Need to marinate this more, at least for 20ch because theres so many plot points that could happen.
Her origin, her scar/trauma, that mysterious hot curse, her relationship with the grey haired dude in the beginning, her swordsmanship, the concubines, the blonde knight who is the ex lover of the princess and their kid- him not being a commoner, the replacement for the acting empress, and if she actually gets replaced and he searches for her
But i know it won't - i hope he (ml) moves on, and marries another woman and falls in love again, while she sees him and realises her regret for him who tried to get back with her. I want that angst route.
Like if she really loved that other guy then sure, have your happy ending with the other guy instead, but those recollections-of her memories - it seems like she's following the words of her mother saying that she should repay him back. So idk what's on with that. And some scenes it looks like she likes him but some scenes it looks like shes burdened by the request.
I understand her unwillingness to be in the capital or assume the role of duchess because of the burdens that come with it. Even the 2 characters said to be wary of the capital and that its a battlefield/cage. And she wants to protect her daughter from the bad environment, thats why she didnt even send her to be the heir of the household.
She still loves ml, but his absence really scarred her. For her to have lost her lover and her daughters father, for the villagers to deem her negatively, to be able to support them both financially. She went through hard times with her daughter so she made her own bubble of independency
Sadly the ML is a green flag, sure he is jealous but he didnt enforce her to love him back, he aint kidnap her or blackmail her like all the other mls xD he upheld his promise to her to the point he made a pact with a dragon and came back from the dead. He just too loyal, and instead of burdening her he'll probably die from the bond.
Also that reminds me,.how tf did his letters switch with another route/person? Was it an actual mistake?
If things dont get lighter and what happens in the spoiler someone shared here actually happens (putting a gun into u know where) imma def drop this. Ive seen and tolerated alot of sht (esp mangas have a lot of sht) but damn.
The translation is fine, it was just the messy panels of ch24 and the blurry quality (but its not like bad quality its fine)
In depicting the severity of human nature and trauma- forgot the title but its the guy who has a scar in his left eye area and the fl who went back in time.
In real life it's really like that. people and their experiences arent only white and black but in numerous shades in-between. Some of these experiences cause us to think or act irrationally or depict the world in a certain light.
Him idolising her was a result of his experiences and when he saw reality it kind of shattered. If he was 'normal' he wouldve just went "ahh she was just normal shes not a saint nevermind" but he's not.
She wasnt as strong as he thought. He wasnt the type to surrender to death and he thought she wasnt, but she was. He didnt really see her for what she was but what HE 'thought' she was.
She really was naive, spoiled(in a particular way). But she is pure of heart and would've developed emphathy and understood the pain common people went through
Agggh need to marinate this more
But really, for once i hope this or another webtoon doesnt let the FL end up with ogML but another guy instead in these types of stories
Sometimes theres just too much trauma in the relationship that it feels weird seeing them together happy.
--(the common ones are them not actually happy in the relationship and there is a mistress on the side in the and they immediately introduce the actual ML of the story in the beginning. Almost never do we see the leads go through rough patches for a long time, separate, recover, and them getting romantic partners. Usually they go back to each other)
Why he was so adamant to her not going to the meeting, even he insulted her in the process. Hopefully she gives them some common sense because those are some dull-ass people
Its the climax of the story
Also pls to anyone who wants to see abuse and her being so down and having abuse marks, read the novel instead. I felt conflicted at first but now i believe it was for the best.
I think the adaptation team realised how much abuse and body harm was romanticised in the novel, like thousands of other FL in k-novels.
Always needed to be abused so we could feel bad for the fl and see her 'broken self' be eventually fixed back by the ml.
No matter what, the story still makes sense. If not, then just imagine what happened in the novel and think it was actually that.
Sure hes obsessed with her in an evil way but definitely not in love. He might feel she is his possession because of the eyes and because she 'stole' his power. If it develops into love then its definitely not romantic type
He has ptsd and sht for going to war and making it out. Someone who goes through trauma doesnt just magically get better once they hear the magic words 'i love you and youre ok now'. Sht is layered and even after a few years of love and care there will still be fragments left of that pain. He has seen the ugliness of the world and its no surprise he will see things in a negative tone.
She picked her choice amongst all others and stood by him. He probably also feels like she deserves someone better and is pushing her away to find her happiness in someone else.
But it sure is painful as hell to wait for the eeniest bit of romance
Ah yes the standard 'misunderstood' plot because of poor communication
Its annoying sure,, but yall cant disagree that it makes everything juicer
Now we will see ijun chasing after her as his karma of ignoring her
My god
I was so happy we got 3 recent uploads
Until that cliff hanger of ch 49
Wtf (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
It felt intentional from the uploader to make us suffer like this gdi
First time ive seen the 'wrongfully married' plot,, that has alot of plot points it could lead to and so its interesting
Prolly feels all over the place for some of you cuz shes so active. She keeps being outside and bumping into people/leads and so something always keeps happening
Also this so funny,i want to marinate the story a lil more but i can't wait (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
They sure jumped into it pretty fast huh,,, that just means we getting tons of conflict in the upcoming chapters since we getting the good parts now
Also i cant help but mistake the title as cashiers secret record and imagine the webtoon as about financial records lol
Damn i was getting my hopes up for the fl and hyunoh (actor) to get more intertwined in each other i wasn't expecting them to ,, and they tiptoed around the border for a bit
I hope they do explore their relationship and everything gets messy for the drama
Is this a misdirect? Is he somehow gonna misunderstand her again (in the future for another issue) and then it solves in the end?
Cuz famn this good sht happening right here it happened faster than i thought finaallyy he now knows
