on ch 5 when he was talking to chloe on her wedding, what did he mean by "compared to that, my feelings dont compare"? is he talking about how he couldnt love oz wholeheartedly cuz of his love for his family as well? also, why did chloe remove her bonnet when talking with theo in previous chapter?
it's probably already established that jinshi is the emperor's younger bro(?) or son(?) but for novel readers, why is he pretending to be a eunuch?
From what I understood, he doesn't want to be the crown prince
What Giya said plus security reasons. I bet there'd be a hell lot of scheming ministers and assassination attempts going on if he had lived openly with his identity.
Being the emperor is not a pleasant responsibility.
He doesn't want to compete for the crown, given that he is the emperor's brother, he chose to make a position within the inner palace pretending to be an eunuch to manage the harem.
i think he's pitiful, but sasya has some audacity to cling to karel after being the one to abandon him first. i get he has deep insecurities and mental issues, but isnt it a stretch to assume someone will kill ur assaulter and go to prison, all to get away from you?
ngl i felt that the chara development for harimoto was very rushed, if not random. granted, it was nice and all, but there was no buildup whatsoever.
interesting premise, but cliche and poor execution. sigh
kinda disappointed the younger bro doesn't have much of a role in the story
also, super random theory but I'm suddenly curious about the so-called monsters like the goblins. it's bc they are wearing clothes, like humans. meaning they are some kind of intelligent creatures with their own society and civilization. makes me wonder if instead of just random monsters created for the simulation, the administrators are actually just teleporting civilizations from different realms (like humans) and making them fight it out. like, what if all these "monsters" also have status windows and could level up as well, essentially players like humans, but from their POV, humans are the monsters?
also, curious if humans that reach the age requirements have to become players, and if they start at round 1 or just join everyone else at whatever round they are at.
tbh i found the prince's aide just as annoying yet more frustrating. he was just enabling his behavior and adamantly believed mc is a cunning deceiver despite all the contrary evidence.
ch. 11 is missing a page- there was supposed to be a page of beautiful colored autumn leaves before it cuts to the grandpa's memory of his deceased wife...
looool...i bet her friend was killed by the empire cuz she found out the rulers were evil or smth, and her love was framed and he isn't leaving bc he is guilty, but he's planning to rebel against the empire
the ending wasnt bad perse, they got their bitter comeuppance, but it could've been executed better. the story was a whole rollercoaster that just ended like a crash.... there was a lot of culmination that kinda fell flat bc it was too rushed
