Why would you ever pick the 1-star patron? The patron controls what professions you can pick and they give you more skills based in their star level. Seems like picking a good patron is way more important than just getting something strong as your starting skill.
Yeah that's why bro explained that getting a 9 star skill is not necessarily a good thing and you don't see people with a 9 star skill cuz it's very tricky. 9 star skill is overpowered but that means ur patron spirit is only 1 star, and it'll be hard to even survive as a newbie cuz ur level would be too low to even use your 9 star skill, so it's locked. But well, you can survive then you'll be really OP in the future. Just like MC, who could only get farming, fishing jobs from his 0 star patron, but he ended up getting a hidden job from an NPC instead. And he's got OP 10 star skill LOL
Chapter 27 makes me even more confused and frustrated than I was in my previous comment below. She's mad he didn't tell her anything he was working on, yet she also didn't tell him anything about what was going on with her?! This couple has zero communication skills.
Also still don't understand what's going on with the aide. Is he taking bribes or is he just bad at his job? Why would he sabotage his career like that when he was apparently very proud of his role/abilities?
I know the aide hates her, but it seems like the money issue was going on before she took over. Maybe I'm wrong about that, idk. I just remember her noticing the issue has been happening for a while.
Also it doesn't matter if the emperor already knew what she was doing. She kept it a secret from him and then got mad when did the same to her. It so stupid.
I don't understand why she doesn't mention to the emperor that the aide and the etiquette tutor were bullying her. Also I'm not sure what they think they're going to accomplish by treating her that way? She supposedly has a good relationship with the bloodthirsty tyrant emperor, so aren't they worried about being punished or killed for upsetting her? I guess they're fine because she doesn't want to complain for some unknown reason.
What? That's the end? Huh?! There was like zero resolution for anyone...?! I guess that dude got back together with his wife, but isn't she still pissed?? What?
