Thank you. I believe the same and hope that we will see change. The last chapter implied that leewon understood that cesar doesn't know what love and a relationship is. Maybe he will show him what it means to him and they somehow both learn to love each other in this twisted relationship. And maybe just maybe cesarean will suffer a bit because of the things he did. At least that is my hope and opinion.
At this point even if his redemption arc is learning how to love and slowly softening I think he’s past the point of forgiveness. I’m gunna keep reading cuz I’m a glutton for punishment but I really don’t want them to end up together. But judging how this manhwa goes, they’re gunna go one of 2 routes:
1) Ceasar is somehow redeemed. I have no idea how but he’ll turn from a black flag to a pink flag and Leewon will be able to go thru a whole year without being kidnapped and raped for breathing in the wrong direction
2) Ceasar will kill Leewon
I don’t agree… leewon could 100% get himself out of this situation. He’s the son of the head of one of the most powerful mafia organizations in russia so just a word from him to his dad would be enough to never see caesar again. Yet time and time again he comes back… there is also a part of him that feels sympathy for Caesar, that this twisted way is the only way he knows how to show feelings, that no one thought him how to love.
I really hope he uses those resources at his disposal this time around. He didn’t back in chapter 40 when the first kidnapping happened cuz he hasn’t made contact yet and at this point I don’t think he will cuz he’s been Stockholm syndromed and love bombed too hard
I can understand why he feels sympathy for Ceasar and wants to try to fix/heal him but I really hope that doesn’t outweigh the dire fact that if he wants to live he needs to escape him. But this is a BL so this horrific abusive relationship will be glamorized and end with everyone going THEY FINALLY DID IT! COUPLES GOALS!!!
I really resent the “time and time again he comes back”. Cuz that’s what happens in abuse relationships. You get roped into this cycle which only actually ends when someone is able to escape or dies. Leewon is IN IT and it’s going to take a horrific situation to make him realize that he needs to escape. It’s never as easy as “just leave” especially when your partner has a track record of kidnapping, shooting, and raping you
Leewon literally only is sweet talking him so Ceasar will stop raping him but y’all acting like Leewon is complicit going freak 4 freak. Think about it tho. If Leewon tries to break up with him, run, change his identity, etc, Ceasar will catch him and make this chapter look like absolute fluff. He’s saying all this to SURVIVE but at this point there’s too much of him that’s been Stockholm’d that he will most likely stay with him even after all this
Their relationship is not cute or goals or I LOVE OUR BLACK FLAG SO MUCH. Y’all wanted to believe that Ceasar had changed? That deep down he really IS a good person? Well these last few chapters tell you everything you need to know. He is a monster incapable and unwilling to change. Leewon is the victim. And if this was real life Ceasar would have killed him by now
