If I felt sorry for the people she controls. If it wasn’t for her, everyone would’ve been happily together and I think the prince really does love her, but that was a hard-core spell that she made everyone eat. I don’t know. It sounds like drugs were involved and I always think that love potions There’s a form of crossing the line when it comes to consent. It’s not the guy’s fault. Love potions make you do stuff, just like a roofie does.
Ya but you got to remember the potion wouldn't have worked if he didn't have some negative feelings for her ┐(´ー｀)┌ but still you can't help but feel bad
Alright, let’s break this down: the idea that a love potion could make people act totally insane isn’t so far-fetched when you think about it. Realistically, nobody loves anyone *that* purely. Like, if a husband leaves the toilet seat up and the wife falls in, she’s not going to sit there in the cold toilet water thinking, *“Wow, he’s so adorable for doing this to me.”* No. She’s going to think, *“I might strangle this man in his sleep.”* But she doesn’t because, deep down, she still loves him—even if she’s plotting minor acts of revenge.
And friends? Sure, we love our friends, but we also roast the hell out of them. Do you think anyone greets their bestie with, *“Oh, radiant goddess, your presence fills my soul with light”?* No. You roll up in your car yelling, *“Get in, loser, we’re getting Taco Bell.”* That’s how real relationships work: love and annoyance go hand in hand.
Now, this love potion you’re talking about—it’s like weaponized pureness. If it makes someone so in love that they’d sniff their partner’s farts and call it Chanel No. 5, that’s not love; that’s witchcraft. People aren’t perfect. Everyone has moments where they think, *“Wow, I love you, but also, I kinda hate you right now.”* That’s normal. Even babies aren’t immune! Babies are cute, sure, but when one pukes on your favorite sweater, you’re not thinking, *“How charming!”* You’re just dealing with it because it’s a baby and you’re not a monster.
This potion, though? It’s like emotional lead poisoning. These people are being dosed little by little, and suddenly they’re acting irrational, obsessive, and totally unhinged. It’s not love—it’s brain damage. You can’t blame them for losing their minds because their emotions are so out of balance, it’s like their brains turned into Swiss cheese. They’re basically drunk on “love paint,” and it’s a disaster waiting to happen.
I think it’s worth noting tho that Remi discusses the power of the love potion in an earlier chapter. While it does have a strong grip on emotions and provides infatuation, she notes that their decision to betray Emi is possible only because they actually held some resentment, jealousy, or other negative emotion that made them want her to suffer. It amps up their feelings for Pina but doesn’t delete their love for Emi.
Okay does anyone know what the pink hair girl or the red-headed Prince dude is doing? Does anyone care? I don't care. And I guess the other characters are cool and the main blonde prints that's the love interest is all right but, the only people I care about is the little brother and the main character. Give me more sibling relationship and heartwarming moments between them. It's like, that's what I look forward to. I want to see the little boy be protective or be cute around his sister and they have fun and get along and do magic. Everything else it's all right but just not as interesting as the little brother and the main character
fr I started wanting to read more scenarios between MC and the little bro
Thank you, same! I'm like... more money schemes? Mmmkay but more little brother moments, yes please! He's so cute. I want to see if he has a villain side or just an all around cinnamon roll
I knew this was exactly going to happen. I Knew this was exactly what's going to happen. So predictable
Well,not exactly a very complicated/intricate plot, not so deep villain...still nice to read
Actually hoping for Redemption Arc for him. Yeah he did some wrong but he loved his little sister and I'm sorry but I thought that was a redeeming feature. He didn't want his sister to get hurt and he didn't know that she was going to get kidnapped by his crazy girlfriend. So I was sad to hear that he's going to get executed and she doesn't feel sorry at all? He loved his little sister. Just got to be some kind of redemption art. You can't just execute him. That's so sad
Do you remember the chapter where he met the MC’s sister in prison? He said that he didn’t care what she did but wanted to just be left out of it. That includes his younger sister’s kidnapping. I don’t think he gaf rip
Heavy on the rip. But for me it's, Rest in pieces. Also, idk what that person talking about. He literally attempted to murder the MC a few chapters ago? And only didn't succeed cuz she expected it? What redemption? He made his bed, I expect him to lie in it!
Im not sure if we read the same manhwa coz aint no way thay scum deserves redemption!!??
I'm talking about the little sister of the main character guy. Yeah he cared about his little sister. What part did you read that he tried to get her murdered? I can see that at all. It was his crazy girlfriend that tried to get her kidnapped and brainwashed. The crazy girlfriend got away with it but why is he being sentenced? Come on man he cared about his little sister. Even if she was illegitimate he was there for her and he cared about her opinion. What did you read the part where he tried to hurt her unless he was under some brainwashing
Regardless if he loved his sister, he still committed crimes, and needs to answer for it. He's not getting a redemption arc even though he loves his sister, because his crimes don't depend on his sibling. He hurt other people, and would've gotten away with it if wasn't for the MC stopping him.
This is the calm before the storm tho... sadly.
FYMMMM
WHAT, WHAT HAPPENED? spill the tea please
What?!!!
SPOILLLLL
not u again
Omg wait you're right lmaooo
SAY WHAT NOWWWW
IM CRYINGG LOL THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE PANICKING UNDER YOUR COMMENT
TWISTED CUPID GO AWAY STOP IT
YO WTF DO YOU MEAN!??
The people waving red flags really tells you about the main Heroes of the story. I'm sorry but am I supposed to sympathize with a queen that allows slavery in her system and then is shocked that a slave girl wants a better life and but doesn't know how or doesn't know any better? Girl is now just trying to be petty, and I'm not having it. Also why did the other chick have to hang herself? Because she wanted to come out like what? Wanted to be the Mistress of the king or something? Because she spread a rumor? So she had to go and kill herself? Is it a little bit too overreactive? Is that whole place is full of toxic royals. I hope they have a revolt. The French Revolution needs to happen in this thing.
lmao woke af
LMFAO it's a fantasy story, stories that explore unrealistic outcomes etc. Nobody reads Manhwa and so to live in reality
Not woke (tho thanks cause i love my civil rights), just not a royalist. Hear me.out, Let's not lose pur sense of objectivity when we romanticize royalty and forget our own history. The institution of monarchy like we see in this story, is STILL built on exploitation, oppression, and bloodshed. The truth is, most of us have ancestors who were enslaved, colonized, or marginalized by the very same power structures that stories like these royalty represents.
Rashta's story resonates deeply with me because it's a reflection of our own struggles against systemic oppression and becoming lost in it. By siding with the Empress, we're essentially being manipulated into supporting the same class system our descendants who were enslaved, exploited, and brutalized by, our very ancestors.
We must remember that our grandparents fought tirelessly for independence, equality, and justice. By sympathizing with the oppressors (even in fiction), we're erasing their struggles and legitimizing the harmful power dynamics that have held us back for centuries and throwing trash on someone who is being "taught a lesson in trying to gain freedom and escape their position in society... ie if your low class, you stay in low class...".
Let's face it, some of our European or Spanish features probably came from the very side that had SA or abused one of our ancestors that resembled that closely resembled Rashta (a pretty girl that can't say no) than a noble lady like Navier, and we should recognize that. Let's not be swayed by the glamour of royalty or the false narrative that power equals righteousness. Our ancestors' legacies demand we stand against oppression, not perpetuate it. Just saying.
goodness I ain't reading all that. Anyway, it seems to me you're hurt by something in real life and you're bringing that sentiment here.
Not a good idea, bro... This js just a romance comic, you should realize it's the furthest thing from reality
Well I jave been studying political science and media and history has shown me the power of stories in reinforcing classism. I just want to encourage everyone to read with discernment, recognizing the narrative's influence without embracing its implicit moralities
“I have been studying political science”, if you can’t identify the line between fantasy and reality, you’re in deep shit. We know what’s real and what’s not. Like we know that there’s no such thing as a human that magically turns into a bird lmao
Also, if you’re studying shit about history, you should know that people hundreds of years ago are so baseless when it comes to their morals. They reflect life with fantasy because they lack in knowledge and education. Our ethics and morals have such solid foundations because of the world’s history that we learned from so simple fantasy stories like this would not sway us because we’re educated enough; which doesn’t seem to be the same thing as yours because you still reflect your reality with these kinds of stories like uneducated people from the past.
lmaaoo preach dude
I agree with reading with discernment especially since I know media can have a big influence on easily impressionable people, but I'm curious if you could elaborate more on what you mean by fighting against oppression today? Assuming you're from the US, do you mean racially or governmentally? Are you trying to bring out the negative light on the imperialistic system because of class oppression? Are you trying to praise capitalism and is upset that people romanticize fantasy Imperialism? And why have you decided to comment political aspects when you know you could backlash becuase it's just a fiction fantasy story?
Funny is that this creature is saying “I have been studying political science and history” when it’s clearly said on its bio that this creature is an art student lmao
well it is the internet, there's a pretty big chance they're trolling
I am an art student. What makes you think that the only classes I'll be doing well in is in art? Once again, you got to paint everybody with the same brush? It's so stereotypical, you watch TV and you think you know what art students are like, just like how media shapes your opinions and perspectives on people, I'm just pointing out, that these stories might seem harmless but, just like it shaped your awareness of others, this can normalize being a royalist.
No, it won’t. I’m not like you. I’m a perfectly normal human being that’s educated.
You don’t reply to comments that debunked your ideology with rational reasoning because you know you're dumb and can’t answer them. And obviously you're going trolling as a political student cause who the fuck studies pol sci and history and lets fiction affect their mentality? Lol
Finally someone says it
With most of the series, always having that Shakespearean vibe to it, I guess we have to go pay homage to the Romeo and Juliet part of the story. Where there has to be one Othello like tragedy to happen. Getting ready to grab my Kleenex.
You may need them for happy tears.
Except if you like Astana... then yeah...
Ssssh… I’m trying to build suspense so people would think that just going to be a tragedy happening soon. Everything can’t be all sunshine and butterflies in the story. I wanna build some suspense you know, like oh my goodness is this gonna be a tragedy
