Bland. The story and romance are rushed and the characters are bland. The ML is overpowered and the FL is useful but always puts herself down/is extremely humble. I get the reason why, I just find it annoying. She's definitely very Japanese.

The MC's so clueless that it's annoying, I'm guessing the "Hero" used some charm spell or something like that to make her fall for him, so lets ignore that part, but she's constantly denigrating herself, she takes crap from everyone, she's taken advantage even when selling her superb medicine and she's supposed to have been with the hero party for 2 years yet knows absolutely nothing of the adventurer's life.
It's sort of a fable, there's the bad monster (the hero) and then after the suffering she gets to know the shinning prince that falls for her in one chapter, she realizes her narrow mindedness dispelling the spell and starts to accept herself for what she is, slowly till she gets to confront his fears and enemies.
I wanted to wait till the prologue was done to drop it to see where it went from there, yet how did the story progress? Well an irritating fellow appeared out of nowhere and declared that the FL needed to prove herself or leave the ML, because... no reason, because he's annoying, so what does the MC do? well of course, try to prove herself... ok, that's it.
In short, it's very childish, the antagonist are bad because... no reason, the story is very shallow and the characters are annoying.
Dropped, maybe for teens it might be better.

WARNING cus there's psychological, emotional abuse (and physical later on) for any interested readers with those triggers. (It's ok the abuser gets caught and jailed >:( good.) Just putting here in case u know. 

Story is pretty good and a nice plot, with realistic ish character development. However, I do agree with another reviewer who said that the pacing of the manga is rather fast in some parts and could actually be drawn out a bit more. Apart from that though, I'm fascinated by how the story has progressed so far, with some twists and turns that keep you wondering and guessing.

Really, really rushed.  A good premise, but rushed and compressed to the point that there could’ve been an entire, long series from start to finish in the first 8 chapters.  Or at least ‘Season 1’ of a series.  Backstory, conflict, conflict resolution- all crammed into an itty bitty little living space.  Can’t say much else without spoiling it, though.
