Can anyone tell me why the ML is bad again? lol I forgot

It's been a while since I read this, but here's what I remember. He talks conscendingly to her sometimes, he purposely stepped on her injured foot hard one time, he also left her alone in some sketchy night club where she could've gotten raped. Also he's just a fucking asshole with an attractive face. If it wasn't for that and his skills, he'd be a nobody.

I think one of the worst things about him is that he lacks empathy. In the latest chapter, he doesn't understand why Adele is putting a wall against him and has to ask her why she despises him WHEN HE WAS THE ONE WHO DID ALL THOSE HURTFUL SHIT TO HER. LIKE MAN, IS IT NOT OBVIOUS THAT LITERALLY ANYONE WOULD HATE YOUR GUTS OR PLAN YOUR MURDER AFTER DOING ALL THAT CRAP??? WHY IS HE SO STUPID

real, and I think he knows why she hates him but he wants her to say it- to argue with him so he can justify his shitty actions and maybe even manipulate her. he knows he’s charming and can get what he wants with a few words, so the fact that he can’t make her emotional and then take the position of the ‘rational’ one with false logic and answers that seemingly oppose her emotions - is messing with him

Of course I think you shouldn’t joke like that lol, but I’m glad he knew right after he messed up on it and immediately felt the need to comfort or give her space due to that. It means he’s receptive and respects her emotions and knows her to a degree.
I could just be overthinking it lol, but it’s a good trait to have when you know when to back off, especially when funnily enough, he stubbornly beat the shit out of some random NPC just moments ago LOL
This is mainly a psychological sorts of manhwa. Definitely not for those trying to read for the romance of it lol. Pretty fucked up, and they took away the best character in here ToT
