I hate Helena. Honestly she has not done anything but that's it, she hasn't done anything...

I HIGHLY doubt that she truly loves the cp

Crown prince doesn't love her hes just intrigued by her and likes that she has no power and he feels superior that's why he hates the FL hes doing all this because of her like she pointed out in the latest chapters. She has no power or influence over him and cant stop him she understands this perfectly and for her who is a fallen Nobel basically a commoner sacrificing her safety for a pampered brat who got everything since birth (from her point of view) is rather stupid if you ask me. I like her character because it shows us second POV of their situation

Also a possibility bust considering how close they are, there should be at least another form of love for her to be blinded.

correct him?!! how?!! why the fuck you think he cares what she thinks or feel?! are you blind to how he uses his power to order her around without giving a damn or just living in denial for victim-blaming?!
I don't really care you missing the point that she is still a victim in a position she can't do anything against asshole crown prince!
and she actually much more interesting than some boring nice character out there that I know, she has a character, she has things she wants to do and she tries and works even as a servant it is still a job! so fuck off

Helena DOESN'T actually LIKE or LOVE the cp. That bish ( CP) is just going around abusing authority as well as his mother (the Queen). If you've read Chap. 24, there is an explanation for why she doesn't refuse meeting with the Queen or the Crown Prince rather than doing her job. She is ignored by her fellow maids because she happens to be the CP's "childhood friend" and a fallen noble. And what? correct the crown prince on his behavior? No, that guy has no symptoms of changing his behavior, he thinks he is great just because he has the authority in his hands and is gonna be the next king. And you think a bish who scolds the head maid just because of giving HELENA maid work and not meeting him is gonna have a personality development? I think no. AND THAT GUY IS NOT A FUCKING CHILD. He should know what's wrong and right and not act based on his feelings. HELENA IS NOT THE LEAST BIT NAIVE she just pretends so (again in chap 24). She cannot do anything because she doesn't have the power neither status and girl is just tryna survive amidst all of this. AND HELENA WAS NEVER A SHELTERED CHILD. Her mother tried to kill her several and has even canned her. GIRL JUST WANTED TO BE ACCEPTED AS SHE IS. She could neither make friends because of that CP bish (Chap. 25 page 5 look how happy she seemed when she got invited to tea party with her friends), and neither was her mother nice to her. And just when she finally made friends they turned out to be infatuated with her cuz "SHE IS SO DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER GIRLS WHO FLAUNTS THEIR MONEY AND STATUS LIKE ERIS" (GGOOODD I JUST HATE GUYS WHO THINK LIKE THIS). Just like Eris, she was also suffering. And there is no way on earth she is hypocrite. BRUH SHE GENUINELY APOLOGIZED FOR WEARING THE SAME CLOTHES AS ERIS AND I think this was a scheme by the CP to humiliate Eris cuz there is no way on how Helena would know what Eris was going to wear. And Helena had to wear those clothes because she couldn't refuse CP. And the world she is living in is where women are reduced to just objects, they can't express what they are feeling, and their duty should be to serve men and sit still and look pretty.
Moreover even if she defends the MC against the guys it's most definitely gonna backfire, cuz they gonna think that the MC is blackmailing her or smthg and they will do worse things to her.

Sadly, that's the real situations of women back then. That is why this is closer to reality in regards with how women get treated before. I also think that is how the author wants to appeal to the public. Maybe, show how it was before. Both Eris and Helena are women who are treated as a doll. Stay there, sit there, give me son, be pretty. Notice how Eris could speak up to the crown prince but can't to the emperor. She just bowed her head when the emperor told her not to be jealous. That's outright disrespect for Eris. But she remained silent. That's it is for Helena. But because she's in the lowest class, well she could only bow her head and either apologize or just shut up to everyone.

I 100% agree you basically summed up everything that was needed to be said

Nope I don't think she likes him the least bit even as a person. If you see, most if the time Helena just goes along with the cp's whimsicals. She neither has a say nor does the cp asks her opinion. I think she just finds the cp as a guy with authority but no personality.

From what I read, her "things she wants to do" isn't highlighted enough. Yes, she might be a victim, but again it doesn't justify her being blind. She has enough authority to change things the way it is since she can't have her job in the first place without skills. All I'm seeing as a character is someone naive and a pushover which doesn't suit her job at all. If she also wants to do her job, she won't be acting that close to the prince despite his pushing. She has a boring character and doesn't add anything to the story as of now.

Yes correct him, but like I said failing to do so. I dont get how every reply after this thinks that I think she would be successful on doing so. I'm complaining of the lack of character she has. I'm suggesting this changes in order to highlight the different mindset the protagonist has. Like I said the blonde girl is not adding anything in the story despite being talked about a lot. This still could have been a story without her since the prince is acting like that. Defending the protagonist that leads to backfiring is exactly why she should do it, BECAUSE IT ADDS STORY. I'm not criticizing the characters as humans, I'm criticizing them as characters thats suppose to add a story in the book. Despite all her "struggle" she isn't the main so all of that does not affect the story as much. Her wearing the clothes is like what I said to her being blind, she can still do that for all I care, I DIDNT COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT SCENE, In fact it's a good scene but it would be better if that "oppression" of woman is shown because it would highlight the difference of this world vs the protagonist world. Like I said, I'm not complaining her as a person, I'm complaining about her as a character in the book.

Again her feeling that doesn't add anything to her character. It leads to more reason on why she's useless in this story.

That's a nice interpretation!

I think, her characters is a good contrast to the Eris. With how the story is progressing, I think the author wants to emphasize what women can do. It's women power fighting shitty men and society.

Helena, a women born and raised from that timeline. A woman, who despite being a fallen noble have "capable connection" but with real lowest class situation. I think her behavior now suits her background and situation. Her character is supposed to be helpless like how shitty the male leads are.

Eris, a woman who transmigrated from modern world, clearly knows what her rights are supposed to be, "despite" being a woman in that era. She's bound to be different to Helena in that part because she came from the modern world. She saw with her own eyes that woman can do fantastic even without men. She's born where women have rights and everyone acknowledges those rights. Plus, she's an independent working woman in her world. Of course, she won't take shit from bastards who only knows how to whine like a useless thing they are. (Those 3 are undeniably useless pricks)

It kinda makes sense why Helena can't speak up as you expect her to be because I bet she never saw a woman (or anyone) speaking up to anyone with higher authority than them. Thou, based on the spoiler, she'll soon get better after being more involved with Eris (in a way different than how it is now).


Environment is always a big factor to one's behavior and character. That's why I think, the characters of 2 women are well-written. The magic, witches and transmigration are not real but the characters behavior are closer to reality during those era. (I'm not saying all woman are helpless during those time, she's just one of those)

The author didn't want the 2 main females hating each other. She/he wants them to realize helping each other and hating mls together would be a greater help. (Yes, let's all hate those 3)

All of that is what makes this story different from any transmigration story. The helpless og fl. The shitty mls (except anakin), and a determined fl. All of it adds to the story.

Thank you

Sorry. A lot of typo error.

again I don't think they need to be "highlighted" just for you! it is enough since she isn't the main character. blind about what?!!! about she has no power in this and she can't say no to anything cause he is a prince with power?!! ok ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I think you the one who blind to the society she is in.
dude what authority?!!! what the fuck are you talking about?!!! she has zero authority here!! she is a fucking commoner! if she go against the fucking prince they can kill her for treason!
SHE CAN'T CHANGE SHIT!!! again the prince doesn't give a damn about what she thinks or feel, she is just a tool to him to feel good and that's it!
the fact you even dare to say she can change something in a situation she can't change anything and have zero control or power over is called VICTIM BLAMING!
she didn't act close to the prince, THE PRINCE was the one who forces her to be with him at all the time without asking her!!
you do the same as people blaming rape victims that their boss rapes them - they could have to do something different if they didn't want to be rape or be fired. and this case dies for treason. how dare they stay there cause they want to work!!
STOP VICTIM BLAMING!! it disgusting!

I'm not forcing them to change just for me. I'm not even blaming her for her actions. I'm simply saying, again as A CHARACTER SHE IS BORING. how the hell did that message didnt show up. I'm simply making a criticism on how I interpreted where the story is going. There was a reply above voicing their interpretation on how this two characters contrast each other as woman in this society, they respectfully commented their interpretation that contrast mine without being rude. I even replied that it was a nice interpretation. It really hurts that your assuming me as someone that blames a victim even going to the extent as comparing it to rape. I dont know how my words is getting so twisted when I repeated several times that IM NOT BLAMING HER AS A HUMAN BUT AS AN IMPORTANT CHARACTER IN A BOOK. I didnt even glorify that the prince's action is justified. She has authority because she is close to the prince, they have been childhood friends for a long time yet she can't see how much he adores her and how she could use that to voice her opinion. Though if she does she's it she stays silent due to her place in society but again that doesn't justify how she's a bystander and in my eyes, a boring character. Its exactly why I'm saying she's naive because as someone who got a job in the palace, you gotta have at least enough intelligence to notice that yet she's not getting it or is silence about it. Which from the chapters we've seen so far, doesn't create the storyline im picturing this story would go to. I can completely see that the prince is shit, I dont get why you think I'm siding with him.

thanks for being the few who's responding respectfully despite our differences in our interpretation. I thought I had enough English vocabulary in order to voice my opinion but it seems like a lot of people are missing my criticism.

here what you said in your comment - "Yes, she might be a victim, but again it doesn't justify her being blind. She has enough authority to change things the way it is since she can't have her job in the first place without skills. All I'm seeing as a character is someone naive and a pushover which doesn't suit her job"

and here what I said in my comment - "about she has no power in this and she can't say no to anything cause he is a prince with power?!! ok ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I think you the one who blind to the society she is in. dude what authority?!!! what the fuck are you talking about?!!! she has zero authority here!! she is a fucking commoner! if she go against the fucking prince they can kill her for treason! SHE CAN'T CHANGE SHIT!!! again the prince doesn't give a damn about what she thinks or feel, she is just a tool to him to feel good and that's it!"

you said she can change things and that she has enough authority while ignoring the fact she is a commoner! commenters have no power in this society and he is the fucking crown prince! and she does not need to prove anything to be important in this story! she add enough to the story as a character by giving a variety of different women that act differently to things and there is nothing wrong with that.

the fact is you ignore that the prince uses her as a tool, does not give a damn about her feelings as a human being, and uses his power to control her KNOWING he can is already too much for me to say anything! I really don't get how you think she can, by any means, change or do anything to change this man that uses her as a tool and won't listen to a thing she said, despite the story prove to us time and time again he DOES NOT give a damn about her and only think about himself! it just feels like you support him in a way cause you say she can change him, despite she CAN'T! she in a position she can't even say no to things she does not want to do when he order her around.

Dude wth are you on about. I didnt ignore that prince's power on her. IM NOT ASKING HER TO CHANGE THE PRINCE, I'm asking her to DO SOMETHING, I even said about her FAILING TO DO SO and making things worse. ?@?#&×??? Like I said from what (I) read she is not adding anything to the story. from what (I) interpreted she is not interesting enough as a important character. How the hell are you twisting my words. I have said so many times that (I) judge the people in this book as CHARACTERS not HUMANS. I have said I get how the prince has the power and how he's shit. But again that doesn't justify her being a boring character in (MY) interpretation of how the story is going. Yes she has enough authority like I said and I quote myself "She has authority because she is close to the prince, they have been childhood friends for a long time yet she can't see how much he adores her and how she could use that to voice her opinion. Though if she does she's it she stays silent due to her place in society but again that doesn't justify how she's a bystander and in my eyes, a boring character. Its exactly why I'm saying she's naive because as someone who got a job in the palace, you gotta have at least enough intelligence to notice that yet she's not getting it or is silence about it. Which from the chapters we've seen so far, doesn't create the storyline im picturing this story would go to" dude did you even read my reply. Did you even address how you assumed I'm victim blaming and even going as far as comparing it to blaming those who get rape. I dont know why you're trying to make is seem like my words are targeted to make the blonde girl the bad guy when I'm clearly not doing it. She is a bystander, the prince is a manipulator, fucking characters has flaws and unfortunately hers is not good enough for me to think her character is useful. Yes you can have your opinion that she adds things to the story, I'm not restricting you to do but that doesn't give you a right to bring my opinion down as well as assuming that I'm someone who doesn't have morals and victim blaming. Your coming of really as if you're opinion on how the story goes is the only thing correct. The things I have been replying to people is to explain how I think certain things should be change, how the words you twisted isn't what i implied and my reasoning for it and by the way you guys are replying (insulting me, bringing my opinion down) I've been fucking respectful.
