but he’s her knight?? he’s supposed to take of her. he’ll always take care of her. also it’s not like he had feelings for her when she was a child. he only began to have feelings for her as she grew into being an adult. which is normal??? HE NEVER GROOMED HER. it’s quite evident that he never wants to act on his feelings of love: he’s just confused and wants no harm to come to her. why does everyone hate him omg

As her personal knight he did watch over her as one plus he did what he could. However, it’s a big age gap. I don’t know exactly how many years, but I’m going to assume like 7 or 9 and that’s kinda creepy if you think of what his actual age may be now. Emiel has to be somewhere in his thirties by now while Estelle is in her late teens and at most her early twenties.

From what I've read in comments it can be 4-5+ years in age gap. Personally I have no issue my age limit is 5 older or younger if I date, but even that is pushing it for me. Anything beyond that I can see where they are coming from it seems a bit strange and can put a lot off. You are seeing a child more or less, with an adult or someone you consider an adult that should be taking care of her - but not having those types of feelings.
wait people don’t like emiel?? and for what?? he just found out he’s in love with the girl he once thought of as a child and is conflicted. plus, he only ever looks out for her. what’s there not to like? he’s human.
