First of all idk if it’s too slow or its the character that made me drop this? Like there were a lot thing that doesn’t make sense and it ick me off so much that I couldn’t find the mood to enjoy this novel. Also I do love, love malicious empress and someone said this has better romance and I’m quite excited to give this a try but..my first ick- how old the FL in her previous life before she died? She mentioned 19 which is ridiculous because she joined the army at 14, she went many hardships and experienced many events in her “many years ago” which she always reminisced but then she’s also married for 1yr? So if she died at 19-20 her “many years of experiences ” of becoming the legendary general is only 2-3yrs? Unless she’s immortal it’s impossible for her to be so skillful and powerful.My second ick- she’s too impulsive and overestimated herself which often put her life in danger, she also act too suspicious and if not for the “protagonist halo” she would have been accused of being a spy and beheaded, she’s also quite naive and clumsy. The fact that her identity was not discovered in her last life is questionablemy third ick- how she didn’t love her body and constantly get hurt and full of scars just like her previous life. I feel tired watching her jumping around seeking death for her revenge while also not having a care that she can die anytime yet haven’t even touch a single hair of the evildoers. The female lead is indeed admirable but not likable to my taste, reading this novel makes me feel like a cannon fodder whose consciousness was awaken and watch the “protagonist halo” take effect from the sideline. As for the ML, so far although it reached a 100 chapters he’s giving nothing.not sure if I’ll continue reading this but I really don’t like tomboy FL so idk 🤷🏻♀️
