There are too many instant-fall-in-love characters...

There's no development between Cedric and Dahlia, he just likes her. It's creepy. People don't work like that. Dahlia's feelings towards Cedric are normal honestly, but Cedric is creepy af. Also the situations are kind of forced between them and without reason.

The warp was changed, but why was Cedric there? Did the king assume? Yes, we know *why* he was there, but it seems sudden and Dahlia and Cedric aren't at a point where we, the audience, would find them pining over each other to be cute. Also if there are multiple MLs, then this kind of pining doesn't work anyway.

I don't know how to describe it, but since the MLs are "courting" Dahlia, any mutual pining ruins it all because the balance between Dahlia and the MLs is in imbalance and it's uncomfortable (especially at this early of a stage...)

S1 was good. Hikan and Dahlia's relationship was done well. The KING and Dahlia's relationship was ok too (honestly, he and Dahlia are funny hehe gives off grandpa vibes...).

Seriously, the King is amiable but he doesn't necessarily like Dahlia more or less, only seeing her as someone with an ability, someone who will help Hikan, and someone who may give his son some political advantage or smth not sure there. But as he moves on, he starts liking Dahlia as she is, asking for hugs frequently, pretended to be upset when she doesn't meet with him so on so on. He's like a friendly grandpa hehe... Honestly Hikan + Dahlia and King + Dahlia were awesome...

S2 was so awkward... Just... everyone else... (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜

The way how they axed the Duchess of Blueport sucked. Her relationship with Dahlia is probably one of the best and was likely the only one that didn't need explanation. I hope she comes with S3 or sooner. Please sooner.

Honestly, the only way for this to get any better is for the plot to focus on Aceras and Dahlia's relationship (not romantically... of course... ...) If they move away from romance and focus on Dahlia fixing the root of the problem, it'll be much more interesting and worthwhile. Focus on Aceras author, please... The other MLs are too shallow for this tale to seem meaningful.

Like uh: Aceras has uh bad background and becomes Pope- Give him Cedric's distaste towards people with a good reason and have him do horrible unforgiveable things like kill a bunch of people discreetly. Make the two sides go to war and make sure that Aceras is shown to be smart, like people-skills smart.

Then have this huge fight Aceras is almost winning and have him almost reach Dahlia. Make Dahlia say some cool things and have Hikan stab him in the back so he dies as he regrets it. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ Or less bloodshed but killing characters is awesome (≧∀≦) more uh feeling?

But seriously Aceras is 100x more interesting. Ooh if he and the King have an axe to grind into eachother's skulls it'll be better! Like a moral dilemma. Maybe the king killed Aceras' parents or whatever in an accident and have Aceras be taking revenge~ Or have him choose between 10000 people and Dahlia being taken. Hehehehehe. Or Hikan.

(▰˘◡˘▰) Gotta make gramps and the brother suffer for the plot to be cooler.

( ̄へ ̄)rn the MLs make me question the storyboard's IQ.

    If Aceras gets stabbed please make it Hikan who does it.

    i agree! it would be more interesting if they tone down on the romance a bit and focus on the holy kingdom vs i forgot the name of their country

    Right?? Idk why but a lot of korean manhwa focus too much on romance that they forget that they usually have pretty interesting setup. Like, they make an awesome premise and then abandon it for some guy...

    ( ̄へ ̄)I wish the authors would focus more on the fact that some of these people are at WAR instead of all the lovey dovey stuff.
