It's one of the best revenge villain based manhwa.
1. Revenge is served sweet and cold, satisfying to the core. Slowly taking away each petal which made them suffer in the previous life
2. Relationship between the main leads is growing slowly and steadily. Not some oompa loompa omg why my heart doki doki so fast I'm throwing everything for you, but patient gaining each other's trust and affection.
3. FL is not stupid to believe there's a road without pain. War is a war, but it's necessary.
4. And this, this is very rare in this type of manhwas, so like 10/10 but I think Sing is truly happy for FL and ML. He's not this obnoxious type of second ml that whines about how the ml doesn't deserve it. EVEN MORE. Emperor isn't getting some jealous plot around second ml?? VERY RARE.
5. The last one, I swear - NO MISUNDERSTANDING PLOT BETWEEN MAIN LEADS?? I think it's my birthday guys! No whining in the corner and leaving a room for misunderstandings, no we cannot be together shit etc? I. Love. It.
So, to summarize. So far the story doesn't seem prolonged with some useless plots, FL is clever, hot and good amount of crazy for actual villainess (but we know she's our soft mommy deep inside), ML isn't actually dumb idiot in love and the revenge is 10/10 so far.
HIS EYES?? THE SMILE?? Sir you ain't my type and you're a child, but goddamn
And in the pot, there's a small woman
O! Look more closely, it's his mother!
But what is she doing in said pot?
Well she's burning because she deserves hell for treating our little pookie mookie little teddy bear like an object.
The fight came to them lol
NO LEAVING OUR CUTE CUPCAKE ALONE, DO YOUR TRAINING NOW
I'm glad her tooth fell. FEEL EMBARRASSED KID FOR TREATING YOUR SISTER LIKE THIS.
Although I love this series and I've always been there for strong Sigrid, this "spy" plot is so damn annoying. We love misunderstandings yaaay~~
Although trial is pretty interesting, whole story so far is mediocre, same with art. Characters are pretty dumb and plot unpolished... Probably will dump it later anyways, so why not doing it now..
You're too late Morris. You're gonna be friendzonned af. Hope you'll be safe tho, cause I don't like where the story is going...
Also, I want to start petition to change the name of those Auch guards to something else, cause it's hard to spell and I read it as Auschwitz (my history teacher would be proud tho) every single time.
If you're interested in reading this - please do. The beginning is really nice and fresh. Unfortunately later on the story becomes dull and dumb. So the moment you think the beginning is over - run away.
Expect your typical cast: Communication-out-of-the-window, fate-is-against-us-being-together, fl-looses-her-charm and more similar tropes!
We get no romance interactions between main couple, mainly cause ml is friend-blocked (by himself lol).
So yeah, good luck soldiers!
Okay, so I couldn't bear waiting and read the novel (till chapter 161 I think, if I'll read more I'll update)
But yeah, turns out normal mode fl made a deal with eclise, that he will take her to duchy and he'll "get" duchess. he didn't wanted the title, cause he was afraid that he would need to leave mansion after receiving one. Basically (if I understood properly,take it with a grain of salt, cause novel translation was pretty bad) he hoped, that fl will have no other choice than to leave the mansion with him. Btw he gets tad delulu.. When she came to him in prison - turns out that he knows fl is using him and she doesn't love him, but for some reason she cannot leave him, so he kinda gets this psycho idea, that no matter what happens she needs him (crazy bastard, you gonna hate him fr). Well jokes on him, our badass fl just after realizing, that even after he says I love you she won't get 100% (he's effection bar stopped at 99%), she throws away the ring to his collar and basically abandon him. What's important for the plot, after she leaves the prison,to see him comes that btch. fl will hear, that real princess is able to brainwash eclise to some point with her mirror thingy, but it's not working too well, cause on the island fl took part of that mirror. So my theory is, that in normal mode Yvvone is able to brainwash all mcs, cause her mirror is full and she probably will do anything to get that part of the mirror back, so it's probably gonna be important part of the plot.
