    My head hurts... Why even bother changing your name?

    "Liu. My name is Liu Ying," Wei Liuying said.

    "She didn't want anyone to recognize her" so she decided that her new name would be the first three letters of her real name. Genius!!

    "Please call me Young Master Liu from now on," Wei Liuying said. There was only one family with Wei surname in the capital city. She didn't want anyone to recognize her if she used that surname.

    I'll never understand this. If the purpose is to hide your identity, why do mc's always use their own names as the basis for their fake names? This author even mentions that Liuying had spent some time considering the situation and this is the best that someone as smart as her could come up with? It is almost like they are trying to be discovered.

    Ying Liu was Wei Liuying's pen name that she picked after some consideration. It was impossible for her to use her real name, so she merely twisted her own name to create a pen name that's suitable for her.

    This is actually two different stories. It starts out as your typical reincarnation of a wronged person story. However, it takes a drastically dark twist towards the end. This twist comes largely out of the blue and changes the story from a semi-light romance to a dark tragedy. Both sections are very well written, but the transition is quite jarring. It you do read this story, do not get too attached to any (and I mean ANY) characters.

    This story was great up until the last few chapters. Why has Lucia turned evil? I know the void has affected her, but why did it not also affect Kyron? When I mentioned that Lucia becoming a demon would be interesting in a previous comment, I was referring to abilities and power source, not nature! This had better be fixed soon!

    Lucia paused for a moment at the door. Their eyes met and both knew without saying, things had changed irrevocably between them. Lucia left without saying another word.

    But he didn't kill her! If Lune is truly dead, this novel will be getting a very bad review...

    Lucia tilted her head to one side. How familiar. Clover's relieved face was an affront to her. Hadn't the scene been just the same for her? Only an exchange never happened. Clover had changed their mind at the last minute.

    So she is turning into a demon? I love the potentials in this new plot line!

    "As I told you before, I don't need to lie. See for yourself. As we speak, your own body is undergoing a transformation. You will be another vessel for the demonic energy of this realm and when that happens, we'll see how long your shallow morals last,"

    They're there for the books the wizard had about the door. She took them or destroyed them right? That would be the only action a person who had at least the intelligence of a monkey would do.

    "Actually, they're here for another reason," Lucia confessed.

    I think he would be a good love interest eventually...

    "Take some interest too…" Adam said that made Adelyn giggle.

    I like this lady a lot! I really, really hope she does not fall victim to the usual fate reserved for mentors of main characters...

    Guess I was wrong! Good to see tropes like that being changed...

    As what Silvester ordered they called the other group and when they were in front of the large door everyone was just looking at it. Why? Because the door won't budge even if all the guys help each other to open it.

    Sorry Adam, it looks like the author wants to use you as canon fodder. The non-protagonist group usually has misfortune in these situations. I don't think you are going to get that spar after all.

    Adelyn, Sir George, Sir Louise and Silvester will be the first group and will explore the west side of the castle and Adam, Sir Edrich, and Sir Izzy will be the ones to search the east side.

    Why is this tactic always used even when they just had a hard fight when they were all together? Do they really think they would have come out of the fight in as good condition if there were only half of the people there? What makes them think that there will be no more difficult fights that would require all of their collective strength?

    "We should split. We need to find the royal room fast. It would be a disaster if we extend the search during the night." Silvester said.

    Doesn't the ring contain Gil?

    I sigh and I leave the black ring and place it on the ground along with my sword.

    I like him as a suitor. I figure she will end up with the Crown Prince, but he is another excellent option.

    "Wha- what I mean is… to be your friend and accomplice… yeah!" he said, standing up abruptly and hiding his red face while he looks around like he was searching for something.

    Okay, this is the last time I will bring up the mess the author makes of pronouns. Hopefully the author will read it. (pronouns are words that are used for people or things without giving a clue as to who or what they are besides gender--he, him, his, her, hers, it, are all pronouns while words that don't answer who but do answer what--doctor, author, etc.--are not pronouns. Here is a surefire way for figuring out which pronoun to use. When you are going to use a pronoun, first use the name of the person in the space where the pronoun would be. In the above example, if we replace the pronoun with a name, the sentence becomes "I'm just Evelyn's escort!" Since Evelyn is a female, we have to use a female pronoun in place of her name. So the correct sentence would be "I'm just her escort!" By the way, she, her, and hers are female pronouns while he, him, and his are male pronouns.

    "I'm just his escort! Sh*t!"

    At this point, I would be disappointed if she ended up with Gab...

    I'm getting a bit tired of Gab's obsession. He is an assistant! If anything more develops, it has to be from her side first. If he cannot understand this, he should be dismissed.

    My thoughts exactly!

    "I really want to kill your husband, Monica! How can he do that to a child?... Monica, how should I approach this broken child?" he sighed.

    Yay! He remembered the training that helped him so much at the beginning!

    He didn't want to waste any time and since he didn't have anything to do. He madly trained. He placed all the importance on the physical strength and continued to exert his body and bring it to its limits after 5-6 hours of training.
