Ah. That makes more sense. I thought you were talking about webnovel author. I was wondering if some sort of online drama happened. But I agree with the author inside the novel does suck
19+ scene after hunting competition. Two of them goes to Bianca's family's villa near the beach and do you-know-what
I think this author style is plot with a little additional smut for 19+ version when I read 4 of her works.
1. As far as I remember, the author not in the story anymore, probably back to her own world.
2. After Bianca's death, Bianca's parents just told her to value her life because Bianca has saved OG FL with the cost her own life. I remember she's crying at that event. No apologize as far I remember. In my opinion, her personality almost same with Diana (For My Derelict Favorite - same author with this). After turn back time event, she doesn't remember anything (only ML remember), she falls in love again to ML but ML not bat an eye to her.
3. She's still alive, both before and after turn back time. ML hostile to her in 2nd life after know everything from Bianca's diary. She makes a mess by pointing ML as escort for princess from other country in Bianca's event. ML and Bianca avenge her by pointing she's in marriage age. She's married several years later after nagging with all marriage procedure.
Because part of the bet between the powerfull and author, she only can approach one character and can't lie.
She can't choose OG FL, because she wants to posses OG FL body if the story finish as she write (absolutely, who wants her body possessed by other when you know you will get happily ever after?)
It was a work that I enjoyed reading when it was serialized on Joara in the past, but it moved to the Kakao page and ran to the end.
The story begins when Bianca finds out that she is a supporting character in a 'novel'. Like most novel possessives, the story is twisted while knowing future events or keywords.
Actually, the reason I paid for this novel at a cafe belatedly was that at the time of the serialization of Jo Ara, Ares, the male protagonist of 'Novel', resisted being controlled by his emotions according to the flow of 'Novel'. The content was missing.
According to the flow of the novel, Ares does not connect with Leia, the original protagonist, but continues the relationship with Bianca. Nevertheless, the pillars of the 'novel', that is, the main events of the 'novel', appear, but from the time Bianca learns about the 'novel', it gradually becomes twisted. However, the pillars are not absolute, but rather the point where the characters intersect.
The point of this work is the emotional line between Bianca and Ares, and it focuses on the emotions of Bianca, who is willing to conform to the content of the novel and try to move away from Ares, and Bianca, who does not want to miss Bianca. And I think I enjoyed reading these parts the most. Ares, who is single-mindedly convincing Bianca, who is anxious because of Leah, is a thrilling point. The part where the two were fighting due to Leah's alienation was also a nice development. Although the fight between the two was more intense than I expected, I also felt that this part was more like a romance in reality, not a romance in a novel. It is love that is shaken by such trivial things, and the ground hardens only after it rains.
However, there were a few things that I regretted.
A lot of laughter sounds like hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo, quack. It has been pointed out several times in the comments, but it was a bit painful as I read it to the extent that I wondered if it had to be added so often... It would have been much cleaner and easier to read if this part had been cleaned up a bit during the editing process.
The second is a description of Bianca's attitude or behavior. Bianca has made various efforts to reign as the queen of the social world in her works, and there are often contents that emphasize such parts, but compared to those contents, her actions and attitudes of her Bianca were portrayed a little childishly. It seems that the young lady who polished herself like that and the 'author' in high school were almost on the same line. Of course, if you think of it as a character in a 'novel' written by that 'author', it makes sense, but... it's a bit disappointing. This is even more so in the sense that these descriptions influence the age of the readers.
The third is unreasonable storytelling. As I read towards the second half of the work, I was a little embarrassed, but suddenly Bianca dies and Ares finds out about the whole story and the 'author'. Ares commits suicide and the world collapses.
The world has collapsed. After reading these eight letters, I was taken aback... until the appearance of the 'powerful man' who created the world of 'novel'.
In fact, it was good until Ares destroyed the pillars of the 'novel' by suicide, but I felt that the part where the 'powerful' explained the whole story, starting with the author's past story, was excessive. The explanation itself was tedious, and the words of 'skilled people' that their fates are not fixed and the power of 'strongs' who can create and destroy the world arbitrarily are also contradictory.
What if the story of the 'writer' was removed and the conversation between Ares and Bianca, who returned to the story, had been solved about what fate was like? And it's a pity that Ares seemed more fresh against the power of 'novel' as in the previous setting. However, if it unfolded this way, the ending might have been more difficult.
Thanks! I don't know For my derelict favorite but since it's from the same author I'll give a try.
I like the originality of the story. It's the first time I see the author inside the story. The whole part with the bet is also interesting. I can relate on the author who wants to possess OGFL body...I mean who hasn't fantasized about being in our favorite story and having a HE with our favorite male character ? ^^ But here the author goes way to far in order to have what she wants.
I'm more curious on that fact that this story is smut hahahahaha.... I love the way the translator, translate this. Hahaha I never thought this is a smut novel.. I thought this is just a cute story...hahah
I am not sure why this is 19+ because there is nothing that I have noticed so far that is not pg-13. But maybe we will get smth like that later.
The translations are at chapter 23 right now so I will mainly write spoilers for the chapters after that.
So after Bianca gets into an accident and ml saves her he confessed. She is shocked and seeks the author. When the meet the author tells her that part about Ares loving her was not in the book and that she made the mistake of writing it from Leahs pov and never writting anything from the point of view of the ml. So obviously Bianka is questioning her why then does Leah now about her crush. Author tells her that it was Bianca in the novel that told it to Leah since at that point they were already friends that called each other names. Author also lashes out at Bianca for her status and angry at her for being rich and pretty. She also tells Bianca that it still does not matter and that one of the first pillars of the story is going to happen at the festival that ml and Leah will attend as sort of a date, where Leah will also aknowledges that she fell in love with Ares. Bianca says that as long as Ares likes her and since he has expressed his intensions of wanting to be with her he will not accept Leahs invitation. Author laughs at that and dissmisses that idea and leaves. After that Bianca was left alone to think through the newly acquired information.While she was sitting there Ares came to see her too. (My Korean is not great so I didnt really understand exactly how he got there. Apperently he was going to a wine bar? I also did not understand the conversation really well or whether he was tellig her that they should go to the wine club together lol. Thats not important anyway.) Bianca was also thinking now whether she can actually change future and if the pillars of the story clould be stopped. Since the festival was the first important event that the main couple from novel went to together maybe if that did not happen the story would change. Bianka trusted Ares to refuse Leahs invitation but in case the pillars were too strong she decided to ask Ares first.“I, Ares?” "Please speak. Bianca.”
Ares, who was a little discouraged because I had rejected his invitation, answered my question.
“If it’s okay with you, why don’t we go to the cherry blossom festival in a few days?”
I spit out the date request quickly without even taking a breath! Oh my God! I asked you out on a date! I did it without trembling!
As soon as I spoke to Ares, the shame after pretending to be crazy and courageous came flooding in. I stopped bowing my head. Aww, he looks like he's bleeding from his face!
With my head down like that, Ares' shoes appeared with a buzzing sound in my view. I don't know what his expression looks like. Because I was too shy to look at her face. Ares came so close to me and held my right hand, which was hanging weakly. My gaze unconsciously followed the fingertips. At the end of her gaze, Ares was smiling brighter and more beautiful than any smile I had ever seen. He grabbed my finger and pressed it against the back of his hand and his lips, not too hard.
“Anyway. I will pick you up that day as Count Uranus.”
uh huh? I succeeded! As I was looking at him with a puzzled face, Ares burst out a small smile on that beautiful face.
“Bianca, I am still waiting for you to answer my confession, but… … .”
His golden-brown eyes gently curved and embraced the warmth of warmth.
“Just, let me confess one more time, you don’t know how lovely you look right now.”
It was obvious without even looking in the mirror how stupid my expression had changed. I dont love Bianca as a character but I certainly like her. She had guts to ask Ares out and not just resign to her fate. Anyway after their conversation Bianca was back at the salon. She met Metis (her friend). Metis was like wow I am glad that you are okay since I heard that you were really sick recently. Other people were also concerned aolut her. Here is the part that I did not understand but was kinda lazy to translate fully lol. Its either she did not tell anybody about her being sick and only Leah knew since she wanted to visit her but was rejected due to the Fl illness. The fact that everybody else and Ares learned that from Leah made Bianca question some things I guess. Like this particular conversation with Metis was confusing. Maybe I interpreted the situation wrongly so dont take my summary too seriously its just a good exposition to the other part of Bianca questioning Leah in her mind.
So then Bianca is sitting and reading a bool there when Ares comes and sits down on the sofa near her. The greet each other. He is worried about her health from last time they had a conversation. And she says that it wasnt a big deal. Then when she wanted to continue their conversation the salon door opens and Leah come in and then shouts: "Bianca! Ares! You are both here!!". Bianca is like all teacher mode telling her not to shout next time she sees them lol.
Then Leah starts talking about flowers and that the day for the festival was chosen pretty well. Bianca naturally sees where this conversation is heading and is praying for Leah not say anything. But of course Leah is like why dont we go to the festival together! (Honestly, at this point I am not sure if she is oblivious to the fact that they are not really friends)
Omg my man Ares is like sorry I can't. Then she asks Bianca that she has made a promise to other person. (I was kind of amused by the word choice from Ares and Bianca. He used the word pledge in Korean while Bianca the regular promise word that all Koreans use.) After that exchange the conversation dies out. Bianca feels awkward communicating with Ares in front of Leah so she decided to leave.
There is a small moment from her here that I found to be cute. When she exits she lingers at the door a little bit kinda wishing that Ares would just leave Leah there and go after her again lol. But the door does not open and she finally leaves. The thing that I dont really like about the novel and fl is that there are too much inner monologs in her mind that are always kind of repetitive. Btw their conversations are much more detailed but I just wrote some parts I thought were important.
Anyway I will continue.
She then goes shopping for jewellery. While being there she also decided to get something for Ares. While she was doing that she also had a looong train of thoughts going on too obviously. >_<
She was thinking throught the authors motives. The author wrote her to be rich but despises the fact that she was born with a golden spoon. Here in the story she wrote it that way so Leah would be with Ares. Despite her hatred for her Bianca's rich status she does not have the same feelings towards Ares. However, he is even more influential and rich than Bianca. Then why is the author not mad at him. I think the double standard from author is strong here. She despises the rich Bianca and made her a villain while even more rich Ares is of course the ML.
Bianca is also thinking since the novel was written by author with such values and its from the pov of Leah could there be a chance that they both have the same opinion? I stopped reading here. Its half way through first volume already and after I read some more I will try to find time to spoile some more. I do wish for less thinking pages and more romantic action honestly.
