I Really liked how this book handled familial grief and how they went into the time skip. She doesn’t just forget about her bio family while she’s with her adopted family and the same for the other characters.
Had to drop it after she started dancing with the prince. This girl wouldn’t be able to stand on business even if she got paid for it.
I was convinced to continue reading it and I did a quick skim and it does get better. I still don’t like FL but atleast the characters develop a couple layers
Also, if the ML gets back his original body isn’t the kingdom gonna see the FL as a harlot who jumped from Duke to Crown Prince as a mere low noble? Like if you switched bodies at 8, you might as well stay in that body (plus both bodies are attractive so you don’t lose that much.) And ML doesn’t seem to miss his family that much so as to really need to switch his body back.
Idk the more I think about it, a switch is just gonna be inconvenient.
Not gonna lie I had to spend a solid minute admiring her after that robe drop. Hue has good ass taste and if a bitch calls Lucia average looking, Hue needs to beat their ass IMMEDIATELY.
Domain Expansion “A little chat while going on a stroll”
What’s the point of them not being together. Seo, this man has ran up and down the city for you, rizzed your mom and has helped her get her life back together in Korea. Has twisted up your guts so you wouldn’t overthink your way into a next bad decision.
I understand why the u@3 is hesitant, but it’s been a 100 fucking chapters. They are adults, well established adults. I just feel like it’s pointless to be stalling this relationship cause I’d rather them get together then have a lovers spat later on. Like ATLEAST get together now, and both of you go do some work in a progressive nation, get a citizenship there then get married!!!!
He has to be ONE of the most overconfident but swagged out ML in this entire genre. This man’s outfits cleans the plate and eats DOWN, the way he protects the FL isn’t just a ‘I’ll deploy everyone to fight for you’ but straight up ‘I will fight this battle for you, even if I lose cause I can’t live longer than you!’
He is one of the FEW ML’s that loves his son, like a genuine love and not a mini copy of him that needs to be his heir and the kid has to get his love from only the FL. Honestly, I feel like I’m glazing him tf up but he’s genuinely in my top 5 MLs for this genre cause I respect this man.
Found out his son was being abused and didn’t pull some sob story out his ass about he was neglected so he knew no better. He apologized, he did his shit to the ppl that abused his son and fucking slayed fixing that mess!!! And he’s not some cold ass ML which has no depth, we’ve seen him be genuinely embarrassed in the beginning when he thought the handkerchief was for him and not the kid.
And this man redeemed himself by straight up seducing the FL and rizzed his way to her HEART. And they show his attitude being one where he’s not some all knowing being who knows everything and we’re suppose to feel bad for him (hate this troupe as it’s just so common.) Nah, he ain’t know SHIT at the beginning, but it showed him using his Duke powers and figuring out stuff himself in a detailed way that makes sense. (When he went to the Mage tower himself as an example and didn’t wait for the solution to drop in his lap.)
And lastly, the author has my props too, when they did all of this without continuously showing us a backstory to justify all the character actions. I personally feel like the author wrote it in a way for us to sometimes connect the pieces even with the side character actions (when the red haired knight didn’t like the FL, I think his reasoning behind that was justified.) And developed both the ML and FL as characters without having to constantly use flashbacks or develop them upon each other stories like a Jenga game (as in all their developments are based solely on interactions between them, if that wording makes sense.)
So yeah, this a manwha improved the longer I read it and I no longer considered it as the manwha with the pointy noses but instead a BAMF family.
POINTY NOSE WKWKWKWKWKWKWK
Tbh, if I was translating and saw those two shitty ass names, I’d be doubting my eyes. Cause the author really flipped at random through an English dictionary for four words, and smashed them together.
Maybe it got lost in translation? I get that a lot with Chinese manhwas too, where an exact translation doesn't make sense but it does in the og language bc of Chinese characters etc... So maybe it does hold an importance in the native language but it doesn't make sense in English
It sounds like they are just very on the nose names- Kanna said that the carrier pigeons worked so hard that they didn't get a chance to be washed. So presumably they turned black. Blue stain probably has something to do with a stain that is blue.
I think whoever named them in the story may need to be given a new job though, they obviously have no imagination and shouldn't be naming things!
Backshots of doom and despair
Fantasy booktok genre titles could never
ahaha (real)
1 day to 1 minute is a bit of an overkill. I could even understand 1 day to 1 hour but to a singular minute is insane.
