It was kind of unexpected but necessary (⊙…⊙ )

well in the future, he was just the one who help her brother steal the throne from her, and she also used to dislike her brother, so it would be weird for her to like him

Yes let's not forget that what she sees in the futur, was her not knowing of anything, or at least she knew too late ! She did not like her brother as her futur self and now she just doesn't care for him!
So yeah, pretty sure she and Khun barely knew each other when they got married and they did so cause her brother became king! Seems like a plausible explanation tbh

Oh yeahhh makes sense! Thank goodness I was worried he would betray her

That’s true! I completely forgot that! I was worried it would be a situation with betrayal

He proposed to her chapter 73. Its chapter 77 and every character has been asking her what her response will be since. Like it’s either a yes or no what’s the point in keeping her indecisive for 5 chapters.

well i mean 5 chapters isn't that much consider how long it takes for each panel, uploading process, etc. it's not a yes or no decision because there is a lot riding on it and girlie isn't ready to give her life away just like that to someone she isn't really in love with yet lol. it would be a hard decision for a lot of people.

It would’ve been hard if she wasn’t spending half the manga trying to get her brother to accept their relationship. Why would she do that if she’s struggling to accept his proposal? And it’s not like anything is happening in those 5 chapters other than characters asking her wether or not she will say yes

well she isn't trying to get her brother to accept the proposal out of love. she doesn't really have prominent feelings for him, besides the small ones that seem to be developing. the main reason she's trying to get the brother to be okay with the relationship is so that her brother can be comfortable with the idea of her leaving the household and stop being so brattily possessive of her.

i meant to put the previous response in response to this comment ^

Yeahh but she would’ve done so by leaving her household with the ML so why is she hesitating now. It just feels like the author is adding unnecessary drama to the story

when she even wanted to go out her brother would throw a fit and scream. remember at the end of the day she is trying to prevent herself from being killed (by her brother?), so she needs to do it in a way that won't make him angry because she still believes she can die, even though we see that her brother seems to have changed, she doesn't technically know that. it is entirely valid for her to be cautious in getting into a relationship with someone she barely knows just to be a legal guardian for her brother.

LOL The reason she hasn't answered (well she did-just privately), is because she has to OFFICIALLY say yes, since he proposed to her in public. Due to this she has to stand up in public, and respond back to the proposal. Think about it, she is gets nervous around all nobility, and now she is going to have to stand up before them and respond to the hero of the kingdom, whom everyone worships. Add into the fact that she is a blacksmith. Expect her to present him with a gift of some sort at the Ball. (after she is no doubt cornered by the Princess)

Are you a kid or what? You seem to not know the severity of marriage... it's not something you just said in the spur of the moment like how the other isekai webtoons are... As Alicia, there's so many thing to sort out first. It's not always about romance gurl. Just read some other cliche if thaf's what u want

Relax it’s just a manga

since no one said it, I will: BEST response to the OG question ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~

Indeed. They could have started anew. But the whole journey is about her not being able to get other her feelings for him which is at best unrealistic and at worst completly creepy.

Have you guys been paying attention? Didnt you notice earlier Duke zena saying their back up plan was to control the prince? With chains in the art as well. He was a total ass in the past. But remember how the MC was drugged? That it changed her personality? I an starting to think the prince was both drugged and manipulated in the last life.

He was convinced his father hated him. Jealous of the MC. And likely drugged and maybe even psychologically manipulated.

The changes the MC has made in this timeline seem to have changed the ML completely.

Soon we may even find out what their plans to manipulate the prince are. And hopefully jieun finds out about the actions of Zena as well.

She didn't continue her feelings for him. She had cut them off. She has fallen for a completely different prince in this timeline. All because of the changes she has made.

I agree

I am a novel reader so fully and painfully aware of what happened in the first timeline. It would be spoiler territory however , so let's just answer your remarks with the current state of the manhwa instead.

- Even if you are right and poison and brainwashing was involved, the beggning of the second timeline showed that he did not need that to hate on her. He was jaleous, had inferiority complex and for that reason alone decided to antagonize her. He is way older than her by the way. Remember when he sent her into a comatose state and then neglected her? He was hardly a child but at least 16 years old while Tia was, what, 10 years old? Suddenly it become creepy, right? He is not a "misunderstood boy" but someone with mommy issues and temper problems. When we stop sugar coating it it all boil down to that. I agree that he changed because she changed. However, we did not arrive to the same conclusion. Firstly he only changed toward her, not toward others (see how what acted toward the princesses is how he used to act toward her?). Secondly, he only changed because she suit his taste, not because he suddenly stopped being prejudiced against her. He want her, and it's the only reason why he is decent now. Worst of all, the one he want is not the "true" her but his "idea" of her because, let's be honest, they have no chemistry and he dislike it when she push him away and show him her colder side. If she had stayed the strong and level headed woman of the first timeline rather than this super emotional lovesick puppy coming from nowwhere there is no telling what would have happened to her. At the very least he would definitly not have made any efforts to get to know her nor to protect her.

- Tia was and is still in love with first timeline Ruve. It's the reason why after being terrified for their three first meetings she quickly start to blush, to ask herself if they are not meant to be together after all and wonder if he sent her back when she was sick because he was worried about her. At one point she is already making sure that the food will suit his taste. See the problem? He only showed disgust and hatred to her, during the second timeline too mind you, but without him having to do anything at all she is suddenly fine with him. Then he gets angry and accuse her of playing with him. Because she see flashback of the past she is sent into a comatose state... And after that? At their very next meeting all is fine and dandy to the point they are talking about flowers. She worry about him. She start getting close to him and cheer him up while the last time they talked he showed that he was going to take the same path. Why? As far as she is concerned he is his future abuser and she had no reason to trust him let alone to love him. Allen and Carsien are the one who helped her out, protected her. The only explaination why she can't get away from him is because she never overcame her feelings for him when she should not have them in the first place. They never had a single sweet moment in the first timeline, didn't eat together more that two times for that matter, and he destroyed her physically and mentally. And at the beginning of the second timeline he was on his track to do it again, even if not at such a level.

Yeh you might be right. They should have worked harder to make her fall out of love/and lean towards hate the last time line ML. It would have been interesting to have the MC grow from hate to appreciating the new time line ML. But yeh I hope this gets saved plot wise. But I can't see it.

It may just be my irl morals where I dislike the idea of hating someone for something they have done in another timeline. That ML and current ML are completely different people in my book...the last one was pure scum. But this timeline, especially after reading the MCs letter about the past...he is much more likable character.

Indeed. If a clear line had been created between the two Ruve and their relationship had started on new grounds it would have been very interesting and enjoyable. It would also have solved many issues with the plot and the execution of the story. Sadly, it's not how it turned out. One can try to argue that Second Ruve did not cross the line and that the two Ruve are completly different characters. Thus, Tia ending up with him without him having to prove himself is not that bad since it's a "new" him. However, it's not possible when the whole story is about Tia "still" being in love with him. It does not help that Ruve did nothing at all to deserve a second chance or to prove to Tia and the readers that really changed. He is treated as if he was purely a victim too when, contrary to Tia, he was actually the root of the problem along the true evil mastermind. What happened was made possible because of him and his own bad personality. Readers can't just overlook that no one forced him to torture her every chance he got. Even if he did not turn like First Ruve, he needed a redemption arc to justify the ending. And it's not the case since everything is handed out to him.

Yep your analysis was perfect. It was a narrative mistake. Where they rushed the romance with the current ruve too quickly...which made the idea of them being separate, and the idea of the MC having any sort of development both be thrown out the window.

The only real growth she has made is that. "I was raised to be an empress originally.", "this time I kept those skills, but also communicated with those around me, and became a halfling knight."

I do really like how they acknowledge that female knights are weaker.

Sobthats why the next chapter dissapeared. I tought I was the one dellusional for remembering reading next chap, but not seeing it here.

They took down all the s2manga translations. That's why the chapters aren't there. Cause s2manga translations are trash

Yeah most of the time S2manga is equal to bad translations. There were 2 mangas where it was not that bad, but most mangas are ruined because of them. Thanx for the info. (=・ω・=)
