I wish more MC’s were as cold as Penelope. What a GOAT. No matter how bad some characters are 90% of the time MC’s still forgive them
Istg mom better not try to lock her up, didn’t she already recognize once that forcing her will on Lily is exactly what she did in the past and what got her there in the first place? Let her make her own choices. Also, Fai better not be reaming free like he didn’t almost kill her
Finally that deadbeat is getting what he deserves, but I swear as soon as they try to give him a redemption arc or she forgives him, I dip. Whenever I wanna accept brothers slow redemption I just remember how they treated her when she was SA’d.
I’ve been marinating this, is that conflict with the grooming creep not resolved yet? I wanna come back to this when it is cause I can’t stand the frustration
„I won’t be able to rest so comfortably in his arms anymore”, you could if you really wanted to. He confessed already, you’re the one holding back. I get she’s scared of her sisters, but like she doesn’t even know if they are alive + she risked her life multiple times already. She had critical wounds, got hurt and went through all kinds of situations already, so seriously why is she still so concerned about them? I get trauma and all, but she literally went through war. I don’t think they can do anything worse than that.
I hope Wolf doesn’t get blamed and I hope Fai gets arrested. Yes, he had pure intentions, but he could’ve quite literally just communicate with her/ask her to meet his sister instead of kidnapping her. He shot her and put her in grave danger, just cause he couldn’t try to be upfront. Sorry, but there definitely should be consequences. You don’t get to kidnap and endanger people, just cause u want to do a favor to your family about smth. However, I feel like Lily will pardon him cause she’s way too nice for her own good
I can’t wait to see what she planned. I also love how she always holds them accountable and tells them straight up exactly what they need to hear
She was much nicer to Vinter than in the novel honestly
This is so much anxiety Should I just wait till this is resolved? I’m getting major death flags from AJ, not as in he’s gonna actually die but smth will happen to him.
I knew it, it just would be too complicated if they weren’t her real family. I hope she tells them everything, including how they made her feel.
Also, what makes the empress so confident that those demons won’t kill her? Such a stupid delusion
Jeeez, she really does attract danger. I’ve never seen an MC get into life risking situations as much as her
Hahahaha clingy boyfriend and the one who accommodates him, so cute. I hope they stay fluffy, please no toxicity with these ones
The art is so pretty I just spend so much time admiring it instead of just reading. Also, I love the concept of the apocalypse in this era. It’s pretty unique. Their dynamic is top tier too, and did anyone else notice? Guys are opposite of personality but their eye color is the others hair color and hair color the others eye color. Such cool detail.
I hope we get to see how this started and I wonder if when she tells them the truth she will tell the actual one or make up like a prophecy book. Also, they can’t be too upset about it cause let’s be honest, they wouldn’t have believed her anyways.
Also, I’m guessing Aurora will end up with the OG ML, but am I the only one who thinks they look like siblings?
Also, am I the only one wondering why is the emperor acting like Charlotte is his only daughter? If he cares so much then why not marry Archduke to his legitimate daughter? Like he never even mentioned the possibility of anyone other than Charlotte getting married. Shouldn’t that princess be down for it too? Since that could greatly strengthen her position as he has the highest status in society? It irks me that everyone gotta kiss his ass too no matter what
Okay, I have many thoughts here.
1. The emperor gotta go. Not only is he a deadbeat father, but also a greedy, power-hungry psycho. I don’t see how Cortinians, or however u spell that, are the villains at any point here. I really hope his conquest and atrocities committed by the army won’t be just brushed off. If she inherits the throne then I hope she puts an end to it.
2. Grand duke gotta go, do we even need to explain? Jeez not only is he insufferable, but he ain’t even very significant either. His character honestly makes no sense to me, it’s not very well-rounded.
3. I think I like John the most as a character so far, he seems the most rounded and deep, also has a very interesting chemistry with the FL and is clearly pretty useful and resourceful. I wonder if he has a hidden identity with his trade secrets.
4. Okay… now the ML. Hear me out, I DO like him, okay? But I just think he’s a bit… bland? Like his whole character is just rich, hot and jealous/possessive. He has no depth and for such a powerful man he hasn’t really been useful to the FL much. He hasn’t been of any help when it comes to strengthening her position, she did that all by herself. He’s pretty stuck up btw, with how he clearly looks down on many people, especially commoners and their environment. He’s rather ignorant, wasn’t shown as super intelligent either. I don’t even get why it took them so long to investigate that assassination case? Especially the Fl seemed way too unbothered about it. His PTSD valid, he hasn’t been much of help when it comes to defense either, but that’s an interesting character trait. Just nothing else really made up for it. I wish his relationship with his sister was more explored too.
Overall, I do like the story, but I think characters are pretty superficial, they don’t have much depth. I wish they were more rounded, especially ML. He’s just cliche, but doesn’t really stand out ability wise.
Just to add my last 2 cents, what Kai is doing is very much like sex trafficking. Sell your body for me to pay off your/your family’s debt? Seems familiar?
