Yes, mc having a goal outside of the ml and growing in that important position of his own right and ability would have been amazing. We could even address the ml's insecurity when he angrily asked if he wasn't good enough because he is a commoner.
Exactly, there’s so much they could have done and a lot of unfinished storylines but alas
I wish he would have accepted to be the princess personal knight. The combination of him being his childhood hero plus his boss leads to an unhealthy dynamic where he always idolizes him and doesn’t really see him as a person outside of that. There’s nothing that he would do to him (except maybe stab him) that would make him be like “oh maybe he’s not 100% perfect”
They address this slightly with him feeling unworthy/unsure of his feelings about him but even that is brushed off.
It’s only 25 chapters so I don’t expect it to be a fully fleshed out story. But I think it sacrifices any depth to the characters for a cute fluff story which is fine I guess.
