Did anyone notice in ch3, when he woke up from his nightmare, his phone clock display was 04:44?

Haha don't worry yourself so much as this is all is mostly just baseless superstition based on ancient cultural belief. But if you refer to some kind paranormal haunting of some sort, I can list at least 50 signs that's usually correlates with each other to determine whether your place is haunted or not.

Since the original commenter had given permission, so I will share some of my knowledge regarding paranormal. Please feel free to believe it or disregard it as total nonsense. Below I listed some of the general/common signs, because some of the signs in those 50 can be divided under sub-categories like sightings, dreams, body discomfort, noise, etc... so I will try my best to summarize it to the best of my ability.
1.Frequent headaches for no apparent reason
2.Arguing with family members often
3.Frequent bad dreams/nightmares that is oddly specific. Below are the most common examples of paranormal related dream and some signs after waking up from such dreams:
•The heart moves fast and beats for no reason
•Back pain
•There are bruises/scratches on the body when waking up in the morning
•Pain in the main joints
•Unexplained pain like migraine
•Dreams like falling from a high place and everything related to a high place: Like climbing a high place.
•Dream of an old or bad house, all dreams about cemeteries, seeing graves, the process of burying, burying, being buried or sitting in a grave, a garbage dump or a scary street.
•Dream of being given something by a deceased relative
•Dream of being in a cemetery
•Dream of breastfeeding a baby
•Dream of seeing different kinds of scary animals: Like snakes, wolves, big rats, tigers and others.
•Often dreams of scary things, strange people like very tall, very short, very white or very black resembling aliens and others
•Often dream of having sex
•A feeling of being overlaid (a dream of being overlaid by something heavy and difficult to get out of it) as if in a paralysis: Or a dream of seeing something scary as if you want to scream for help but your mouth seems to be locked.
•Delirious, laughing, crying, screaming, nagging, moaning and sometimes walking in your sleep: With your eyes being closed.
4.Often feeling afraid feeling like you are being observed when at home
5.Babies are always fussy when at home
6.Smell something bad like dead carcasses and something too fragrant with no reason/unclear source
7.Heard a strange voice of unclear origin: like the sound of crying, laughing, footsteps, even the voice of people talking
8.Cats and dogs around the house noisy/agitated for no clear reason
9.Often Seeing apparitions/glimpse of a shadow around the house
10.Homeowners prefer to be alone
11.Feeling accompanied when sleeping alone
12.Turning away when listening to good things like advice from close family member, etc..
13.Hearing the sound of furniture being dragged, the sound of marbles rolling on the roof, the sound of sand falling on the roof, the sound of items being smashed, the sound of craftsman while there is no one in our neighbour's house, knocking, footsteps
14.Goods or money/random object disappear by itself and then found at different place
Some extra info (not relevant but I felt like sharing anyways):
In most cases, such occurrence always happen in house where there are such places like an empty room that has not been inhabited for a long time, a dark dirty and damp place, garden area, attic that is rarely used, dirty bathroom, a room full of pictures or statues resembling living beings such as humans or animals, a room with musical instruments.
In some Southeast Asian cultures/beliefs, there are three particular time period where such paranormal occurences usually happen that is 7-8 PM (right after nightfall), 12 AM (midnight), 3AM-4AM (in some ancient belief this time period is known as the witching hour)
That's all I had to share for now, because if I keep yapping I'm afraid that I cant stop myself from going into the topics of black magic/sorcery/witchcraft lmfao.

Thank you as well for writing this out, omg there are a lot and I agree with Lawson, it is creepy but some got my attention at least 1-2? That it happened just recently though it was only 1 each day then it stopped. Although I still hate this day that everytime I look at my clock, it still either 44 minutes in any hour or 4:44

Tbh, I think the writing sucks so bad, ml just don't make sense. Would've been better if they actually made him focus on the actual problem (like him being a noble and mc being a servant, had some moments where they question themselves if love is worth risking for after fighting for each other) but NO, they wrote an ml who had to rape mc cause things aren't 'easy'. Funny to say that they now had a pretty good solution, ml rose in status and ml's wife is laidback. But things aren't progressing nicely coz ml had to be a dumbass. I know characters are supposed to go through challenges but is it hard to write a conflict that actually made sense? This is just one of the manhwas out there where the storyline sucks and the art is the only thing keeping it alive

Hi y'all, does this story have romance or harem??

Yep, we've definitely seen this with some of the side characters. (Okay, well, nothing has been confirmed but I'm hoping/my shipping instincts are tingling between a certain mage and a group leader who used to not get along. Emitting details and names to not spoil things to those who aren't caught up.)
Tbh I doubt we'll get anything with MC, unless there was a special female character mentioned at the beginning who could hold deeper meaning (I don't remember and am too lazy to check) later in the story. Either way, if we get anything, it's likely much later in the story.
As a side note to shipping (spoilers ahead), my senses are tingling slightly for the potential of Damien x Evangeline lol. I mean, they're the same age, they've had some fun interactions, it could happen. I'm not placing high hopes on it nor expecting much, but I can def see it happening as they grow up into their late teens and early 20s ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

When I read people asking about romance or harem I assume it's in regards to the MC. Literally everyone here hoping for that one ship you're talking about to sail because it's so damn cute and, like you said, very background and not a main part of the story!
Absolutely would have never imagined Ev × Damien, that's so random haha. Would definitely be an interesting turn of events, but I wouldn't count on it ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

Oh yeah, I'm not counting on it, it's just a thought that's occured to me a few times that i can see being possible in the way way future - I def couldn't see it happening right now, especially since Ev's more focused on training with Lucas, understandably so ( ̄∇ ̄")
I am a shipper/romance lover at heart and, likely thanks to actively reading romance for over a decade, I've noticed I can make fairly accurate guesses for what pairings may or may not happen in stories, no matter if the story is romance or not :")
Of course, it's not always accurate, so I usually just keep things to my own amusement and casually keep it in mind to see if things develop that way. In the end, it's all about those interactions and dynamics what interest me, and those are possible without romance as well ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ which is why I'd love it even if they just become really close friends/comrades and get to have more interactions.
I kinda feel bad for gisela...
