The author made it reallllyyyy clear that those two have a thing. It may be contractual at first but as the time went by the air around Lapis/Lala change, that was the cue that there was "something". I was caught on guard that the mc reciprocated Lapis's feelings. Well, the story's going fast but the early they show that there's romance involved the better.
I just hope Ivar(originally a girl(blonde)), Paimon, and Barbatros wouldn't get romantic with the MC.
What I hate about this kind of manhwas is that the artists makes the ml way too hot to the point people will likely accept that they're toxic asf.
