So I think what we have here is a very annoying miscommunication setup… if I’m reading this right, the game has ended. ML is putting up boundaries because he genuinely thinks MC has tapped out. MC brought him another named person, and ML thought ‘because they’re fated, shouldn’t MC fight against this?’ ML was initially testing this fated lovers thing out, but for him, it fizzled to an end because MC didn’t react as expected or he thinks MC set this up in the first place (makes sense why he said ‘what a pointless ending’). SO HERE, his stupid experiment probably ended.
ML will likely reveal everything to MC next, and MC will be pissed af because why for no reason was he put through shit emotional roller coaster - all this for an experiment? Extra pissed if Ryu actually thinks he was working with the scammer (girl likely had the name tattooed) Don’t forget that one of ML’s keywords when this manhwa started was ‘#후회공 / regret’ so I think this will probably kick off a chasing arc where ML's feelings for MC will be explored for the first time. As the poster below me said, we had this for MC, but none for ML’s side.
I actually believe THIS IS THE REAL RYU, one who’s not afraid to cut people off. He’s not the Prince Charming people claimed him to be nor did he profess to be one, which is why he doesn’t actually have close friends in the first place.Ngl I desperately need them to make out and fuck, but Ryu needs to BE HUMBLED and grovel first before they do.
