Bit of a waste for her to pair up with a simpleton

Chapter 19 so far;

Bit of a waste for her to pair up with a simpleton, how much depth could a relationship have with that amount of imbalance / disparity? Eh, “bit of a waste” being a severe understatement.

Also, she’s seen all sorts of people in her past life and new life (the basic fact that people are inherently selfish, genuine altruism is non-existent), I doubt she’d be shy / blushing over the actions of a 1-dimensional shallow / naïve, emotionally immature, idealist fellow who’s still viewing the world behind a rose tint in simplified terms.

Which –I suspect– would be akin to an adult falling for a child; superficial / disingenuous unless they were on the same pace / wavelength (unrealistic). That’s just silly, contradicts her character profile (astute, rational, methodical, matured through experience 28+15 years?).

“As long as they’re happy”, right? Lol yeah, ok, fine. Still a waste though.

She’s probably better off with someone like Owen since he’d be the sort of person to complete the 2nd half of her sentence; at least equipped with the capacity to truly understand her on a much deeper connection. Just imagine.. the 2 of them playing chess, or escape room. Just imagine… the banter between the 2.

Can’t see how her relationship with grand duke rexid could be anything other than fleeting, surface level impulse. Friends maybe, but it’s unrealistic for someone like her to be attracted to someone like him ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

He’s so tactless, it’s not even cute lol unsuitable to be in a position of power. Competent Owen’s probably the one keeping everything running smoothly; Shadow proxy grand duke.

Chapter 24—duke’s a genuine idiot and it’s not even endearing kingdom’s doomed if somebody like that takes reign. Poor thing, Owen’s doing all the work . Best thing the duke can do is be the sword of a worthy ruler. And competent Owen’s better off being the leader of information guild or assassin guild.

Chapter 39—it’s painful watching smart characters paired with idiots. As far as I can tell, the attraction is based on lust. The chemistry is so much better between Owen and Rosica

ML’s worse than the MCs in shōnen. Somebody THAT idiotic at 25 years old shouldn’t be in a position of power / influence.

I can’t continue. Have fun, everyone. Lol
