When I discovered this story, I was very thrilled to see a badass MC in a Royal Villainess story trope. But then I realized that Scarlet despite her power is still very inferior and powerless to the sadistic ML prince! I mean for god sake why isn't she hitting him at all? He keeps teasing her for his own amusement. And to make it worse, he is shown having no flaws or weaknesses - only that he is very bored.
Crown prince Cecil from Jishou Akuyaku Reijou na Konyakusha no Kansatsu Kiroku is similar but he is much more funnier, sympathetic, redeemable and you can see that he is not invulnerable. Julius Von Palistan is an entitled asshole towards Scarlet.
I believe, Rachel from The Villainess' Slow Prison Life Began With Her Broken Engagement is able to harm and anger Prince Julius.
Wow...I 100% agree. They’re really not “strong female leads” if some boring ass “perfect and flawless” male lead is enough to make them dumb in a second.
Scarlet really had potentials but in the end the author had to make the prince/ML her kryptonite.
It’s probably because she can’t hit royalty, she did hit royalty at the ball but since the ML is an ally she probs can’t
Plot Amour
omygod shoutout to prince cecil, i totally agree
If I were able to create my fictionous characters and worldbuilding, wouldn't it make ME the father/mother/parent of all these figures that came to life?
They are practically my children.
The myth of pygmalion is also about an artist who falls in love with his own creation that he made with his own hands.
So technically she the sculpture is his daughter.... That is so wrong and weird.
