The fact that only his mom knows that he’s gay, this is so sad
But seriously, I’m gonna be sad cause I think something bad is gonna happen to his mom and I told myself not to read too much spoilers and just suffer(I usually read spoilers unless I’m REALLY excited for a story)
Also I want to see everybody’s reaction to the fact that yjh is his most loved one XD
Spoiler(?):
But I am very glad I read a spoiler about how kdj doesn’t end up with anyone by the end and it’s open ended about that, cause that means I can remain delulu about him ending up with yjh lol XD
I love how with each Heejae pov update, the more I’m calling Heejae a dumbass XD he’s just a bit silly isn’t he lol
Almost the same level as when in a manhua I read, where the ml got tricked by mc because they played a girl character, the ml kept commenting on how white the mc’s ears are. AND IM LIKE SIR???? WHY ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION TO HIS EARS SO MUCH. You gotta be really down bad for that XD

Ml is so stupid I could not stop laughing at him trying not to be gay(haven’t read latest chapters though)
I honestly was so surprised when domina died, cause that was like the first good(?) character death in this series that my brain legit couldn’t process it for a second XD THEN EVEN MORE PEOPLE DIED AND DOMINA SUDDENLY COMES BACK AND THEN DIES AGAIN. I WAS LOSING IT.
But I’m really glad it kept to a kind of gag(?)-like tone and don’t have any actual character deaths(by the end, everybody is resurrected and healed and stuff). Especially since this IS a story about Mash just wanting to live in peace with everyone, and if some of those people died, it wouldn’t feel like a perfect victory.
Again, loved this story so much and I just loved how it stayed committed to Mash completely ruining the mood and tension of the story XD also really nice that he didn’t actually “awaken” magic or something in the end and that he just needed pure unadulterated muscles to beat everybody lol XD
There’s so many stuff that was funny but I legit spat out my drink when he stopped the sword with his FUCKING EYELIDS. Also the continental(literally) kickboard was so funny XD
I’m gonna miss this story and I kinda wish for like a slice of life spin off at this point of just mash graduating with everyone and becoming a patisserie lol, just him actually living in peace with everyone, and maybe even connecting with some of his brothers, like domina(turned absolutely baby at the end and I love that for him)
Also I love how the ending is like a callback to the first chapter.
Where innocent zero thinks mash is about to use magic when mash picks up his wand and is confused. However, mash just uses it to swing back the water and innocent zero’s like dumbfounded at his use of the wand XD
which fits perfectly for when he picks up his Pop’s wand in the first chapter and then the police guy thinks he’s about to use magic and is confused, but then mash just throws the wand at him like a bullet, and the police guy is just dumbfounded at his use of the wand lol
It’s very fitting that the series starts and ends with him “using” the wands of his “fathers” (Pops is his only real dad let be real here)
Yeah best decision of my life was stopping myself from reading this manga after mujin came into the picture. I can already tell I’ll be pulling my hair out from this so I’m just gonna wait till everything is out and see how people react at the end, to see whether I’ll continue reading it lol
Spoiler
He did, it was funny when he went to confront Jaewoo and Hyunjin and after coming to know the truth he cried like a baby. (Even his subordinates we're shocked, although later he threatened to kill them if they did not forget.) Bro didn't even cry at Jaewoo's funeral. He continues to visit their shop and eat there frequently.
I took a sentence from the Korean novel and translated with an app, somewhat it says this: not sure what he meant by the second part.
"Therefore, continue to love Hyunjin. Pour out your affection to the extent that you cannot die even if you want to. ??Then, someday, I will be able to meet Jaewoo again?? It won't be easy to get there, but i never thought of giving up."
Before that, he mentioned that he wouldn't leave things as they were, emphasizing that he had ample time and was quite persistent.
He's still lowkey obsessed with him, he gives Jaewoo gifts and shii, but that's it. I suppose the leak i gave was a bit inaccurate, he does NOT give up pursuing bro, but he's not that obsessed over him that he's forcefully splitting them up or kidnapping nd shiii.
Okay so I’ve only read the official translations (chapter 91) and I’m so confused on what’s happening in the latest chapter there. When did a rumor start between the two??? Did I miss a chapter??? I’m so confused. There was like no explanation or even a scene of the two interacting. The songstress literally sang and then that was the scene. Like, I’m just so confused rn. Please someone explain
I was also confused timeline-wise, but 92 fills in the blanks! If you read 92 and are still confused:
[Spoilers ofc]
A few days prior to the ball, the empress brings the songstress to the palace and orders her to seduce the emperor. --> ML brings her to his room to save her --> rumors created in the palace bc maids see her go in/out --> she sings at the ball --> he is shocked bc this isn't in their plan --> he appears captivated [not enough for rumors alone, but added circumstantial evidence] --> he seeks out the songstress after --> ch. 91 convo happens.
Because he is with HER instead of Fiona, it's secluded / private convo, AND he's touching her, the rumors have now entered the noblesphere via the maids, where it would overlap with the palace rumors to create the idea that he is having a blatant affair!
Okay that makes more sense! I was so confused cause that was never shown or even hinted until this chapter, so the the rumor just felt so out of left field lol XD
Also, he also had to get “her” out of that situation since… you know… the emperor and empress will find out that she’s a he lol (unless emperor is into that Lolol XD)











You know, if the author wasn’t such a jealous and self centered bitch, they wouldn’t have to be worried about their authority being broken and growing old/breaking the cycle.
The first exception broke because mc lost all hope because of the author’s antics.
The second rule broke because SHE herself told killeon to invite Edith out(which she rejected 10 times in a row, fulfilling the exception)
Finally(spoiler about third exception),
She’s the one that caused the kidnapping incident or at least manipulated it in some way, and then left Edith there to take the blame. That’s when she gives up her life and accepts being killed by Killeon at the trial and that breaks the last exception.
All of those times, this was caused by the author’s meddling and need to be at the center of the world. If she, let’s say, decided for this Edith to also just be happy for this cycle, they would still have their authority by the end of the series and can restart like a new cycle or some shit.
Anyway, bitches always get their just deserts because of their bitchiness lol
everything would have been the same if she didn't get greedy and tried not to get rid of Edith. Just because the previous ediths went to same path as the original ones it does not mean that anyone who will take over as the new edith will do the same.
She could have continuously be the focus if she just let Edith all alone
It wasn’t her first time playing this scenario, she played it so many times where she’s the heroine and Edith dies all the time, she enjoyed the fact Edith died , until the system changed when this new “ Edith” reincarnated. She loves the control she has over others, she doesn’t care for love, she is possessive evil bitch who relishes in others pain.
Yeah and that’s the exact reason for her downfall. Her evil antics are what gave Edith a chance to even fulfill the exception conditions. Again, it’s just bitches getting what they deserve and we love to see it lol
Yeah like, she would’ve still ended up with the ML, and the only thing that would change is that Killeon wouldn’t be at her beck and call. But GOD FORBID if not everybody is paying attention to Reeze lol
Why did I now just realise that the previous dead Ediths were all reincarnations?! So basically she was killing all of them , people from real world, and not just novel characters and ahe knew it! Someone who doesn’t know this would have given her the benefit of the doubt thinking that she thinks of this world as just a fictional universe in a novel and the characters are not real humans if u know what I mean, this idea has been around in several other manhwas where the heroine realises that the characters are real people and should treat them as so. She’s the worst, basically a serial killer. I ll prepare popcorn
LITERALLY.
her reasoning is that she got bored, like wtf???
