Suggestion
The ruler of an authoritarian state, leading a large army, is besieged and killed in a war, and is himself critically wounded and dying. His successor is not yet mature, and the sea creatures will inevitably be eyeing him after the war. A depleted treasury and heavy taxation will trigger class conflict within the country. If this doesn't count as defeat, I really don't know what defeat is. As the defeated party, regardless of what happens afterward, at least during wartime, they have no right to make demands on the victor. Historically speaking, this alone violates most people's logical thinking about normal warfare. Whether setting fire to the forest can affect the Elf race is questionable; after all, I don't know how the author...
This war is not going to work out. [Contains spoilers] This review is only for the free chapter.
Let me start with my personal feelings. While the war between the elves and humans had some plot holes and was relatively simple, it was still watchable. However, the final marriage alliance… was truly off-putting, the last straw. I never expected it to end like this. First of all, the general direction of the plot was fine—weak nations have no diplomacy and are forced into marriage alliances—but there were many problems with the details. 1. The beginning clearly stated that the human war against the elves was an expedition, difficult, and later it was mentioned that the sea creatures would arrive as reinforcements, but this was also time-consuming. The elves had good ships, yet they didn't go out to harass the humans, instead staying on an island with some troops in the rear to prevent surprise attacks. At the time, I thought this was…
Some suggestions from a reader
If this were a harem novel, where the male lead transmigrates and happens to encounter an elf princess on a political marriage, and the plot is fairly formulaic with decent writing, easily racking up over 10,000 favorites. However, this is a story about a woman being forced into a marriage by a different man, and some readers will definitely be dissatisfied with the way the female lead is sent to her, feeling the author is feeding them garbage. Since the majority of readers on this site are male, stories about lesbian relationships are more popular than those about forced marriage, with far more favorites and audiobooks. Well-written stories about forced marriages are already rare, and some were even abandoned midway due to low favorites and subscriptions. These are just some personal suggestions. If the male lead appears later (I don't know if the emperor's son is the male lead, but if he is, then...),
What about the Knights of the Round Table? King Arthur could live without a wife, but he absolutely could not live without the Knights of the Round Table!
Another piece of crap
If you wanted to write a purely female-oriented version of a price-changing story, why include pineapple buns? If you want to write a price-changing story, can't you just write it properly? Start with the transformation, explain the premise, have a battle, and then "300 years have passed in the blink of an eye, compared to that, the previous 20 years of male life are nothing" 😅. The author is being clever, trying to be cunning. After that, it'll just be a typical female-oriented romance novel 😅. These days, price-changing stories are either just harem novels catering to specific fantasies, or they're limited to the beginning explaining the premise and then just a rambling romance 😅. Hahaha, price-changing stories really have a bright future 😅
This war is written in such a bizarre way! Elves can mobilize their entire population as soldiers, while humans can't. Without serious study, humans can't even reach the first rank. And the elves have more top-tier combatants than humans, so how come they can't defeat humans?
The disagreement between the male and female leads regarding catching the dragon felt rather abrupt... There were clearly a hundred ways to do it, but they just wrote it this way... Sigh.
Speaking of gifts, one thing comes to mind: diamonds. The most absurd scam of the last century, bar none. They inflated the price of a worthless, low-cost stone to thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. They even forcibly linked it to love, resulting in the pyramid scheme-like slogan, "A diamond is forever."
This queen... It's really weird. Forget about looking dignified; it just feels incredibly out of place... It would be more appropriate to just say "This King" directly. To be honest, if you simply adopted the Western system, you wouldn't use the term "this king"; it would all be "I". ""
