There was some foreshadowing. Not to mention this is a chronic problem from other's perspectives.

Would not be surprised if they set it up. B/c the last was what it was, people are going to get more attached to this kid. Don't know what they are going to do with them but should keep it in mind.

I actually like that he is testing her instead of completely folding with the thought of "everything will be alright".

I couldn't either but ironically the side story jogged my memory.

I love and hate this chapter. I love that she is finally admitting to her feelings but, somehow I get the feeling that she is going to... You know what? Not gonna type that honestly.

How does aquire such dedication and patience?

Don't know how many notifications that sent you but I accidentally fat fingered a bunch. Sorry if there was any trouble.

(I like your drawing and I agree with what lunar said) Now I'm not a drawer/artist by any means, so take this with a grain of salt. There are two ways I could imagine, either color or more distinction. Since you are using a blank white background maybe change it up. Like for e example, taking one of those sheets and putting a whole bunch of smaller "doodles" on it. When you are satisfied, draw something in-between that ties them all together and maybe give some color to the "doodles".

Come down to the comments section after the feels good/wholesome series' chapter end, then all I find is arguments about how many holes one of the characters has. Just turn your brain off and flow with the river of time. That will save you a lot of stress.

I just hoped they genuinely leaned into it instead of just the spiral motion.

I almost died because I read this as I was drinking soda....https://i.postimg.cc/cJZrr7Yy/i.jpgBut yeah, this is my feelings on that movie.

Thanks for finding the short version for me.

Close but not really more like, "Hey, my boss told me to kill your dad with you". To which the response was,"Alright then, I have worked enough overtime already. Let's get this done with." Edit: Formatting issues.

The short version of the long version from what I understand
1. Humanity's Ancestor was a dick. I.e. the females of the ancestral palace were told to not marry so that they could be cauldrons for cultivating or pleasure(not sure if this was confirmed or not but I genuinely believe so)
2. He was trying to get the Stainless on his side this entire time by doing the whole devil you know plot. The ancestor betrayed her and although MC is a deplorable man he didn't betray anyone truly close to him
3. Although most of the time in this series, the heavens chosen are mostly male, MC's previous theory(including mine) is that humanity's Ancestor's greatest opportunity/gift/luck in this round was his younger sister which he has also taken for himself.

He was actively impeding MC's earlier, at least a clear attempt to. If this was one of those play both sides of the aisle things, he would help both sides so that whichever wins he still gets profits.

I'm bad with names so please don't be offended when I ask this, who are they again?

Thanks

Can you please pass the sauce on that second one please?

What method of mutilation do you prefer?https://i.postimg.cc/XNTXHCFh/i.jpg

Could always start something new after work.
