I’m tired of all the tragic male leads having the same storyline. It’s always the beloved mother dying during childbirth and the father hating the child for it. Can we get a little variety or something? Or at least a more plausible/understandable reason for the ML’s father to hate him?
I think stories like this are so funny. Where the FMC has a really niche talent from her past life or something, and it’s usually an everyday talent but somehow the whole empire and neighbouring countries treat her like she’s a God. Another example of this is the Duchess’ 50 Tea Recipes. I never take them too seriously because it’s so unrealistic the way they’re exhaulted by everyone and everything for something so basic but I like reading them anyway
I really like how in this story almost so the people who are helping the empress are women.
I feel like normally in stories like these they create a reverse harem situation where all the possible LIs have a chance to help the FL when she’s having a crisis or even when she can handle it herself one of them come at the end for one reason or another. It always takes away from the “strong FL” that the author is trying to create and I always think it’s annoying tbh.
I like how in this story the empress doesn’t recurve much help even from the emperor it’s not like she’s really recurving his help it’s more like she’s telling him what she wants to do and he’s going along with it. The only other male “helper” she has is Sing and he doesn’t interfere with her plans either.
She doesn’t really need anyone’s help and all her “pawns” (for lack of better wording) are all women. Even the petty villains that arise are mostly men rather than the typical jealous, evil woman who wants the ML’s attention (even though we had a couple of those too).
Idk it’s not like this is the most amazing story I’ve ever read and I definitely think it’s being dragged out a little bit but I find it refreshing.
I come back to read the recent chapter every few weeks cause I’m waiting for Jaekyung to finally start treating Dan better but he’s literally just getting worse like this chapter caused me physical pain I guess I’ll check in again at chapter 80

I don’t know I pity Kanna a little but not a lot. It would be one thing if Sylph was actually a villainess and she just followed the original storyline of the plot. But the fact that Sylph didn’t do anything and Kanna framed her and got her exiled and potentially killed just suppresses any sympathy I may feel for her
Just binge read this entire thing. So glad I decided to wait until it was properly translated. The revenge was so, so satisfying, there isn’t anything more I could ask for. Although I know some people think that Lizbeth’s punishment was drawn on for too long, I think the author did a really good job of cleaning everything up. I really love the detail that if Duke Killen hadn’t killed the late , Lizbeth could’ve entered the palace, if I was her that would’ve killed me inside. All I want is maybe a couple side stories showing Lyanna and Alex’s lovey dicey life and Alex and Albert’s improved relationship. I felt really bad for Albert, especially when he came to see Alex after he woke up, he’s such a sweetheart.
