Now I want someone to write a fanfic about a concubine of King Zed trying to survive the intrigues of the harem. ( ̄ω ̄')
Now that I think about it, doesn't Alberu have like, a bunch of brothers and sisters? Then like, Zed had a lot of partners, though I suppose he only officially married the third prince's mother and the rest are concubines like Alberu's mother. So like, didn't Zed kill his siblings in the fight for throne? Or was it in another story? Did he like, ever think that his successor might choose his path and kill the rest of his kids and perhaps his own father too to sit on the throne?
And this third prince whom Zed favored, I was like, dying to know his name in the beginning. And Alberu's mothers name too. Then I just went like, if the third prince's name was like something long, complicated and hard to pronounce, wouldn't it be hilarious. I can imagine Cale's and Choi Han's reaction when they hear the name for the first time. Cake would just give up cuz it's too hard to say and he couldn't be bothered lol.
Back to the Crossman family. There are so many members there. Like damn. Wouldn't the tea within the family be quite juicy? Like, I can imagine all the family drama behind the doors? The public might not be aware of it, because they like to keep a good image and all. But I am very curious of all the sh*t happening within the palace. I've always thought about it from the day I've heard Zed have multiple kids from multiple women. When Cale hears all the drama, he'd be like, damn, I was right in thinking that nothing would do good if I get involved with you. He might enjoy the tea, but he'd be too scared to get his slacker life dream ruined.
Ok, who wants to make an OC named Bob? because I want to (・∀・)ノ

I really like that the romance and shipping are left for the secondary characters (Mannah, Jax, Hatoonka, etc.) ( ̄ω ̄)
I prefer to read about queerplatonic relationships, family and friendships, that's one of the main reasons I love this book. (*¯ ³¯*)♡
Love all the shipping but i gotta remember why i started reading this manhwa in the first place xD
Cale as Naru
I'm waiting for enough chapters of book 2 to be uploaded to start a marathon and while I wait I've been reading the manhwa.
And I'm going to say it honestly, I was a little disappointed (-ω-、), I'm going to do little reviews for the chapters I read from now on so here's my review of the first ten chapters.
The first thing I noticed is that they skipped the scene where KRS woke up in Cale's body and I'm a little disappointed that Ron's first appearance isn't the same, but the bathroom scene makes up for it a bit (^〃^)b, its design is charming and I loved the fox eyes that seem to have eyeliner in Cale's design, after all they demonstrate his cunning, plus as another publication mentions, he is the only character with white pupils instead of black, if we add the knowledge That his eyes are the same as when he was KRS is a very good omen ⸜( ´ ꒳ ` )⸝
The face Cale made when he declared that the key to fashion is the face gave me a lot of tenderness so there are no complaints on that part ┐( ̄∀ ̄)┌
The first appearance of the Henituse family was very similar to the one in the novel and the panels were very interesting, I liked it, that's all I'll say (︶‿︺)
I really liked Billos's design, I feel that it correctly captures his character and description ( ̄ ▽  ̄)
Continuing to talk about the design, for some reason I really liked Ohn's shoes in their first appearance, they reminded me of ballet slippers and now I have the headcanon that that is the type of shoe he likes to wear, something comfortable and soft but It is perfect for stealth missions and easy to obtain regardless of your socioeconomic level (─‿‿─)
The first appearance of the man-eating tree was not as shocking as I expected, I feel like it still had a lot of color for a dead mana-infected tree, in fact, I didn't like its appearance either once I obtained the Indestructible Shield, where are the blue leaves? ? because that's green! not blue! (; ̄Д ̄)
The design of the gluttonous priestess seemed a little too similar to Egyptian clothing for someone who lived in the jungle, although it is acceptable if that is Cale's imagination (ᓀ ᓀ)
In the bar scene I saw a ruffian with a long blue braid and my first thought was, Why didn't they give that design to, I don't know, Bud? He's too handsome for an extra (`皿´#)
When Cale and Choi Han meet Cale seemed a little awkward to me and he is perfect for this type of scene plus Ohn and Hong were super cute (´ ∀ ` *)
I liked Choi Han's design, they made all the black of the clothes work and although I would have liked the cape to be brown instead of gray, the magenta highlights in the hair and the large number of buckles on his boots made me like it. I would like the design (´▽`)b
The first mention of how those who give you food are good people hit my heart when remembering Cale's past, it was perfect ヽ(⌒▽⌒)ノ
The first appearance of Hans and Beacrox is not very memorable but I loved their designs, I imagined Hans as a thirty-something with a beard but I loved the fact that they presented him as a cute twenty-something, and just looking at Beacrox gives that enhanced mysterious and terrifying vibe because of the dark circles under his eyes, but he looks incredible and the resemblance to Ron is noticeable.
Cale's imagination with the bowling pins-Ron and Beacrox being hit by a ball-Choi Han was very cute highlighting Cale's way of thinking and demonstrating it again with the matryoshkas-Ron, Beacrox and Choi Han (≧◡≦)
Deruth's reflections on Cale's change reminded me that no matter how bad a father he is, he is still one.
The first appearance of the dreaded lemons was iconic and Cale's expressions are beautiful ( ̄ω ̄)
Choi Han's transformation from mad dog to puppy has already begun and it is beautiful ٩(◕‿◕。)۶
The Henituse family crest was shown for the first time that I have noticed it and it is perfect.
Rosalyn and Lock's silhouettes with their shadows were incredible and gave us a good idea of what they will look like.
Besides Cale's imagination of what Raon looked like was hilarious, is that perhaps a foreshadowing of his adult form? Or is Cale just underestimating things? (°▽°)?
I really liked the first appearance of the Indestructible Shield, but I was left wondering where the wings were (¯ . ¯٥)?
Ohn and Hong's adoption was very sweet and Hans' reaction to "the cute nim-kitties" was hilarious and lived up to his name as a cat lover, plus the faces they made when they found out they were Discovered I loved them (´ ε `)♡
I really liked the conversation between Cale and Billos, plus the face Billos makes is very cool (✧ω✧)
And this is everything that caught my attention from the manhwa so far\(٥⁀▽⁀ )/
See you later! (^0^)ノ
Happy Pride Month! \(≧▽≦)/
Hc icons happy pride monthhhh
I know that in fanfiction and fanarts he has many fans, but it must be admitted that in the canon, apart from being a cat lover and a good butler, he was not much delved into ( ̄ヘ ̄)
He is known to be good at fighting with daggers and a spear, but at no point in the story is he seen fighting and I feel disappointed in that (# ̄ω ̄)
Also, now that I'm rereading the novel and reading the manhwa, I got the idea that Hans could be a good shaman (︶︹︺)
Why did it occur to me? For one thing only, cats (^• ω •^)
If Hans becomes a shaman there is no doubt that his animal companions would be cats, something he would definitely enjoy (づ ◕‿◕ )づ
If that ever became canon I would like to see how he and Jopis interact (O.O)
From my point of view there are only two options: they get along immediately or they fight like, well, cats and dogs ╮( ̄ω ̄;)╭
I would have liked to see him fight at some point and generally have more participation (¬_¬;)
His character has no background, what is his past? Where does he come from? How was he hired? Why did he become a butler? ლ(¯ロ¯"ლ)
I want to know all that and more, even better if he is given a positive character arc, advancement with his abilities, and good development (o^ ^o)
UFHUERHHFFNESNNJNFFNSEAIJJJMZOKAKFEMAGNNESGNV!
¡I LOVE IT! (*♡∀♡)
I've never seen many Dark Tiger!Alberu fanarts, but this is definitely one of the most beautiful ones out there! (❤ω❤)

It's the stuff of nightmares to think about having an ever-growing population of dragons (;;;*_*)
In the best situation, humans and all other races would be slaves to the whims of the dragons, dying one after another.
In the worst case it is the end of the world.
Wait! (◎ ◎) That doesn't sound like…
I always thought the reason Dragons only lay one egg in TCF (being Sherritt the only exception) was a bit obvious, and then realized I'm stupid for thinking it was obvious, so I'll share my thoughts.
It's a way to avoid overpopulation.
Think about it, each ecosystem has its own rules and there is a reason why invasor species (animals that were thoughlessly released in an ecosystem they didn't belong to) are considered invasors.
They tilt the whole balance within, they eat other species that eat plagues or help pollination, and end up becoming a plague.
What do you think would happen if Dragons were social creatures? What do you think would happen if they reproduced like humans or could lay more eggs like, say, snakes?
Dragons are the Apex Predator of Apex Predators. Just one of them can destroy a whole country, the ecosystem would collapse if too many inhabit the world, it's not like Dragons would hesitate to get rid of anything inconveniencing them
So yeah, nature has to have a way to keep them in check
Okay, I have an AU idea that could be a lot of fun to write. (@^◡^)
This is nothing serious, I just thought what if this happened, and here I am. ┐( ̄ヮ ̄)┌
So, this is my AU:
OgCale was a commander of a platoon with whom he formed close bonds.
KRS managed to connect with the team members after JSH (Joo So Hoon) admitted that his father died of old age. The rest of the team (excluding KMA) consoled him, revealing that they also lack close family members.
They offered to be each other’s family, marking their oath by getting matching maple leaf tattoos. (Because the Korean word for ‘one’ [일] can be translated as ‘day’ [낮], and ‘autumn day’ [가을날] can be translated as ‘maple’ [단풍].)
This triggers Rok Soo to spend more quality time with Team 1, subconsciously thinking of them as family.
Simultaneously, an attack by an unclassified monster occurs during the battle in Puzzle City, pushing both Team 1 and the platoon to the brink of death.
The god of death brings OgCale and KRS to his domain, proposing that they return to their worlds and switch bodies. They acept whit one condition: their teams must go with them.
For OgCale’s side, it’s straightforward. The platoon members are easily placed in the younger bodies of Team 1, just before the destruction of the shelters. They receive information about the future situation and their new lives, enough to survive and thrive.
However, Team 1 (+ the Bae family) faces a tougher challenge. All platoon members were born during the war, so they can’t travel to those bodies.
The solution? Create new bodies for them. But there’s a problem: the resemblance to Choi Han.
His mutations in the Dark Forest (because you can’t convince me he didn’t mutate in the 150+ years trapped, surviving with magical beasts and mutated herbs while exposed to lethal poisons and dead mana ┐( ’ д ') ┌) would make him something a little less than human for those who know how to look.
The solution: create non-human bodies that replicate these mutations (bright reflections in black or brown hair, sharp fangs, thicker skin, high resistance to toxins and both live and dead mana, night vision, slightly pointed ears, etc.). This provides a viable explanation for their post-apocalyptic abilities.
Once done, they’re left somewhere between Rain City and Roan’s capital.
Everything up to the start of the journey to the capital happens as in canon, except that Cale’s tattoos (located above his knees) come with him to Nameless 1.
The encounter with the bandits changes everything. In their camp, they find a bunch of cages containing Team 1.
Cale, worried and mentally cursing the god of death, approaches to free them.
Meanwhile, Choi Han is visibly shocked to see a group of Koreans locked in cages (noticed by Cale’s entourage).
Cale frees them using a key he snatched from the leader.
And accidentally, Sejong calls him Timjang-Nim [팀장] (which means ‘team leader-nim’).
Ron asks if he knows them, and Min Ah, carrying her daughter, inadvertently worsens the situation by claiming they’re her clan.
Meanwhile, the knights wonder if this is why Cale brought Choi Han to the Henituse mansion, and they start concocting increasingly elaborate theories.
All my random ideas and TCF content that I need to share with someone (o^▽^o)
