    Read it again and use that brain of yours to know why she's that way.

    Somebody please kill this man!! And I'm pretty sure his deck is also black from all that black magic he consumed

    girl so what? She literally got teleported into his lair and it's black magic they're up against. The fuck she gonna do? She's already hurt and tired from fighting, you're gonna expect her to be a mary sue now? Like y'all and your internal misogyny are getting out of hand

    Hey guys, what’s with being so salty lmao ?? I’m just asking why the author put her in a situation that she has to be rescued out of? If the whole point of the story is having a fl that can fight and be strong, I would expect that character to be able fight the antagonist at the climax. I’m not saying the situation she’s in doesn’t make sense, I’m upset at the author for making a strange choice with her characterization. I just think it’s a pity that she can’t fight her way out of it without being assisted by the ml. I don’t think she should be a Mary sue, but I just think it’s wasted potential. Also the attempted sexual assault came out of left field

    Inner misogyny is crazy…is it wrong for me to want her to beat his ass? I feel like we’re all rooting for someone here…and it’s not the crown prince.

    You never consumed any real piece of media? A classic trope of a hero story is, that we always have a point where the hero who did everything alone realises that they are not omnipotent and have this "stronger together" or "lean on loyal friends" or "Heros need help, too" moment. It is normal okay. Nobody can be 100% always, even a "strong fl". There is nothing bad about her having a moment where she shows how human she is and how she needs help like any human sometimes does. This does not break her characters integrity. How old are you pls? Humans are not one way, so are characters not. They are not one dimensional. Dafuq...

    Alright, this is a fair point, but I feel like this has been explored extensively in the plot already. There has been multiple moments where she realises she can rely on the ml and other characters. I’m just trying to say there could be alternative ways she could have been collaborating with the ml to defeat the antagonist, rather than being saved, and then assisting the ml. I haven’t read past the latest chapter so I wouldn’t go as far as to say that she wouldn’t have a part in killing or subduing the antagonist. Rather than being one dimensional, I just think the author is inconsistent with the characterization. Well these are just my thoughts, i wouldn’t really care about being proven right or wrong, it’s just interesting how invested we are in this argument.

    You are absolutely right!! Speak your truth! The fact is, misogyny is still pretty rampant that most people WANT and LIKE the ML saving the FL. They still do believe that the ML should be 'protecting' the FL. That's just what sells. People just aren't ready/don't like a world where gender roles are completely nonexistent. Especially in this genre where it such a staple.

    Right? Actually with all this religious devotion she’s shown through the manhwa, I was expecting her to be the one with Holy powers or smt - or at least that both the prince and her got them to defeat the priest ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

    her character was never like that tho, she never had a problem relying on others and the story never made that into her characterization so you are just kind of pulling a trope thats just not in her character therefore it doesnt apply here

    facts, making ML save her at the climax in a atory abt a FL who can fight and has protected her people for years is a CHOICE, a very disappointing choice. not saying FL has to be flawless but this was a really shit way to show that, ML never has a moment like this the entire story (so far)
