Good but a bit rushed. So did he date anyone else? Who was that pink haired dude? I've unanswered questions....regardless, the art was good and it was a good story. Would've been better with visual snu snu
Ok. So first reaction was to wonder why the twins who have 23 previous years plus 5 new years to be so silly in thought. First they are believing some random youth and then they ease drop on a convo they are ignorant about and piece together some puzzle that's wrong. BUT then I remember that they suffered 5 years of not just physical, but emotional, and psychological abuse. Then I realize that those previous 23 years don't occur to them. Such sad leads dred. I just wish they would be happy and think a little more to and realize everyone is out to get them..well not their royal family unlike their evil mother. I can't wait for the misunderstandings to be cleared up.
Fl can be infuriating/annoying at times. I've always felt that way. I still like her, but sometimes I have to skip over panels
I like the art change because the fl characters look less masculine, to me, but now everyone just looks so young. I wonder how old the characters are. I thought they were in their 20s but I'm guessing 18-21/22.
Tea is healing. This is such an informative manga..so many nice recipes jejej. Still waiting for tea bags and what's not.
I'm looking forward to a baby. I think she should be worried about that because she actually may be on some form of bc or something or she could be doing something to help her future self.. I get why she would avoid the topic though. It's a scary thought either way.
I think she should be honest with alphonse and I wished she had punished those maids properly.
I'm with you. I often find her to be incredibly naive.
Agreed especially when I thought she was much older in her previous life. And it's not just naivety with love, just in general.
Chaps 21-29 are a repeat...ugh. I wonder if secretary and bestie did it or if she threw up .... also I hope fl remembers telling the ml the truth etc....jejeje
Sadly, although the ml took logic, I doubt the fl and her son will listen. It's not as if they were any good themselves...wowzers its funny.
Ok I got a bit confused with the story, but what I think actually happened is that the story is just really slow. If there isnt drama left with a cliffhanger, it's just a plain scene. I'm so thankful to the author and translators. I just wish for more of the story and for things to not be dragged on. At least have fl and ml already make progress in their relationship or have that bitch princess slapped and brought down a peg...just something
They said that sexy red wolf didn't make them put up their guard although he was new but yet they seem to trust the little green head bitch. Also, I'm hoping I'll be proven wrong, but at the end of this chapter when the emperor mentioned killing them, they shouldve also heard that it was a life and death situation for the emperor. They have almost 30 years of life each, why does it seem that they don't process the material that way? Abuse and what's not isnt a joking manner but it's like even after entering a different place, inclusive with the previous abuse, they aren't thinking the way I would expect them to.
For the green haired kid (Duke Rosea's son), the twins are probably less wary of him because he's still a child. Their main issue regarding trust is directed towards the adults in their lives. So Rosea's kid has the advantage, as he appears to be nothing more than your average child, and should be incapable of evil acts and being two-faced.
The twins, when confronted with other children, seem to mainly expect teasing and verbal barbs from them...but it "isn't their fault, because they're only following what their parents say"...Rosea's kid is deceptive and manipulative. He hasn't said one bad word about them or acted openly hostile in any way, so they kind of trust him.
About the emperor's conversation: Yeah, they probably heard him say that his life was being threatened, but I guess it's kind of easy to take it the wrong way without proper context of prior knowledge? Arien and Arjen probably just focused on the "contract" bit and thought that the only reason they were alive now is because the emperor *had* to let them live out of his own sense of self-preservation. For them, it's kind of confirming their suspicions that he never did, and probably still doesn't, care about them. He's only continuing to let them live because he was forced into an agreement.
They probably also don't really believe that his life was ever in any actual danger. He's meant to be the strongest man in the empire and is thought to be literally blessed by the gods, right? So who could possibly threaten his life? Definitely not Rurahel who they think was just a regular lesser noble with zero power, influence, and connection compared to the emperor. They might think he was exaggerating.
Like, instead of his actual life, he meant his *way* of life and his image in the public eye. They probably think that Rurahel tried to become the best empress by seducing him, failed but got pregnant, then blackmailed him somehow...and he, in exchange, promised to let the children and her live + gave them a small life of luxury so long as she stayed out of the way and kept them a secret (since illegitimate children are a stain in the royal name)...but who knows! We'll probably find out their thought process next chapter
The 'also hearing the emperor's life being threatened' is certainly a plot-hole, but I feel like it is probable that they genuinely just heard the end part on their way to somewhere.
I think that they're realistic in a weird way.
They're 23 and they shouldn't be acting like this. If anything, they should be smart enough to have made a moral philosophy where they know how to react to people who have wronged them, but the fact is that they act like they're genuinely five.
I like the concept, and the reaction to abuse is realistic if you think that they're five.
But the problem here is that they're not five, they're twenty-three. It doesn't make sense for twenty three year old adults to react to abuse in such a way and it doesn't make sense for twenty-three year olds to be acting and trusting people like they're five.
On the other hand, they're constantly in a life-or death situation since their father is the emperor who in their eyes, could easily kill them with a simple wave of his hand. The emperor made it worse by almost killing the one adult who would be relatively honest with them. That isn't something that fosters trust.
I genuinely want this to be good, to be as realistic as it should be, but the thing is, I doubt that they'll ever act like actual adults in the presence of anyone that they should trust according to the plot.
So my lady boner was raging and hoping for some smut because dang..the art is awesome and I want to see lol. But then, the feels hit and my lady boner went away. Omg the feels in the latest chapters..
Grr I shouldn't have binged 57 chaps. I shouldve waited so I would see how this all works out
So quick question? Why did the fl go to the foster father? Was she unaware of how he was? Why did she allow her child to be raised as 15?
Ok so I've skipped (over 100 or so) so many chapters and all the leads suck ass..not in a good way. She raised such a son and allowed him to be around that man. And the ml sucks but I don't think he would've raised a child to be that bad..well as bad as she has. And I read the beginning and saw how ml lied to fl and whatnot so I'm not saying ml is the best. Maybe once I've more info I may change my thoughts but damn..that child's behaviour sucks too.
Considering how he got the child in the first place, and STILL hasn't come clean to the mother . . . . HELL NO. Everyone is bad, I cannot think of one character that is decent, and yet, I'm still reading . . . . (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
is true that their behavior sucks , but did u forgot the reason she stays with the foster father? she has no power, no money nobody to rely on , and the worst: the psychopathic woman doesn't want her to have the baby; is difficult for the ml and the brother to face the foster father, how can the fl make it.
So I'm gonna need blue haired bitch to suffer and lose her cultivation or something..maybe give her the parasitic plant or have her really marry that imposter...
Agree(〜￣△￣)〜
