I'm not at all saying you're wrong, and the gambling side plot bored me to absolute tears, but I love this setting and these characters SO much that I don't even care. It just feels like playing Skyrim to me. I had two copies (hubby and I fought over who could play when and we had two tvs and Playstation 3's soooo...) and hundreds of hours of/on that game, and I still never beat the storyline lol. Sometimes I love a world so much, I can't help but revel in everything it has to offer.

Ok I had to pull up the novel to figure out where we are rn. Here are some stats:
Toal number of chapters: Around 200
Ch 84: Where Debora makes the deal with Thierry regarding helping them with funds in exchange for the egg. That's a little before where the manhwa is right now.
Ch 109: That's where I would say things start getting interesting and moving towards starting the main plot. Also in that chapter, Isidore starts realizing that his interest in Deborah may be more than platonic.
Sooooo the manhwa isn't even halfway through the story. And it'll likely be another 10-20 manhwa chapters before things start getting good and the plot starts taking shape.
Honestly, this manhwa was one of my favorites in the beginning. It had so much potential but now it feels like there’s only side quests. 75 chapters and no romance, nothing actually meaningful for the plot like her brother, the og fl or anything.
I liked how different this story was but after so much time i actually miss some clichés here
