One thing that I really don't understand is WHY? I mean, they could tell the same storie about them without she being a minor. There is a lot of mangas who aproach age gap with both protagonists being adults and there is other stuff in this too which didn't depend on she being underage. I mean... again, WHY? It is really necessary? It botthers me a LOT!

I kind of like it at first because the diferent aproach to the MC, but the plot is SO CONFUSE!! I readed half of the chapters and I couldn't figure it out anything other than she has to go to the ball with the duke and in the original story she died by his hand. That's it. She has a bad temper, but I don't see anything being used. The confrontantion with the duke's cousin for instance, they never show it clearly, and we didn't even know where did she run to and how that girl found her so easy and quickly. Other than this, all the characters looks like they are 12!!!! The MC's father you could said look like he is 15. I don't know, everything except for the premise made me drop this.

I'm kind of getting scared about their relationship... I mean, he is becoming obsessed with her in a not very healthy way. She can't do anything without him knowing and even when she tells people about something they don't respect her and tell the duke (yes, I'm talking about the buttler since she told him the duke already knew and he still told him like her word wasn't valid). You can say is romantic but for me it's turning out pretty creepy.

The yandere trope is only romantic and working when the partner of the yandere love him back and kinda don't mind being controled after all. If feelings were not reciprocated or the partener finaly wanted to break the relationship it would quickly turn into a very disturbing tell. Well, in the novel he never crossed a red line (be it bbecause he decided to respect her wishes or because he didn't have to yield) so who knows for this one.

I started reading but I can't anymore. It's so frustating and it doesn't make any sense! You barely get to know the MC to feel empathetic towards her so the only feeling that I get is anger and discomfort! I mean, the bitch can control people (the black haired) so it makes sense they send her to the crown's princess selection, BUT WHY THE HELL THE MC ACCEPT TO BE HER MAID AND TREAT HER LIKE SHE IS SUPERIOR???? I wouldn't say anything if it was something like a lady-in-waiting situation, but they are, theoretically, sisters, so WHY SHE WOULD GO AND JUST ACCEPT? And don't give me that bullshit about "we always pay our debts"-ish because she didn't give them that money for free, SHE EXCHANGED FOR BEING ADOPTED AND FOR THE INVITATION!! She even get to send their biological daughter to live IN THE ATTIC!!!! What kind of nonsense is that argumment about repaying her???? I already saw the spoilers and I don't give a damn about the black haired's true intentions since envolve being a bitch to the MC for no reason at all!

I don't like any of the characters. She is in a abusive relationship so I understand a lot of what she is been through, but I don't think the manga is trying to show us her getting throw it, but the ex being her hero and I hate this. Her husband is dreadful and her ex is so pushy. The best thing would be her getting a grip to her life again, persuing her dreams and then entering another relationship, a healthy one this time. But this type of manga don't know what healthy relationships are, so problably she will cheat her husband with her ex, she will finally decide to break off with him, the husband will try to kill her because of it and her ex will show up to save the day. I can be wrong, but I don't thinlk so.

So... There are some pretty big spoilers bellow (about the novel, not the manga)

Alright, the real antagonist is her father. Because of the neutrality he demands his family to have, he NEVER interfere with anything, including his daughter execution. The thing is, before that, he had 2 wifes and the family of the second one plot to kill the first one, who was pregnant with Cosette. He didn't do anything even knowing all about it and the first wife end up running away and giving birth, but her daughter was born dead so she did a pact with a demon and trade her soul to make her daughter live and get revenge to the Parvis family. In the end, the demon possesses Cosette's body since she was dead already and plot with the first wife's brother to get the revenge. In the original story line (that we already saw in the webtoon) Cosette can do magic (the demon actually) and end up kind of stealling the manifestation that Kiera had and showing that day. The thing is, the Water spirit demands that their children (the spirit's users) were loved and care for, in this case is Kiera and after they kill her the world turn in to hell due to their fury. Oh, and the father voted to kill Kiera to remaing 'neutral' since Cosette was the one who show the manifestation. In the reincarnate story line the plot remains almost the same, but since her attitudes changes throught the course, her father starts to 'care' and wishes she would treat him like a father. Cosette end up showing her habilities first, throw magic and mimic the Water Spirit (even tho Kiera manifestate) and the end is kind of open, with Kiera and her Brother going on trips to explore the world together.
No, there is no romance and no ML in the original novel.
My reading list rn have 270 titles, so I'm doing some clean up. This one are going to the dropped list since is kind of meh. The art is ok but nothing impressive and the storie is so tiresome. I read all the chapters and I just can relate to any characters.
