people keep calling MC dumb/s*upid in the story (really it's just the butler and aunt) but I feel he's pretty smart? maybe a bit reckless lol but not entirely s*upid. don't get it... MC ab*se! lol

but I don't understand besides the fact that the author likes it or it would gather a lot of I guess response from the readers.. besides that fact I don't understand it for the plot wise based on preconditions they already set up which is like this is you know an evolution and he's leveling up to become more advanced than humans because of some reason which we will know later I assume which I did not get there because I dropped the novel right? So there's that caveat which I am leaving. But I still don't understand and maybe the world's going to go to sh*t and so it will become necessary but I personally think there is no reason for him to have a tail. Evolutionarily in this society unless the whole world breaks down and becomes a forest which could happen I don't know I didn't read any further... It is not beneficial for him. Unless aliens are going to come or other animals are going to come and or other animals are going to evolve where they become a threat... I don't get why he needs a snake tail. I don't get it. Like does a snake move that much faster than legs? Does a snake tail hit that much harder? Of course he hits harder but that's because he obviously his cells changed and he became stronger but was that necessary for a tail like you know what I mean?

I actually took like evolutionary anthropology so or biological anthropology so I just... I'm just trying to wrap my head around it you know.... Like this is a society unless the society breaks down completely where we don't have inconveniences for animals like stairs or elevators or just like pathways or cars or whatever... Like these are more efficient no? Am I crazy. Like I don't get it. But maybe of course like I said because I didn't finish the whole novel the whole world's going to break down and this tail thing will make sense or the author will make it make sense because they have to to be a good author or whatever even though I don't think it does whatever. I'm sure the author will make some plot to make it make sense. But I think considering how they set up the book logic up until now I was totally like leaning into it and I think that's really interesting.. And maybe I'm just too much of like oh humans are too powerful and thinking that a snake couldn't be more powerful or be more efficient or whatever.. But like I just I can appreciate a snake I just don't understand the snake tail like I genuinely don't. Whatever

I don't really understand why you need to breed.. I think there is just too much importance on snakes in this world that doesn't quite make sense. I get it and I'm fine with that premise. But I think a little extreme. But even then that's okay. But I think for me the final straw legitimately was him contemplating breeding venomous snakes to sell venom for money. I mean I'm only getting to like the ideation phase but the fact that it was even brought up to him and that he's thought about it at least two times before... Makes me think that this is inevitable and I think it's s*upid. There's something about this idea that I don't like. I think it's like a weird idea and just feels like oh yeah this is what the author thought was good to do next but I don't think so? I think there's something like not congruent about it. It just feels like oh this is for fun. Like this isn't a real plot anymore for me. There's something that made that unserious to me like this plot was serious to me until this moment for some reason. And that's disappointing to me and therefore I just felt like you know what this book is not for me I don't think it's as serious I thought as I thought it was I don't think it's as interesting as it thought it was..... Yeah whatever. So that's why I was like I don't know not for me.
