The hallucinations of her victims proves that Rasta knew she was in the wrong and the hallucination right before her death just shows that she didn't care. Hallucinating about dodging accountability?? A whole nut case. The only thing missing is that she didn't take Sovieshu with her

Or she's been wrong. Imagine being presented a dead child at 15 years old, she was 15 when she lost her first child. She was 16 when she gave birth to her second. She was always told she was a slave in a scum, that's why I even the people who mistreated her are in her dreams and she's asking me for forgiveness. Because she thought she deserved to be treated badly because she was born asleep. She sinned because she dreamed that she could be more than that. She just wanted to be loved and feel safe and not be used and abused

The wronged can be in the wrong too, and that's exactly Rasta's case. She wanted to be loved but used every conniving, deceitful and MURDEROUS trick in the book to obtain it. And denied it till she took her last breath. It's like Sovieshu once said: it's not that Rasta doesn't know what she's doing is wrong, she just doesn't care. And for that, I don't feel bad

From what I can remember from bits of the novel (no, I don't have the link) when Pina gets exposed at the banquet she goes batshit crazy with snot, tears and drool dripping everywhere. I'm sure the hideousness of her facial expressions are gonna be UNGODLY, so make sure you have some holy water eyedrops on hand

This feels like 25-30 chapters from the novel were forced into the last two updates. A lot of details from the novel are being left out, including significant key information and backstories.....cuz wtf is going on? Like really?? This story is all over the place, it's like reading the novel is a requirement in order to understand the manhwa

To anyone who hasn't read the novel Kael goes and returns safely, whether the manhwa will go a different route is unknown
Also, Hes saying that the novel wasn't rated 19+ is a partial lie. The novel is tagged as 'mature' and the author had no problem telling readers in full detail how Kael took Hes to pound town

That senile son of bitch instigates a WAR and all he gets is a slap on the wrist?
Where's the guillotine?? Where's the noose?? Rafelt oughta be drawn and quartered for what he's done and Carlisle is a pathetic excuse of a ruler and ML for practically letting him off the hook for everything

Hmm, I see novel as kinda different because he never agreed with that decision in it. Unlike here, WTF??? But yeah, I absolutely agree that due to that situation he is not suited to be the emperor as due to his personal feelings for his teacher he allowed everything slide no matter what he did. It was super fucked up and disappointing. I had very mixed feelings towards him due to that. Very hypocritical too. Also, very out of character for Asha to let that slide. Sir Rafelt did not deserve a good ending, and author is crazy for giving it to him. Idk, I will just call it bad writing.

Yeah, I read the chapters that parallels this part of the webtoon. Carl didn't agree with it in the novel but even in the book Giles got away with everything he did and said, smh. He even got to walk his daughter down the aisle as if he didn't treat her like a chess piece and tried to slap her when she got engaged. He should've been killed off in the end

Carlisle was against the idea of starting the war and the advisor did it behind his back (part of 53 was cut off). In 54, he's just pondering whether the ends justified the means (which obvy they don't as expressed by Asha though shes not aware currently that carlisle wasnt in on the plan). So I don't really see the manhwa as going different to the novel.
You're right that the advisor never gets in trouble though if he got in trouble now, that would 100% call into question Carlisle's newfound goodwill from the people which would be bad for everyone so it's not something that would make sense to do now.

I disagree, in the novel he understood why people around him wanted to do it that way, but he himself never called it a “Right thing to do” like here.
Also, how would punishing him be bad for Carlisle? I don’t fully understand your point here. Also, even if it was he could’ve punished him later, like at any point. Especially as an emperor, literally use the fact that he insulted THE EMPRESS as an excuse (tho that itself easily would land him a heavy punishment as well). The truth is, Giles didn’t deserve a good ending and Carlisle is crazy for letting him get away with all the shit he’s done. Also, definitely not worthy a title of a good emperor if he can’t separate his private feelings and duty when it comes to horrible crimes someone close to him committed.
I also think with how author seems to want for Carlisle to seem as this good, capable born to be ruler, it’s very out of character for him to never punish Giles for anything at all. He would’ve been my favorite ML if not for this nonsense.
That was a bitter-sweet ending
