I think Cliff's ending is fitting
He lived in a world basically made for him, rigged to make him the center of attention and easily overcome challenges
He's not dumb or incompetent, but while Killian is familiar with failing and struggling to succed, Cliff always succeeded with minimal effort, which seems good for you, but on the long run, it's terrible, because you don't learn that there's nothing wrong with making mistakes, when you can get up and try again
Cliff isn't even trying, he's a perfectly able person, who managed soldiers and was supposed to inherit a good chunk of land
And he's smart enough to learn another language, he's got no reason to cling to the author
If he acknowledged that he made a mistake by following her and started dealing with his new reality, I'm sure he'd bounce back
His ruin is his own fault, not because he chose her, but because he refuses to accept his new life and move on
They could've explored this a little better

Ah yes
The classic "why talk when we could fuck while worrying about our relationship?"

I like that the kids act like kids and aren't perfect little angels lol

Seven_silly_spiders September 6, 2025 12:07 am

Hmmmmmm
I've got a feeling their lighthearted teenage relationship os gonna get heavily tangled in financial issues
Maybe he saved up for college, but she suddenly started facing financial problems, so he gave up the money for her?
Shit like that can destroy a couple on the long run, because if not well resolved, it can make resentment pile up and be brought up in arguments in the most nasty way
Especially if it's a toxic person, they could shift the blame of everything that went wrong with their lives to a single decision they regret

This was so fitting
It's not 100% fluff (they still have to fight that monster), but to be honest, it would be weird if Penelope herself suddenly became a completely happy person because of the "power of love"
This is all kinds of bittersweet
Also Calisto may be following his mom's steps unconsciously, because he's also so in love with Penelope that he's willing to throw literally everything out of the window for her
I really hope Penelope can find a way to exist in the same world as him without fearing for her life

Hmmmm I want to like Yurien, but I'm just not feeling it
Sure, he managed to stop her (for a while), and didn't kill her, but are you telling me he just stood there in front of her in silence, expressionless, every day and from those extremely limited interactil she fell for him??
I really don't see it, it's too delulu for me
It seems he's the ML, but even if he has the power to read her mind, there's so little actual communication between them

    Its is quite hard to believe. At first I also did not understand his decision to keep the wielder of the curse sword in a dungeon instead of killing her.

    But alas everything will be explained. Please be prepared I cried so much for this story.

    Yeah I thought for sure he either has to have mind reading abilities or have lived a past life without the sword where he fell in love with MC.

    Enjoy (≧∀≦)

Yeaah... I think it's gonna take him a while to realize that the excess of controlling behaviour and possessiveness has a direct correlation to his increasing levels of anxiety...
Also I think experience with previous relationships can be good in knowing what to expect in general, but if you don't try to learn anything about yourself emotionally, it doesn't really make that much difference
Lots of poeple who keep dating the same type, repeating the same relationship dynamic and end up breaking up for similar reasons over and over
I think Jiwon would be like this no matter who he ended up with, maybe it's even more aggravated because Jungwoo is also famous, but I can totally see him metaphorically cornering himself in any other relationship
They'll both have to learn what's the best way to deal with his anxiety :/

I think I'll let this marinate for the next 10 chapters
I have a feeling this one is gonna be a little more troublesome than the other concubines and cliffhangers are gonna be my doom

    AWV August 31, 2025 1:15 pm

    Definitely she sat, waited and watched and not the good way

Seven_silly_spiders August 31, 2025 12:00 pm

I love that he acknowledged that he screwed up BAD back then, and he put it into words perfectly
And I'm absolutely melting over the fluffiness overall
Now I understand why she wanted to go back so badly, it's for her mom, the only good person who loved her properly back then┗( T﹏T )┛
I like Calisto, but Penelope deserves everything and more, so I hope that even if she decides she still wants to go back, I hope he goes with her

    Jean n em OHHH August 31, 2025 12:29 pm

    Me too! I know a lot of ppl want her to stay there with him, but I can’t help but think if I were in her shoes, I would want to go back home to the world I know. The world where my actions have no strings attached whatsoever. In this world, she constantly feels the weight of her actions fearing for her life, it added so much mental strain on her that I can’t help but think she’s going to go back home. As much as I want her to be with Callisto, I don’t think she will stay unless the “strings attached” aspect of her current world is eliminated. I hope that of the world does magically end after she completes the final part and it doesn’t give her an option to stay, that she will find Callisto waiting for her in her reality. I just want them to be together BAD

Of course the couple who literally looks like they're twins, ended up having twins
It's not even unrealistic anymore tbh, otherwise we wouldn't have had that trend "dating or siblings?"
