    I think the initial pacing of the story, focusing on the development of the protagonists and the romance during the ball and the abduction, was excellent. The ball scene was particularly engaging, with well-executed POVs and solid development of the supporting characters—except for Christopher, who felt a bit generic to me. However, after the introduction of the new world, I noticed a shift away from the main focus, which is the couple and their romance. After the marriage proposal, I felt there was a lack of deeper exploration of the protagonists' thoughts and emotions regarding this new dynamic in their lives. Even though they are in a difficult situation, stranded in a dangerous jungle with little time to truly contemplate their engagement, it would be interesting to see more of their anxieties, fears, and doubts reflected in the narrative. What attracted me most to your work was the idea of a well-developed romance set in a fantasy world. Nowadays, there are many LitRPG and system-based stories with lazy, generic harems, but very few that truly place the couple at the center of the plot. Based on the title, I expected this to be the main focus, and I think the dialogue between the couple in chapter 38 shows that this is the right direction. I hope these observations are helpful for the development of the story. Thank you for your work and for the opportunity to share my perspective!

    It's hard to support any other girl when both the plot and now even the system are making Esme the perfect match. Alicia might be the MC's first blind love, but she's too bossy and empowered. In a relationship, you might ignore the signs because of passion, but after marriage and some time, you realize the hell you've gotten yourself into. Let Alicia go back to her cats on Earth. Lucielle is interested in the MC's power, could she fall for the person behind it? Maybe. But Esme is better developed, with far more layers. Despite having a horrible past, she isn’t traumatized or self-pitying. On the contrary, she only grows stronger. Most importantly, she’s the only one who truly knows the MC, not just a fragment of his personality. Of course, the final decision is up to the author. But for the MC choosing anyone else to feel believable, it would take significant deconstruction of Esme and proper development of other characters, something that hasn’t happened so far. For me, that would be really disappointing. Thank you for your work, it has been an amazing experience, especially after the revelations about the MC's identities.

    It's so satisfying to see so much destruction caused by Rey's stupid secrets. He could have avoided all of this if he hadn't played the role of a manipulative puppeteer. After being petty for 500 chapters, hiding behind secrets and personas, he's finally paying the price—and it's great. I just hope the author doesn’t pull a time-reversal to undo the weight of Rey’s bad choices.

    I’m currently at chapter 199. I started reading mainly because it was labeled as a romance novel and didn’t have a Harem tag in the description. The first five chapters were hard to get through, giving the impression of a shallow story filled with ecchi, but the next 25 chapters surprised me. I was excited to see the development of the MC’s relationship with Liana because she was written with incredible depth. The MC, on the other hand, was an annoying and exhausting brat, but I kept reading for Liana. So, I thought I could just enjoy the MC’s growth and watch the romance unfold, right? Wrong. The story became tedious after chapter 29. Javier’s daily life was repetitive and boring, and it only started getting interesting again around chapter 80, when the MC’s family development began. However, things started getting weird with the introduction of a possible harem. I kept going because, after chapter 23, I really wanted to see how the relationship would develop once the MC reached adulthood, but in the end, I was disappointed. I checked the comments and found the author’s confirmation that this is, indeed, a Harem novel. I appreciate the author for their work. I was just disappointed with the direction the story is taking regarding Liana, but I plan to return once the novel is further along to check out the MC's adult life. Thank you, and congratulations on your work!

    Disappointing, isn't it? In the absence of a Harem Tag, I read up to chapter 199, but things were getting really weird. Everything seems to be heading towards a harem, so I came to the comments and found the author's response.

    Really, it's getting tiring, he is becoming the biggest flaw of the story.

    There won't be a harem, right?

    Wow, chapter 220 and still at 11 years old? Thanks for letting me know, I'm on chapter 68 and already feel like the story is dragging.
