honestly i applaud the empress for how strong and ambitious she is. unfortunately the leads are too OP in here and she cant catch a break lmao. we need more villains like this. not those brain dead only likes the mc or ml type of villains.

She is one of my favourite characters. A useless father, a useless son, and a useless cheating husband. And she still was able to win before Tia regressed. So independently of what anyone says, she is a badass. Also she is doing the same as Lombardi really. They are all trying to monopolize power to themselves, difference is that the Lombardi in the 1st timeline weren't trying to kill Angenas but now Tia is trying to destroy them.

You have a point (๑•ㅂ•)و✧.
Her biggest problem was not killing Perez for once. She prolonged it as a dumb idiot and suffered the consequences of it. Her husband cheated and had another child that would become a threat to hers. She rightfully wanted her son on the throne. But she should have educated him to be a good person and a good emperor, instead of focusing so much on doing everything and allowing the kid to became an incompetent.
She had a chance to kill Perez when the emperor turned a blind eye and she didn't do so.
She had a chance to educate her kid and she failed that.
Everything else was a consequence of these two mainly dumb decisions.

Ohh and also I think that of she had success in killing Perez and her current child became emperor, Angenas would eventually take on the royal family. But werether they would eventually become a threat to the empire itself can be discussed. Can a puppet emperor and a greedy family in the backstage make an empire prosper? I think she would govern properly for a while but after the 1st prince becomes the emperor she would be cast aside as we can see already happening. It would lead to international conflicts and maybe to the fall of the empire in the some decades. Without Lombardi the Angenas greed would run rampant and corruption would spread even wilder. So I think it's quite good that's not what happened.
I wonder, if she had been born a man in the imperial family, she would have made a great emperor.

Actually that's up for debate. Personally I think even without Perez, the Empire wouldn't prosper under her rule. It's mainly due to her want to be the only one in power. Yes, Angenas wins but the main reason why the Empire worked was because Lombardi had handled the money so well. In first timeline, Lombardi fell so fast and so swiftly under such incompetent leadership that I doubt the economy had time to recover. Angenas taking over their businesses is incredibly naive of them to believe things would be smooth sailing. They'd be tyrants and wouldn't really hold loyalty from their people. It would have been a different matter if they were patient about taking over Lombardi ventures but nah. Angenas fam are greedy af

he's so little here omg. i'm near the end of the novel just less than 100 chapters more i dont want it to end. i love this story so much. he really doesnt depend on his abilities as much as people think. mostly just one or two scenes in one movie that's it. his ability to ON/OFF his acting is his talent. that isnt his ability. he himself is an amazing actor already. every movie, play, and drama was so interesting. seojun loves tragic. if you're a sprout (im definitely one!!!) better bring a box of tissues when you watch his works lmao. at one point i thought evan and rachell were dating because they're always frequently talked together. i think this is one of the movels i remember most of the side character's names because they appear often. seojun hangs out or talks to them frequently so you dont forget them. 2 or 3 of them even work with him a few times

i look for it just for you i hope you will be happy here's the link to the light novel :)

honestly they're so fucking perfect for each other. you could see that they'd get along as friends/best friends if they didnt love each other as more than that. licht just casually spouting things like "i'd follow you anywhere" is why i love him sm. there's no better ML you can find. the man is a green flag a whole forest of green.
this was the scene i was waiting for LMAOOOOO. a baby lion can already do that what more of the daddy lion. like at least realize the gap between you and the boleoti's
The emperor really thinks he can do anything to the Boleoti family when a 7 year old lion cub made him drop to his knees.
