Shadow Slave by Guiltythree

It is very good book just that

This novel has over 4.5 rating on other sites

This is a solid 4. Pretty good, but not great.
I like character development and story pacing, but personally don't like some of the character attitudes and plot twist after the 1 volume, weren't as much plot twists anymore, as author is hinting too much, and knowing the way it works, it gets obvious

SUNNY LIED IN CHAPTER 452😱😨

I read it and...Everyting expect Mc is good in this novel .I saw anti-hero i clicked .I saw him being slave to the hero i got excited. When i see mc slowly becoming more like Shifty from first Nightmare,i despaired .When i realized mc is not the "Main character",I dropped it.

The virgin Sunny:
nooo, my flaw is so debilitating!! It forces me to tell the truth.

vs

The Chad Agent 47:
I can lie but I choose to tell the truth anyways.

I recommend it, among the huge pile of shit that falls out on the Internet these days, such novels are like fresh air, solid 4.5!

When i am reading it . I am starting to get the same vibe as berserk manga. The same vibe from neph like Griffith

I honestly didn't want to pick up this novel for the longest time because of the way it was presented. "Shadow slave, does that mean the main character is always going to be someones slave? I'm not really into that.". So I dropped it. Half a year later i finally just started reading it because really, I'd read everything I'd wanted to read so I was bored.

Reading it was an ... Experience. I'll be honest I usually read power fantasies so reading this torture porn was quite a deviation from my usual but I kept on reading. It dragged me in with hopeless situations the sadist author always put the MC in, and the unintentional or intentional comedy the MC naturally generated, and then I reached the latest chapter and I was lost.

Seriously what the f#ck, i would have never expected to like this dog shit and here i am praising it. Whatever, i don't even know what to say anymore just give it a chance

I have an explanation for the flaw naming... The flaw is most likely told in runes language and it has been stated that runes are far more detailed than English and their translations are not good. For eg- Changing Star can also mean Star of Ruin. Similarly, 'You cannot lie' should also be translated into 'You must always say the truth'... Its a literal translation problem people, there solved
