I genuinely think this story is hilarious not because of any actions done by any of the characters but simply because they’re trying to make us think that she is a noble and good character when she’s doing the exact same shit her family did in her first life like if I wanna support her in the second life, I would have to support her family in the first life because they’re doing the exact same shit like one of her family members causes a problem. She toys with them for a bit and then kill them like it’s exactly the same. And the story trys to make you feel bad for the dead dad but if he stepped his pussy up, they would not be having this issue. Like I don’t know maybe talk to your slibings especially if you see that they’re slipping a little with their sanity because all these siblings are fucking insane and I feel like anyone can see that they spend like 10 minutes with any of them
I don’t know where you got the idea that this story is trying to paint mc as righteous or good at all, this is literally a revenge story Mc is trying to fix her household, that doesn’t mean she is tying to be a good person, it means she’s trying to get rid of her evil extended family. If anything the story truely paints her as fearsome and calculated (rashid even refers to her a cold lord) You might be misinterpreting the other admiring her strength as her being painting as a good person but theu honestly fear her strength and wish to become strong to continue to serve her. Like why she does some good deeds occasionally her focus is and always has been revenge while also trying to figure out how exactly her dad died. So yeah ofc she will mess around with them because this is her revenge so she want them to suffer just as much as she did. If you dislike revenge stories this honestly isn’t for you as that’s literally the main plot
I apologize if this was hard to read english is not my first language
I mean I think they are trying to paint her in a good light bc that is what happens like the group of people who is loyal to her as well as her halo like it’s not exactly subtle yes they fear her but they also respect and admire her for it which is a good light painting and then she’s still going to get her happy ending. It’s not that I dislike revenge stories I dislike hypocrisy
That was exactly what I was trying to say, the characters themselves see her as a good person because to them she was specifically their savior. The mc herself does not see herself as a good person because she herself knows exactly what she’s doing, it’s not hypocrisy it’s karma. The mc has never done anything bad to anyone who is not bad themselves. The depiction of her with a halo is not so the reader themselves views her as someone to revere, but depict how people who are saved can often view their benefactor as godly. I like that about this character, she is not ignorant, she does the things she does also because she knows no one else can really stop them or punish them for their crimes.
So I know everybody thinks he peed on himself. That is actually not what happened. He squirted, which composition is heavily debated to this day as some people believe it is a unique mixture of fluid, unique enough to be called his own thing while other scientist believe that it is a very diluted form of urine with some hints of semen (at least in men). But since it’s very liquidy and flows through the urethra, it is often confused for urine however, you can see that it’s not urine as it’s extremely clear without the yellowish tint reminiscing of urine and without the milkiness reminiscing of semen
Cliff please you don’t have to be like this you’re supposed to be depressed and damn near suicidal and it’s supposed to show your depth as a character. And then you’re supposed to do something else, but I actually have complaints about that so I won’t bring it up.
All bottoms should be allowed to stab/shoot their top at least once.
At the beginning I wanted him to beat the crap out of him at least once
Now that I’m finished reading it it’s just a nothing story like if you’re gonna do something like this at least go the way of jinx where you see ML downfall and his eventually redemption ark like I don’t care that some old man beat you with a bat don’t rape people like I need to save my baby he went through so much and had to carry even more
How much do we really know about the relationship of Woojin and Choi Yitae. Like we barely see Woojin when he isn’t the whipping boy of the universe like I wanna say the best chapter of him so far where he isn’t actively talking about MC is 124 and he says three lines and Choi Yitae doesn’t even speak and it’s implied that they’re on a date or something, but we wouldn’t know. Like I swear to God we’re not gonna get a side story we are gonna get one chapter and it’s going to be them being like yeah we’ve already married or some bullshit because the author would have to go back in time so far to justify them getting together because we literally have nothing like no information at all. Like we know more about the second Marie lead than anything. What’s happening with them? Maybe he should just be a triple in their relationship why the fuck not.
This is giving svsss where the author got so mad at her side couple being more popular than the main couple that she decided to fucking get rid of all of them like I’m sorry we like your characters why are we being punished?!?!
I think it’s very interesting how everybody is asking why doesn’t she just step down when they make it very clear that she ultimately does not have a lot of power over if she becomes the heir or not. She told her father opinion and then that made her brother’s life worse and if she wants to make her brother have a better life then telling her father she doesn’t want the crown is not the way.
I kinda wanted at least something to happen with taehee more then the quick hint of something at the end and I kinda like how that it shows that MC and Taehee wasn’t really good friends to each other instead of it being one-sided. If there is a side story I hope the plot is about Taehee and red heads relationship and his friendship with MC maybe repairing it but who knows
He should’ve just gave him backshots. I wanted to see it. Snow has been such a forgotten character until this moment he deserved some good backshots.
Some of y’all about to be real mad at me, however I think it’s important to point out the reason behind Raymond’s behavior is the shitty ass emperor. Like everybody says that him and his adopted brother had the same love from the emperor, but that’s clearly not true. The emperor clearly has a favorite and it’s not him. Like he told Raymond he would have to marry who he says he has to marry however, his favorite could marry for love. And you can say that’s because he’s younger however, if that was all Raymond needed, he would’ve been crown prince soon after his marriage to MC. But that wasn’t enough for the emperor. He wanted them to be in love. He literally tried to force people to be in love for his own reason and got mad when Raymond tried to push back. And now that he found out that Raymond doesn’t have any magic he’s willing to throw him away. There is no way the emperor ever genuinely cared for Raymond and that makes sense, especially when you see his behavior as an adult because he can’t regulate his emotions which is a sign of emotional abuse by the way, not diagnosing anyone with anything fyi and it’s not like this isn’t a common thing in these types of stories but it’s always crazy to see. Like I don’t go as far to say that the emperor is Raymond’s abuser however, I will say that if Raymond ever died there would be no love loss and the emperor wouldn’t skip a beat.
Now I don’t mean all this to say that Raymond is a saint either. He’s clearly awful but how much of that awfulness is a trauma response then you get into the murky lines between a victim and an abuser and that’s too much for the scope of this conversation. Because he did get forced into a marriage he clearly didn’t want and while he didn’t physically abuse his wife (such a low bar), he did emotionally abuse her (aka cycle of abuse) and let his mistress harass her. I don’t think it’s ultimately crazy that Raymond fed up with this behavior for almost 2 1/2 decades go to let’s get rid of him. I just think it’s so interesting they keep poking at him until he breaks and then blames him for all of it. It’s just very telling
I always wondered why the Emperor is so lenient on Ray, despite of everything...but considering of his actions with Erin and disregarding her opinions and feelings, there is some truth to your theory.
That and this is practically commonplace in real world history among nobles.
So is his punishment just a long way of killing him? He’s going to be forced to join the knights and then be forced to be put in a dangerous situation that they make it seem he wouldn’t be ready for.
