Hsvdishdks the MC is so cute. Also to the bro that is suspicious of her, I feel bad for MC but it's granted. His guesses and suspicion is possible and until there's definite proof then can it be trusted. But like at least he doesn't seem to treat her that badly, aside from testing her here and there
At this point, duke = alive means he will continuously hunt or challenge jiwoo. The only way he'll die happily is when jiwoo looses to him.
But yay jiwoo being our smart boi and applying what he learnt necessarily and it's not just plot points forgotten (like some shows). And guestella appearing and protecting jiwoo like a mother hen, literally teleporting hum away the moment the match is decided HAHAHAH. I love how she appears every chapter, even just for one panel, for us to know yes she is very much part of jiwoo's life now.
Also, thinking about it, don't ppl ever wonder how the cat dog trio don't act like how animals would especially in dangerous areas like big fights??? Tbf some cats would probably watchover those things like a boss, but based on their animal state and breeds, it's more possible they're supposed to be scaredy cats
