I don't see the point of reading the next chapters if it end up with this cockroach as a lover. It's not redemption that will erase the multiples traumas provocked by him and if the author choose to gloss over it or downplay it, they are mocking the real life victims of grape and abuse.
Stop glorifying abuser.... I don't care if it's sounds harsh, but korean authors have a knack to keep making trash stories when it's involve homosexual relationship, and I say it as a manhwa fan. Mangas BL isn't flawless too tho ...

So that trash of a male lead dare to say that he will not fake date women who have "bad personnality", are "stupid" or are lacking in any ways but I mean... Look at yourself. You have none of the qualities you search in your partner.
And I hate plot where fat women lose weight in 10 minutes and wow they are sooo beautiful. Nah it's just an insult to people with food addiction, eating disorder and medical or mental condition who end up being fat and struggle losing weight

I actually hate him. He was such a dick with women who had the " audacity " to fall in love with him. Then when he fall in love he get mad jaelous of everyone, and is a controle freak. He is such an awful person. What Sofia did was stupid, but also in part to blame on him for the way he treated her during their fuck buddy relationship. The story is still intresting but it still piss me off that everyone is oblivious to his foul attitude and aren't creeped out by his obsession with Lucia. He is such a red flag. Why should I find a man who is disrespectful to everyone and their mother, but his love interest, cute ? His obsession isn't cute, it's creepy

First of all, all the women entered the relationship clearly knowing it was physical only, but thinking, "I can change him," and he didn't want to change. And with Lucia's previous traumatic life, she needs Hue's obsession over her to regain her confidence as a human being. You'll see, in future, how Lucia is the head of the household and decisionmaker. It's very green flag

Nah king, speak your truth. Why do people act like criticizing characters, art or story decisions in a manhwa means you hate it. Maybe I just love it so much, that I actually think about it a bit deeper than just a quick read over. Sometimes characters are assholes and that makes the story more interesting. Pointing out that they're not great isn't saying that the comic isn't great.

He may not be the greenest flag but I don't find him a red flag.
He slept with the ladies with their consent and informed them not to fall in love with him. He didn't even treat them kindly for them to misunderstand. Except they're all delusional that they could "fix" him. That they could be "the one" for him. After falling in love with Hue, they try to force him to reciprocate which he never will. Yes, you can't control who you fall in love with but you shouldn't overstep your boundaries. They were only bedmates.
As for Hue's behavior after he fell in love with Lucia, yes he's possessive and extremely jealous (kinda like the ladies who fell for him). But he doesn't let those traits of him burden Lucia. He let Lucia go riding, go boating, go hunting. He just made it so it's only females. Lucia didn't mind it and honestly, if it were me in her place I would even appreciate simply because I could be more free without men. And I believe Lucia also would prefer it that way because even if they don't show anything, she did undergo an abusive relationship with her husband in her "past life" so it wouldn't be weird for her to dislike the company of males.
Now about disrespect. Despite being only a Duke, Hue basically has more power and wealth than even the royal family. Most of the people who Hue is mean against kinda deserves it.
Also, you can't forget that Hue was abused as a kid. The only reason he hasn't killed himself is because he needed to take care of the people of Taran Duchy. It's not weird for him to be so cold and emotionless after everything he went through. At least he doesn't abuse people in the name of being a victim like some other MLs.

Definitely the childish here is u. Hue being a cold blooded asshole since the beginning was clearly evident lmfao. You reached one hundred fifty chapters of this manhwa yet you've just realized that now? And if you've realized this since the beginning, the question is, why are you still here? Blaming him for being an asshole when Sofia was literally a jealous bitch. A married woman still thinking about another man yet the blames goes to him. "Hue wasn't like that when we were together" bitch ofc Hue wasn't in love the fuck! Everyone who he fucked were grown ass adults with consent and all those girlies were aware of what kind of man he is You're acting like Sofia defender. You probably someone that tolerates cheating
Y'all are quick to defend negelect. The emperor clearly care little about his son.
Hé had no shame to say to his son " I will abdict and give the throne to Mabel" while aknowledging that his son had to get harsh teachings to become his successor. It's tone deaf.
He act like a riveal to his very young son. He made rash decision and gifted valuable gifts to a baby. That ridiculous.
Can want face that he is plainly a bad father. Just because you like him does not make his actions ok. I feel so bad for the poor boy that has no one who truly care about him
You forget that the only way we had to protect Mabel from that stupid pope guy was to make it impossible for them to take her out of the kingdom. The only way to do that was to make her the ruler. He also let Oscar tell him his opinion on the decision. And Oscar didn't mind at all if it meant Mabel would be safe. Are the gifts too expensive? Yes. Is it because his wife is dead and the children are all that's left? Yes. Also younger children end up getting more attention from parents ALL THE TIME. It's completely normal. And remember that the dad sent Oscar to learn how to be ab emperor from Oscar's mom. She appears cold hearted and cruel but it was necessary so that Oscar would have the ruthlessness necessary for the job. The dad trusted her to take care of him. Tbh it's a completely typical father son interaction. IRL it's typically a best friend situation where dad has more say and the dad doesn't overreach into the son's life.
He said to Oscar that if he want to be emperor, he will find another way. That mean he knew there was another way to keep her.
What the point of asking a todler if he want to be emperor when he was not given the opportunity to voice his opinion in the first place when he started to learn how to be an emperor ?? He was a TODLER, making a decision that would change is whole future.
As an emperor, destroying national treasury to turn the into baby mobile and other stuff is plain irresponsible. Being a little crazy about his daughter is fun but that just stupidity and I tired of this ridiculous behavior. Every single reader here know there is a disproportionate favoritism that even a todler can grasp. Even being the youngest in my family, I never receive sush a favoritism. That a lie. Of course parents spend more time with a baby that an older child, but they usualy don't display such an outraging difference in fondness. Don't normalize it or take me for a fool.
He knew Oscar was getting the cold treatment and said he had not given Oscar enough attention.
And if sush a cold treatment is necessary to be ruler, why not give her the same treatment ? I know very well he will never.
A dad having a best friend relation with his son ? That's not what that story depicted. And you don't act like that with a 6 yo anyway. There is no overeach in making sure a TODLER is being cared for
Anyway it was told many time that the father was a dick since he was a teenager, to the point of being sent to the Battlefield as an only child, it was clear he wasn't meant to be a great father.
Well clearly you didn't read enough to be making such a grand conclusion, because he clearly does care about both his children. He gave the final choice to Oscar and asks whether he actually WANTS to be Emperor. And Oscar says no. And the reason the position was even offered up to Mabel in the first place was to stop her from being kidnapped by a neighboring country. Oscar understands this and also wants to protect Mabel, while also saying how he DOESNT want to be Emperor and is more suited to be a knight.
We are talking about a 6 yo child. If we don't make children vote, it's for a reason. The adults one sidely imposed this education on him and then weirdly listen to him, a CHILD, when they want to remove a birth right from him. My point is I don't feel that they were fair on him. It's my pov. I have other things to do than read a story that piss me off
Bruh. I can't with the tone deaf allegation because what you just yapped is objectively "tone deaf" too. Wanna ask, did the father's actions and choices made Oscar resent her younger sister, Mabel? If so, what made you verdict that its negligence in the father's side? You even forgot that Oscar has a mother while Mabel doesn't. Oh I think I know. It's called double standards. Right. Got it.
I can't even understand what you mean. If Oscar don't hate his sister, how does it it equal no negligence ?? WTF
And why having a mother or not change anything in the way the father treat them.
My critics was on father behavior, why are you acting like I insulted Mabel.
That what I mean by tone deaf. Did you truly read what I wrote ?
Would I comment if I didn't read it? First of all, if the father was really "negligent" towards Oscar, obviously Oscar would've resented Mabel in the first place. He would've resented her for taking the throne, and he would've got jealous already with the attention Mabel got. But lo and behold, we didn't see that. Instead, we see a loving elder brother towards his little sister. And how did that happen? Because the father has never been "negligent" at all. I don't know if you're an only child to think that way, but if not, it sucks being your sibling because you see the lack of attention as signs of negligence. If he were really negligent, then the artist shouldn't have drawn them having their father-son bond at all.
Second, Oscar has a mother which is still alive. Obviously the father would dote more on his daughter to fill in that "motherly warmth" since his daughter doesn't have one. Why are you only hating on the father when his son's mother is still alive and kicking? Is this what people call as toxic feminism or you're just brainrotted to realize that.
And lastly, it really is a bad take. Ever heard of Freudian complex? You're actually the one who is quick to judge it as negligence when in reality, their father-son relationship is quite commendable and ideal whatever era we are in.
Bruh, even the mention of Mabel being gifted extravagantly at some of her precious moments -especially on her birthdays- by the father is pretty out of topic. Like, it would really be something to yap over if the author even gave emphasis on Oscar's precious moments and birthdays too. But we don't. Now, this came out as some nonsensical yapping of some kid who thinks that everything "less" is judged as signs of negligence. Remember, may it be small or big, little or huge, as long as the person is moved by that action is what really matters. If only brain rot is curable atm because this is some trash take ngl
