i really like the zombie theme this story has. Having the whole "zombies eat you and bites infect you" gets really old quickly.
I'm betting that the original owners of the town were apart of some scientific research for immortality (more likely investors in this than actual researchers). Maybe Guwon was a successful test subject. They spread the virus that made people revive again and caused those explosions/doomsday events to potentially find more people like Guwon but it seemingly backfired.
Guwons obsession with usefulness probably stems from something a researcher probably told him to brainwash him.
idk just a thought

this the type of shit that makes me mad. the king didnt even try to warm him up or anything. like stop being a black flag for a minute so you can actually get him to like you in that way. As soon as the hyung got to the castle he was on some insane shit. Also just to note, I'm not saying he warm him up now. He's past the point of return.
The world building of this story is set up so that Crochetta is doomed to fail, so she's just trying to go against the current in her own way.
Running away with Roger? Really? Running from the guy who literally set his house on fire, killed his mom, and has an entire army + shadow mercenaries at his control? Setting bro up to get killed and then Crochetta would get confined just like she is now but just faster.
Staying with Roger even though she was explicitly told if she stayed with him he would be brutally murdered??????
