Nooooo Enzooooo plsssss be the toppppp mannnn Σ( ￣□￣||)
Personally after reading this I felt -" Woah this ML sure was a scary man " like so genius twisted personality but in the end he was able to save everyone (through his manipulative n dirty scheme) . More like all is well that ends well
Everyone in the comment section is asking why isn't the FL doing anything. Tell me what should she do?
1) Run away - only to get caught after 10 mins
2)Ask the 2nd ML to release Shinpei - She did and even begged him too that resulted in nothing
3) Should help ML overcome his every problem - From the past 40 chapters she was exactly doing that only which she thought finally worked but in the end he returned back to his Psycho tendencies
4) Should jump in between the fight - only for Shinpei to end up protecting her n seeing her beloved dying
5) Should ask to stop the wedding - Only to end up making enemies of the most powerful family of their country....she is already not able to handle her father, how will she handle the duke
What she is doing currently
Knowing that duke 's family are sympathetic towards her with the eldest son liking her . She was trying to gain their support n suppress her father ( even if she had to marry) in order to atleast protect her loved ones from almost dying again . This way no one has to die . Later with more time given to her , she could have convinced 2nd ML for a divorce which she believed she could. Perhaps because she thinks she could die any moment, her priority should be protecting the ones who care about her rather than her future which she thinks doesn't exist.
This makes sense but she has to do something because if she doesn't do something soon shinpei's gonna kill everyone person around her or maybe die himself.
U know personally I feel she is in a worse possible scenario. Her best option which I think she can do now is pretty dark
Kill her father (or perhaps get him kidnapped n pretend he has died) n making her act like she needs to return to the position of head of her family now then officially breaking off the marriage. She should then lock Shinpei up in a room. Then she should threatening Shinpei up by putting a knife around her own neck that if he doesn't get his shit right she is killing herself that instant which will get Shinpei to act normal. Then ....I don't know somehow make Shinpei pretend as a foreign noble who is offering a marriage proposal to her then in a pretend get married to him then ...I don't know steal lots of money from her house n run away with Shinpei to some far away land n start off fresh . What do u think?
I think, she should should just hug shinpei and shield him from others while begging him or threatening (by saying she'd kill herself) him to stop and then welp I think she should run away with shinpei while the other three who were with shinpei protect them from other. run away as far as they can and settle down and live happily for what so counted day she has
that would be so sweet
So basically the God of this story was sad that one character ended up with sad ending so to make his story happy she ended up making other's story the unhappy one and now she satisfied?
But the only reason why Diana got her happy ending was thanks to Kael (like it's often the case in dramas with the 2ML). So it did feel unfair. I think the way they both abandoned him to his own death made the 'happy ending' sour and not satisfying at all. They weren't worthy of his sacrefice.
She literally stated that she did not think hestia would act like that.
You know I read a similar story before I got to this manhwa . It's a popular one
I picked up the 2nd ML after the ending
The scenario was exactly the same ....the 2nd ML committed crime n his best friends ML and FL abandoned him n sent him to the coldest region to live in exile. Feony the MC , she didn't went to take revenge against them , she just simply go to The 2nd ML to give him happiness. When he became happy with his life , issues between 2nd ML n his best friends after few talks immediately got resolved but in this case I feel things could have resolved in a better way . Now suddenly Diana is abandoning her plans of revenge n all because only now she is ready to accept her reality after everything n every planning she decided to do . Just like I didn't like the FL of that story , I don't like Hestia aa well but still there really was a better way to handle everything.
Even when Hestia didn't intervened, Diana's life still imploded (cause she wasn't worthy of her powers anymore, she helped cover the corruption of the temple and eventually ended up getting a divorce) so I don't think it's as much "destroying the other characters happiness for one character" but "let's make sure this guy doesn't end up dying after being treated awfully by a couple that isn't even going to last anyways"
What's the name of that story please?
It's also about giving her the ending she really deserved. Diana was a bitch who thought she was better than everyone because of her powers, thinking she was the chosen one. And you're right, the reason why she lost her powers is most likely because the god wasn't happy with the way she turned so selfish and shallow. So that explains why the god wasn't mad at Hestia, Diana had already lost the her favor.
I picked up second male lead after the ending.....it's actually more popular than this one
You know at the beginning of this manhwa when Hestia meets Diana for the first time....I felt somewhere that there was still a possibility of her not going to the wrong side u know..... somewhere she was influenced by the church and her own believes that she forgot what her actually duties as a saint were. She believed spreading the moral of life away from materialism n living a simple life is what she needs to preach ....well till that time I still believed she could go back to normal or accept her reality now . If Hestia had tried to deal this not in a revenge manner, I think everyone could have had a happy ending
Well I think ML did right in a way. I have read many Guideverse stories n since the MC did not had any regeneration (E class) powers he was basically the same as a normal person . It was like he just use his power once then all his powers are finished too he ends up being a normal person. The country exploited him because he was S -class. I think the only way ML actually had in order to prevent him from dying was to medically release him from his duties .
Besides the MC was so patriotic it was next to impossible to convince him not to go on mission. Though ML 's methods were really forced n all still I also see it was the only way to protect him from getting exploited . I think that's why the author has shown so many incidents of MC almost dying.
Yes Guys hate me all you like but I want to ship these two both Satoko and The Second ML. But Yeah would love it if this happens after they become good friends or partners who feel support of each other
Poly...?! Only reason i dont think thats happening is because he clearly dislikes him
Just hopes that This 2nd ML don't end up dead . He is too good
I have never felt Diana to be a wrong person in this story for some reason. I know that currently she has gone crazy but at the start of this manhwa, Diana was the saintess , she and Helios had many times told Kael not to solve problems in a violent ways but when he went to far , she couldn't forgive his acts and decided to let go of him inorder to punish him . After which Kael tried to kill himself ....it was shown that as his friends they should have never abandoned him but did he ever tried to act through the problems in a way their friend requested . All they said is that they never want to see his face but he ended up killing himself which ended up one of the reasons of their divorce.I have always felt they were not wrong at all .
I can see your perspective. All I would add is that some of the key pieces they mentioned was that Karl’s actions with the previous duke(?) was needed although not preferred. Karl took the fall because Helios was the crown prince and couldn’t risk it. It’s not wrong to have your own beliefs and such. However, Helios was aware of the situation being unavoidable and still partook in condemning Kael while knowing he was able to happily marry Diana because of it. Nothing wrong with them being happy or anything. But Kael removed that obstacle for them as a friend and understood the urgency from a political perspective too. Yet in order to comfortably wrap everything up, they painted him as a villain for their own sake. It’s kind of a toss up honestly. I feel like Diana would have been better off if they hadn’t coddled her every time something complicated or contradicting came up. Even now, she’s throwing her own beliefs used to pin Kael as a villain out the window because she no longer has the endless love from everybody around her. (￣∇￣")
Wow..... No, neither of them is innocent but at least the crown prince is redemptive and have the best of the empire in his heart. Diana on the other hand believed she is simply special because she is a saint, then of course it's normal to receive love and admiration. Through the story, you will see her hypocrisy and it'd have been exposed long before if there were any worthy rivals before Hess. The thing about the Kaelus getting rid of the opposing duke family was in best interest of both his alleged friends. Hypocrites enjoy the results done by other people and preach about peaceful solutions (there is no such a thing as they are average in thinking and Kaelus is far more capable than them, so they made it his fault and labelled him evil). I could have tolerated Diana if she really liked the crown prince and may be felt apologetic towards Kaelus, but she simply chose the higher position being a crown princess than a marchioness before he became a duke he was a marquess.
Diana's a self righteous bull head that thinks she's right all the time and that SHE could never do or be wrong. She sees the world in black and white. She believes that threatening someone, even to stop INJUSTICE is morally wrong and to her, Cael became no different than the nobles he threatened.
Why is this problematic you may ask? Because this kind of rigid morality ignores context, nuance, and consequences. Cael was trying to protect other from corruption and harm, but Diana solely focused on his methods, not his intention or result.
Diana doesn't try to understand why Cael did what he did, or the emotional burden it left on him.
Instead of offering compassion or guidance, she abandons him at his lowest point.
She’s a saintess, someone expected to show mercy, empathy, and wisdom, YET she FAILS at all three when it comes to Cael, who desperately needed support.
Some peoples interpretations about her suggest Diana lives in an idealized fantasy of justice, disconnected from the reality of politics and power.
She expects pure outcomes from pure methods, ignoring how messy real change can be.
This makes her look naive at best, or hypocritical if she benefits from Cael’s sacrifices while condemning them.
While at the start they're not exactly in the wrong for distancing themselves from Kael, they completely ignore what they had gone through together, practically disregarding their entire relationship. Like, sure, they were the crown prince and said prince's future wife, but Kael was their friend, and the two of them simply act as if he was a stranger. Even if they did condemn his actions and had the right to distance themselves from him, they could have also at least tried to talk things out so that all parties were on the same page, out of consideration for their friendship-- but they were both too stuck up to do so, and too stuck up to *actually* (legally) punish him too. They (mostly Diana tbh) berated him, acted all high and mighty like their sense of justice was this great thing, but then didn't actually do anything other than ostracize Kael. Even after hearing that Kael tried to kill himself (in this lifetime it was only once, but in the past one it had been multiple, multiple times), they don't reach out. Diana was even worse than Helios, considering he actually considered apologizing but Diana was the one to convince him otherwise.
Even if you consider Kael to be in the wrong for "mudering" (or staging the murder of) the duke and his daughter, this does not mean Diana and Helios were right for how they handled it.
There's also the fact Diana really does not even try to be a proper queen, and just wants the people around her to adapt to her wims; she's childish as all hell, only thinks of herself as being a saint when it benefits her, and still has the gall to think of herself as being better than others. What she did to Kael was never out of actual moral righteousness-- it was because she felt morally superior to him, and didn't want taint that superiority. Actual moral righteousness is never this black-and-white; it has nuance. And Diana doesn't care for nuance. She doesn't kill, so she will not associate herself with Kael after he has killed (nevermind her boyfriend being a crown prince, because she clearly does not understand the implications of being a monarch)-- she didn't try to legally punish him, she didn't try to change Kael's mind on why murder isn't ok, she didn't try to understand why and how it happened, and she didn't feel the need to understand if Kael was ever the kind of person who would resort to murder in the first place! If she thought Kael was the kind of person to do this, she shouldn't have associated with him– but either she had a fundamental misunderstanding of his sense of justice, or something made him act out of character. She, however, neither cared nor felt conflicted about what happened, and proceeded to not think twice before simply throwing him out of her life.
It just showed how much she actually valued Kael; as an asset rather than a person. I don't even think she has gone crazy rn; she's just showing the kind of person she truly is because things are going out of control.
Yeah you are right about this .....they could have handled this situation better and could have saved Kael too. They just didn't try
I didn't thought from this point of view
Yeah ..... instead of completely abandoning him , she really should have shown compassion and forgiveness....maybe then he wouldn't have committed suicide
After you put it this way .....I also feel she was really seeing him as an asset
Thank you so much Guys....Ever since I was reading this story. I kind of did understood that Diana was not a good person but for some reason I also felt pity for her too . This made me more clear about her
This are some of the reason I don't like Diana and they show she wasn't a saintess at all.
Kael gave a bribe to the church under Diana's name so that Diana could have a stable standing with the church since she is a commoner ( land called illion)( Diana knew of the bribe and knew how it had benefited her so she didn't want to give it back to Kael)(Chapter 6,9)
After becoming the crown princess, Diana didn't heal the common people, only nobles ( She was made saintes by God to help the common people but decide to marry into royalty Intead, choosing nobility instead a common life.) (Chapter 9)
The pink diamond ring that Kael was gonna use to propose to diana which he gave to Hestia ( Diana knew that Kael was thinking of proposing to her using that diamond and she made this aware to Hestia) (Chapter 17)
Diana rejecting Kael " I choose Helios. After all, who could ever refuse him? ( Diana made it sound like she didn't even think of Kael as an option and never though of rejecting Helios at all) (Chapter 22)
Pretended that she was still in good terms with him when he went to see the king in the palace ( Diana had previously said that she was cutting ties with him but now is acting as it that didn't happen) (Chapter 1, 28)
Diana commenting that Hestia should also 'dress accordingly' like her. ( Diana is implying that Hestia spent alot of money on the dress that she is wearing, we know that it's just a remade dress . It was Diana that used alot of money for her dress) (Chapter 32)
While talking to Helios, Diana says she can't forgive Kael since that would compromise her principles ( Didn't Diana already compromise her principles by becoming a princess, soon to be queen and trying to be accept by the nobles while leaving the common people to fend for themselves without the saintess healings) (Chapter 35)
After Hestia disagree with Diana at the Tea party, Helios and Diany used their power as prince and princess to forced her to apologize ( This reinforces the ideas the Diana gave up on her principles because she is now using her standing as a princess to make Hestia apologize even though Hestia didn't do anything wrong in making Diana aware that she judge Kael to harshly considering that the nobles he took care of where child trafficking even leading a rebellion against the Empire, which they would have been killed by Empire if Kael hadn't done it first) (Chapter 33)
I have read the novel which was a little more detailed compare to the manhwa about their thoughts towards each other.
The ML treated FL like an angel of his life(before he met her). But when he got to know her he realised that she was ignorant towards everything that was happening in the real world ...more like a sheltered n spoiled little princess which made the ML develop hatred towards her . But the fact she was his everything made him mentally so weak that he was always fighting in his mind whether to hate her or love her or tell her about his life . Infact in novel ..he said he didn't told her anything bcoz somewhere he also wanted to treat her like a princess who has to never seen any real life struggle but still wished that she makes an approach to ask about him first which she didn't which made his hatred towards her grow more but like I said he struggled as he loved her too much as well.
literally my thoughts
For the FL .....well as I said above...she was a sheltered Princess who all her life did nothing but work to achieve her dreams of becoming the greatest pianist ever. So much that she was a nerd for it . In fact her father had created an environment where all she can do is focus on her dreams without worrying about her life . When her father got assassinated....she was still in her teens who was so shocked about everything that was happening around her her family getting killed by the orders of someone she loved ....it was too much for her too bear. She had never seen what real life struggle actually were and what really happened was that she had to face the harsh reality in such a chaos that she could not face it . She ran away from it . ML was sad for her but was also disappointed about her discussion of running away from reality but you know he was unaware that she was weak and that this was too much for her to bear and by the time he realised this ....she had already became suicidal. Now when she has grown up alot she only regrets about her past discussions. So I will say that both FL and ML are not at fault it was the situation that made them faulty
Yup
"And with this the little dragon brother also ended up meeting his soul mate but that is another story"
