He wins but he learn his lesson in every fight. I also like that he was always humble and thankful to everyone. Jiwoo has this golden retriever energy that's why everyone is soo drown to him to the point they don't know what they're doing but still keep doing it anyway.
I also like the 3 daddies (Kayden, Kartein, Pluton), they're very proud of their son. They never lose hope on him even if the fight shows he's gonna lose at any moment. I love them all

I understand people couldn't feel the love between them. But, realistically speaking, he's an abandoned child and grew without receiving love aside sympathy from asuka and hostility from nobility. So, it's expected that he isn't like the male lead out there but he's straightforward. The asking for blessing part shows his sincerity that we can't capture from the previous chapters. Give him some slack, he's still learning to be human and interacting as best as he could.
Additionally, he just knew violence so he expresses his love in a violent way. You know, when you really love someone, you'll try to forget the past scenarios, the bad times you had with your lover. Our FL here is a soldier, so she knew how to decipher his violent ways of showing love.
4 years, 4 freaking years I've marinated it and even read the novel but didn't finished it. It's worth the wait, it's so beautiful.... Who's cutting onions here???!!
