Old bitch, it's so obvious you want to mooch off of her and for your good-for-nothing son to steal all her inheritance the moment she marries him and becomes your "daughter in law"... (more like "victim in law", if you ask me) Well, too bad. Now that's never gonna happen... Your son ruined the scam, lost the money goose, and is now stuck with a penniless b... Learn to get along with your "new" daughter in law, or go jump off a cliff, cause no one cares about what your scamming, mysogynistic, hypocrite thieving self thinks or wants anymore, here.
Ok, chapter 24 was a HUGE improvement both in plot and characters' dynamics. Hope it keeps it up.
I don't really get this creep old man's & Sunkyung's reason to choose (og) Sera in particular as their target. Aside from the level of obsession, WTF is it her in particular?
Poor Divine Sword-Nim, now in the enemy's hands. Guys, please, rescue it!! T_T
I guess this means it's Lucian's time to shine? He's the Master of Divine Sword-Nim, and thus probably the only one that can rescue Divine Sword-Nim, right now. ...Save it from getting completely corrupted. Sword-Nim is one of the 3 treasures that can beat dark magic. So if Sword-Nim gets corrupted, that makes it 2 of the 3 that will be already gone.
OMG such eventful couple of chapters!
-----------------------
1) 2nd prince says he and the redhaired b... are engaged to get married.
2) Second Medeste daughter and war hero duke also want to be engaged and get married.
3) Crown prince says "not before me and the 1st daughter get engaged and married!"
4) To sum up: EVERYONE'S GETTING MARRIED!
5) Yurika heard the baddies confess that she's the *real* Yurika.
---
CONCLUSION: To sum up, (even) the "real Yurika" is getting married...

I'm half extatic (for them) and half crying, here (for my incurably single life...) (●TωT●)ノ
Thank heavens she left. Girl, thank you for leaving, sparing us readers from having to witness more scenes with your horrible sister and parents.
It's very likely at this point that the evil older sister uses some kind of dark magic to brainwash their parents as well as the men she uses as "lovers", which is symbolized by the butterflies (and given dead away by how he reacts whenever her magic doesn't work on someone). I ...But still, hard to forgive the parents for yielding to it, when other people like her grandma managed to resist it, let alone after how the mc's parents helped her evil "older sister" sell her off as a friggin slave for money, in the past life... PLEASE GRANDMA DISOWN YOUR GOOD-FOR-NOTHING SON AND HIS SO-CALLED "ELDEST DAUGHTER"!!!
And, now that I'm mentioning this, I'm also starting to doubt whether that nasty blonde's even the family's real bio daughter, because she doesn't look like any of them at all (and if she's aware, might be the reason why she's so inclined to hate and criminally hurt her own alleged "younger sister", on whom her nasty brainwash magic doesn't seem to work, either).
...Some dialogue lines are so heavy-handed it makes me shudder.
Still, this is a lot better than other manga I've read (that STELLAR moment where she grabbed the murdering "sister" by the neck, and put her in her place, for example).
Will keep an eye open for this one.
What the heck's WRONG with that f**ed up older sister?? ....she skipping her meds or something??????
Ewwww this creepy eyed old man is EVERYWHERE... and WTF with *so* many people actually *trusting* this creepy azz witch (quack) doctor with their troubles??
Dude she's not angry at how you lied about being a gardener... She's probably angry at all that *needlessly perverted* veiled stuff you said to her, as an engaged woman (and trying to get away with it by using racy, almost rancy "gardener metaphors" that you *thought* she wouldn't catch onto... about "flowers blooming best at night", and about "flower buds being *opened* with careful touch"... Eeeeww, so disgusting of you to say that to someone on your 1st meeting, ever!)
Her maiden name is "Fleur" and, and as an avid reader, she must have ended up catching on, in the end, what he was *really* saying, under all that "poetry"...
(And really, I'd recommend he watch the flower segment in Pink Floyd's movie "The Wall"... I bet *THAT* would cure him from trying to use *flowers* as metaphors for veiled sexually-harassing comments to anyone, ever again... He's clearly a disrespectful, patronizing creep, so he's one dude that really does deserve the lesson, of getting disturbed by it..)
4 hours each time to get there?! Hahaha, boy, move far away even further and let's see what he does.
The ML is getting annoying with all the childish vibes while pretending so hard to act like an "adult" (and yeah... those feel more like childish tantrums than just some sophisticated "music prodigy's" quirks, to be honest). He is like a young adult who wants to seem all cool and mature, but doesn't realize how he ends up giving himself away with how he will suddenly start acting out like a spoiled brat, out of nowhere (can't even argue he was just being tsundere, when he acted like a quarrelsome little f**er from the very beginning, even parading himself naked all around the apartment, just to antagonize and drive away the mc... *and dude, if you don't want any roommates then why not take it up with your own cousin??*).
He also gives himself away when he fails to figure out obvious stuff like *why* the older guy would be so confused and troubled by what happened between them (not to forget, instigated by the *ml*): He mistakes the mc for being too shallow and casual about what happened between them, when it's obvious *why* the mc is so bent on playing it down, trying to avoid jumping head first into a relationship that might turn out wrong, as he would obviously fear the predictable negative consequences to himself, if it went all wrong (consequences like, losing the new roof over his head, for one... or facing frictions with the older cousin, his hyung from college, for another... let alone, maybe even risking getting accused by the Hyung, of having "taken advantage" of his "adult-aged but still much younger" baby cousin...). And I mean, dude, if you can't figure THAT out...
If he doesn't step up his game...
Read up to chap 16 and I must say I'm appalled at how base, shallow and *utterly mediocre* minded every supporting character is, in this story. How can one person's (the mc's) entire social surroundings be filled with NOTHING but garbage, base, disgustingly and annoyingly TOXIC, mediocre self-entitled people (even in her own family?!?)?
1) The guy who came back after studying abroad and keeps grumbling about having to meet up with a former schoolmate for work, just because she's "not hot enough" for his tastes (dude... it's your JOB, whatever happened to carrying your own weight and to work ethics, and what part in your job description says your main task in a *work* metting is "finding yourself more candidates to stick your d... into"???)
2) The mc's former crush... someone please run him over with a truck, cause it's hard to imagine how someone can continue to exist being such a mediocre human being, both in behavior and in prospects, yet thinking so highly of himself and what he deserves. Dude, just go jump a cliff, PLEASE.
3) The mc's own sister is ALSO pure garbage?? (won't elaborate, just read chapter 16)
I can't believe the author isn't placing one single fairly decent person among her friends and family. It's aggravating.
He's turning yandere *fast*... but nope, not enough trash yet, to outdo the mc's own trash family... the mc's family raised the trash bar way too high in this one
I just thought........... how come *everyone else* in the imperial family is actually immune to Liena but that idiotic younger prince? ...Even his mother, the "evil" empress stepmother is immune? So WTF happened to that boy, ...why is he the only one that "turned out wrong"??
Seme: "It's unlike me to be unable to stop thinking about him"
Me: Dude... IIRC he was your *only* bed partner for 6 years. Should've figured it out by now because, who keeps sleeping only with one single person for 6 years straight, in a "merely physical" relationship
