Enjoyed it more near the end

So glad this is one of the stories where the FL can stand on equal ground as the ML. I've read enough manhwa here to know when something is tagged "Strong Female Lead" it doesn't always mean Strong Female Lead. She's strong AND (technically) smart. Was kind of losing interest in the first third of the story because development was so slow. But it really ramped up later.

**Spoilers**

Kyle's jealously is a bit annoying and the only way she acts upon it is to lock her up?? Like, he can't trust her around ANYONE no matter how many times she reassures him. He probably trusts her more going into war and coming back alive, than her being faithful to him. lol

Deloah had zero character development from start to end. She was so set on her goal I feel she would do it again if given the chance. I do feel sorry for Izak, since they were forced to marry. She has yet to fall in love with him. My hope is that she uses her brain and he uses his strength and kindness to reform the city they live in and they bond over that.

I'm glad they got rid of Joe's telepathy. It was getting redundant. haha Loved the fact that she trained and basically became one of the best swordsmen that can hold her own ground and way more. Though, she went from being the worst to the best a little too fast in my opinion. Also happy that she put some thought into it and decided not to remain stable boy.

The people that instantly figured out Joe was a woman, that was way too convenient for the for the plot. Like they just knew she was a woman instead of finding it out some other way. Part of me believes that it wouldn't even matter if she was an actual guy and this was basically a BL. haha Whether Blaine even had a crush on Joe at all wouldn't matter, because Kyle would have made him help Joe anyways. Deloah never brought up the fact that she's a woman or used it against her. Theo would have still fallen for Joe. Snow wouldn't have treated her any differently then if she was a man. Isabella, well she was designed to be obsessed with Joe no matter what. The dude and his men at the fortress when she went to save Blaine, dead. Plus, Kyle still blushed when she's in new, fancy male attire. Plus, when Kyle is Emperor, who is going to stop him from marrying man or woman?
