You people seem to be forgetting the main reason why she thinks she came back. It was to actually serve Kael and get the justice he deserved. She gave Diana so many chances to actually rectify herself and apologize to Kael because she thought it was what she was DESTINED to do. Now, Diana is playing with Kael’s feelings again ON TOP OF her doing everything she can to bring him justice (aka the reason why she thinks she came back so to hear that he “accepted” Diana’s half ass apology, that’s why she’s stressing because she can’t do what she thinks she was bought back to life for). She is trying to make things fair for her love who DIED by these people who didn’t show remorse in the past. Like.. yes Kael has moved on but look at the big picture from her stand point. I would be mad too because out of everything I have done for you, you’re going to accept an apology that wasn’t an apology???

To me it doesn't feel like he accepted her apology, more like he just doesn't want to have anything to do with the matter anymore. I think now that he has Hestia he just wants to put the past behind him, but that doesn't mean he's forgiven her. For example, I know that personally. I used to be bullied and my bully never apologized. I don't hold a grudge against her though because I've come to terms with the past and it's no longer relevant. But that doesn't mean I've forgiven her, I just don't care, just like she does. She even asked me for advice about a job once, and even though she never apologized, she asked me years later and acted like it hadn't happened. But I think even if she had apologized and meant it, that wouldn't have changed my past, present or future, so it wouldn't have mattered to me either way, and I think Kael sees it the same way with Diana.

It’s funny how someone who was a saintess is only apologizing to the man who she drove to killing himself, because she wants things to go back to the way it was for herself and not because she is truly sorry. Even now, Diane is too immature and prideful to even listen to Helios because she think she’s alone.. whole time he’s been bending the rules for her. She took advantage of Kael and Helios and now she’s playing the victim? She wants to back to a time where both men were groveling at her feet. Like.. shes so delusional, shes literally the root of everything bad and she’s blinded by her victim mentality.

I understand Penelope is tired of everything but girl how could you just throw away Eclis away like that?????

But it's not very strong, and in earlier chapters, we can see it doesn't really work on Eclis because he has a very strong will, which undid the brainwashing. And he voluntarily worked with Yvonne despite that, all because he wanted Penelope for himself. So its only fair she abandoned him after he betrayed her like that... He literally brought the one thing she didn't want to deal with: Yvonne.

Yes that is why she can't keep him, she can't release him from the brainwashing by herself just like that, if she could she would have definitely done it.
So it would just be stupid to keep with you someone who is brainwashed that you cannot trust with you.
And he is way too toxic right now.
Bro is a lost cause

I'm sorry but did you read over the chapters blind..?
Penelope has one goal. To survive the game and get out of there. But for that she needs an ending - which she can only get when it's a happy ending since the bad endings only kill her.
Eclis was her most trusted hope as he was the nicest to her in easy mode (by that I mean not killing her 24/7). She invested everything into him and ignored everything else. But then Eclis didn't just betray her by bringing Yvonne but also tried to destroy her goals of SURVIVAL. He will never be a hope to her because he wants to do everything in his power to make her his own. But he doesn't love her, he is obsessed with her. Which is why the % will always only go to 99.
But again Penelope NEEDS a happy ending - 100% on any male lead.
And to the brainwashing. Both the brothers were brainwashed too. Derrick and Reynold both still had their own emotions. But they were tricked to believe what Yvonne said.
Meaning Derrick became even more of an asshole to Penelope and didn't believe whatever she did/said, instead believing she was doing it for attention. Reynold on the other hand knew what he did was wrong and still tried to be in good terms with Penelope. He did not harbour any hate towards her but know wants her to be his Sibling. He wants her to stay or at least be happy with her life.
This shows that the brainwashing doesn't give them new emotions but rather makes them more prone to believe Yvonne, even if it's just for a short time.
To conclude, Eclis is brainwashed but he had these thoughts by himself. He had these emotions by himself. He decided to bring Yvonne to the house and try to get Penelope to only rely on him by his decision. The brainwashing does NOT give them no fault in what they have done and Eclis has clearly shown that he does not want Penelope to be happy but only wants her by his side. As such not loving her in a lovers way but thinking of her like an object needed to posses.
I hope I could help you understand why she told that brainless asshole to die (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.).

so you expect her to keep him knowing he will backstab her again? Penelope is really at the rock bottom here she's feeling hopeless and helpless. is her commiting suicide not clue enough? fvck with him being brainwashed. and if he really care for Penelope he shouldn't be able to get brainwashed to begin with just like Reynold that snap to his sense immediately

Wow. The emperor is one of the most useless characters I’ve ever read in my life. Did he just say she didn’t see him as a father and her eyes were devoid of desire for affection? DUH BECAUSE YOU ABANDONED HER. Not him pushing his shitty behavior onto a 9 year old. Like he’s a grown man- atp, just kill him off lol
Just wishing Vikir will reveal his identity and go full hero but I get it lol. Get those hidden demons !!
