Glad to see someone trying to make such a work, but the figures don't work well for me. Spit looking like paint, as someone said, and Lawine often looking like a blow-up doll. The contrast with the detail of the room is striking, though, especially the sensuality of https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/kawine#4 with the actual bodies nearly lost among all the curves of the ornamentation.
But I wonder if I should suspect cheating on all that detail work.
I'm not sure if it's considered cheating, but from what it looks it's probably 3D assets with a filter for the background. A lot of tools are available for mangakas and comic artists for easier backgrounds (such as sketchfab) and clip studio paint has this feature baked into the application. I do agree that it looks quite jarring. Usually people trace the 3D model to achieve a more natural look or edit the filtered image to suit their style.

As for your other comments... Same. It is quite jarring and the figures are quite odd. I did really like the beginning though with Kanne rizzing Lawine up.
edit: looked at the author's other work. I see now why I had a weird sense that the faces looked uncomfortably childlike for my tastes...
