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
Not only that! He now says it was the right choice? EXCUSE ME? How does that make him so much better than his pathetic brother? That’s supposed to be a good emperor?
heh seems to reflect real life these days :(
He's as pathetic as his brother and as vile his stepmother. And the fact that the FL decided to stay with that bastard in the end says a lot about her values too. Everyone's trash
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.
I don’t fully disagree with that comment of yours tho It’s very hypocritical and disappointing.
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.
10000000% AGREED. I was quite salty about his ending
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.
Also, in the end that war didn’t even make sense. Like it was waged for no reason, wasted as they have to start the treason to get the crown anyways.
A gaggle of checker playing fools tryna mess with a child who's already a chess master know your place
The heroine being a man was not the plot twist I was expecting
HOLD UP WHAT I DID NOT REALIZE THAT AT ALL
Saw this on the homepage and instantly got annoyed. I ended up dropping the novel bc I absolutely couldn't stand the ML, there is NOTHING he could do or say to redeem himself and no one who finished the novel can tell me otherwise! He's a psycho piece of shit that WALLOWS in self-pity, bitterness and insecurities and is too much of a cowardly pussy to sink into the depressive abyss by himself, so he dragged poor Annette down with him. He put more effort into beating her down than building up his own self-esteem, destroying her sense of self-worth bc he didn't have any for himself
SUCK YA DEAD MUTHA, HEINER!
I'm not reading this but the title being a Spongebob reference has me SCREAMING
It doesn’t stop at the title

The Emperor looked dead at that low vibrational meal and told those envoys "It was made with you in mind." He can take a punch to the throat too frfr
Idk it seems like he was just trying to save face in such an embarrassing situation
And he'd still get a to the throat
I've never seen a villainess look so perfectly fucking ugly, Pina genuinely looks like someone put makeup on a dog's contracted asshole
I love how you said that.
