The Double-Standards.....

I know everyone has the right to their own opinions but I feel that some of the readers are hating on other characters, particularly the male characters for either small or unfair reasons. In most stories revolving around 'strong FLs', the male characters are either belittling her or praising her for every little step and supporting her unconditionally regardless of their own needs because she is so flawless and perfect.

This story isn't like that and I LOVE IT for doing that. I know we all want Sienna to be Emperor but that doesn't mean every other character should just roll over for her. Yes, Kuhn supports Dian but he's made a deal long before he met Sienna. Yes, he keeps secrets but he's never tried to take advantage of her for the knowledge she doesn't know and makes it clear when he can't reveal information.

I really like Kuhn because from the first small interaction with Sienna he acknowledges her capability and potential to be a great Emperor.

Dian also recognizes this. (I find it funny how she's always keeping him on his toes. Not even as rivals but just when they are talking and then she does something he never expects.) But I don't agree with the people that say that she is obviously better to would be if not for her Mom.

Dian has been through a lot especially because of the Red King and he deserves to be Emperor just as much as Sienna. He worked his ass off for this. I don't know why we can't be proud of what great leaders they both are and enjoy the rivalry. Where they are not only bringing out the best in each other but also learning from each other. I really loved Sienna's train of thought in the last chapter, because whether she lost or won, she knew that the victor would not have gotten it from schemes but because of their own hard work.

Smart doesn't even begin to define Sienna. Sienna knows it. Kuhn knows it. Dian knows it. Her retainer knows it. Everyone that matters knows it. And best thing shes not the only badass in the story.

Maybe I got a little off track but I don't know if this is 'feminism' leaking into the comments or just bias for the main character. This isn't the story where the FL goes and wipes out every problem perfectly. I said this before but you don't expect Sienna to throw away her dreams for love or guilt for her brother so why would you expect Kuhn and Dian to do the same.

Plus, isn't it about time we got a rival that doesn't hate the MC for no given reason and has competence (If you read enough of these stories you know what I'm talking about ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

    Agree.

    Would like to add that Sienna looks miserable in her dreams. Sure she can change some stuff and maybe she might be happier being the Emperor, but is not a guarantee.

    I don't mind if she rly ends up being the Emperor without Dian dying, but the end game I want is her with Khun so she can learn more about the world and not stay there where backstabers and even her family are trash. And I think Dian is gonna be a good Emperor cause he is not pursuing the title with bad intentions.

    totally agree with you. I think both of them will be a great and amazing Emperor in the future. Sienna and Dian both are amazing and good leaders with their own way of doing things so I don't mind who win. but I do want Sienna to be happy in the end and find a lot of people that care about who she is has a person and not her tittle. also I hope she won't end up alone and miserable like she did in the future.
    the only character I hate is her father, has a ruler he is great and all but has a parent and father figure he is shitty. I hope Sienna will be a better parent to her future children then her shitty father was to her.
