I sincerely hope the manga strays FAR from the novel because the Novel started becoming trash after the elf Gurl Tess basically forces Arthur into having feelings for her like a spoiled brat. I couldnt read anymore after the 130 something chapter
She basically forced the relationship to happen a lot faster that it should have. He was 12 and she was 13. He wanted to take it slow but because she’s such an insecure spoiled brat who couldnt take no for an answer she insulted him and poked at his insecurities prompting him to accept her love for him despite his reservations and proceeded to speed things up in an abnormal way. He lets her get away with it because he he has affections for her and he’s stupid. A 50 yr old king gets played by a 12 yr old spoiler brat? The novel makes art stupid and childish and brainless. Ohh. I really REALLY HATE TESS. She reminds me of Sakura only she has white hair.











Im so sorry but I can understand the emperor who wounded up loving someone else. I feel bad for the guy.
That's fine. No one can predict the future, whether you'll stay or fall out of love.
But still doesn't justify his shitty treatment to the empress. Even if it was a loveless marriage, at least give her the proper respect she deserves qwq
The fact that he wanted navier to stay with him as well though was incredibly selfish, and he fell in love with Rashta because she was extremely submissive, he gives strong misogynistic vibes
And also dont like how he lies for rashta despite his position even if it hurts Navier's reputation
