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.
