tbh it doesn't describe how the 'original novel' was written, i mean usually some mangas tend to reveal the characters past in the beginning or like somewhere around there, so i guess i thought they would have mentioned something like that ( especially reincarnation mangas) also it mentioned the magic dude trying to brainwash the emperor and then him telling her to die for him (which we saw her getting dragged away, which obviously meant she was going to die) at this point in the novel before the villain dies wouldn't the past of the 'hero' and 'villain' already be revealed. I mean the past of the hero which begins the story of revenge soon changes to love after meeting the 'one' and then having to kill the villain that tries to separate them.
like most of the scenes that we saw in the original novel was the relationship with the blond dude and the girl and the mc being told to die. Like it first mentioned something about everyone thinking that Ed would be the black haired dude but then skipped straight to the mc being dragged away....like??? what??? also when it said chapter 51 'the truth' i thought it would reveal who Ed was..instead it was about why the black haired guy was acting that way and doing what he was doing. So obviously at this point his past would be revealed.
like...ugh i'm so confused rn

lmaooooo i got lost at some point...but also it's confusing? like since she drank the memory potion and re-read the novel would'nt the novel mention something about the black haired dude's family (like since it clearly plays a huge part in why he acts this way) and the mc could have also fixed the misunderstanding between the other 2 couples...like since she already knows about them. There are so many things that could be fixed if they just talked it out...i don't know where this story is going....( ̄∇ ̄")
