Aseph's original plan was to marry Zay and kill her after, but upon meeting her, he was already drawn to her. Why? cus they're actually soulmates. (●'◡'●)ノ
In the novel that our character read, Zay is the beloved child of God. Aseph was originally supposed to be the child fated to die young, but Zay used her powers to save him, so she ends up dying in his place and ceases to exist in that timeline in the novel. So Aseph loses his fated partner whos supposed to be Zay. His attraction then transfers to her twin sister Elisha even tho she isnt his fated partner, but she holds a connection to Zay.. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
And Aseph's seal/soulmark is apparently with Zay, that's why he doesn't have one. His soul was devoured by the devil, hence why he does not have a soulmark. (not sure if this one is real but its possible)

what do y'all think about this relationship? do you find it toxic? Aseph's character obviously suffers from ptsd and is now depending on the FL to fulfill his needs. I personally want him to get better and hope they have a happy ending together, but is that just wishful thinking? whats your opinion? (=・ω・=)

i think what they lack is communication. aseph is obviously possesive, but he wants to understand zay although her opinion doesnt matter to him, as he would keep her with him even if she doesnt want him. thats why fl wants to stay, but she doesnt want to hurt him, afraid that if he will know about the seal he wont believe her that she loves him. she said she didnt love him so he wont suffer more. the way their relationship will end is in zay's hands, and her choices. although, like most of the stories, it will probably, probably end well, we cant say.

omg i have no clue what's going on, but he dragged her out of the ballroom and she rejects him again but he kisses her and then takes out his knife to stab himself.... im so confused (⊙…⊙ )...
im reading the comments from korean readers and a lot of people are upset cus azef is basically gas lighting Zay into staying with him cus he tells her that she only seems to care about him when he gets hurt so he tries hurting himself and says he cant live without her ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ But then she throws the knife out the window~
Also Zay finally reveals her seal to him and he seems really upset that she didn't say anything, but he forgives her (sorta). then she tells him how much she loves him but she has a seal and he does not have one so her feelings in the future will end up changing so she doesnt want him to have feelings for her (feels like she doesnt deserve to be loved by him) because she will just end up hurting him in the end...

THATS IT??????? i mean, im happy they end up together, but I was expecting more from the parallel universe, but she just ended up going back? I was lowkey hoping for Nogata to fall in love with Kiyose again, but he basically said that he'll always love Manami more cus those memories he has arent really his memories....
The mangaka could have easily made this longer cus it had so much potential, but Kiyose just easily went back to her original world and he was alive again....It's a happy ending, but I would have loved to see the other Nogata fall in love with Kiyose again in the parallel one :/

So he's afraid that the old guy will try to convince Lucia to have a concubine for Prince Damien??? So Damien would be with his half-sister? Unless Damien is actually the son of Hugo, but that would still make them cousins right? (⊙…⊙ ) I mean, I know it wasn't an uncommon thing back then, but still...thats so...( ̄∇ ̄")

Why am I obsessed with ML's that are cold and scary, but soft and sweet with the FL??? I go weak at the knees for it and this story fits the bill. He's already so in love with her and its amusing to see him stumble over his feelings~ Also I love how sensual the artist draws their scenes together. Its so romantic, but it also makes me feel so alone ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

im so glad i got the notification for this! also its cool that the author added all their sexual orientations. I knew jiwon was bisexual and it makes sense that he leans more towards men. I'm glad she added that bit since people seem to erase bisexual preferences. Anyway i cant wait for the 18th!!! :D
I did a veryyy rough translation/summary of the next chapter, so read if you want~

Chapter 39 begins with LJ telling herself that she should have rejected/resisted him since the beginning and feels very apologetic to Aseph. Aseph is in shock, saying "don't lie to me" and "Was it all a lie? Are u saying it’s my fault for misunderstanding?"
She says to herself that it’s all her fault and that she screwed up so she doesnt deserve to cry like this. She says to herself that she deceived him when she should have been saving him (? not sure if this is correct but something along those lines lol)
He touches her arm and tells her "No matter what I do, you cannot do that(feel the same)? Don't you love me?" She doesn’t say anything, but says to herself that she does love him and that she's sorry that she can’t answer him honestly. She's crying at this point and Aseph is obviously distraught, but he knows that she is lying.
He says to himself that she made him live without her before and now she expects him to go back to those days again (when he was alone)?
He grabs her wrist and she tries to tell him that she won’t go, but he doesn't listen and they both exit the ballroom leaving everyone in shock.
They're now in a dark corridor with Aseph still holding onto her wrist. LJ immediately pulls away and addresses him as Lord Randell and tells him not to make a scene where there are many people gathered and asks him if he isn't worried what people will think of him after this?
He’s holding her wrist again, frantic telling her, “Then shout! Scream! Tell everyone that Lord Randell has insulted you! Take me to court! Take away my honor and drag me down to the bottom!”
“Lord Randell, please” she begs and Aseph tells her, “You can’t do it, I know you can’t. You don’t love me? That’s a lie. You won’t do that to me. No matter what I do, you won’t scream.”
More tears are falling and then Aseph says “Shall we test it then? I’m curious too...just how far you’re willing to put up with me..” he leans in closer to LJ. “If you don’t want this, just bite my tongue. I’ll never back down until you do. Even if you end up blaming me...”
He kisses her and she kisses him back while they both hold on to each other. She gives into him and then after a while he pulls away. He removes his coat, and places it on her. She looks up at him and Aseph says “You said you didn’t like it..” (think he was referring to the time he tried kissing her before, but now she isnt refusing him)
So he kisses her again. He pulls away again and says “You said you didn’t love me…” she responds “....I don’t love you.”
He’s silent and then says “I feel like you’ve pushed me off a cliff.” She calls him Aseph again and then he tells her that she only calls his name during times like this (when he’s in pain), but other times she just calls him Lord Randell.
She tries to retract, but he says, “You took me to heaven, and now I feel like I’ve fallen into the abyss again. Aren’t you amazing?” he begins to pull out a knife. “I don’t need any of it.. if it’s not with you, it’s all meaningless.”
LJ shouts for him to stop, but he smiles up at her and says “Don’t worry, I could never hurt you.” he points the knife to himself and she begs him to stop and to listen to her. “I’m not going to leave you” she says and tries to take hold of the knife, but he places her hand on the knife and begins to push it into himself. She begs again for him to stop, but he tells her it’s too late.
He thinks to himself that even if he has to resort to doing something like this, he wants LJ to only think of him, but then she shouts and finally reveals the fact that she has a seal. This is how the chapter ends.
Let me know if y'all want me to summarize 40 & 41~ (● ̄(エ) ̄●)
Yesssiiiirrrrr~ pls?ʕ·ٹ·ʔ
please do!! owmygosh ur an angel
Omggg thank youuu and yes please
Pleaseee!!
I beg pleaseeee
Please summarize them too
Lol aseph is such a manipulative yandere
foreal lmaoooo ( ̄∇ ̄")
He is but LJ is an even bigger idiot with poor communication skills! (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
she’s just afraid Aseph might sell his soul for the forbidden seal if he knew LJ has the God’s seal (or something) she’s just trying to protect him bruh
Yeah, I know that but I wish she was a bit stronger because her constantly being the damsel in distress pisses me off! Her personality is probably not going to change but I’m still angered by her.
yyeaaaahhh we really need her to woman up a little more ( ̄へ ̄)
