The empress would have taken her as an enemy anyway so why bother being stupid Infront of her. ??
And I think she was reincarnated after investing in that mine or it will be obvious that she will try to stop it
Making enemies ?? Is standing for her family honor considered bad ?!
If she doesn’t do that even the maid will ridcule her and her family
I think she is smart and confident of her work that she spoke with this confidence and she will prove her ability later with her work
No need to act stupid and ignorant just to avoid a conflict that was obviously gonna happen anyway
No.. but her family name wasn't even known to the empress? she really thought that the emperor grew naive by hiring her, as in she really thought of her as no threat... if you read the chapter, it's only after she retaliated that the empress repeated her name so she can remember it later on when she seeks revange on her, as for the maids... it's most likely she would never see them again?! lmao, point here is, if she was smart, she could've gotten away with it without making an enemy out of anyone, as for the mine thing, you get reincarnated and YOU STILL HAVE THE BOOK! why the fuck would you only check you and your family's destiny right after you guys are in trouble... that's something she should've known the moment she knew she was reincarnated (she claimed she was just an extra that has nothing to do with the plot, but the story clearly mentions that she gets killed because the emperor found her brother to be incompetent...) that's a plot hole imo, the Mine thing was the source of all problems to her family, she should've known that already and put a stop to it... I don't see her acts as heroic, I see a dumb character who doesn't know how to act, and doesn't know how to use her tools to find information she needs to survive (aka the book novel that contains all the details that she still has), it's still a good story to me, but I just had to point out things I found to be stupid.
I agree, but this is not the modern times where everyone is supposed to be equal, this is supposed to be an empire in the ancient times, and the number one woman in an empire is the empress, so there's a limit to what you can say to her without risking being beheaded, even if it's not fair to you or you find it offensive, you can not go to an empress and tell her how she didn't raise the emperor with love even if that were to be true, especially if you don't hold no relations to the imperial family and what's worse the emperor himself is a trayant, so there's no guarantee he will save your ass when you offend the imperial family ... so the FL is literally taking a huge risk talking back when she's there to save herself from death to begin with..
yeah i kinda get what you mean, i just tend not to think too much when reading isekai romance, if the art is pretty and the characters are hot and i don't feel much second hand embarrassment it's good. i read parts of the novel so i might be prejudiced bc i really liked her character, but i don't understand what you meant by hero complex. do u mean something like how she unnecessarily steps up to save others? it kinda felt like "i volunteer as tribute" to me, idk i really liked reading the hunger games when i was younger.
What I mean about it is her having to do unnecessary things to prove that "she's brave", you know how some people love to speak up just to prove that they are all that and to be seen as heroes without them calculating the results of their actions or the fact that they could be bringing bunch of other people who are related to them down because they don't know when to zip it, it's kind of like that , cause realistically what would and should've happened is that she gets arrested for offending the royal family, and the emperor wouldn't give a fuck if she gets punished or executed or whatever, because he's a trayant and he hates people who are incompetent and don't know their place, or at least that how he was described, so in all honesty there's no reason for him to get out of his way and personalty protect a "trainee" who unknowingly added the fuel to the fight between him and the empress and made things even more complicated for him... but it's all thanks to "plot armor" that she gets to survive and be seen in a positive light lol.
No but honestly why the hell would you speak to the empress that way? lmao, talking about how she didn't raise the emperor with love or whatever.. what's that got to do with you? it's not your position to judge that, and even if she talks shit about your family, you let it enter one ear and get out of the other, it's no use feeling offended and being under her radar! a good secretary would know when to let things go and not fight back to not cause issues to their employer/boss... Also aren't you there to avoid being killed to begin with??! Like Girl, it's only your first day there and you're already involved in mess... if you wanna retaliate and protect your family's honor, then you give yourself some time and you prove it through hard work and good result! no use making ennemies that could potentially hurt you.... Another thing I want to point out, is the fact that she let her family invest in a mine that she knew would bring issues to them? and is actually the source of why her family is gonna be killed? because her brother was bothered by it and couldn't focus on his secretary duties... so this entire thing could've been avoided if she convinced her family not to invest basically.. yeah the FL is DUMB!
