Give it time, I’m sure you’ll manage it.
Was going through my song archives and found this song which immediately made me think of this story.
Here’s the YouTube vid for the song. This is great song for Vengeance MC’s

Hey author. Are you going to write more about MCs past? Especially spicy stuff such as their, you know, wink wink love life? I mean, my MC is so flirty and smooth that I will not just accept it if we’re just a mere cherry boy🤣. You don’t have to say names since I think their exes are not important, just let us decide whether we can have past relationships or not. Or was Luka so protective that we cannot date till we reach 20?

You just put this image into my head of Luka calling a hit on your ex because they cheated on you or something.

Yeah. That anon ask together with the experience of RO ask, are the reasons why I asked my question about MCs experience
Iirc the author said on Tumblr once that it’s up to headcanon because it won’t come up?
Might be mistaken though

@TheZod Thank you so much! This’ll really help me! Also, it’ll really save me some time from skimming over articles online 
@RenataC Yes, I agree 
Also, thanks for reporting this! It should be fixed by next update!
@Dragonlord943 
Luka and Grandpa might have whole life insurance policies.
@bored92 
You make it sound like he wants MC to die for the life insurance 
@ChaosBringerXV Ooh yes! Someone also recommended me this song on my Tumblr ask a while back and it’s already in my playlist. I’ve been compiling songs from my playlist that I think will fit MC (mostly Vengeance MC because not a lot of songs have lyrics about someone trying to uphold justice )
I’m just gonna leave this one song in my playlist with Vendetta! as it’s title (the lyrics are a bit explicit, might not fit a certain MC lol)
Yeah, you’re right, @rkgk
@Crimson_Blood Right now, I haven’t had any plans yet, since I actually don’t really know where to slip in that choice or info in without it being too awkward (after all, this is still an action story at its core ). I might need to see once I get to the romance part, but I won’t force it if it kinda sticks out awkwardly 
But for now, you’re free to headcanon it.
He might send some people to tail that person to make sure they’re not cheating on MC and to find out more about them. What if they just want to use MC? Or maybe hurt them and the Family? That person better be prepared to have their whole history researched. Also, may God have mercy on their soul if they ever cheat or hurt MC.
For anyone interested in reading the ROs + Luka and Viktor’s reactions to them and MC running into MC’s ex who broke their heart, check it out here.

The variety of personalities in this story is pure insanity! I can’t get enough of playing around with this demo while on bed rest. Pal, I am so very, very thankful that you have blessed us with this masterpiece at the risk of losing your sanity with what must be a nightmare of coding. A thousand blessings your way, author-chan.

You know, when I was re-reading this the other day. Considering one of the powers we can invest into is the Shadows based one and the fact we could choose vengeance / revenge. I was picturing what my MC might be like in the future when they get crazy strong. And I couldn’t help but hear Penumbra, the track that plays for the final boss of Judgement in my head.
It was nice to be reminded of because I forgot how good that song is.

@lokis_hairgel Thank you for the blessings 
I was already losing my sanity over writing the massive amount of variations for Part 2 of Chapter 3. Thankfully, I came out a victor
@Kanaya Ooh nice one! I’ve never played the game before, but the soundtrack you linked, it sounds so sinister. I can totally see it becoming a theme for Ruthless and High Umbrakinesis MC! Also, I think I did put ‘Penumbra’ as an option for MC’s callsign/codename.

Chapter 3 Part 2 – Patreon Early Access Live! 
Hey guys 
last night, I’ve finally uploaded the second and final part for Chapter 3 over on Patreon for all patrons to enjoy early 
There are around 33.5K of new words added, which brings the total word count for the entire Chapter 3 to 58.7K words!
I honestly didn’t expect it to be bigger than the entirety of Chapter 2, but in hindsight, it makes sense since I had to wrote a ton of variations for this part (5 execution scenes and 8 fight action scenes 
which almost drove me insane to write 
). Also, I’m excited because readers will get to meet a certain someone in this part 
As for those who will be waiting for the public release, mark your calendar because it’ll be coming on October 30th, right on the 12 AM mark (GMT +8) 
I’ve also just uploaded a Sneak Peek for Chapter 3 Part 2 over on my Tumblr. It’s long so I’ll just link the Tumblr Post.

Yeah, the guy it plays for… He just wants you dead. And he’s going to enjoy killing you.
I mean, it fits Umbrakinesis. I’ll probably use it lmao.

I’ve finally got to read chapters 2 and early part of chapter 3! I must say, I have already developed soft spot for this book because of great slavic representation. And there’s also your really great writing to enjoy, with a lot of small, but neat details! Very well done, at least for the moment. Antagonist’s POV is really interesting.
You saw Ash flinched as he was addressed directly. “Y—yes, Dedushka Pavel.” His voice quivered a bit but still interlaced with a note of deference.
“No need to be so… stiff. I heard you are a close and loyal companion to my grandson. You may call me Ded Pavel if you want to… When there is no one else around, of course.”
This part made me kinf of confused. “Dedushka” is usually more non-comformal, personal and soft variation of “Ded”. Or maybe I understood wrong? This is a very small nitpic tho.
“Nu, pizdets…” your uncle cursed softly.
okay that made me laugh aloud despite the context. Good choice.

It’s funny because two people (you and one on tumblr) have said this, while one other said they opposite. I was under the impression “ushka” at the end was diminutive or affectionate (not sure of the terminology).

“Dedushka” is more personal term than “Ded”. It is also very unpolite to call an unfamiliar man “Ded” right in his face. But after meeting, he may allow you to call him “Dedushka”, even if he is not your relative. These are very complex subtleties in fact, if we consider it from the side of another language.
There is also a variant of “Deda”, which is usually said by small children because they cannot pronounce “Dedushka”.
Dedushka or Deda is usually your grandfather
Ded is usually some random old man
Yeah

Thank you for the kind words! 
I’m really glad you’re enjoying the story so far!
He knows he f*cked up, even though it’s not really his fault.
@AAChmielewski @Phantasm-twin I’m still a bit confused about this There has been like an almost 50/50 split response and advice regarding the usage of “Ded” and “Dedushka”. I think it might be a matter of personal preference maybe? The two Russian native speakers I’ve asked for advice about this both agree that they usually used “Ded” when talking to their grandfathers.
But I’ve also gotten one or two asks on Tumblr about it being weird and that people usually use “Dedushka” instead and also another ask saying that yeah, it might be weird for some, but they also use “Ded” to call their grandpa.
I think what I might do is just change them all to “Dedushka”, just to prevent some more confusion. Thank you for the input

Agree, totally.
I used that as an adult lmao… It depends on the family.
Fun little thing: you can use Ded as a nickname to a young person in certain conditions.
I think it really depends on family. I used to live with my grandparents from my mother’s side and I used “deda” or “dedushka” only, while reffering to my granddad from my father’s side as Ded because I never liked him.
I think it sounds better, myself!

I think from the car alone if we choose the Bugatti divo Santana would never be able to afford it like ever considering their lousy pay and job going nowhere. So will they treat MC as a spoiled mafia prince/princess richboy/girl when we met them? If it’s not a spoiler? @jsc
@Phantasm-twin @AAChmielewski I think I’m gonna use “Deda” for the flashback scene when MC was still a little kid because it just sounds adorable for little MC to call the big, tall, and intimidating Grandpa “Deda” 
But for when MC is already an adult, they’ll call Grandpa “Dedushka” instead.
@Sakura_Higanbana28 Hmmm 
I don’t think so. I think they’ve always been the type of person that try not to (and also don’t like) to judge people so quickly based on such superficial stuff. They’ll always try to be open and give a chance to get to know the person more before forming a definite opinion or image of that person in their mind.
Although, that’s not saying that they don’t have any inherent biases in their mind, but they try their best not to let them influence their views of someone. Also, right now, being a rich person doesn’t really sit at the top of the list of biases that they’ll judge you over; there’s something else at the top of that list for them currently… Even though they don’t like to admit it 
I can’t really say exactly how they will react when they first meet MC currently, but they definitely won’t be treating them like a spoiled rich kid, especially if MC doesn’t really display the act of being like the stereotype rich kid (and I don’t think MC does, I hope…? )
