Spoiler review again!!

Anyway, I apparently like this more than I thought despite its flaws because here I am again... this 2nd read made me realize however that god is an asshole hahah

I believe Tia never had a chance to change her end fate in anyway. At the start when she goes through the 2nd life shenanigans there's a panel showing part of an end scene.. and it's not 2 different possible ends but just that 1... meaning the end has been made for her. Thus as god stated one cannot escape the fate written for them. I guess the "Pioneer" name isn't for her changing fate itself but her having the chance to change her destiny instead, like giving her a semblance of having choices to get to the end. So it's a matter of do you believe that fate is foretold and you're just going with the flow regardless of your choices or you are the one who builds your own path by your own choices.

God be laughing like "change fate my ass" ╮(￣▽￣)╭

So this is like an otome game with one running bachelor but there's good end and bad end. I'm still not mad at it though. For those who wish to read with feeling less anger toward the T1 prince... read chapter 7... skip the first 6 chapters.

For those wondering about why the Prince resented Tia. The Prince's hate was from jealousy/envy, misunderstanding, misplaced resentment, and not sure about correct term inferiority complex which he explains in the later part of the story. Now one would think people have to be always strong but bear in mind the Prince was a child when all of this brewed. T1 Prince especially never knew love or anything positive so it's not a far reach for him to devolve into such brutality since he was never taught otherwise (sans the poison side story). Since he wasn't pureblooded this gave him that sense of apprehension and inferiority...from the moment T1 Prince met Tia it was always about her. He bore such negativity all through-out til they wed. I actually kind of feel sorry for his child self. He was always told he's the sole heir and there's a lot expected of him but also he gets constantly belittled with what he does and compared to Tia...like no matter what he does was never enough...and the only person to show him differently died by showing him what a mother who loved their child really acts then pair it with the night and day treatment of his own father with him and Tia...and Tia constantly showing up during their childhood thus "stealing" the happy moments the T1 prince so desperately wanted... which isn't an excuse to be so brutal but it does make him more like not born evil sort of... I mean he was a child who wasn't taught any better.

Meanwhile T2 Prince though similar in their earlier childhood is now your typical..."Oh I've never been treated like this, this girl is interesting I must know her!" (≧∀≦) Instead of repeating the past where all attention is on Tia, the Prince is baffled by her running away from him. And I guess this arrogance that he must know why is his catalyst on self-awareness about his misplaced negative feelings which we see in the middle of the story. And once he had that awareness about himself there's a switch on the dynamic and how he views her as a person.

As for Tia... is she still "strong female lead"? Imo yes-ish? In the middle chapters there's a scene where she faces herself. In the early chapters it was more her not wanting to do with the prince itself then it eventually evolved into her not wanting to be like her T1 self as she becomes more aware about the difference of her past life vs the current. She even questions if she hadn't been like what she was in T1 would her future be better. And this was concluded in the middle point where she finally realized that the "fate" she's been wanting has changed already that because of her early choices there are people who surround and support her now. So for the rest of the chapter there is less of what she was doing because to her the goal has been realized that the past will not repeat itself as it was and more her trying to balance the leftover fear of the past and her present.

Though tbf it is a.. jarring switch. I mean, one minute we have like ptsd mentality the next it's like boom gone? I guess it's more like a nightmare to her now so the impact has lost its effect? But it does feel like a different story ahaha part 1 is psychological part 2 is shoujo. LOL. This is where the distinction lies. I feel like this just go two ways: You'll hate this if you see T1 and T2 prince as the same exact person regardless of T2s portrayed innocence (aka current Jieun's pov). You'll be ok with the story if you don't, like a multiverse comic like those Evil Superman haha or like Nurture vs Nature? (aka current Tia's pov) LOL idek. X)

The moment I find myself hating most is when T2 Prince rejected Tia's blood oath and confessed to her and delaying their engagement contract... breaking his promise on honoring her decision. You selfish boi. But apparently Tia is a tsun tsun who secretly likes it. And Tia being wishy washy about her relationship with the Prince.. SIGH. GIRL.

About Jieun... honestly I just feel sorry for her and I hate her character in both times. I'm not into those "innocents" that act like they do nothing wrong but yeah sadly she's just well eh though I guess she did good in the end. Sad fate.

Now about Allen... hahaha seeing him act so innocent oh god (￣∇￣") I don't like much how Tia is with Allen.. it's like she gets dumbed down from her "trust" in him because he was her first friend.

Overall the ending...it's not the worst I've read but like it's "That's it??" sort of end..

Anyway let's stop the talk about the not so romantic romance here (I really wish this was more romantic! But it feels more like just drama.. not that that's bad)... can we just gush at the other characters?! The dad yo!! Carsein!! the soldiers! Love them. Ehem Lieg x Lina. I love the royals guards too. I wish they have like side stories. Would be fun to read their sol. My only question now is how come the Emperor looks so darn old compared to Papa Monique?! LMAO Emperor got the short end of the stick there.

Lol this has gone longer than I intended. I'm bored with life. help.

I do love some possessive/aggressive MLs but this is just ridiculous. Just at start ML is way TOO possessive already worse yet is he's actually hurting people over it not your typical tsundere possessiveness. How are we supposed to root for such a character to pair with the FL when you don't establish anything to root for other than he is handsome? (〜￣△￣)〜

Spoiler review:

I spoiled myself reading through the comments intentionally because I don't like tragic endings. So learning how FL was going to end up with the prince and that part getting so much hate it was made curious..

I didn't expect it to be written in such a way that was acceptable to me anyway. The whole thing made sense.

FL wasn't exactly a good person herself thus this 2nd life gave her a chance to be so and during the pivotal scene where in she goes into shock and has a ghostly moment with her past self and how she accepted that she has changed and then changing how she views the world and so was her interactions with the prince was no longer ptsd-like thus giving opportunity for the "real" personality of the prince to wedge their way into her heart which thankfully was done in droplets and not like a whole switch over as same with the prince. I think it also helps that she loved and yearned for him so much before that made it easier.

Part of her character's gripe is "changing" so to me her choosing the prince in the end didn't come out of nowhere. We were given explanations on how they both turned to grow into such cold people in their 1st life and we can see how FL is beginning to see it with the prince too. That the prince she knew the 1st time wasn't the same as the current. But of course her past experience is still buried deeply so she tries to reject him.

At the end I loved how the prince did a blood oath to just bury all her fears of him ever changing that was a really sweet moment.

Giving a 4 because Carsein my boy needs to be happy ;_;
