honestly let’s forget he’s a king he’s a complete failure as a friend. he should know navi better bc she’s not someone who just sits around waiting. if he wanted to keep her as a empress to reinstate later on he should’ve told her... and that in itself is a bit of a trash move so now he’s failed as a human being, a husband, an ex-husband, and as a friend... yikes (o_o)

*ch. 21 spoiler*
so did elle think his birth mom (mc) killed ex fiancé?

no when he said "i grew up thinking that the person who killed my birth mother is my real mother" he meant that he grew up thinking that the person, the girl with a black hair, who killed his birthmother, reina our fl, was his mom but it was actually the one who murdered his birthmother (including the father bcs he neglected our fl so hes kinda yk.. guilty as well)

ok so mc couldn’t even take care of her child what right does she think she has if she can’t even touch her own child? u just gonna stare at the baby? wtf and ml is so wrong for giving the baby to ex fiancée like hello??? did it not ring any alarm bells sir?? crazy how they both r so wrong this is truly fitting of the drama tag !!

Ok so she was abused by her father and made her depressed thinking she was a "cursed" person and as a mother she thought that if she touches her son he would also be "cursed" and many unfortunate events will happen leading in MC avoiding her child in hopes of not spreading her "curse".
Im not saying that her avoiding her child is okay but lets atleast try to understand that MC was in her lows in the past life and was trying her best to do what she thought was right as a "cursed" person which was to not expose him to herself.
When she refused to hold her son the ML naturally thought that she hated El and took him away to care for him. Although we hate the ML for that but I think it was the right choice at the time since if he thought that Mc hated El then he probably believes that El's life would be in danger from lack of supervision or possibly abuse.
Although this is just my opinion so you are free to think otherwise `;:゛;`;・(°ε° )

So you do realize you just literally explained to me why I should hate the ML here (and love the ML from I'm a Stepmother but my Daughter is just too Cute) even more not less, right?
This ML didn't do things because he thought the opposite would be considered abuse like the ML in IaSbmDiJtC did. The FL DID think touching her son as a cursed person is abusive.
This ML ignored her even though he was the one who told her that she shouldn't pay attention to the criticisms surrounding her. The criticisms that didn't stop just because she ignored them and just because she moved to his residence. Things he SHOULD have been aware of. So he should have realized his first comments were completely useless and unhelpful. Which would also not only render a strategy of ignoring someone to 'protect' them utterly deserving of ridicule but also point to how that strategy to 'protect' her is the largest contribution to the reason why she refused to hold her son.
Yeah he's a pos like I and others have been saying.

I understand your point since thats the reason why I hated him too.
I just pointed out how I thought his decision to take El away was imo the right choice at the time considering the MC was mentally unstable(?) And was probably not in the condition to take care of her child due to her fear and trauma but I'm not ignoring the fact that ML played a part in her judgement and not letting her see the child was too much.
Well anyways I didnt leave details on my previous comment about the ML since I was focused on what OP said about the MC and El so your comment was a nice addition to my list of "why I hate the ML"

just saw this so im v late but i understand why the ml took elle away but the act of letting his ex fiancé take care of Elle was the thing that really bothered me!
In the context the ml had some concept the mc wasn’t emotionally or mentally capable of truly taking care and loving herself (and she couldn’t really take care of her child bc of it) he should’ve been able to recognize the actual action of giving the child to the ex fiancé would be harmful to mc!
if he left elle with a nanny or even someone else it would’ve made much more sense and wouldn’t have been as mentally tolling. it would also make him a little less hateful imo bc it would seem that he is taking elle away bc he believes mc can’t take of him, but the act of giving elle to the fiancé just made him seem spiteful. this is just my opinion though im curious how this will continue moving forward (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
so they were eloping and then all of a sudden the demon king thought it would be a good idea for the demon perusing his daughter to kill her true lover right in front of her? what betrayal? the human lover was doing just fine?????? demons were in the wrong for this one and somehow blame the humans? on like one of the only things they did okay on? like you had all that dirt and u chose this ?? mind boggling (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
