The most wholesome found family story that literally made me sob!

Rating: 4.65 out of 5

Omg, okay, I need to talk about this novel because my heart is actually full right now. I know the title has a typo ("begains," lol), but honestly? Ignore it. Just read it. This story is giving everything I didn't know I needed.

First of all, the way it starts is so intense? We jump right into the war between humans and demons, and you expect it to be just fighting, but then—bam!—emotional damage. Lady Knight Sarah defeating the Demon Queen Eliza wasn't just a battle; it was a tragedy. When Eliza used her last moments to ask Sarah to take care of her adopted son, Shirou? I was literally crying. Like, full-on tears. It sets up this beautiful "enemies to family" trope that I am absolutely obsessed with.

The storyline following Shirou growing up with Sarah's family is just precious. It’s not easy for him, obviously, since he was raised by the "enemy," and watching him try to fit in while dealing with his past is heartbreaking but so rewarding. The chapter "Captain Brown" had me stressed, but seeing Sarah defend him and step up as a mom was the ultimate girlboss moment. She didn't just defeat a queen; she became one in my eyes by protecting that boy.

There is plenty of action too—the "Duel" chapter? I was on the edge of my seat! I was so scared Shirou was going to get hurt or exposed, but he held his own. The suspense isn't always about life or death battles; sometimes it's just about whether Shirou will be accepted, and honestly, that hits harder.

I know the writing format is a bit raw and unpolished since it's a web novel, but the emotions are so real that you barely notice the mistakes after a while. You just care about the characters too much. If you love stories about redemption, adoption, and cool knight moms, you have to read this. 4.65/5 because I need Volume 2 immediately!
