It's another change from the novel to speed things up. Frey gets hit in the novels because he's in the middle of giving Kania some lifeforce again when Isolet suddenly backslashes him due to the brainwashing not wearing off yet.man I hate these plot moments where MC takes a hit to protect someone... YOU HAVE A SWORD DAMMIT. It just breaks immersion.
BecauseI'm struggling to see WHY the wacky villain system is needed. Without its justification it just feels like a plot contrivance to this regression concept.
All we've been told is he needs "that item" to get his "happy ending"
The premise is interesting, but the execution has felt so lackluster.
It wants to feel like a video game but simultaneously not be one.
If that vagueness is done poorly like this one than what's the point. They don't start info dumping until chapter 20 it seems? That's piss poor adaptation and why this is dogshit.What story reveals all their threats and plot points in the first arc? None apparently.
Screw you. Same
The original author must not have been happy the manhwa adaption made the scene idiotic.It's another change from the novel to speed things up. Frey gets hit in the novels because he's in the middle of giving Kania some lifeforce again when Isolet suddenly backslashes him due to the brainwashing not wearing off yet.
So it really is a piece of shit.This adaptation has really weird pacing, they skipped a bunch of stuff, including the info dump at the start. Looks like they're finally touching on it around chapter 20 of this webtoon.
So in chapter 1 of the novel, it mentions that the Hero from 1000 years ago, the one who wrote the prophecy, is just straight up from another world. His ancestor was playing a video game called "Dark Tale Fantasy" and called it a piece of shit before losing consciousness and getting isekai'd into it.
Frey's story 1000 years after the first hero takes place during "Dark Tale Fantasy 2", the "prophecy" is a magically made walkthrough for the game.
