Knowing her goofiness so far, I think she will be bothered that this is affecting her husband lol like this is how she might interpret it as if they are badmouthing the duke.. she didn't care so far about having a wedding ceremony
I feel like Diana is living in a continuous denial with premium gaslighting dude! Like wtf!
I usually have nothing against the protagonist which is her in this case
But she's made so dumb, plain, attention seeker and hypocrite adding to what's mentioned above.
I can stand Helius, I take his behavior as normal. It's the bad that should be in a story or can be in a story for events to happen or spice them up, plus he's also rational though. But Diana is just a terrible character for me, she is not adding anything.
I usually love the protagonists in the story and have nothing against them, sometimes I even cheer them up lol (guilty pleasure when protagonist is hot hehe ). But, AGAIN, she cannot even be considered one. She might as well have been dead, her presence is so weak and her character is so plain. Let alone what comes out of her mouth, just remain silent please, her arguments make me laugh. Why did they make her like this
And what's worse she didn't love neither of them, but went for Helius for rank, status and power. Yet, she pushes people to be frugal and invites them over bad quality tea.
It feels like the author wanted to show that she's so bad just for the sake of having a bad character. Like let's put all the negative points in one person.
All of them have negative and positive points, except for her. I only see negative when ismt comes to her.
Even in the flashbacks, she was so plain, like wtf do you mean, Caelus was taken aback when she told him to come look at the shining water flowing in the river!!!
I think just like Hestia thought of Diana, she had been walking on the flower road. Diana was the typical heroine that was so perfect and special, everyone loves her and even god loved her???!! And because of that, even in the original story, she didn’t have to face any hardships at all, everything was solved by Heios or Kealus or someone else. This lead to her character not having any development and she just stays plain until the end of the original novel. Because of how life has been so easy on her, she thinks that she’s always right and become extremely self-centered. At the result, we have a plain, stupid, and stubborn as fuck original heroine.
That my thought on Diana, feel free to add yours
You're right and this is what is annoying me too.
Helios is the hero in the previous storyline and Hestia kept commenting on how smart he is and quick to catch on '' as expected from the Male Lead'' and the same goes for Caelus as the 2nd male lead. But never once was there any good thing to be '' as expected from the female lead'' she was made as a doll the 1st time and a dumb plain character the 2nd time.
Yeah! And you can possibly blame the original author of the novel for making Diana life so easy that she just actually dumb and a narcissist . But after the ending of the original story and she became a princess, i think it’s all on her that she has to suffer. The plot of the original novel had ended and she was left on her own this time. However, girl literally has a bunch of people (Harmony, Helios,…) guiding throughout everything (again) but too stubborn and stupid to actually listen to anyone. She dug her own grave (and i’m love it for her )
Abagail giving Virité a hard time was so hilarious lol
And Sable my man looks terribly traumatized
Now that these two finally confessed to each other, it's high time Ein and Karina do the same (I couldn't help but think about them too as they're also taking their time to confess, and they have the sister in common as a match maker but in a different way xd)
It gives me deja vu upon reading this comment. Like when someone commented how tsuruga should do the same like hak (confessing) in the page of akatsuki no yona
I'm also getting impatient with Ein and Karina too
Exactly I am still waiting for the day when ein n karina will confess to each other

The mermaid guest is a She and not a He?!, I always thought he was a guy since his 1st appearance and his different physique to Nadia please tell me there's a mistake and he is a guy actually
The mermaid guest is a princess actually! The translation just got mixed up.
She's a princess but mermaid's can change their gender and physique at will. :)
Lining up with the novel, it's the same time about the encounter between Leila and Edith but a different scene that was in the Duke's household. And man! Did I love what Edith said to Leila there.
So Leila was being rude and saying harsh things to Edith during this encounter and it was in front of Killian if I remember well. And here is the the reply of Edith (I LOVED IT! )
Edith:'' I told you not to look down on my husband. He is not an easy person''
Then Edith slowly walked in front of Leila and lifted her chin with the tip of her index finger.
''And my husband only likes the best. There is no way he will be tempted with this much''
I was like yaaas Queen! Address yourself with no less than the BEST she killed it there.
I was so in love with what she said that I took a screenshot twice to make sure it' s really saved on my phone
Edith's comebacks when she slays are rare though I remember the previous encounter between them on previous chapters in a party in the castle and Leila was being Leila as usual and then Edith was like so what, I married Killian for his wealth and to enjoy spending his money and Killian was there approving her like yes use me however you want (even thought she was joking and Killian was supporting her no matter what). It was moment of make haters hate you more and get jealous of you it was satisfying
The most ironic thing about Diana's whole situation is how she is imposing frugality on people but she is living a wealthy lifestyle.
She is wearing the highest and best quality clothes yet talks about how to be frugal. She invites people to bad quality food, as if it's a cheap treatment, but I highly doubt that she is what she is actually eating and drinking every day (it was not mentioned though).
She went for the crown prince because of higher status instead of Kael who was only a marquis. She had the audacity to think of going back to Kael as the crown prince is no longer serving as her shield and showed that he is against some of her ideas and she was ready to throw him away. Yet he still cares about her, about the royal family, about the empire's image and safety, even though I didn't like how he started showing feelings for Hess. But I respect that he put them away.
Then she is pretending to be a person with morals. She is making baby tantrums when things don't go her way.
I said it before and still say it again, I wish she wasn't that passive and dumb. It would have been better and more exciting if she was a real cunning clever antagonist. She easily falls into traps yet she is so annoying. I can't feel real happiness when Hess wins against her. If it wasn't for the obstacles the crown prince put against Hess for Diana, she wouldn't be worth her time and plans to bring her down. It feels like it's not worth the hassle to invest in the revenge against her.
Naah Hess should still follow up with the revenge... I want to see her downfall.... the pain Kael suffered because of them is too much just to let it go...
Besides, we can't be too sure if she won't counterattack at the last minute... I mean, she's a saintess... her god could give her a sudden buff that could turn things around...
Diana reminds me politicians and president of my country so it makes me angrier istg
I agree that Diana seems like easy mode for Hestia. But I think the main challenge for Hestia wasn’t Diana herself but Caelus and Helios… so honestly I wish the author wrote Helios and Diana to be a better couple because it doesn’t make sense that their relationship goes down the drain so quickly and for Helios to take Hestia’s side so immediately
They say that the Manga is different than the novel in a way that Kaelus took too long to let go of his feelings for Diana with Hess alongside him. And it is until the latest chapters of the novel that he started to pay attention to Hess. (I am not sure about this but I read it here in some of the comments)
Same ^^ I want her to proceed with the revenge as well because I want to see Diana's downfall too. It's just this feeling about how her character is made that makes me think '' is it really worth it? '' look at how Hess is working her brains out for a dumb one. This what annoys me.
I know what you're talking about
Yeah I read the novel too, and honestly somehow I prefer the pacing of the manhwa. Their relationship does feel more balanced imo. But even in the novel Helios was so quick to drop her pink haired ass like he literally married her… back her up or something… teach her how to deal with nobles and be her support… that would’ve been an interesting read and also buff Diana to be a better villain
