Glam hero shot all the way!! Also, I actually like Renee / Yiyoung's character. I got bored with self-sacrificing emotional noble stereotypical FL. She spoke like a businesswoman at times
Absolutely zero regret in my life for starting this story .
The story is so rife with familial love that it warms my heart so much
On a side note, I am quite curious how Mabel's mom (Siana) got together with the Emperor (Evan). I mean, Evan already had Oscar with the previous Empress (Duchess Donovan). To think Siana was also close friends with Duchess Donovan.. Did she steal her best friend's husband???? (Surely it is not going to be that scandalous.. I hope..).. Did they have an affair, did he cheat, or were they already divorced when Siana and Evan fell in love? Gosh I AM SO CURIOUS!!
To be honest, author made grave mistake in final chapters when they decided to invalidate love that Seria felt for Callis as her mere 'fixation to cling to life or to survive' (and that it was not really love). The fact that it was love made Callis's betrayal even more real and painful like in the beginning of the story. It was unnecessary to add that plot; i.e. as if to spin the love Seria felt for Callis to be worthless.
What author-nim should have pointed out was that Seria's awareness that her love for Rouche actually ran deeper and greater. Such that it could not even be compared to Callis. Her love for Rouche transcended her current life in itself.
That piece of plot was not needed the first place. Other than this, I feel the story actually was quite well made. It was actually an enjoyable read.
I tried so hard to stay but starting from chapter 40 - 50 (the Berkein's family arc) was just full of fillers to be honest. And chapter 50 - 54 was just tea party. Chapter 55 onwards was Monsters arc. All fillers created merely to highlight FL's achievements. It adds absolutely NOTHING to main plot.
I'd rather see development on the original novel's plot debunk, e.g. Duke Renke retaliation and destruction, deepening romance, the kids growth etc.. Those would be much more fulfilling than the meaningless fillers. Disappointing.
Dropped the story by chapter 55. Many apologies.
Last update was 2023. Safe to say the story has been discontinued? I was so sad it left at a cliffhanger （/TДT)/ （/TДT)/ （/TДT)/
So basically, in the end, they didn't get married right? Tying up with what she declared last time in the Imperial Ball, Killian became her lover (perhaps until death do them part).. Man, I kind of wanted them to get married. She would make such a pretty bride, and he a dashing groom. ╥﹏╥
Idk how to feel about this.. 12 yo is very very obviously looking much like a child..... I've heard of 37yo vs 22yo. Sure. But starting at 12yo is just ... Though yes, historically humans did that. Nowadays, it feels pedoish. Many apologies..
（￣へ￣）so basically she was ugly in just about 3 chapters for us, and she was pretty for the next 130 chapters or so. Dropping this at chapter 5... I thought it would be a journey to self acceptance and improvement as she became prettier inside and out but no... Shebecame pretty w zero effort right from the get go. Meh..
That evil emperor is just sooooo annoying!!! Just die already you old man.. I wish he could have suffered more and longer than just a few panels.
Like a masterpiece from a Shounen Jump. Incredible really. Been a while since I last read anything of this quality from a webtoon at that. DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED! Downside is that it looks like this story got rather a looong way to go before we get to any ending.
