fr, the only blameless one here is the fl. her parents both suck ass, her cousin (michael) has as much emotional intelligence as a tick even if he doesn't intend bad, he's clumsy as best and the prince (supposed ml) is a selfish biy who uses guilt and pity to convince the fl to spend time with together

If not the childcare why wont he just find out the truth? I mean i understand that he closed off his emotions but if a kid from your ex lover come to you and told you"hey dad i am your child" first thing you will do is find out truth not let it stay near you and plan to unalived it whenever you feel bored. This is why Claude is better than this dude. Claude forgets everything yet he still treats athy fine when he met her for the first time.

but thats the thing, this proof lies within the mom's. the mom told him that she doesnt love him, cuts him then leaves, he doesnt she loves him, making him think that isnt his child. yall expect him to break his back trying to figure out if that his child but how? go to the dragon tribe and ask, knowing they hate humans? the dad doesnt even abuse or physically hurt the fl. yall have unreal expectations for him and it shows

i agree with you in that it wrong for him to treat her like trash, but its almost like he locked away hsi emotions. that has been stated multiple times. he treats everyone like that, and yes it isnt right but yall cant expect him to magically change bc he say the fl. which he fully believes that isnt his child. if some random child knocks on your door, proclaiming that they're youre child but you never did it with anyone, you WOULD be suspicious, you would be warry, you would be confused, you would not have a postive reaction to the child so lets not expect the dad to have apsotive reaction to the fl

he locked away his emotions. he cant feel shit and if he can its nothing positive. yes, its fucked up but thats how it is. he was abandon and hurt by the person he loved yet yall expect him to be all fatherly to a child he's 100% sure is not his (that also looks like the ex who mentally destroyed him) you wouldnt even have a positive reaction to the child if you were in his situation, so lets not expect him to do so.

not even talking about if the child is his or not
he's an asshole point blank. let's not forget that he is also michael's guardian's and uncle but he never raised him, he let him fend for himself too. he's just a trashy and paranoid piece of shit that thinks the worse of everyone to justify him treating ppl like shit and that is incapable of controlling the mages in his tower. bc if you're a good leader, the ppl under you wouldn't even attempt to kidnap a child to use them as an experiment subjects.

Yep he didn't, he just look at her like he wants her dead. You see i've been reading this type of father and i usually gave them their chance to prove themselves but man this father cant even protect his own niece, almost trued to kill his daughter without reason, he turned a blind eye when a misconduct happened on his territory. A simple human decency doesnt need a full package of emotion to do, okay? You don't need to love someone to treat them like human being. And what makes it more stupid is "he closed off his emotions" yet he felt anger and hatred? Aren't these 2's are also emotions? Really? What's the point of closing your emotions if you are angry to everyone you meet? Pissed is also an emotion. Am i missing something?

That's why i said he should look for answers, he is a grand mage he can kill a dragon of he wants, it not like dragons are all powerful in this series, he can go to them and find out the truth. It's just that he doesn't want to, he hates the mother who abandoned him and he is trying to project it to the child which is not good. No matter what you guys say i am done with this sht of father.
all this bc the fl's mother didn't want to die in front of him, without thinking that he'd take it as a betrayal (also how can she just slice him up like tofu like that?) and that she'll leave her daughter in a hostile environment after her death and that he'll hate her and their daughter.
honestly, the father is trash, but the bigger idiot and trashier one is the mother. she's actually brainless. what did she think? that he'd understand where she's coming from and still believe in her love after she sliced him up? that he'll love their daughter regardless of how he thinks of her? she's insane and she can't even respond to her sins bc she's dead.
