I’m relieved that through reading this I’ve found that I’m not a shallow person. Because tho the Duke as his younger self is drawn in an aesthetically pleasing way, his character has made him as appealing to me as wooden post.
Story wise I appreciate that he’s a genuine evil pos and that they’ve kept that. In most of these type stories the father is just misunderstood and it’s up to the child to become a totally different person or ‘fix him’ for their relationship to improve(YIKES authors)
Or the father is still the bad guy but he’s at the level of a Scooby-Doo villain and it kinda takes away from the catharsis to see the dudes thwarted by MC in one chapter.
I mean it makes sense because in real life the people that pray on the vulnerable they have power over are pathetic loser cowards but in the stories they don’t really frame the narrative that way.
If they do go down that line of the MC going back and realizing what a lame pos their father is it’s usually comes across as more of victim shaming. Especially if it’s a transmigration MC in a new body.
So yeah keep this guy evil and destroy everything he holds dear ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
