Mmm

Is this going to have side stories? If anyone read the whole novel spoiler for me what is happening next please

when he goes back. He doesn't go back to the palace or even tell garon he's there. He moves back to the mountain, the old imae village and garon finds him there - he's been affected by the poison, isn't quite as he was. He visits mc oftenvand they take things slower and eventually he is convinced back to the palace after garon is just, nice to him. He stops the murder sprees and just tries to be good basically. Gives him a whole room to paint in and all the kit, there's no restrictions on him, all the concubines are moved out I believe. I dunno, it's bare minimum stuff but a nice enough ending. Raon gets sides. Garon also picked a name for mc, some fluff ensues.

Thank fucking God, not reading this after finding out this bitch ass garon does the barely fucking minimum of being just nice to the Mc lmfao

So the emperor picks a name for raon and calls him that instead of the other name?? Lmao I knew mister emperor ain't calling him the name another man chose for him JSJSJSJJS

Basically they just don't address it or talk about it putright. Obvs garon can tell he was named and isn't happy but doesn't really acknowledge.it either - everyone knows not to call him roha in front of the emperor except the painter friend which is kind of funny. But no I dont think garon ever explicitly tells him he picked a name for him, but roha finds the notes about it. Garon just doesn't call him by any name.

Yeah it's kind of tragic. Best to be hoped for though cus what could he really do to make things right? Nothing really..

Towards the end it's almost like mc feels a sense of duty in making sure garon is placated because he's the only one who can stop him.... With sex.... yeah it's weird (￣∇￣")
