100%agree with you. They have not, in the 118 chapters developed these 2 characters as a couple. I wanna drop but I'm trying to hang in there. There's od no communication between these two. It's frustrating because as you said riftan is working his butt of.to give maxi everything she wants buts all he gets in return is her foin something stupid without talking to him. Like he she jus told him about her upbringing, her worries, and doubts alot of things would make since for him and they could develop together.
I'm in agreement with you on Maxi being so naive.
The fact that these men are soldiers and have been fighting these creatures for years and are pros and have a hard time, she waltz around acting like this is a game while sneaking around and putting herself and others in danger.
She is an amateur mage and doesn't have the street smarts to even be in battle. I think the princess being a soldier really left an impression on her that she thinks she can automatically do it too.
She's very naive and I want her to win but between her being a damsel and a head of her house as it's mistress or sneaking into battle, I'd choose her being a damsel.
This story is very stressful and I'm with you on the romance not being what it needs to be.
Just want to give you insite we go into a lot of details as to why Riftan is I love with maxi how they met and riftans childhood leading to him becoming a knight in the novel and the author actually goes into detail about fight and world building but the manwha does not dwell on it as much
Yes! I agree. Sort of spoiler ish ahead. Maxi feels that her duty is to only serve her husband in bed and do light duties, whatever that is, where as riftan does all of the difficult shit. She feel like she is an object and is useless to riftan which is why she decided to go be a mage. She enjoys it and she feels like she can help riftan, which riftan won't like. Riftan don't know how to communicate due to his upbringing. He's use to handling everything on his own and doesn't want Maxi to feel burden about it bc he 'took her away from a good place to his place'. You will continue to see that riftan will continously shut Maxi down. That is the main first step they will overcome as a couple. This issue will remain until a bit after maxi's return. Yes, she shouldn't have gotten to this war but I assure you, it's it's good thing she did got involved.... even tho she sacrificed so much. We also gotta consider tthat in this is a different time era that involves monsters and magic. The people were desperate for helpers and she managed to sneak in bc who sneak into war? Plus, unfortunately for Maxi, she has to start somewhere to get the experience. This experience will help her later. The manhwa don't really do well sometimes but the novel did better . And she won't tell riftan anything bc her shitty father pounded the idea that she is useless and no one wants her if they find out how useless she is, which she ain't useless. But trust, when riftan finds out, ITS GONNA BE AMAZING.
Your comment made my day fr
Yw, dear.
Not to mention she's too sheltered and privileged she thinks riftan is gonna die or fall in love w the princess but she doesn't realize NO ONE WANTS TO GO TO WAR. Her constantly putting herself in danger why?? She has a responsibility as a duchess (?) riftan wanted her to be safe bc he is out here fighting actual monsters and she can barely start a fire. She could've stayed in the nunnery and helped the people suffering he repercussions of the war currently going on instead of willy nilly going into war voluntarily no one WANTS to participate it is actually frustrating me. Don't misunderstand me I love maxi but she's not being realistic and she's putting herself in danger for a silly reason
Totally agree! Maxi needs to most definitely go to her fiefdom and take care of the land that she and her husband attends to. She's being neglectful and immature. She is most likely going to put herself into a tough situation and make riftan have to bail her out due to her naivete.
No offense to nobody but i binged this and wtf... straight romance is not my thing since ages ago but i decided to try again because i liked the art... im dissapointed. Im not sure how it is portrayed in the novel but after binging the whole manhwa im left with the feeling that maxi and riftan are just strangers to each other, literally maxi has spent more time with everyone except with her husband, homegirl is even close friends with some knights and knows more about them than her own man, all they do is have sex and don't even discuss important things in deepth at all... damn i also guessed that riftan has been infatuated with her since a young age from seeing her while visiting her castle but not even that is properly explained and portrayed at all, leaving the reader with the question of why does he seem to be in love with her when we don't know anything in deepth about him, his past and his connection with her properly. Also i understand that the author wants to portray some sort of brave but insecure woman overcoming her difficulties on the name of feminism but as a feminist myself homegirl maxi comes as a naive child, emotionally inmature and even reckless at times like what you mean you are going to the battlefield on incognito?? I think the author lacks a lot of knowledge on warfare and how things would work in the universe she pictures. And feel bad for riftan breaking his ass to give maxi a good and safe life while she doesn't give a damn and keeps putting herself on unnecessary danger, i understand she wants to do things for herself but this is not it. Im gonna keep up with the updates because i want to know more about their romantic relationship and see where this is going but i feel i wasted hours of my time with this.
