Binged this just now and I really think people should make it to chapter 20 at the very least because it’s quite good. This series isn’t playing all of its cards in the first few chapters, which is kind of nice. The whole twin situation reminds me of The Parent Trap, which involves a similar split up. It’s interesting and I like that MC stands up for herself. Defending both her own honour and her sister’s honour is pretty knightly and doing so with words and not action is more mature and contextually appropriate.The crown prince is kind of sus in how fast he’s moving, but I respect the audacity of openly courting the sister the 2nd prince/empress tossed aside even though she’s from a powerful family. There’s probably some spirit affinity going on too. I also don’t think he’s a doormat because there’s clearly other things going on underneath the hood.
I definitely agree. And chapter 25 definitely gives a bit more insight on his interest with MC. I’m hoping that he’s genuinely kind from beginning to end and doesn’t add to my list of trust issue sources. (￣∇￣")
Would “sweet potato” be the right term to use for Sigrid? Because it feels oddly applicable at this point.
Idk if this is just me being optimistic, but it feels like he’s trying to test her and teach her a lesson for her own sake because she’s unavoidably involved in all this more than ever before. He’s been shielding her from the darker sides of himself for her sake because he does love her, but can no longer do that due to her change in position. She does need to understand the full weight of the power she now holds and the difference between being a nephilim and a demon, which involves a hierarchical system of power in which he reigns supreme. But, we also know she’s not one to let fear get in her way (as we’ve seen countless times) and that she’s already seen the nasty side of Cesare’s personality because he didn’t hide it 600 years ago. And yet, as hostile as he was, he formed an attachment strong enough to last that long. I think he wants to know if she really committed to this relationship and if she accept every him, in all his forms. I thing his words and intimidation tactics aren’t quite matching his actions. He’s pointing out how much she should be afraid even when she continues to push forward, but still treats her differently from the others. Just some thoughts.
Getting into this i truly did not expect the villainy to be venture capitalism by the 1% yet here we are. In great detail at that. Also, I don’t think coffee people realize that the bitter drink will not appeal to everyone, regardless of how well it’s brewed. Maybe with milk/sugar, but I’d rather have a strong black tea any day.
As a black coffee drinker I can confirm that it is an acquired taste. I used to drink it with milk and sugar, then gradually less sugar.. less milk.
Don’t get me wrong, I will drink it with milk and honey but not on regular basis
I heavily relate to that coffee dislike. Sometimes coffee fanatics forget that some people hate the drink no matter how sweetened (and in some cases like me, even hate the smell). I'll stick tea for my caffeine intake, thanks.
I don't mind reading about coffee being this amazing drink, but I'm always curious how they'd deal with a coffee hater but they just never get around to it.
Fr, I feel exactly the same! The duchess' lofi coffee house was especially difficult for me to read. At least this one has non-coffee drinks like smoothies
Lmao I had a hard time with that one too for the same reason!!
“Ailette is waving at the air again” took me the fuck out. I now forgive them for changing when she gets the reward compared to the novel, because he’s asleep when it happens. I can’t wait until he gets to see her in that outfit
Can you please give me the link? I can only find until 102 chapters
This reminded me so much of “If You Touch My Brother, You’re Dead” in the best possible way, like the sheer chaotic energy is unbelievable
Huh? Aren't they written by the same person? Or was it my imagination....?
I feel like I should have expected this but still…I forgot to add the spoiler thing so beware.

-Arya has actually regressed countless times but lost all memory of it.
-Axel (true ML) had always been close to her since before the 1st regression and saves her from the experiments from 1st timeline onward (her father gets what he deserves) when looking for a talented elementalist for the Labyrinth subjugation. Not sure if he remembers anything.
-There’s a lot of Demon King soul/possession stuff with Axel, plus the whole deal with him being the vessel etc it’s too much for me to explain properly here…basically they can’t win this way no matter the plan. Aria always ends up dying and ML regresses for her sake, making the Demon Lord problem worse.
-Eventually, He seals away the Demon King in part of his soul (somehow??). He has the god El turn back time to the beginning and tries to protect Aria by sealing her memories so she won’t be involved with him. He has her mother write the “novel” to only give her hints of the future, but has her to omit their close (intimate??) relationship—Current timeline romance is sparse.
-Not sure about the plot climax??
-The fantasy library=library of the dead. This is where she interacts with her mother, who is there as a dead person and Aria can visit because her mom made a deal with the god El. The library is slowly killing her.
-Pi basically exists to the library’s god and replace(?) the evil god. It’s sad. I’m sad. He deserves better. He resents being part of the plot to save Axel and heads into yandere territory when he’s tempted to kill her to keep her with him. His other ideas are also kind of dark bc he also splits his soul and the half that wants her to be happy is kind of also bad.
-His end is kind of??? he does become a god and she convinces him to live on and move forward. Idk.
-The day gets saved and they’re all heroes and such. Notably, Ludwig becomes crown prince and gets the recognition deserves.
-I do think the full truth about Axel and Aria’s multiple-regression-spanning, tragic love story, humanizes him a lot compared to the way he’s portrayed in the “novel.” His motivation to defeat the Demon King make so much more sense than just doing it out of some obligation and turning back time to his own detriment, which probably would have been obvious at some point. He needed desperation to do it despite that. He also would have different reasons to get more powerful spirits than what was written. But idk if he remembers bc it doesn’t seem like it???
so basically, author did pi dirty?
Yep
The fact that Yvonne has the same name as my grandma somehow makes this worse…I’m so glad Derek never gets redeemed after all this, he doesn’t deserve it. Not that he ever did, considering how little he changed as a character. Reynold at least made the full transition from homicidal menace at the start to apologetic and relatively “normal” sibling.
It’s the fact that they discussed and reflected upon the multitude of misunderstandings that really made this so satisfying because HOLY WOW were there a lot of them and suffering through it was a test of endurance. I’m so glad we made it
I actually like the way the children actually behave like children and there aren’t really any weird romantic undertones. A child’s body is also easily overwhelmed so I get why MC cries so much, plus og FL had a miserable enough life that feeling insecure makes sense. It’s not super original but it’s a nice and fluffy read without being particularly frustrating—one can only read so many dramatic childcare stories at once. I do think transmigration was a Choice and that this should have been regression. Anyway it’s all so adorable and the art is pretty that I don’t mind

So I guess she eventually forgives her father and brother?? Tbh I’m not really upset about this I guess??? They were desperately searching for her for her entire life on no information, not even gender apparently. It doesn’t seem like he had much of a choice marrying the Empress and they were very literally brainwashed. Her brother is the one who gave her another life. It depends on HOW this all goes down though.
