SPOILERS ABOUT ML FROM NOVELUPDATES
ml love fl long ago at first sight, after he visited palace to ask for support because his land suffering from poor and drain, but the emperor refused to meet him, he accidently saw beautiful fl and he thought he never can marry her because her family is rich and his land is poor. Later he received the letter from emperor about marriage and he was surprised abt this, and he tried to find the way to solve problem in his land because he loves her and fears she hate this marriage because he cant provide her the life like in capital. So he went to fight with monster to find the source of problem. He got a lot of injure and scars due to that (fl never know about this).
OP basically said that he has no real power in the dukedom and since his land was poor, he has to go an fight all the monsters to get recognized. apparently the FL grew up rich so he wanted to give her those same luxuries.

now i don’t appreciate you pick-mes in the comment hating on regina. it’s been established that while she is the loud and aggressive type of FL she is very perceptive and can adapt easily to her surroundings. she is constantly aware of any changes happening in the novel and tries to match them in order to survive. sometimes fighting head on is t always the answer and regina knows that, which is why she goes with what the duke says.
think about it. she was quick to come up with an alibi for him, knew how to avoid him for a long while, was able to notice the suspicious man following her and smell the oil on him, and even caught onto to the coachmans voice so that she could tell she’d get kidnapped. she isn’t strong but she is hyper aware and not a an airhead at all. she knows the story is changing.
anyways, if you don’t like her character you could always read another manhwa.

I agree. We could read the start of her being a coward, timid scaredy cat. But she is intelligent enough to know about the changes surrounding her and the cuase as herself, and her having to be perceptive, wise and quick-witted to know about the things happening around. Its a book after all. There is a long road ahead for her character development shining through her y'know

I'm not denying her strength at all and I get where she is coming from he was supposed to kill her and as such she is on high alert , even so she is still very biased against him in terms of the way he's been acting, yes she has every reason to be weary and every reason to be afraid but idk I expected her to look at his actions rather than his character description from the novel given that the novel already changed. Although this is my opnion ik that her actions are justified I just hope she stops this soon cause I believe when she gets more confident she'll be an amazing FL. Anyways character development ig

i find it hilarious to see how many of y’all are hating on penelope for not wanting to care about eclise. like did everyone collectively forget that penelope is at risk of death at all moments if she doesn’t increase the favorability meter? and this life may hit a bit too close to home for her since she escaped her abusive family in her first life only to get sucked into another one.
here’s a little spoiler for you guys, eclise is grown. he’s been a slave ever since his country was taken over. he is significantly stronger than penelope and had even resolved to kill her after meeting her. his intentions were never pure. penelope manipulated him but he knew what her intentions were FROM THE START. she told him that. he soon drifted into extremely dangerous yandere territory and brought the OG!FL to penelopes family to ruin her plans. he is not some innocent boy being taken advantage of. literally fuck him! i can’t except penelope to care much about anyone else when she’s trying not to die…
let’s start normalizing not having to have romantic feelings or caring about any guy who looks emotionally affectionate in manhwas. FLs don’t owe them anything.

FL left him alone yet he came to her and gave her false hope. he needs to get his feelings together quick. anyways i’m pretty sure black haired boy and FL are platonic friends cause he doesn’t really look romantically interested in her, he just likes her as a friend.

I did not expect him to not like her romantically, I was so surprised, but its actually not that surprising, ive seen a lot of shoujo with LGBT+ characters especially gay men, although I have yet to see a lesbian one. also yea the ML sucks, its so obvious hes leading her on but he doesnt want to be lonely so he uses her to fill that gap. so shitty...

to think that a lot of the horny girls on this app simped for dion from The Way to Protect the Female Lead's Older Brother yet can’t find it in their hearts to sympathize of feel for judith. not only that but every emotionless conventionally attractive male killer/yandere type is fawned over yet we draw the line at a morally gray mc? i’m not saying she didn’t do a lot of wrong in her past life but she was raised in poverty, worked as a maid from a young age and had to care for a sickly mother in her teen years. she’s a commoner with debt and no support system who fell into the lies of a manipulative authority figure. he blackmailed her and made her believe she was too far gone to turn back to a better path.
hating on the mc only proves to me that the young girls who read these manhwas will excuse any actions a male takes yet hold female counterparts to an immeasurable standard. this is why you’ll only get the cookie cutter self insert mc with no personality as protagonists since they’re exactly what y’all want anyways.

Omg I SO agree! I am one of those people who replied against comments supporting Dion as ML, not just because he's the FL's blood-related brother, but the one who killed her real brother and traumatized her!! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Some people are crazy. I see double standards and hypocrisy everywhere, but your words are the absolute truth! Thank you for speaking on this!!

trueee!!! like i simp for dion but on this one i dont hate the fl at all! lol its kind of understandable to me since i would want to have many many money too but ofc killing innocent people r bad and i just feel bad 4 her situation : (( being emotionally and mentally manipulated by that guy--id go crazy or greedy 2

that's what i've been saying! while i do think dion is attractive it repulsed me by how well praised he was and how people rooted for him as a ML. i quite like this MC as she is not an evil or good person, just like most people. while i may not kill people for money i understand her circumstances and whatnot. wish people were more open minded and realized that not every MC has to be a perfect sweet and gentle person.

lmao they even cheer for the other story's fls revenge even if she was once a villainess too and in here the fl may have done many bad things but im thankful that she's just trying to survive and not just thinking of revenge all the time because its a fcking waste of time not that i hate reborn & revenge plotline thooo

i find it interesting how adele really doesn’t care about rebecca in the grand scheme of things. people must have attempted to harass her or hurt her since she was the most likely heir but it’s admirable how she keeps the business smile on her face when she knows most people are against her. she knows not to put her faith on the high priestess and she doesn’t give rebecca the benefit of the doubt either. i’m really enjoying her personality.
this bitch is god omg
yes, this fact annoys me greatly
