Fun fact, carrier pigeons don't work like that!
They don't know how to get to any other location than "home", so what they'd do back in the olden days, is raise a couple of pigeons at the castle, put one in a cage when they traveled and then released him with the message, so the people at the castle would know they're fine. The pigeon would not be able to go back to the person who released him, so back and forth messages would be impossible.
The same goes for borrowing someone else's carrier pigeon, as they'd obviously just want to stay in their home and wouldn't even know where they're supposed to go. Unless the duke has such an army of pigeons, that he'd sent them in cages to random nobles so frequently that they wouldn't re-home, on the off chance that someone might want to message him, they'd likely be unable to do what they did this chapter.
This comment has been brought to you by the suspension of disbelief police. I can understand omegaverse shadow powers, but I draw the line at genius pigeons!

Did they already set free the one they brought? I didn't have paid attention in the comic but when I read the book I know they had brought at least one pigeon.
I remember I thought about it and the book explained something about it... but it's been a lond time and they communicate a lot via pigeon so i can't remember clearly

Oooh, I didn't notice it at first, but all the things that interest him were gift someone received! A pen from her father, a wedding ring, the harmonica his friend got from his dad, a lighter from his son and a watch her received from his kids. Not only are they gifts, they're well loved and extremely sentimental. He couldn't have just bought them from a store, they didn't have that attachment.
It makes me wonder why he thinks the mc shines? It seems she's universally disliked, even by her own family.
It reminds me of E.A.Poe's Berenice, with the complete inescapable obsession with random objects.
Anyway this is turning out to be a really good psychological thriller so...you know....maybe treat it as such? This isn't a manhwa that failed at being a romance, it never existed to make people feel warm and fuzzy. It's about a serial killer, who is charming, but by no means rational, sympathetic or kind. Not only is it unfair to critique the story for not being a romance, you're setting yourself up for disappointment too! The lawyer will not become any kinder and the protagonist won't save him. If anything, I'd bet she's going to turn out rather cruel too, though in a protective way rather than a obsessive way.

It's so good oh my god. I don't understand the magic system at all, but it's very interesting. The fact that the same names of gods and nobles keep popping up from the beginning till now makes the story feel very lived in, like all the characters have some relationships.
The art style is INCREDIBLY charming. The expressions and the colors are so fun and I love all the designs. Though I will say that the hair is getting less and less detailed, but that'll probably come back, since most of the time was probably given to action scenes.
I'm. obsessed with the doctor. I don't even mean like, they're my favorite character here, they're just perfect on a mangago wide basis. I don't know what their deal is, what their gender is or anything at all, I just know I love the design and the personality.

I do ultimately think this manhwa is kind of mid, which is understandable in such an oversaturated genre, but I keep coming back to chapter 22 every couple of month and oh my god. It's just so good. The visuals, the emotions, the dialog. "I'm here to kill you Raymond" is printed on my brain. I think I cried the first time I read it? I'm obsessed with the version of this story I thought about as I read it. I keep thinking about how this story would go if it didn't have to be a romance, but I probably wouldn't read it in the first place if it wasn't. Idk, I just really love chapter 22

Whoagh manhwa studio that's so cool!! I love how you made him blonde and pale when he was pretty, but dark skinned and dark haired when he was ugly!! No one has ever thought of that before!! Like obviously, there was always the option of showing us his actual ugly face, but we wouldn't want to turn off our readers by showing them an uggo in our smutty manhwa right? Using a visual shorthand (dark = ugly ) that EVERYONE (well almost everyone teehee) understands is soooo much easier and so clever. It's just so romantic how he kissed him, even after he turned ugly!! Like the most romantic thing since Loving v Virginia.
SHE'S SO CUTE WAAAAAAGHH I hope nothing bad happens to her. I know my baby Mori had plot armor, but she's kind and beautiful enough to die tragically to progress the plot :,(((
MORI IS A SHE ?????
NOOOO I'M TALKING ABOUT BEAUTIFUL ANGEL LADY WHO MADE THE CAPE
But damn I deadass worded that in the most ambiguous way possible, my bad
Ohhh ok cause i was hella confused
