Ch 66

Duke of sagna = her magic teacher from the 1st timeline.
In this time line however as we can see thanks to the different choices of her mother Duke of sagna = her dad.
Since she has kept her memories intact after being reborn as her other's daughter in this 2nd timeline It's hard for her to cope with all the memories and emotional baggage... So here she was writing a letter to her teacher (current timeline dad) cause after spending 2 timelines with him she finally realized his past teachings but since he does not "exist" in this timeline thus she cannot express her feelings of gratitude to him she wrote this letter instead!

Awwww that sad

My brain was overclocking when I first read it, fr.

But she did mention denying his words for "two whole lifetimes after" he said them to her. That threw me off for the rest of the chapter. So I was like, 'how many timelines are there? Which him is she writing to?'

So there's Duke Sagna (the timeline before he becomes her teacher, where he gave her the advice about Magic power not being more important than magic affinity), Teacher 1 (where she was "stuck uselessly on the first floor"), Teacher 2 (where she made it to the top?), and then Dad. Or maybe Teacher was just one life and not two separate ones?

** I'm thinking she was writing to Duke Schderl, about things involving Teacher Schderl (1 & 2?), because she said "you probably don't know who I am" meaning they weren't acquainted that life, hence why she doesn't refer to him as Teacher, but as Duke. See how confusing this is??
She refers to them differently. She said Duke, Teacher, and Dad in that chapter, and they're not interchangeable (bc diff timelines). But THEN AGAIN, she starts the letter as "Master Sagna" which could be like shifu, sensei, teacher.......... So I wondered if the novel says something about more lives.

It may just all be a translation thing. Like my brain is hurting again trying to type it up lol.
