignore.

Right. That was my point that it is completely different and largely a romance novel. It’s nothing like BotDS at all, and readers should be aware of that.

Interesting

It’s ok. I read this expecting the same thing of Birth of the Demonic Sword, and it did not deliver. Half the chapters are romance compared to Noah who has a single minded pursuit and ambition, and his relationship with June doesn’t really dictate everything. This novel on the other hand is different, and his relationship with women takes a frontal role. When the author builds a fan base from a previous novel, readers look to their other works expecting similar themes or developments. If you read this, know it’s not the same as his previous works and is not solely a power fantasy. Read it thinking it’s separate from birth of the demonic sword, and the romance tag that this story has
