http://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-ultimate-past/ I came across thso novel today! ....so far its hot smut with a little mystery ....but it has like 200 chaps o.o so i was wondering how is the relationship like between the mc and ml since the ml is the mc's boss (and the uke >.>) ...does the ml have anything to do with that missing child case of the mc? (like....is he the accomplice somehow? >.>) pokes @scriptor @winter-t @LaDyViL @kiara8 @readerz @krrizis @Kittsune @Shem @Toyo @Hotato @Novel otaku desu @Matsurika @kly @sinyueliang @SnowTime @ludagad @Luen @DarkBlue @Yuslia @clear @dustmite @smr85 @lalalyly @Cohran @MoMoePom @azure_sea @Kosu @Misaki Yata @Haigi @XD @MoMoePom @PKitty @insteadofdeath
I've read the chats relating to TUP, and I can say I'm feeling apprehensive to read them. So I'm stacking chapters right now to binge and possibly reduce the angst to come.
whut?! O__O oh nooo...not really my cup of tea then, except when in the end the mc and ml get together and the uke/ml doesn't cheat...
Crime mystery. OFC they have to get the frustration out of their system somehow kek.... So it's not actually cheating when they are for example not together yet... just think of yakuza manga... ofc that's a whole different place... but similar of sorts, but still that r@pe tag.... well...
@alexfilia I saw about three chapters done on @SnowTime 's site and I plan to read it but I am not sure? Have you seen any of it?
hmm, yeah, i'm okay with it, when they aren't together yet. just hope that fidelity is a thing between them. but what? rape tag? O___O god, i will need to know if it's bad or detailed...otherwise i can't read it, don't want to be surprised in a bad way >__< i think i can stand it if it's not that triggering/detailed and of course, preferrably not involving mc or ml (it IS a mystery crime novel after all. maybe they are only investigating it?) does someone know about this rape scene? (hopefully there is only one scene...)
Hm well i assume its sorts like detective crime agency or sth like that, or even the fbi or so, so it might be cuz of a case or like that, but welp, waiting til someone explains it here.
The first chaps are mostly smut ....but the novel has over 200 chaps so there is plot too (and the relationship between the mc and the ml seems intresting)
I've read the novel almost to current translation.(I'm waiting for more stacks). So far the uke hasn't slept around with anyone aside from the MC. Summer says there is a reason for uke sleeping around. I just hope the uke doesn't ends up like a depressing whining slut.
Kosu is right, they are more like fvck buddies and colleagues for a long time......Because of Rene's ambiguous identity, Anton can't trust him. Besides, this novel is about how Rene's past and how Anton discovers it while investigating current cases, so many of the men I was talking about in the chat are just his exes. Anton has exes and other fck buddies, too. After all, they are 36 and 38 if I remember correctly. They both have been through a lot, especially Rene... When they are finally together their love and trust to each other is really powerful, and you can really see it building bit by bit and how they change each other..... Sorry to tell you this but it can get really hardcore. There are part of the story that even I can't handle, and there is a side story that I think shouldn't exist.....Rene's been through A LOT and he is not always a cop......There are reasons he's knows Alex(that prostitute boy in the bar). There are rapes, gang bang, torture, and sexual abuse and Rene is involved. Some of them are pretty detailed. But they are not the focus of the story. You can get a glimpse of it once prologue is done. That's if you're still willing to keep reading...... About the case of Young, Rene is kind of connected to it, but more like he's connected to everything and everyone in the story....I don't think he's directly related to the death of Young, though. Sorry the story is really long and complicated that I can't remember some details....
Does Renne ever cry due to hi past and Anton goes and takes care of him? The story seems dark o.o (but i like this kind of dark) ...at least all the bad events are in the past?
It's not my preference but I'm glad someone (poke @SummerX ) is translating it for all those who like them. Let there be a variety on NU \o/
