'He's not in good terms with Tarasha?' Don chuckled again, it sounded ridiculous to him. 'I thought he was just one of the tools she uses, how can a tool not be in good terms with the master? Does he have a choice to work for her or not?' Don asked, the questions were more like to himself as Aisha remained quiet, staring at his face. 'Why is she keeping him then? Why has she not killed him if he's useless and refuses to work for her?'
"That's because that's my scent."And here's my answer.Hindi ko namalayan na nasa tabi ko na pala siya, his scent made their way in my nose as I inhaled.
This review is current up to chapter 200. I will also do my best to not spoil anything but only provide hints.I want to start with the negative. Thus far, the only problem I have with this story is the MC is a bit too lax. The MC joins a new school who do some…questionable things for recruitment. After something quite traumatic, he is essentially perfectly okay with being someone’s experiment. I don’t have a problem with how it played out as it played out well, but I wish the MC was more hesitant, questioning, and that more inner monologue was shown after he was recruited to the school to show more depth to how he was feeling and justify a bit more why he agreed to do some of the things he did.Now for the positive, I love how the world is being built. We are 200 chapters in and the setting for the world has been established but there is still a huge amount of mystery surrounding everything. The school the MC is attending also actually has some depth to it and doesnt feel just randomly thrown together.As for the MC himself, he isnt necessarily a pushover but he won’t seek out trouble either. As stated before, he is a bit too “go with the flow” but he does have a bit of decisive ruthlessness in him. The side characters have some personality to them but they haven’t been explored in extreme depth as of yet.Finally, for those wondering about romance, there’s nothing yet. There are a couple of potential partners but nothing concrete. One of my own pet peeves is I despise when romance is forced into a story through some unfathomable coincidense and it just magically works out. So far, there’s signs there are going to be romance but it doesn’t appear as if it’s just going to be thrown into the story randomly, which is a huge plus point in my book.Overall, I highly recommend it. It’s been a fun story so far.
