okay let's be real the arth is not a good leader i mean he would be a good captain of guard at most or a commander but as a ruler he's seriously lacking like how he let's daerin do most of the brain work and decision making and solely relies on him to make his decisions into making him into a good leader. my dude these aren't leader qualitites. daerin is the leader here.
that was the point. merls control everything from manipulating the arth. (whispering in their ears) otherwise they wouldn't need an easily swayable meathead royal line as a front to use for controlling the population. merls were long known as scheming etc and as such unlikable to the people. this is also why the arth is surrounded by such a diverse group of people. merls don't want to stand out too much as the only race to be around advising the arth, a coverup.
i really love this villainess going back in time story (also one of the first's i ever read) i mean she doesn't turn into a goody two shoes with just "I wanna survive!!! now lets do more goody goody stupid shit instead of evil stupid shit' and remains calm and calculated. She has a clear objective of revenge and plans out really thoroughly, Instead of being a stupid 'villain" she's a very cunning 'villain" really these types of character makes them more fun rather than annoying. and i say villain but we all know nobody's absolutely just or evil. everyone does "evil" stuff which comes under justice. it's just about the appearance of the person in society and how they are perceived
guys don't mind him too much the male is just suffering from 8th grade syndrome
HAHAHAHAHAHA WHY IS THIS ACCURATE
WKHAHAHAHAHAH..8TH GRADE SYNDROME
wtffffffff i stan the imperial family here. their chemistry is so damn good *squeals* the 'move that's my spot' lmaooo, also atleast the ml is acknowledging the fact that he was trash and is trying to change for the better
Ughh artist why'd you make cannon fodder like Kang ilhun so hot. The pain ༎‿༎
Let's be honest here the father is hotter than the ml
same same
I felt the same with abandoned empress, father best husbando. I dropped it though
Lmaoo I dropped the abandoned empress real fast too ( even before S1 ending) because it looked like her stupid was gonna end up with him again even tho she had so many better options
old man dude shut up if you let everything on your meathead king the country would have been ruined by now
