You know think about it, the only reason he went to the celebration cuz alicia was there, in the books scenario, alicia never had a big role so there is a chance he woukdve never gone to the celebration if it was the book
and also he knows ediths true nature after the earring incident sooooooooo makes sense why hes an ass to her
You’re right...Well since Edith has already shown signs of being scheming and manipulative, it wouldn’t be a surprised if the meeting had been planned. There is a lot Alicia doesn’t know yet, and a lot the readers don’t know yet either so we’ll have to wait and see
True. But Edith had already showed her crush on Ares before, when they were discussing the celebration. And Ares seemed to know who Edith was both when Alicia mentioned her and when Edith talked to him at the celebration. And considering that he seems to be the hero of the empire (by Kai's reactions), it wouldn't make sense for him to have never at least ran into the princess in the palace, as he probably had to go there to talk to the previous emperor.
That's what I don't get. They clearly met before, so what changed on that meeting in the woods? Did Edith really felt bad for all the killings and became more mature? Did Ares just felt bad for her? Was he using her to get Kai out of the throne and then fell in love for real?
True ╮(￣▽￣)╭
i think that he fucked her like hd did with alicia and wanted to take responsibilities like any decent man should do (unless like nowadays they love one night stands) and edith just took advantage of that
Makes sense.
There is something bothering me. Edith seems hopelessly in love with Ares while he doesn't even look at her twice. Isn't it incompatible with how things were supposed to go in the book? Or is this the earlier version of the book? Did the MC cause a butterfly effect this strong simply by existing?
Ok, so in the finished book Edith and Ares were supposed to get together after Kai became a tyrant. Ares would find her crying in the woods, promise to help her and eventually they would get together and fuck like rabbits. Now Ares has already decided to take responsibility for Alicia's lost virginity.
But shouldn't he at least consider Edith? Something like "Wow, she is also beautiful! Too bad I already have someone!" He didn't even look at her! It can't be just looks, Alicia and Edith are on the same level. Is it because she was too interested in him? But Alicia also showed interest in him on their first meeting (out of interest but that's not the point). So why?
And if this was already the relationship between Edith and Ares, what changed in the book to make him give her a chance? Did he feel sorry for her? And if Edith had already been in love with him for years, was that meeting in the woods staged?
What do you think?
