I don't mind Alea being together with Helmut. If anything, it's REALLY cute. I don't get what all the fuss is about. It's not like she's weak or anything.
Really???? I feel it was a pretty smooth and gradual change though, like I wasn't caught off guard or anything. She's still pretty prickly, and it's not like she's outright fawning over him. Like during that recent dinner date, she was acting pretty much how she usually does, just a little blush here and there (I'm not counting this current festival arc because she's not in disguise, which makes sense to me why she'd be so flustered) . I genuinely don't see it. Isn't that within what you'd expect when someone's in love??? ( ̄へ ̄)
I also normally dislike romance in these types of manhwa, but this is super bearable. Like that dinner date, again, watching Helmut start to treat Alea differently made me pump my fist in the air ong it was so cute. Maybe I should reread and try to see what you mean.
Alan gets his own happy ending eventually!
Initially, his life is a downward spiral after the engagement with Clara gets broken. His so-called friends and lovers left him after rumors of his night life started spreading.
After graduating, Alan's father got him a new job and a wife. He wasn't happy about this, since the job was as a governer of a remote village, and the wife was a widow with a child from her previous marriage. However, he does come to love the village and his new family.
The wife is very lovely, and his son sees him as a father figure, and the villagers try to keep his spirits up. Very happy for him!
