already suspected in their first excursion (Arlok) that MC might just be the one he's looking for. As a commander, his judgement is gold therefore he must first find evidence that could back up his conclusion before taking action because in the battlefield, if he made a wrong order, him and his men and maybe many galaxies, will be screwed. This practice should be ingrained within him, therefore he didn't immediately rule that MC is the right Lu Liran. By their second excursion, he's already certain of his conclusion based on the stockpiled evidences which is honestly fast enough because they literally just met each other again about a week or so ago.
There's also the fact that they really didn't know each other well and each other's habits. ML may have watched the MC for a long time, but he didn't "personally" know him, which is why he has to take many considerations before being 100% certain.
[collapse]Second, SpoilerThere's a ton of galaxies out there and Lu Liran has no way of contacting his family. This isn't just one country to another country-- it's a galaxy to another galaxy. Lu Liran has nothing, he's broke af, do you think it'll be easy for a random person contacting another galaxy's very influential family because he's their young master who presumably "died" in war? Even his brother, who has all the resources, took time in seeking him out. It's common sense. They don't have facebook ffs where they can log in and Lu Liran can just message "SOS, stranded, face disfigured and also have a bun now."
[collapse]Gee, aside from that, the romance is slow in the beginning but boy, ML will aggressively flirt in the second half. MC, too, is very proactive. They're not without their flaws but that's what makes them so good. Side characters too, have their own stories, no matter how brief. SpoilerThere's a rich character who MC saved and who I thought would use MC to save himself but the guy didn't, because MC saved him and he just accepted that he'll die due to the machinations of his family. MC gave him the courage to live and he didn't waste that chance. Another arrogant guy who was with his "little" girlfriend when they got attacked in the amusement park, and I thought he'd do a runner like a coward and leave his trapped girlfriend behind, but he took her hand, consoled her, and stayed with her despite knowing he'd die if he stayed.
[collapse] They're much more 3D for merely side characters and it really expands how cruel and kind humans can be.The Author also did a whole lot of research for the "adventure". I don't know how accurate they are, but they left me fascinated, and despite MTL-ing it, I still plowed through because I was left wanting for more.I did not expect this when I picked it up. 5/5 for the story, and for the few translated chapters, also 5/5 for quality. You guys rock. Thank you for introducing this story to me.
