would it be funny if one day the emperor regained his memories and realizes the mc is his sister? or if like a bonk to his head triggers a memory and then suddenly he wasn’t a villain anymore

honestly the royal couple is just really dumb. i wouldn’t count them as villains. they’re just really easy to influence. you can see that in how they just end up doing what the people around them (the real bad guys) tell them to do. even if the brother regained his memories, he’d keep being immature. it’s clear he doesn’t like his sister, but it’s more of a childish inferiority complex then a conniving villain.

finished reading chapter 21, i think it’s already decided who the FL is but also no one really annoying so far and it’s progressing pretty nicely!!

Not yet, at least from what i saw. Only three girls were introduced so far, the blonde girl who betrayed him in the past, the assassin girl and the maid. With the maid, i haven't found any romance between them so far, just him protecting her cuz she's one of his people. The assassin girl was someone he kinda saved this time around but appointed her as his bodyguard or spy or sth like that. And while he does have complex feelings for the blonde, he doesn't really interact with her. Now usually, u'd see romance blooming all of sudden from their first encounter cuz mc does sth awesome or sth, but i haven't seen them blush. I liked how they introduced the female characters as characters instead of love interests. Hope they keep it up.

Honestly, we're not sure if it's a misunderstanding or not as they didn't show anything so far that would hint it, but currently, the mc thinks he was betrayed by her so i hope he doesn't interact much with her. Cuz he can't just ask her y she betrayed him or sth cuz she didn't do anything like that yet.
i love (not romantically) ian as the ml!! honestly i wished she kept him and wouldn’t look at the other options lmao
