Don't you love it when the fmc literally plays with poisons? Because I sure as hell do.🤩😍🥳

I'm pretty sure who the MMC is, but reading too much romance has taught me never trust the first set of cast in any series. You never know who'll end up dead soon. 🌚

I adore the anime adaptation of this manga so I just had to give reading it a shot! I love the art style in the manga and it's always really cool to see comparisons between the adaptation and the manga. I still adore the story and I'm so excited to read through the manga and see what lies ahead!
