Thank you for the link! I also appreciate the spoiler, it does suck he goes back to Garon, I swear only one BL I ever read had it where the MC chose the second lead and it was heartbreaking because the ML was a sweetheart and so in love. All I can think is when it should happen why don't any of these authors do the same!?

I know a few chapters back he did kind of seem like he was giving in to his very conflicted feelings towards Garon, but that doesn't make the end of this chapter any less confusing. A part of me thinks it's simply because while all he did want was revenge, whatever affection he was given by Garon made the blood lust he once had towards him just disappear. So in the end he didn't want his death, he truly just wanted his acknowledgement that the heinous shit he'd done was bad and that he does feel regret, at least when it comes to the MC (did he ever get a name?) and the killing of his mother. Thus is why I hate the second lead thing so much, Raon did so much for him, he genuinely seemed like he had equally fallen in love so why was he swayed in such a way towards the end. Idk if the manhwa has done a good job with this adaptation since I know this is originally a novel, but man... also does anyone have the link to the novel? If you wouldn't mind sharing the link
