This story would’ve been more interesting to me, if it depicted Sarah the maid and Kael’s story. I mean two villains working together sounds more nuanced and intriguing than this.
It’s nothing against Enrica but she is just another reason why the beautiful cutie airhead archetype can run its course in stories that are hinged on a huge miscommunication. It becomes incredibly unrealistic and laughable when the FL shows confidence, skill, intelligence and cunningness for other scenarios that require logic but can’t seem to connect the dots on the man she is marrying because the plot refuses for her to find out until the wedding.
That’s just ridiculous, I’m sorry, a lot of these shoujo ahistorical manhwas really do think their readers just shut their brain off while interacting with their stories so they will half ass the writing if they know all the facets of the story suffice for people. Sad. Anyway, I love Sarah she seemed really interesting and I think her being a dark mage would’ve tied nicely into Kael’s background of being used by one. A sort of enemies to lovers vibe. In fact, when the story first started I loved the relationship between her and Enrica. She could’ve been a lesbian with a one sided or mutual crush on her. Alas, we’re not reading her story though so we’ll never know.
But yeah that’s all I had to say. Will probably keep skimming but my critiques will definitely be a personal crutch to ranking this story any higher.
