I'll admit that this Manhwa certainly has some issues, but I have to declare that it's the most enjoyable one I've read so far. It's exactly what I look for in a piece of media—something that keeps me from wanting to put it down and leaves me wanting more at the end. I know it's not finished, but I have a good feeling about how it will end. I don't want to ruin the fun for anyone; I just want people to know that you should definitely try it. I adore the FL lead because she is a badass who doesn't take crap from anyone.

Ever heard of Usain Bolt, the world's fastest man? Unfortunately, he can't even hold a candle to this manhwa's author, since they somehow managed to rush 50+ chapters worth of novel story and fit them into 4 single manhwa chapters. TL;DR at bottom

I kid you not, the first 60 or so chapters were quite enjoyable. It's a typical reincarnation story with a baddass female lead that was a former empress/swordmaster, and as usual, there's a love story. Overall, it was enjoyable - no harem or love triangles, characters seemed likeable, there was this whole mysterious cult intrigue, plot had serious potential.

Sadly, the series probably got ... axed, because the last 4 chapters were one heck of a fever dream, to the point it was rather hilarious.
It was as if I were watching a slow playthrough of Dark Souls and somewhere along the midpoint of the game, the streamer goes "Fk this game" and proceeds to fly through half the map with glitches and kills the last boss with cheats. This is the most accurate analogy I can give for this manhwa's ending and plot closure.

TL;DR I'm giving this a 5/10, since overall it was pretty fun, but the ending really soured the score. Positive points though: the ending ties most of the plot points and gives an acceptable closure to the story, so don't worry about being left on a cliffhanger; secondly, I also think the ending fits the horseshoe theory, since it's so bad, that it kinda unironically becomes hilariously memorable.

This is a short and enjoyable read for those who like to switch off their brains while reading. Likeable main characters and relationships, interesting plot, and stunning art.

Of course, there are clichés, but that is not what makes it average. The villains, who held some type of significance, lacked depth and explanation for their actions, values, views, etc. Multiple plot points fell through without logical or properly explained motivations. Personally, missed some in-depth backstory of characters other than the female lead. Even the male lead's backstory wasn't fully explored. The end was extremely rushed; a few more chapters would have fixed that.
It has so much ... potential with different possibilities for complexity, but oh well ˙◠˙.

So all in all, a fun, cliché-filled, short read with a strong female lead and her sidekicks who are a tad bit too two-dimensional.

O começo é interessante, histórias em que a protagonista é forte e independente realmente me atraem. Porém o jeito que as coisas foram desenvolvidas estragaram uma obra que poderia ser boa, digo isso porque o final foi completamente sem sentido.Quando eu vi que a história tinha 69 capítulos tive certeza de que ela estava atualizando mas na real estava completa. Desenvolveram muitas coisas sem valor e esqueceram do que real importava. Uma história escrita rapidamente e que infelizmente eu só recomendo se estiver desesperado por leitura. A protagonista é linda, forte e inteligente, o protagonista me atraiu no começo mas depois ele me irritou um ... pouquinho, até porque focaram muito nela e pouco nele. Queria que tivessem desenvolvido mais a história da vida passada dela e o passado do protagonista também (o que ele passava, a relação com o pai e a falecida mãe dele).
