I think i remember reading that it's also not like we'll suddenly have an active romance arc, rather than just the two interacting here and there and y'know... it's not gonna be young adult romance, but more like old people romance? Which honestly sounds lovely. (At least this is how I've understood it reading the comments) I can't wait to see them be old people together
Tbh I could be wrong, but I have a vague memory that someone in some comments at some point had mentioned the northern sea ice palace. I got reminded of it seeing it mentioned in the latest chapter.
It could be we get to see her in this next arc, or the one after? Maybe, who knows. Would love if any novel readers could help.
In your own estimation, when do you guys think the female lead will appear? Around what chapter base on the pacing of the manhwa?
