He has stabbed himself before. That's what Guwon saw in his hand. His body is strange and heals, I'm guessing. He has tried to kill Guwon while asleep before. He probably killed his dad, and Guwon feels he's loose in the head too, probably, they're a match made in Heaven.
wait what omg this makes sense. Because the dad was the one who hit Teach on the head. What chapter did he hurt himself?
You're on to something. I feel he will let himself loose once he learns he killed his father and will have a reign of terror with Guwon. That's the happy ending I wish because, otherwise, this will hurt af.
So... No consequences for his actions? The mother is the monster because she didn't accept him killing the innocent? Sorry, can't really empathize with him... I only hope he improves because... The god in the story "learnt from his wife's love and repented"? And what did he do to atone for the lives lost in his war games? Being sorry isn't enough, an yet he got his wife and all. And Shuraka isn't even sorry. Nope. Sorry, people learn through consequences for their actions, not by being bailed out by others who love them just because (I understand pitying a kid, but what does he even see in this adult him? He's cute, but hasn't even treated him all that well, not really).
... Sorry for the rant, I promise I don't hate the story, I have high hopes for it ┗( T﹏T )┛
I mean in this type of places where being innocent and not trying (what his mother wants obv) will also just ended up with them dying bcs obv shu is a threat to those wanting to touch the crown. The mother is stupid for protecting those "innocent" as if if shu was just a normal royal blooded boy, she wouldn't get killed. His war games? You mean surviving? You read tgcf did you think the mcs didn't kill any innocent? If killing someone even innocent meant surviving, I would do the same
You're right
And why should he feels sorry for? Ppl literally wanted to get rid of him becuz he was a major threat to them, do you think without killing others he would've survived?
Kinda being one sided here OP yeah the mother is valid in protecting the "innocent" & maybe she doesn't have any love for him coz he is the son of the emperor but to condemn Shuraka, a child, trying to survive is a bit hypocritical. Did he not honor his mother's wish by keeping the harem alive? Tei cares coz he still sees Shuraka as that child that needed protection, rn he wants to fulfill his duty as the consort and be there for him but I guess while developing feelings too.
Il-Woo's father was probably the one BaekHee's father killed (which got him in jail). That's why he practises stabbing, he came planning to kill his father's murderer once he got out of jail and then take his own life afterwards. I'm thinking the narration by them may be a testimony in court or to the police. Because BaekHee's father will probably get out of jail soon or something and Il-Woo WILL stab him, but not for revenge but in order to save BaekHee from him. Il-Woo will go to jail for killing him but it won't be a long sentence it being declared self defense by BaekHee's testimony (which he is narrating and is this story). BaekHee will promise Il-Woo he'll wait for him to come out and make him promise not to do something stupid meanwhile, and when Il-Woo tells him that he can't make him wait X years BaekHee will answer that after ten years in fear for of his father's release, the wait for him to come out and them being together again will be a positive chance and in this case he'll be looking forward that moment. Then we'll have a timeskip and them reuniting when he's let go of, kissing happily ever after.
I REST MY CASE, YOUR HONOR
YOOO YOU MIGHT BE COOKING
COOK
yeaah, something like this would make sense, in chapter 3 Ilwoo is walking by gicheon trying to remember an specific place he was with someone (maybe his father) so he was in gicheon before but he barely remembers it
this makes sense
Oooohh, so this world's version of Orias sensei (Lucky Happy, the one who can tamper with luck and Lied had to win against in a game back when gathering signatures in canon, and the Casino's original owner our darlings said they admire and want back, see how his charasteristic symbol the star is in his clothes and all around?) isn't MIA, he's literally between padded walls!! Original was really elegant in day to day appearances while messy when they met him in his downtime in the teacher's dormitories so it fits (he himself said he needed the downtime because manipulating luck is exhausting). In this world I'm guessing he burnt out being the always lucky man in the always lucky Casino and he kinda lost his mind. He must be their secret, they probably hid him away and they're trying to think up something that will get him back on his shoes. But Orias' luck is clearly still working if it got Iruma to find him out of sheer luck.
I must say that this AU version being darker than the original does something for me, we seem to be getting into psychological disorders here (Clara had some of it as well, and Azz has an edgier turn in his loyalty here as well, just as examples)
It was fine, but you can tell their heart isn't fully on it yet. Something is still missing. Can't wait for the emotional blockade to fall and them sharing a real one. Now THAT one will be hot and sweet, I'd expect
Right, everyone is so excited but I'm like for what? This was not exceptional... and Kim Dan broke my heart
Juheon, you are really tiring me out... Few things get on my nerves more than "I will treat you like shit and hurt you to push you away so you don't suffer (and won't tell you a thing)". Treating him him like that is probably hurting him more than whatever you try to protect him from and you deny him even the chance to choose which pain he'd rather go through. This case grates me more than others because he's doing what everyone keeps doing to Dohu: treating him like someone who doesn't feel pain. And Dohu deserves better. He deserves to be treated as a person, not like everyone in his life including his family treated him as. These years his health deteriorated to scary levels, so did Juheon's but at least his case is by choice and with knowledge of what's going on. Dohu is reaching a breaking point and I honestly want him to let it all finally out and cry, and Juheon to se and understand how much damage he's been doing.
When I met Henri for the first time I commented that he and his daughter were two peas in a pod, had the same vibe and probably the same taste in love... I CALLED IT!! She's so similar to Iruma!! And a human as well!! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
There were red flags all over him back then already. He liked her because she was broken and pretty. Predators go after her kind. He wanted someone he could tie and always have below himself. The signs were all there... His whole mindset is based on low self esteem, that's why he only got worse and worse. He saw himself in a bad place, he saw her in a worse one and that made him feel not so low. Afterwards he kept pushing her down so she'd depend on him, she was perfect because she was already isolated and alone. That's how that kind of people work. They push a little, see themselves get away, they push a little more... They can't control their circumstances so they look for someone they can control. It makes them feel important. Such low self esteem is actually sad, but never an excuse for someone to break someone else down in order to feel it less.
Very well said.
This was just... So stupid...
