The manga is based on a novel of the same name. You can read in korean on Kakaeo ( https://page.kakao.com/home/52153404) but you have to buy it.

THE ML
As he begins falling in love with Evie he starts to have dreams about the original timeline. At first it's just dreams of the first time he saw Evie and having tea with her in the garden, but then he sees himself leaving to go and serve Rosie and he panics. He starts getting really insecure and asking if Evie would throw him away. Evie reasures him that unless he wanted to leave her, she'd never force him to leave her side. However as the dreams continue, Michael sees the things he did in the first timeline like seducing Rosie so that she would be obsessed with him and starting the war. He hates the version of himself he sees in his dream and starts developing a self hatred.
Eventually all his memories come back and he talks to Evie, apologizing for what happened in the first timeline. Evie also apologizes to him as well, saying that even though she claimed to value homunculus rights, she never actually DID anything to help them and her inaction is what forced his hand. The two of them reaffirm their relationship.
They start sleeping together pretty early on. The ML thinks that the FL really lives up to the imperial family's reputation of having a high sex drive. (Apparrently he has to take stamina potions just to keep up with her XD). Like in the first timeline, the ML awakens his powers as King of the Homunculus. There was one incident where Betty tried to order the Homuculus to attacked the ML and they all refused because his ability to control them even trumps the imperial family. His ability becomes widely known and the Emperor wants to have him destroyed. However the ML says that the emperor doesn't have to worry because he loves Evie and her every wish is the same as a command to him (by this point, the Emperor has already made Evie the Crown Princess).
The FL & ML have three children; a daughter who becomes heir to the throne and twin sons. Their daughter inherits both her mother's strong alchemy skills and her father's ability to control homunculi.
ALVEN
Becomes the FL & ML's number one supporter and ally. Becomes best friends with the ML and even refers to him as his brother. Is super super loyal and extremely competent. At the end of the novel he becomes the Prime Minister. He falls in love with the FL's maid and after pursuing her for several years, she finally marries him. Their daughter marries one of the FL & ML's sons.
SYLVESTIAN
Is in love with Evie, but never confesses because the ML is his best friend. Although he's Rosie's knight he frequently helps out the FL & ML and vice versa. There's one incident where Rosie gets poisoned and is ends up in a coma. Sylvestian is in pain since when their owner is danger the knight suffers because of the link. So the ML forcibly severs the imprint between Rosie and Sylvestian and the FL makes Sylvestian her knight in order to protect him.
Towards the end of the story the homunculus are no longer treated as slaves and tools and many of them are given noble titles. Sylvestian is made a Duke, but leadership doesn't really suit him so he spends most of his time travelling and leaves the management of his dukedom to his staff.
ROSIE
Also starts remembering the original timeline. After all her memories return, she decides that she doesn't want to die and so sides with the FL. She also hates Michael, because of how he seduced and used her in the original timeline and played off her inferiority complex (because of her weak alchemical power). She helps the FL several times. There's one incident where Betty tries to frame the FL for leaking information about the imperial family. The emperor is furious with the FL, but then Rosie steps forward and takes the blame instead.
The FL finds out that Rosie knows about the ML being King of Homunculus and is still wary of her, so she imprints Rosie. Rosie knows what she's doing, but accepts it if it will allow the FL to trust her. FL decides to treat Rosie as a sister from then on, since it's unfair if she and Michael get a second chance to right their wrongs, but Rosie doesn't.
Because of the imprint, Rosie now super adores the FL to the point where there are rumors in the court of forbidden love between the sisters. The FL sweat drops when she hears the rumors, but Rosie is delighted. Later on the FL and ML have a daughter whom Rosie also adores and who in tern refers to her Aunt Rosie as her third favorite person (after her parents).
Rosie also seems to develop a good relationship with Sylvestian. During the novel's big final battle Sylvestian gets badly injured and she stays by his side helping to nurse him. She also apologizes to him. Later on, after Evie is Empress and Sylvestian is a wandering Duke, they meet during a festival in the capital and Rosie asks him to escort her to the ball happening in the palace the next day.
