Bruhhhh seduce? Where?

Seriously lol, she looks at him like a baby right now!

Honestly i understand. I remember starting to read this novel but stopping, and i just realized why. It made me uncomfortable how she was acting towards him. Here though i only see her trying to be a good person and raise him as a mother would

???? Are we even reading the same manhwa lool she ain’t seducing him, she even said “your highness if one day you find someone you love, tell me and i leave” non verbatim, but thats the gist. It’s Blake who’s catching feelings, Anicia just wants him to survive until Diana hopefully falls in love with him and save him

Hell, she doesn’t even see him as a man, and she openly ogled when he saw the Emperor half naked that she FORGOT he was even there.

If this ain’t your cup of tea well, theres a lot that doesnt start the isekai in child’s body. Such as seduce the villain’s father, la dolce vita, as you wish prince, why are you doing this duke, kill the villainess, i became the hero’s step mom, villainess maker, hero’s evil lady, shadow queen

"grown women" bruh shes a child now, she reincarnated. plus she doesnt see him that way, just a cute lil kid. if you dont like this story than leave

When you named a lotta manhwa I enjoyed and I dropped the argument to sip some tea ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~

I know she isn’t trying to seduce him but that’s the effect it’s having. I like these sort of stories but this one is making me super uncomfortable with how it’s sexualizing the children. That’s why I wanted to know how long this will go on bc I think it has potential and it would be sad if I just gave up on it in that case.

Oki, if you don’t mind the spoiler I heard something:

She gets trapped for 7 years unfortunately therefore probably they will meet again when she gets rescued and Blake (ML) is perfectly an adult, so you shouldn’t worry :3

She’s an adult and should notice the affects that her actions has on the child. It’s good that she’s trying to show him that she cares but like put some boundaries or take a step back and look over the situation.

hmmm... are you sure it’s manhwa thats sexualizing or is that how you’re interpreting it? Because imo, I don’t find it sexualizing at all. Since it revolves around the MC taking good care of the ML until FL takes him off her hands and she goes to the shadows to watch the supposedly r19 novel that she’ve read in her past life.

Tho if you must, i’d say drop this for now and come back around chapters 20++ wherein hopefully they’re grown ups now

Yes but as an adult she should notice the affects of her actions. I don’t think it matter what she thinks of the boy or the way she treats him, but the results do.

It’s great that she’s doing everything she can to make the boy happy but she should still be able to notice the affects it’s having on him. If she would take a step back and take a look on the situation and adjust it accordingly then that’s great! My problem is that the child isn’t seeing her as a mother but as a love interest and it makes me, to be frank, disgusted. Would’ve loved to see them support each other as they grew up, maybe with her as a leading role and him growing more confident and strong as he ages. Then when they’re both of age a relationship could blossom between them.

I do realize now after your and everyone else’s comments that seduce maybe wasn’t the correct word to use, I apologize.
It’s not her actions in themselves that I have a problem with, but the fact that she isn’t noticing the boy’s feelings for her. As an adult she should take a step back or make really clear boundaries. I wouldn’t have any problem with their relationship if there was only friendly and/or family (is that a thing?) feelings between them.
There are stories I like where the MC is reincarnated as a baby or a child, just not when they’re like this. Seduce the villain’s father and Shadow queen are great! :)

She’s an adult inhibiting the body of a child since she does remember her old life. It’s not the way she sees him but the way he sees her that’s my problem. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect her as an adult to notice those feelings and set up some clear boundaries.
My reason for commenting was to see if someone knew that it would get better with time, either with a time skip or some solution to their relationship.

Thank you!
Then I will continue reading this one ^v^

I didn’t read it in one sitting so maybe I’ve forgotten something but it has made me uncomfortable in many places. It generally came from unchildlike behaviors (at least in my opinion). Good for you if you didn’t have those feeling.
Someone else gave me a few spoilers so I’m going to wait and see a bit, just as you proposed :)

"It’s not the way she sees him but the way he sees her that’s my problem. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect her as an adult to notice those feelings and set up some clear boundaries."

Sure, if the scenario weren't what it is I'd agree, but this ignores the context of the story... they were already married before she reincarnated, already locked into a romantic relationship. What "distance"? Married... friends? She's a crown princess, she's expected to fulfill her marital duties. But even putting all that aside, the boy was already under the understanding that she thought he was a disgusting monster like everyone else, how exactly was she supposed to skirt his rejection issues while rejecting him as a husband while simultaneously staying married?

Both of them are in a bad situation and it might be to hard to ask of a child but maybe they could come up with some agreement concerning their marriage. I think it’s a stretch to call their relationship romantic tho, it’s a political arrangement and if there are any romantic feelings between them then it’s one sided.
I have a hard time believing that the other royals and/or the nobles would expect children as young as them to fulfill any marital duties. There’s no doubt that she would have some royal duties, like training and learning important stuff for a queen tho and maybe attend parties or ceremonial stuff.
I’m not saying that she should shun or ignore him. There must be other ways for her to treat him well that still keeps some boundaries. They aren’t even teenagers yet and again, I strongly doubt that anyone expects them to act as a married couple in any capacity at their age.

"They aren’t even teenagers yet and again, I strongly doubt that anyone expects them to act as a married couple in any capacity at their age."

...Why? It's a different time period, that they are already married rather than just engaged at that age implies otherwise. And i don't think it makes sense to say "they're just married, it doesn't mean it's romantic", political or otherwise. They're married, she can and has acted under her authority as his wife. The Emperor even just told that noble off for disrespecting her.

Maybe also keep in mind that his father loves him and as far as anyone knows, he's going to die soon from the curse. Hell, since the prince was ostracized by society because of the curse, the marriage doesn't even make sense outside the scenario in which the emperor was trying to give his son a loving wife before he dies.

I don’t think the story is meant to be in a specific time period that correlate with ours, but I’m getting 1800 or so vibes. Now I’m not super knowledgeable about history, I only know a bit about european history and more precisely Swedish history. So I’m sorry if I’m missing some example of children having a marriage that’s comparable to one between adults. Maybe if the wife was underaged it would be fine (from a historic point of view), but both of them are here. Now there’s nothing unusual about monarchs using the marriage of their children as bargaining chips and so on, but in cases where one or both of the parties are underage it’s usually put on hold until they’re of age.
Now as I said before I don’t think this story is taking place in our reality so it might be more common or acceptable here. I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear enough, but I meant that I doubt anyone expects them to act as a loving pair, that is to care deeply for each other or share a deep bond. Not that she would use her status as a wife and do things.

I admit that I didn’t think about what his father thought so thank you for pointing it out! However I find it strange that the best solution his dad could come up with was to have his son married. Wouldn’t a child prefer a good friend or two? What sort of support could they not give the boy that a child wife could? The only reason I could think of is to give his son a person who would be forced to be on and remain by his side. As a wife to the prince her position and future life could be ruined if she either betrayed or made him unhappy. The original person inside the body of the girl couldn’t handle it tho, she was a child forced into the situation against her will so no wonder she had a hard time. The king could've instead made sure that the adults working around him was supportive and found him some friends, the boy did not need a child wife.

I didn't specifically mean a time period in our reality, i just meant a different time period. They obviously don't work how our modern society works, so i assume they're in a time period where that's acceptable. Of course i was only bringing that up in response to you saying that you doubt the adults expect them to live as a married couple because that line of thought made no sense to me given the time period presented and that they're married.

Whether the boy "didn't specifically need a child wife" or not, it fulfilled the intended role. He IS opening up and more happy, so to argue "it could've just been friends" is just besides the reality we're looking at. Yes, friends may have worked too, but we're seeing that the arranged marriage did too, its effective.

Looking at the idea of friends for him: who? Everybody thinks his curse is contagious. Also, arranged marriages are a thing for royalty so it makes sense to me that the emperor went there rather than some kind of arranged friendship.

And i do think the age is probably normal for them, no one has batted an eye yet.

Sure they don’t know about our society but she does, yet she doesn’t see any red flags?

My problem with the king’s decision to give his son a wife is that I don’t understand why he would think that the girl would love or not be afraid of him. She threw herself into a pond in an attempt to commit suicide, so obviously she did not feel that way. When even the adults around him treat him with contempt and fear, how could someone expect a child to “see through” the surface of the boy? The king had them married in a vague hope that maybe a child would save his own. He can’t sit on the throne without some loyal nobles supporting him, I bet he could’ve found a child of their’s to be friends with him. They would’ve been able to explain to the child that he isn’t dangerous and they would not be forced to live with the prince. They could’ve been able to escape in some capacity, the princess could not.
The king pushed his sons problems onto a child bride in hopes of making it better. He is the highest ranking person in the kingdom, if he decided to I’m sure he could’ve found another solution.
I don’t think it’s absolutely necessary for the prince to have a friend either, what’s more important would be the adults around him. He could’ve trained new maids and servants to not fear him and been more involved himself.

This argument:

"My problem with the king’s decision to give his son a wife is that I don’t understand why he would think that the girl would love or not be afraid of him. She threw herself into a pond in an attempt to commit suicide, so obviously she did not feel that way. When even the adults around him treat him with contempt and fear, how could someone expect a child to “see through” the surface of the boy?"

Also applies to them trying to find a child to be friends with him though. You mention how she literally tried to kill herself because of his rumors, but then say this:

"They would’ve been able to explain to the child that he isn’t dangerous and they would not be forced to live with the prince. They could’ve been able to escape in some capacity, the princess could not."

As though the rumors would be any less impactful in that scenario. What makes you think he (the friend) wouldn't try to kill himself too?

And again, the entire argument you're making about friends is kind of besides the point, because betrothal, SPECIFICALLY, is normal between nobles and even more specifically to this situation: it's expected between royalty, not just normal like with nobles. What you're suggesting, that they get him a friend, makes less logical sense than what actually happened when you consider the context.

I think the scenario itself justifies what you're picking at, i can only point that out, if you disagree then that's fine. Honestly, everything has been said and i don't want to drag this on so thanks for the conversation. Bye O/

Sorry for the late reply! It was very fun so thx for engaging with me! <3 ^^

No problem :^)

She looking at him as a kid not a man she’s not doing any bad? The boy is seeing her as his wife not a grown women.he doesn’t know yet.she not even in love with the boy she trying to help u weirdo

Yeah i agree

You make really good points

Thx! Happy you agree ^^

Sorry it's been like 2 months since my comments... read my replies to other people if you want my takes on the points you bring up, if they still aren't answered write to me again (if you want my opinion that is). I haven't continued reading and my comments were made when maybe 10 chapters were out. The next time I make a statement like this I'll be sure to mention what chapter I was on! I stopped reading because of the problems I had with it (which I argue for in my original post and replys to other comments.). It might've gotten better or made some things more clearer in the following chapters, which would be great! ^^ <3

I too want to see him grow, I think he could be a good person if he only put his heart into it. I see the author trying to make us understand that he has his own struggles and how this situation is affecting him. I totally am willing to see a good man come from his rather ignorant mind if it’s through good effort.

It feels great to know that someone else feels the same way! ^^ The multitude of negative comments here irked me alot :3

I mean I feel the same way, it’s not like everybody wants to see him be a static racist character, it’s like, we don’t like him, for now yk?

Sure, it just irked me that most of the comments were negative. I wrote my comment to bring in a bit of diversity. I'm well aware that most of the people commenting exaggerate their thoughts here and it's not really representitive of what they truly feel. ^v^
