I mean, I agree, but damn wasn't it a sweet cringe? Cringe that just made your heart throb? It's the most wholesome cringe on the market!
I think what happened actually does make sense for the story and I can't easily think of another outcome that would've been better, but God, the secondhand emberassment hit me hard. Not even for Blondina, but imagine that you're a divine beast right? And your ruler, the person your people rely on with their future, goes to the event hosted by the people you hate, where the objective is something your people look down upon, to flirt with the enemy's daughter of all people.
The last chapter was little cringe ngl lmaoo "oh yeah se caught a divine beast >:3" and the fckn emperor like "my daughter has won the HUNTING competition, where you HUNT, while she was seated :)" and then everyone applauded thats so cringeeeeee
