While I understand that the author, at some point, needed to make our baby Tozen and the prince clash, I did not think it would be in this way ????
Like, I get it, its in character for him to just throw everything to the wind but at the same time, it sort of irks me that Tozen has this weird development??? He seemed to be a prideful man who understood his role in society and appreciated and did his best to preserve it even if he tends to ultra focus on one thing.
Im kind of miffed by the recent update and its making me conflicted because while I loved him for Estelle, clearly, her choices (prince vs second best knight) are both shit in their own ways ??? idk man, but Estelle gets the shortest of the sticks more than anything compared to the guys because if she chose either, she'd still get worser flack for it.
The prince, too, is just foking shoddy on the go and acts like a manipulative sadboi when he feels like it and this chapter has given Tozen a bad image. Idk im rambling but I rly feel bad for Tozen's character assassination that isn't rly an assassination because he was just insanely creepy and for sure there were hints he was going that way but also Estelle aint gonna have some peace for the next few months, let alone five years.
Nonethtless, Estelle, your words in this chapter cut like a finely sharpened knife and I love you bb, please rail the fok out of these two idiots.
P.S. No person should ever fall for the shit Tozen said in the realm of the real world, good intentions or not. Sometimes, good intentions pave the way to hell. No amount of shame and shit is gonna be worth it for a disastrous love ASHAGSHAGSHASG keep yo heads on yo necks (づ￣ ³￣)づ
We Stan Estella
Why did the author do Tozen dirty like this
Yes, we do, bestyyyy !!! #EstellaRights #TreatEstellaBetterDamnit
Same question #JusticeForTozen AHGAHSGAHGSAHGS Put him up just to bring him down ;-;
#JusticeForTozen
The author did not come to play, they just slaughtered his amazing personality and character and turned him into a creep
and i love Julia so much and if she's rly the empress, just with a reincarnation ala redemption arc as a korean woman, then Im all for it but what's not slipping is the fact that her supposed aide Eusto didnt even see the situation she was in being under the influence and manipulation of mf Fez like ???????????? make it make sense, you guys have history !! HISTORY !!!! YEARS TOGETHER !!! And you're not wondering why she went coo coo or curious enough to rly check???????????????????? fok dem constituents lol
i mean, kudos to obsessed orange-hair magician for the only one who had his doubts but im never getting past this info like wtf ???? i feel like, if i were Julia who was drowning and losing reason and the only ones i could depend on were the first ones to rebel on me with no clear investigation, id prolly cry LMAO ;-;
ikr. like for the while entire intro i was totally trash talking eusto every update
Um he tried to believe in her right up until the very end so I think you're doing him a HUGE disservice. I mean we're really going to complain about actual flaws in a character (like lack of trust, even though you've seen that person, with your own eyes, become corrupted. Believing in Yulia to that extent would be exactly the same as giving jerk MLs a pass because the things they were going to do were prevented from ever happening) rather than fake flaws where treating an innocent person like sh!t is considered a mere mistake? I think it's more likely he did try to find out the reason for her behavior but was probably not only stymied in his efforts but also given false evidence that was impossible to refute, both because the villainess' father was involved and because the one who had the empress' ear at that time just had that much more power than he did (the fact is when he did finally break with her he STILL had his doubts, even struggling with that decision he had made before he ever had any clue she had changed). Also that most likely WASN'T Yulia at the time. Or did you guys not read the part where the father and daughter duo said 'Yulia is *back*'?
But he didn't even investigate. He didn't even try to figure out why she was acting so unusual after literally serving on the battlefield with her. He just sat there silently watching her fall into madness while playing the woe my love is suddenly a bad person. He apparently loved her and trusted her to the fullest extent but didn't notice she was being drugged? No matter how you spin it he was a bitch boy who allowed her to suffer and was going to kill her without much thought or care.
I think everything @rivers said encapsulates most of my temperament with Eusto
In close consideration of Eusto's character and the tampering of Yulia's character by the original villain father-daughter duo, Eusto was SERIOUSLY blind or lacking in motivation to see what was truly happening with Yulia. He didn't go past what what was beyond the exterior, instead stayed to where he could see her and made his conclusions.
Look at it like this... you stay with someone you look up to, for like 5-10 years. By then, you two have established each others' quirks, attitudes, heck maybe mind and muscle memory of each others temperaments, trust has been built, familiarity established. Suddenly, after all those years, they seemingly change. They become a violent hedonist who suddenly doesn't listen to you and what would you do?.. Sure, Eusto WAS innocent, but its innocent in naivete. If he loved her so much to a point of peity, he could've investigated thoroughly. He decided that the easier path (which, yes, was still hurtful and hard for him) was to execute her. There was no doubt to Yulia's actions, just him "Wow,,, she's changed. I cant seem to get to her, no choice but to kill her or were doomed." without asking why this is happening. Chapters 1-3/4 established it clearly that Eusto, who clearly could have easily identified Fez as the cause of this all HAD he investigated at all, instead, saw Yulia's behavior and fostered "seeds of rebellion". So, no, he didnt try to check things out, he was angry and wanted to clean the slate right away. I may sound too harsh on Eusto but Im not really THAT mad at him. I voiced out garbled thoughts for something I think was out of character for him and more than anything, I would go so far to say that I would pin this on the author more. I however did not clearly explain that. The flaw I dislike on Eusto is a reflection of the author's execution more than anything than it is an attack to him. He has his ups, especially being the only one to voice out displeasure for her tyranny in her face, but even then, that was the bare minimum. Again, author's execution. But separating them both, I just dislike Eusto for the lack of trust and probing because that is unlike how his character was introduced and I personally couldn't get over it. But more than that, I don't hate him.
Lastly, there is no way to equate Eusto = MLs who were ALREADY born jerks. Eusto is a chivalrous character, whereas there is no comparison to MLs who were grew to be jerks, cuz they're built on that premise. There's a difference to Eusto who was created in the concept of kindness and justice as his core hence he must embody that in chapters whereas you have an ML who has to unlearn the callous identity established on him by the author from an FL, thus, they're actions cannot be excused or prevented from happening because they were meant to have such a background to justify future scenarios. They are both two different characters embodying different characteristics and tropes.
So ye, while I wanna add more I think daz it since thisll be too long for anyone's comfort, really,.. orz this got long ╥﹏╥
last addition lmao: while i said all this, i AM in the process of forgiving Eusto. ive already given him enough flack for his incompetence and with the change in the results of the pre-determined story result, i would go so far to say that he does try his best for Yulia (he has the spirit) so ye, /shrugs
(hoping for the best)
Again, sorry tingz got long oomf (￣∇￣")
im throwing hands for that tactless turning her skin ivory after getting some light spirit power things,,,,, thAT WAS BIG BIG LUDICROUS VIBES she was perfect the way she was !! A sweet, cute melanin baby >:'((((
if they wanted to show that she was blessed by the light king the could have literally given her white hair or blue yes idk, imagine how sick that could have been
AAAAAAAAAAA OMG YES !!!! White hair, yes same thoughts !! It seemed like a more logical response to the light ????????? than skin ????????? Like, imagine her hair glowing in fiery holy light or sum shit and it shortens and becomes wavy or lengthens an shit in fiery silver ??? sounds more dope to me than turning her to white milk ;-; missing our choco baby
she will return to us one way or an other (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
oh, they better, or there will be hands thrown, bags fumbled and blood (fake lol) ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
lol yall act like people dont faint or belch or deck themselves at the slightest seeing their faves or something shocking, the reaction's pretty realistic, i for one wouldnt just conveniently shut up while my mind internally monologued the hell out of shock and word vomit seeing the character that's going to take my place which will get me killed,,,, hell, ill probably get cold feet, tremble holding my tea and probably look like a stupid damn fool let's go easy on Sheilia, life's gonna be hard for her now that she hasn't seen shit going downhill THAT fast without a dang plan LMAOOOOO
honestly good for her for surviving this long, props to that. i'd die the first day with nothing but existential dread for this unfamiliar place, from terrible acting and/or lack of awareness for politics, heck even remember the story ASOAIDFSLJNGOHJNLF
some of us just aint built for this life
Honestly.....
Lady Anna >>>>> Stephanie
Anna was a misguided protag but she was seriously chill af, but this Stephanie, she gross AF. With that attitude, there is no redeeming her ASWOUSDFHGHYRTERSFDV push her off a cliff !! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
I wanted to hang her upside down with a cloth over her head and drop her in a tub of water then pull her back up for a short while then repeat the process until she dies
ASEOUSFDHNLJTERWTFSGDH while that's very wicked i just wanted to imagine our 'villain' FL actually acting the part and threaten Stephanie's life with her knight and the prince tryna stomp her and shit so her knees buckle LMAOOO, at least use her initial character ya feel me ?? but ofc she's too nice for her own good it actually makes me tear up that this'll be dragged up and its shallow love drama this time lol ;-;
Lolol very true. Damn these girls that are getting reincarnated as the villainess really gets the short end of the stick haha they really gotta rack their brains to survive
indeed, poor them :(((( i know it hard to survive and your racking your brains and turning it over but at least dont be such a nice push over, it litrally drags you down :(((( may they find strength and courage and keep their companions, they deserve them at least uwu
i hope the scanlation team doesnt get discouraged to continue their scanlations just because of these mass translations, you guys are highly appreciated and i truly feel sorry for this sudden sniping.
i can honestly say, i would very much prefer waiting a week or two for one chapter with better quality than this. Honestly tho, even if you dont understand the whole thing, if you get the gist of it, you can even bullshit the translations to a more readable quality with semantics than this if you're able to speak in english and use context clues as a guide. While effort is applauded, with this quality and butchering of context, that's a lot of wasted time and effort. I honestly pity the person who wasted energy rather than be irritated?? All the more if they just slapped things on a machine translator. RIP non-reversible time.
For now, I am gonna dip ╮(￣▽￣)╭ ciao
Thank you for your hard work, translator-sama! I hope your meals are always delicious and you’re eating regularly ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
what if this is a 'fuck you reader' typa twist. this whole time, since were watching this in cecil's pov, she could be manipulating us the audience with her memories since she did say that she was placed in an abandoned palace and as a means to cope surviving with such a harrowing place all by herself as a kid, she might have conjured them since the author who's in the saint's body never mentioned anything about supernatural maids lol,,, hmmm but second theory is that they were killed by a greater force who wants to use Cecil to get to the emperor, a grand conspiracy of sorts ......... or... or..
damn, the mind games tho, quite anxiety-inducing ╮(￣▽￣)╭
and your cheater ass has got to chill and eat some mcflurry. the audacity of this drama queen LMAOOO like, sir, you cheated outta that harem and now you acting up again. are you drunk? are we ok? is your brain nothing but maggots? your the esteemed scholar of the harem but you've been the dumbest out of the whole bunch
