Am I the only one who thinks this is all a bit too weird?
I mean they are not her real family, they’re just housing her for the duke until she’s her normal age again. She was kinda sent there against her will and is also just waiting to return to the duke (I mean she was ready to give her life for him???).
She gets tested to be taken into the family, still feels very distant from them/is even scared and all of a sudden they’re all buddy buddy and love her as their sister as if she was there all her life??
Then they (pretend?) to kill the duke she would have given her life for and all we get is a "He promised to give me cookies ;-;" and an annoyed look like "damn these brothers going around killing people again sigh" ????
Shouldn’t she be more concerned? Some strangers she has been sold to just killed the duke she worked for all her life???
Also why is she just accepting how they treat her as a child? Like with all the you’re too young to marry shit??? I mean she’s at least 10, if not even 20 years older than her bodily appearance??? Σ(っ°Д °)っ
I don’t know about y’alls childhoods but aren’t you too mean to the child?
When I was ten, I had made plans to stay over at a friend's house and I was really excited about it. But when it started getting a bit dark, I got so scared that my parents wouldn’t come back and I’d be all alone, I started crying and wanted to go home (and my parents had to come get me).
I know for an outsider that must’ve been annoying. But as a child, it’s damn scary to be alone and with your parents far away.
And being with our very lovely mc would not make this easier, especially because Ani can hear Geenie's conversations with Rai about how she doesn’t like her.
And y’all expect the child to be like "No problem, I’m just chilling here with this gal who hates me, far away from home in a kind of civilization I’ve never been before. Life couldn’t be greater" ???
And of course she’ll cling to the next person who’s friendly to her when Geenie didn’t even care when she was almost killed by that carriage (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
Why is everyone bullying Albert?
I don’t remember him doing anything bad to the mc other than being bitter about not going to the festival...
Seriously it doesn’t make sense. And also what was up with Maybel's reaction when he brought water and was forbidden contact and she was like "man you just never learn"???
What did he do wrong? Or the other way around: what would be right? Is he supposed to dislike her and stay away? He is punished when behaving like a friend, when behaving like a servant, when behaving like a normal child ... this makes me feel so sorry for him :(
Is it just me or does the father keep her from making friends? It’s way too early for the "Stay away from my daughter"-behavior against possible romantic interests (I mean she’s a child) (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
Rykell can be ridiculously petty about punishment. he'll try to separate his daughter from any possible romantic interest.
and. yes. even Rykell ADMIT THAT IT IS A CHILDISH MOVE and apologize to his daughter (he filled Maybelle's schedule and make sure that Phon can't approach her except for simple greetings , while the daughter and disciple tried their best to look for a chance and have some private talk )
everything will a little better if Abel learn to behave and stay put until his restraining order is over . he is breaking the rule almost everytime just because he wants to sneak and visit Maybelle . Rykell is prone to throwing random punishment if someone said the wrong word or made mistake, and Abel did it repeatedly that it became a routine (he never learn lol. but it is part of his personality tho)
Phon is actually hiding the same rebel streak, but he knows when to stop trolling his teacher and behave.
Oh man, I do wonder what Yahwi's gonna wish for ...
And for alle the Cain-lovers here who apparently prefer deception and creepy ass stuff done to them while they’re asleep more than a sex friend who doesn’t reciprocate their feelings...thanks for taking the creeps so I will have a higher chance of running into the better guys (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Oh btw before anyone in the comments starts a discussion about how Yahwi is a rapist and all that shit, please do think about what a real rape victim would think of your comments. Thanks :)
I know several "real rape victims" who had encounters similar to the early ones between Yahwi and Jooin and those experiences were very traumatic to them. (Of course, everyone reacts differently to those sorts of situations.) I'm not saying you can't ship Yahwi and Jooin (idc what you ship), but I think it's still important to understand that many of the scenarios in this manhwa would be serious violations of consent in real life.
They weren't telling you how to feel, they were just talking about how *they* felt. Also, idc how you feel about a fictional character, but what Yahwi did would objectively be rape/sexual assault in a real life context. That's not an opinion, it's just a fact. I am being adamant about this because there are a lot of victims who were in the same position as Jooin and were blamed for their own sexual assault.
Again, this is fiction and you can ship whoever you want and like whichever characters you want. I am just worried that people don't understand what constitutes sexual assault.
I’m so fucking tired of the "I’m mean to you because I want to protect you" bullcrap. Seriously this trope is so overused and of course all the bad things are forgiven bc in the end everything went well and they actually love each other bla bla bla.
If it were me, I’d be gone faster from their life than they could ever start their redemption arc. I don’t need protection. And even if I do, I’d like to be informed about it, not get hurt through some emotional/mind games Σ(  ̄□ ̄||)
At this point I just want Azusa to quit school, take his mom and they go build themselves a nice life in a rural area where there aren’t any shithead kids with no self esteem that need constant validation by bullying those weaker than them ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
Exactly !
Why should he suffer just becos the other one decided to « protect him » this way when he didn’t ask for anything.
As for me i really wanted from the beginning that Azusa would change school. I don’t want him to quit school and start working at a young age (im the type of people for who school is important lmao). He should enjoy his adolescent life. I’m sure in a regular school Azusa would’ve had many friends.
Normally I’m like that too but Azusa doesn’t seem to be the studious type. I think he’d be a great worker though and would have fun doing practical things instead of sitting on a desk for hours and needing to learn stuff he’ll never need in life anyways.
So I think it’d be better for him to get out of school and go to work :)
Yeah you’re right he doesn’t seem studious like you said. But i think it’s also becos of the environment of his HS i’d say and i believe he enjoys athletics at school.
I said i didn’t want him to quit school cos he’s still minor and didn’t graduate yet. But if he wants to work after HS i don’t see any problem.










That was a chapter that seemed far too short ;-;
Thank you translators/uploaders for your hard work, I will try to patiently wait for the next chapter (๑;•ㅂ•)و
