The old dude is just as rotten as his son. Hope there's not too much angst coming for our couple. Last I checked side stories are supposed to be fluffy and cute.
I can't stop myself from coming back to re-read this story. I loved it the first time I read it and I love it now.
Poor Juheon. I hope his dad got everything that was coming his way, for being such an abusive pig.
In comparison to the novel this chapter felt rushed. The scene with Viviana, his sisters and the dark gates is more expanded in the novel and shows off more of what the characters are thinking and feeling.
Right? I feel the same. A lot of details, like Asha going back to Pervaz, Carlisle demanding proper reward for her even though emperor tried to be sneaky and stingy again, emperor caring more about his wife corresponding with high priest than betraying empire, the ex royal mistress sleeping with a doctor to obtain information. So many details are missing, it was super rushed
Exactly! People who have not read the novel wouldn't get a clear picture of what is actually happening or how the characters were feeling or thinking if they only read this. Kind of sad to see so many details be rushed and cut out.
So true. Also, last chapter they made it seem like Carlisle was genuinely somewhat agreeing with causing that war to be the right thing to do which also never happened in the novel and is just messed up. I would say, also overall, the writing in the novel and webtoon of the characters is pretty inconsistent and downgrading every chapter. Like the whole war trope really lowered the quality of everything: Baron going unpunished and getting a happy ending, Carlisle letting it slide even though he was supposed to be portrayed as rational and good leader, Asha forgiving it as well even though it goes against everything she believes in, not to mention it was useless and brought nothing into the story due to rebellion happening anyways.
This story had so much potential so it’s very disappointing to see it go downhill
Were all this stuff you mentioned portrayed better in the novel ? If so then I think I should start reading that.
I recommend you do give the novel a go. It isn't perfect but it does a much better job at explaining the story, expanding on what the characters are thinking and feeling. If you want to read from the current chapter then 119 of the novel is where Asha catches Giles speaking to some stranger and confronts him, ending up with the fight between her and the prince. You can find the novel on moonlightnovels.
Yeah, it was. It definitely did, as I said, downgrade and had some bad and inconsistent writing (like that war just being straight up useless and no one ever paying any consequences for deliberately causing it), but it was still better and had more details
I couldn't agree more. At least the war trope even if it wasn't the best was much better explained in the novel. Like could it have been better? Of course. But it was a good novel to read nonetheless.
Thanks for letting me know.
Well then my dear novel readers, where can I read the novel..would you mind sharing the link ?
Just search up the name on moonlightnovels. Were currently at about chapter 120 in the novel.
Thank you very much ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
I love these two so much. Just a little bit of communication please and we'll get these problems sorted.
I thought I could change him. Firstly why would you need to change him? Is keeping him company while he grows as a person and slowly gets better not enough. Secondly that was a terrible move. Instead of talking it out with your partner and confirming if he's ready to take such a step or if it should be left behind, you drop the person into such a predicament. No wonder Inwoo said that you don't even know him. It's ok to try and help by using your life as an example but it's not ok to assume that everyone's experiences are going to be solved by the same text book example.
Can these two ever just talk it all out? Like I love y'all but please communicate more with each other.
I'm now going to let this slowly marinate since I want to read all the angst and the good ending at once without being left on a cliffhanger. It's too sad otherwise.
Same gurl!!! Samee... I stopped around 20+ chapters. But i still get updates & im still so tempted but imma hold out.
Me tooo. I want to wait till after the event.
Thank you so much to the translator for translating, as well as sharing it with us!
Also Minato is so pretty!
