I feel deceived, I pushed through the insufferable ahole of a main character for the lamia and there's no snek girl yet
I hate racism being a main plot point, especially fantasy racism, I'm so tired of it (like for real is there one fantasy that doesn't have extreme racism as a plot point, it's either humans hate everything not human, elves hate everything not elf, everyone hates humans, or in the case of this "demons are evil") and that being 90% of the mc's personality really sucked any chance of me enjoying this out but I wanted to see how it was once the cute lamia girl got introduced so pushed through and eventually started just skipping his interactions with the demon girl before long and well...
some genuine criticism tho, [spoiler alert] the mc's interactions with the demon girl make no sense, it starts of with the intro bringing up his seething hatred for demons and that they all need to die, his first reaction upon seeing her is to tell is family to leave and he will kill it, then as soon as he has the opportunity to do so he doesn't kill her (obviously she can't die if you want him to fuck her or even become a love interest but everything he has thought so far is basically "kill all demons") then when he decides to let her live he's immediately joking around with her despite still seeing her as an "it" and seriously considering killing her just to be safe, even tho he has no real motivation to keep her alive (he doesn't believe she's responsible for what happened anymore therefore not knowing where they are and he doesn't see her as capable of helping him find them, as well as still seeing her as a potential threat).
basically mc is an insufferable bigoted asshole not only to my displeasure but in complete disregard for how you want the plot to progress, he's a completely seething demon hating soldier until you want him to spare the one demon that is actually shown to us, then he's just flinging insults and joking around with the thing he hates most in the world
also side note on mc's first seeing the demon girl, the story seems to imply he has ptsd about what the demons have done during the war and yet upon seeing something that is very likely a recurring nightmare, a demon in the middle of town right next to his family, he doesn't react as extremely as his opinions and mental state are portrayed in my opinion, he just goes very protective, where with how much trauma and hatred he is portrayed to have I'd expect him to genuinely try to kill her so she doesn't get any chance to do all the horrible things he's 100% convinced she will definitely do, ofcourse his reaction makes sense for a generic bigoted soldier seeing an "enemy" in his town but not for one that seems to be as traumatised as him, heck if he started beating her after he'd first seen her and had the guards pull him off her just to see her in tears, and see his wife and kids be horrified by what he did, then the way he ended up treating her makes some sense still not trusting and still hateful but a tinge of guilt to make him not do anything worse than he already had (not that I want to see that just some things that don't add up to me)
