This entire story reads like someone hitting someone then turning to a third person and saying "why did you make me hit them?" and it drives up a damn wall.
I've seen a lot of stupid plotlines where someone thinks it's a good idea to mess with someone way stronger than them. But this...like; have they lost their goddamn minds? mfer is what, level 99? Do you want to die?
Those first couple of pages making me remember the scene in the novel and aggghhh. This series does things to my tearducts I tell you what.
Welp, the last couple pages got me too. Son of a gun...
