Synopsis

[Identity Exposed] [Broken Up] [Reunited]

As you can see, I'm a mage.

I'm poor, with nothing but bare walls, clumsy, dull-witted, and ignorant of the ways of the world. Magic is the only thing I have going for me.

Then I spent the last three copper coins I had on a tall, handsome human slave.

The slave had a scarred face and was missing a hand. They said he used to be a notorious mercenary who could swing an eight-foot greatsword with a fearsome whistle.

Everyone else urged me to be careful, but I wasn't afraid at all. I just felt he wouldn't hurt me.

Why? No reason. I simply felt that way.

Besides, he had a lovely scent, a comforting smell that reminded me of the forest where I used to live.

As expected, once we got home, the slave didn't hurt me. He looked fierce, but took care of me every day and cooked me delicious meals.

He's such a good person.

It's just that he's so nagging. He keeps telling me I'm stupid, forgetful, and face-blind, and that I have no sense of direction.

And he keeps muttering about some "Platinum Dragon King," saying the Platinum Dragon King destroyed his hometown, ate his parents, and took his virginity...

What is he even talking about?

He just kept going on and on. One day, I finally got fed up and blurted out, "I'm the Platinum Dragon King. What exactly do you have against me that you keep spreading these rumors?"

Naturally dark, commanding nonhuman top X handsome mercenary bottom, tough on the outside but soft at heart

First-person POV from the top, 1v1, both virgins

Feels like marking them as both virgins is already a major spoiler XD

Theme: Stand on your own feet and grow strong

Mostly Feel-Good Stories, With Some Soapy Drama

Includes original danmei and fanworks. The writing is solid and the plots are engaging, with nuanced emotions. Apart from feel-good power fantasies, they're mostly melodramatic stories. Personally, I like the explosive, old-school kind.

Top-Only, Bottom-Leaning, or Mutual Pampering

I personally prefer handsome or muscular shou, but I'll read other types too. I can't stand weak or clingy gongs, and I don't like books with too many side couples. If a book is good, I'll usually buy the whole thing.

Reading List

Just my personal taste. Includes romance, danmei with both top and bottom perspectives, and no-CP stories. I'm keeping these here so that if I switch accounts again, I can find them all in one place instead of searching everywhere. It satisfies my love of collecting, and I recommend them too.

Top-Focused Mutual Devotion, No Weak Tops: No KK

My personal archive. To me, mutual pampering is the point. Whether the top spoils the bottom or the bottom spoils the top depends on their characterization, as long as the feelings are strongly mutual. I hate one-sided relationships.
