I get you... I already hate to bits the step/adopted sibling to ML trope... and this is worse cuz she looks like a 12yo and he like a 25+ full adult...
The only saving point is that they explained from the beginning that the "adopted children" are taken in as possible future spouses or aides or something and not as literal adopted family members. But I do wish they made this a focal point cuz sometimes reading it I forget, get mad and remember again...
But yeah... at this point I really dislike him being the ml too... I'd rather this be a wholesome family comic than a romance tbh...
Hesaros is older than even their ancestors.
But I get what you mean about the eldest. I was questioning on how old they all are. Though it won't be much of a problem if FL finally grew up.
I thought Michael would be a much better ml. He was always reacting to Lorena’s manipulation, but not actively trying to hurt her otherwise. Ariel’s behavior was a lot worse. This Michael is both kind and considerate (and the same age)
He actively hurt MC with his words on the first Timeline. Always wanting the MC to leave their house and saying awful things to her. The duke and ML just acts cold and indifferent. MC and ML's age gap aint that big as well.
I was literally giggling and kicking my feet because of how wholesome the manwha was getting but they just had to make the eldest brother the ML huh? I was hoping Hesaros or even that kid in the orphanage to be the ML but i guess not.. Man, what a way to destroy an enjoyable manwha. Such a shame, an utter shame.
