This just got updated

PLEASE PLEASE I BEG YOU SPOIL ME WHY IS HE LİKE THAT İN THE 1ST LIFE !?!?!?!??!?!!??!??!!!!!!
（/TДT)/

sorry I wanted to explain it in detail so it got too long read at your own risk.

remember in the current timeline when Athy got sick and was sleeping and Claude was quietly debating wether to kill her or not. He mentioned; I think this is how it goes---"A little more and I would've forgotten you already"---- he was pertaining to everything about Diana(including Athy) he wants to forget bc he can't live with the memory while Diana is already gone. So as we see he did not forget, why? Remember Athy encountering Claude in the emperor's palace EARLIER than the First Timeline (Athy was supposed to meet Claude on her 7th? Birthday if I still remember correctly) but they met earlier than that----. This brings us back to the past, as we all know -----Claude used black magic----- why? He used it to erase all memories of Diana so he could not remember her and their offspring. BUT it takes 7 Years for it to be complete (the black magic) so in the first timeline Claude and Athy met exactly on? or after? the Black magic is complete so when they met he doesn't know Athy AT ALL.
BUT in their current life Athy is different than her previous lives she's not timid or a goody two shoes anymore; instead she ended up not staying put in the Ruby Palace and ended up wandering outside the Emperor's Palace where she met Claude BEFORE the Black Magic took effect, hence Claude ended up not erasing his memories that's why everything that happened in the current timeline was so different; AND that brings us again back to when Athy was sleeping and Claude muttering to himself ----" A little more and I would've forgotten you already "----


Since Claude has trust issues, cold, and a ruthless person, it takes a lot to be on his good side. Diana is an exception coz he loved her, now that the only thing that gives light on his dark life has died he could not help hating Athy but could not bring himself to kill her (not because she acted endearing, I actually think that Claude knows about Athy acting cute or playing dumdum) as we all noticed everytime he tried ---he already failed to kill her the first time, in the Ruby Palace---. He did not explain why but we all have guesses, I just hope there would be a Claude thinking aloud moment whe we could hear about his thoughts on Athy.

sorry about the length of my explanation I hope this clears the mystery for you
(=・ω・=)

Yes I too had this same theory I'm surprised to see that you thought the same about the fact that Claude tried black magic to erase Diana's memories, but Athy had to meet Claude at her 9th birthday and yet she met him at her 5th birthday and as he had said "1 year more" I think the spell would end when she would have been 6 years and 3 years later know meet Claude, it's so sad this story but I have another theory too, the fact that Athy Said "lippe tea" and others especially that Athy had lot of Diana's personality I clearly think that the Athy we know should have been the real Athanasia from the beginning but there must have been a problem otherwise why would she suddenly send in the novel?? In my opinion her Korean body would have been at the first Athanasia like idk maybe a switching body ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

One of the reasons for my second theory comes mainly from the fact that why Athy has imperial magical powers when Athanasia never had them ??? It's very weird and that's what made me say she has I don't know maybe was sent into the body where she should have been at the base
╮(￣▽￣)╭

I really don't know if I could explain it properly

She is the Athanasia from the novelv, Lucas already revealed this. I think she always had magic but didn't realize

Oh to summarize everything the Athanasia that got sent in the Novel was the real Athanasia.

As Lucas indirectly explained in the previous Chapters; The 1st time she got unlucky (Claude doesn't remember her so she met misfortune), The 2nd time she gave up (Athanasia got reincarnated as an orphan in Korea, but she got depressed and overdosed in sleeping pills), -- what's gonna happen now that she's back?-- I can't remember what chapter but this was after Lucas temporarily cured Claude after he got back you may want to re-read.


And you may also want to re-read the chapters where Athy and Lucas were in Claude's room after Lucas temporarily cured Claude;

Because Lucas mentioned there that Jeanette has magic and Athy got confused and asked him how did Jeanette have magic when she did not see her use it;

Lucas explained there that EVERY HUMAN has magic in them; it's just that it depends wether they could use it or not.

So obviously in Athy's 1st life she definitely has magic in her but did not know how to use it or did she know that she has magic; because if you remember clearly, Athy did not meet Lucas in her 1st Life. They only met in Athy's current life.

WHICH serves as big difference in Athy's return because knowing magic and having allies definitely changes her situation compared to her 1st life where she is alone and did not know how to fight back.

And also what I said earlier that Claude erased his memories in Athy's 1st life using black magic is what happened in the Novel; (someone spoiled it for me) (▰˘◡˘▰)

OH WAS HER FROM THE BEGİNNİNG !!! I didn't understand that they had shown Athanasia because you couldn't see his face !!! Wow I'm experiencing a shock there
