I will be writing a review here today as well! Short story below! Vlad Dracula was also known as Vlad Tepes, Tepes meaning "Impaler" cause, well, that is what he did. The Turks were very frightened of him, calling him "Kazıklı Voyvoda" ("The Impaler Prince"), and mounted his head on the walls of Istanbul, to assure people that he was really dead. Consider the fact this man saw the Turks invading his land, turned to the Turkish prisoners and said 'Well, they aren't doing anything', and created a forest of roughly 30,000 impaled Turkish soldiers. In addition, the name 'Dracula' is derived from dracul, the old Romanian word for dragon. Vlad's father was a knight of the Order of the Dragon, and so Vlad's name means 'son of the dragon'. That's so awesome that if it wasn't true, someone would've had to make it up. Dracul can also mean devil, which also makes it appropriate for anyone who could scare away the Turkish army — and for the demonic imagery Bram Stoker used in his novel several centuries later. His greatest accomplishment, for which the people of modern-day Romania still revere him, was to keep his small, not particularly wealthy or powerful country independent while it was pretty much the front line of a generational war between two powerful civilizations (largely Christian Europe and the largely Muslim Ottoman Empire). Few rulers could have managed that, no matter how clever or how insanely brutal. His ex-Janissary compatriot and co-rebel Scanderbeg got the name that means Lord Alexander, third greatest fighter of the Balkans after Alexander the Great and Pyrrhus, by the Turks. Another associate of Vlad Dracula was János Hunyadi, a Hungarian military figure known as "The White Knight of Wallachia". Even his son was given the name "Corvinus", making his complete name "Matthias the Raven". In Hungary, Hunyadi is known to this day as "Törökverő" (Defeater of Turks), a moniker he gained after turning the tides of the seemingly hopeless Siege of Belgrade and defeated the much more numerous Ottoman army. His son, the aforementioned Matthias Corvinus, who ruled Hungary for several decades, got dubbed "Igazságos Mátyás király" (Righteous King Matthias) after his death, and became reimagined as a folk hero who walks among his people in disguise to put uppity noblemen in their place. In his life, he was actually rather disliked for his harsh taxation of his people to support his numerous military campaigns.

So, like much to be found on this site, the novel is subpar in every standard beside updating stability. I would not recommend reading this novel. It is not offensive, but a very disappointing execution of a very good concept. There are many more novels that are better than this. The overall the concept was very good. A viscous young lady of the imperial family goes after the reincarnated female MC. But the execution of the concept leaves much to be wanted. 3/5 Writing Quality: The writing quality was barely acceptable. It was easy to read with no horrendous grammatical or spelling errors. From a technical standpoint it was average at best. It looked like a grade 8 or 9 wrote it. 4/5 Updating Stability: I wasn’t able to watch the author updates it as they were reading it. In other words I have just read it this hour. Looking at the chapter list it looks like they update it every day, taking weekends for a break. Though this past month or two the updating wasn’t stable. I’m assuming it was because of the holidays so that’s why it is 4/5 instead of 3/5. 2/5 Story Development: The development of the story was very fast paced. The prologue was only 2 chapters. Which may not be a bad thing, but it could have taken 5-10 chapters and had been decently paced. Within the first 2 chapters the first climax was reached. What should’ve taken an entire arc took 2 chapters. That is a very disappointing occurrence. 2/5 Character Design: The design of each character is described in no more than 3 sentences total. For the MC, if the prologue was expanded to about 5-10 chapters instead of 2, we could have had a much more in-depth understanding of the MC before the reincarnation. The “vicious young miss” was only described in those words, we did not have anything to show us how viscous she was. We didn’t have any details about any characters appearance besides “beautiful”. Extremely disappointing to know nothing about any character, let alone the 2 main characters. 2/5 World Background: Again, if the prologue was expanded to 5-10 chapters, we could have had a much better understanding of the novel before anything was changed due to the MC. We were not given a single description about the setting (world, continents, empires, etc...) in any form. This could’ve been explained to us in the first few chapters of the reincarnation. Giving us an overview of the empire they were in, then a slightly more descriptive explanation of the city the MC lives on would have been a exponentially better introduction than the MC “waking up” and greeting the mother who we know nothing about. 1/10 Overall Review: This work leads much to be wanted. The concept, like most, could’ve been very interesting and enticing if the author had any form of competence above a year 9 writing in the middle of mathematics class because of boredom.

My Dear Duke(BL)

On his 20th birthday, Asher's mother confessed something he never expected. After the truth was revealed, she died giving her last blessing to him. That's when Asher found himself all alone, confused about his own identity and worrying about his future. What did she say? -He was someone special? -Someone people would come after? She said he was coming from a very rare but also a very special race called omega where men could get pregnant. Was it real? At first, Asher strictly refused to accept his mother's confession. But in the end, he had to believe it. Because it was the bitter truth. If he was really coming from such a rare race, and had such a special body, did he have to live all his life hiding so he wouldn't get caught and become someone's plaything? Was that the only way to avoid getting the bad ending his father got? Why was he even born as someone like this?! He just wanted a peaceful life. So, it wouldn't be as dangerous as his mother said if he just forgot he was special and lived like a normal person, right? People would not notice. Alas, it's been a long time since people last saw an omega and they must be believing no omega exists now. At least that's what he thought... He thought people might have forgotten about his existence and he would not have to face any problems in the future.  Whether he was special or not, he still became a target. When he was kidnapped and auctioned as a slave, he regretted ignoring his mother's last advice. "Don't trust anyone easily. Your safety is in your hands and protecting yourself is your duty." He could only blame himself and expect for the worst if his special identity was to get revealed and meet the same end as his father did. However, his fate gave him a second chance along with a huge surprise which changed his life for the better. Hopefully, Asher was saved by the so-called 'bloodthirsty monster' duke and brought to his mansion to babysit his spoiled 10-year-old little sister who threw tantrums declaring she wants Asher to pat her head and comfort her. Just to babysit this adorable, little girl.  He was safe. His secret was also secured within himself. Thanks to that chaotic sister and brother, Asher's life slowly took new turns and continued with almost no obstacles...till some point. The surprise? The duke happened to have some kind of a 'strange' illness that had no cure. Not long after when Asher discovered it, he ended up becoming the perfect cure for his illness. But how? -Remember? He was 'special'! Where would his specialty as an omega lead his life to? What kind of mysteries would he have to encounter with this duke wishing comfort from him?  Will the duke's 'strange' illness ever get healed? How would their story flow to that perfect happy ending with the twist of love landing in the middle of their 'just a deal'? ________________ Note:  This story continues in a historical timeline. Similar to omegaverse, but not the same omegaverse universe. Magic, revenge, dukes, royal families, curses, spells, heats, ruts... (The book cover is from Pinterest. Respect to the artist.)
