Let me preface this by saying that I am not the target audience. I don’t generally seek out romance to read, and I’d never read a harem story before.
However, ‘A Mythical Love Affair’ is no mere harem romance.
It is a work of passion; and not just any passion, but passion for writing.
Each male character is fun to read about, and the way they all interact with each other and with the protagonist Ina is endearing.
Furthermore, this story actually treats its characters with respect; the males aren’t mere eye-candy to be ogled and cast aside, and Ina is not some cardboard cutout character that clearly couldn’t care less for them.
Each of the characters contributes something meaningful to the story as well, with none of the main characters ever feeling unnecessary.
Celphi starts the main conflict.
Mede makes everything more tense.
Marik teaches Ina about his mother.
Pan heals Celphi and protects Ina from:
Riye escorts her back home and protects her from Pan.
And Ina shows everyone basic human kindness and encourages them, and also has a great goal beyond ‘See cute guys’ (which is pretty much never her motivation).
‘A Mythical Love Affair’ is one of the finest stories I’ve read in a while, & it is definitely one of the best romances.
I’d gladly recommend this story to anyone looking for a fun romance.
Also, the moral of the story is absolutely bonkers and amazing and I love it so much that… You should read it to find out for yourself what it is because I couldn’t bear to spoil it.
