The prologue is still my favorite.
I know it’s ‘weird’ for the Duke to be so gung hoe about FL, or that they’re too much, it really he’s a caring guy Only for those he considers His (which would be a treasure to have)
My guess is her stunt put her in his interesting catagory then quickly catapulted into His, because really what child tries to get someone else to kill her (and this wouldn’t have worked if he was a noble piece of trash, and he’s not so the story can work) he cares for his family in his own way, but she’s special because she unintentionally forces him to have to show he cares in Other ways and he has to do it but by bit or it’ll scare her off or to the point she begs for death again
And when or if she ever feels safe enough the Duke will have been showering her with so much love it’s normal by now
It she’s a good kid partially because it’s Her attitude and secondly because she knows what life is like without it and is replaced by hate and greed
The only thing I’m sad about is she doesn’t do this for his own kids, it I’m just gonna assume he tried to show his loves and his kids pushed that form of love away since they were ‘big’ boys now or are Aristocrats
╮(￣▽￣)╭ I’m not sure
He deserved that ten fold.
I don’t blame her for finally snapping.
Just when she finally started to believe in his love, the fear of his memories coming back and he hates her again (or is acting like it)
I wish she could just walk away and leave, she deserves that much
In this Second life they have been nothing but caring and loving
I don’t know what the difference is, if they had the blond girl before they got FL then it’d make sense that the blond caste magic to control, or if they met at parties one by one so the magic seeped in
If in the second life the family subconsciously avoided the blond girl (since they wouldn’t have memories). If blond could poison the Emperor who would probably have great magic and a lot of safety features to protect him… huh wonder if blond corrupts targets magic and then in turn uses targets own magic to influence target. If you don’t know you have cancer (magic or otherwise) how can you fight it and how can you fight it if you trust the source?
So in this second life, I like her family, would you climb a 3 story tree just to save or get your ward/ charge down? Most lords would send a servant, or it’d be one of the kids who wanted a challenge or bragging rights,
It also might have helped that she was much more cautious with the family, but that love had to be there in the first place ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
So yes I’ve forgiven but I have not forgotten the treatment
My guess is the bitch can control peoples emotions but it's not too strong, like, she didn't get to eat the fruit
I wouldn’t wish my worst enemies which him. If he cared I. The beginning then she wouldn’t have cause any problems. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
If he had cared to have the servants treat her normally rather than abuse her, she wouldn’t have resorted to such measures, if, if, if.
This “ML” sure loves to dig his own grave and really does he even love her or just love an idea of her, he one that loved her lover and misses him dearly because he was the only one who care for ‘her’ not her title, not her family name, her.
Honestly it would have been a much better story if the lover was the one to get the FL (and that saying something since I love black hair and not so much white or blond)
The only possibile love I see forming is Stockholm syndrome e cause she really doesn’t have a choice , he’ll if FL is able to die without Ellie taking the brunt of ML’s wrath I’ll call it a happy end.
That’s how messed up he is, and how toxic this relationship is
And anyone in their orbit crashes and burns in horrible ways （/TДT)/
So like, I’m just waiting for the emperor to shoot at the duke to kill him and it either hits or she takes the hit and a revolt will probably happen
And o m G they are so fucking cute together! Then I get to the ‘end’ with their future selves are demon and holy fudge! I want ALL of them to be happy!
So like I’m thinking threesome.
We got grand Duke her Past his future, Her now and Grand Duke now
I don’t want any one of them to be unhappy (⌒▽⌒)
But if it won’t end in the threesome I’m hoping past/future empress might wake up as a demon to spend the rest of her life with past/future demon Duke!
If I ever ended up Isekai into this story I’d happily work as a servant for the grand Duke and ship threes two so god damn hard! (≧∀≦)
She never asked him and always assumed.
She never told him why she never told the truth about being cursed by the witch.
She may have done it to ‘protect’ his innocence.
She knew he wanted to say goodbye to Daisy, that he at the very least had a friend that he Truly cared about..l
She tried I’ll give her credit there, but did she ever Listen to her son? She didn’t explain and only told (if she even did that *eye roll*)
I can’t help but wonder if he was never curse would he still be unhappy. I’d believe it. A son trying to be a ‘good son’ for a sad queen/ mother
How come guys get to read about hot chick with animal parts and get a harem?
Like I bet that a lot of guys like to she girl chests, but honestly… I wanna see guy chests!
How come the guy mystical animals are more buff cow than really hot dudes, center guys are ‘eewwww’
I still like this story but I kind of wish their were stories like this for girls (or guys I’m not picky)
Honestly the closest I ever got to this was fruits basket
I don’t want to read twilight, I hate Bella’s character and she gets with the guy I don’t care for…
Sorry sorry, I know I’m complaining but why do guys get the good stuff (￣ε(#￣)Σ
Bruh same. I want a girl to be the lead on here instead of the guy. I forgot his name, I watched the anime years ago and I fucking forgot. But I wish I had all of monster girls as my partners and I would be okay with it. Like why can't we get that, no hate but damn; I wish I was in his place and that this was a GL harem manga(｡・//ε//・｡)(｡・//ε//・｡)
Yeah I can get behind that, though mine would be more cuddle harem and not so romantic
Makes sense, Since this is for straight men they use the typical "The female of the species is hotter and more rational than the man" or "a female race were all are attractive in a conventional way" to be fair there are some races that are in fact just females like Lamias and Harpies, but why not a hot snake guy too, is fiction anyway.
Btw I think the closest we have for that kind of stuff, more than Harem is Yaoi, I've heard is easier to come up for raunchy stuff when all of the characters are males, because with women they end up falling in gender stereotypes and have to be careful on how they show kinky stuff. With a male tho, you can go crazy.
Wonder if the queen did it to stop him from chasing her, it’s been a while since I read, but maybe also that girl and is being petty.
It could maybe her brother that guy with the long hair he seems suspicious
