Am I the only one who kinda understands why Soviet likes rasta( obviously it doesnt justify his trash behavior)? His own wife is so cold to him ,so rasta's cheerful personality must be very refreshing for him. During their childhood ,Soviet and navier seem very friendly with eachother , so I'm wondering when did that change ? Was it when navier became an empress and had to bottle up her emotions or was it when rasta came into the picture? If it's the 1st case ,then I can kinda understand Soviets feelings( again not trying to justify his actions). If it's the 2nd, then I feel no pity for him.
I don’t understand and I never will. Just because she was cold, doesn’t mean he should seek other women to feel that refreshing feeling again.. but I do understand your opinion
She wasn't cold she was just indulged in her duties to the point she forgot to behave as a normal girl but seeing how prince (now king) of western empire managed to draw her childish behaviour was the proof that she never changed she was kind enough to tell lettite(sister in law of trash) to chase her happiness and not drown herself in the revenge. She was sympathetic enough to cry for a bird . She helped her friend Dutchess when she was in need. How can that piece of trash (emperor) expect her to smile after bringing a mistress? He falsely accused her brother too! He just wanted a child. He never tried to understand her
(I'm sry if I went overboard)
OMG YES EXACTLY WOWBEOWNEIDB
Nah bestie you said everything that needed to be said
Yess , no matter what cheating is never right.
I actually read few spoilers from the novel and I have completely changed my opinion . Soviet is selfish and immature, who views his feelings as more important than compared to navier's
I completely agree. I also think its kind of weird he likes rashta because she is so immature at first and almost childlike, I think he enjoyed feeling as if he had saved a pretty woman in distress as it made him feel strong and capable, as if she needed him. He also refers to her as his prey in the beginning so I feel as if he wants an obedient and submissive woman, this is supported by the fact that he becomes infuriated when the empress doesn't obediently accept their relationship and challenges him. It seems as if he wants to be the only one shining brightly as he doesn't mind embarrassing the empress by flaunting his mistress. Sovieshu only cares about his own feelings and does not try to understand the empress.
I just had to comment because I accidentally liked the original poster's comment, which I don't agree with lol
It is understandable, but he doesn’t love trashta. She is only to bear his children bc the *queen is “infertile” which isn’t true, (won’t explain bc that’s a spoiler)
The emperor has what’s known as little man syndrome. The emperor started to feel inferior towards the empress and thus became busy with “work” to prove himself to be more superior. Forcing them to become more distinct. The emperor, the narcissist that he is, blames the empress telling her that she was just being cold to him which forced him to find comfort in the arms of someone else. Meanwhile it was all his doing, he just doesn’t want to admit that.
The emperor liked being with trashta because yes, she reminded him of how the empress was when she was younger, and two because she is stupid and easy to manipulate.. so she causes no threat to his ego.
It was heavily hinted that the emperor doesn’t love her as he would countlessly ignore her flirting with other men, he was more concerned with what the empress was doing. This is actually quite common in real life, often the husband or wife will feel inferior to their s/o and seek someone to make them feel good about themselves. They still love their s/o but they just want to feel “important” that’s why some people cheat.
The emperor actions are understandable, (for the most part) but not excusable.
Why is everyone freaking out ? I thought the reason why she felt like crying was coz hes being so considerate towards her . Since shes deaf, maybe she has experienced people being annoyed with her ,so him being so accommodating was touching for her.
cause theres too much smooth sailing. it cant e this easy
i thought this was the reason too !!!! is it not !?!?
I dont really understand her relationship with her brother . Does she care for him or does she want to use him or does she just want to change his future is it all 3?
I guess that's what people call " manipulative "
She does but it’s more like a manipulation counter manipulation it’s like a very toxic relationship were more like wearing off and to toxicity because she doesn’t pay any mind him in that regard he’s very cautious because she knows his antics but she views and very much like a child
I've heard so much about this manga but I'm so disappointed. This is literally a wattpad fanfic in manga form. With the overly perfect ML and the FL with the personality of a wet cabbage.The romance feels forced and abrupt since its an insta love story. It would be more tolerable if the FL had some character development so the being kind is not her only personality trait or letting the ML have some flaws coz hes too boring, but till where I've read ,it doesnt seem to be happening. I can see why people like it coz even I've fantasized about a perfect bf but I dont understand the hype around it. Of course I havent read the whole thing so please do tell me if there are any improvements. Maybe i might continue reading it.
When I first saw the cover, I instantly thought of XL joushi ( ° ʖ °).
AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
STOP!
YOU'VE GOTTA WASH YOUR BRAINS MADAME
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Can anyone explain to me how these 2 guys are involved in her ex's suicide ? I dont think its has been explained .
We'll probably see in the future
Finally a story where the dead character who kinda instigates the plot ( like they are the main motivation for the mc's actions) actually has an influence throughout the story. Most stories the dead character are mostly forgotten about after the the beginning and while be mentioned here and there. But here it's really nice to see the FL constantly think about her grandpa. You can truly feel her love and devotion for him . Honestly, it makes you as a reader also develop a level of connection to him. I wish more stories did this.
I really wanna enjoy this story coz I love cohabitation and age gap mangas but it's really hard . The FL is really annoyingly emotional,constantly running away and avoiding the ML. I dont know why every single shoujo manga has this type of character. Honestly, teenage girls arent like this ,yes we can be insecure and emotional but not to the level shoujo FL's are. It's really frustrating to read such characters and just ruins the experience,especially since it's such an overdone character troupe.
Bruh, she was never allowed to be emotional or express her emotions. Being with ML allowed her to open up more and I feel like she's allowed to have all these feelings with how she grew up.
Though I agree that alot of FLs are annoying.
This time the FL's personality and actions are justified. She learned to bottle up her feelings and never complain, "getting emotional (crying), avoiding and running away" from the cause of new discomfort or the emotion she feels is acceptable. Those emotions are new to her and she's not used to handling those ,but we see her growth and being comfortable and secure in herself and their relationship, which is also realistic.
Exactly
I love revenge stories but my heart can't too much angst . So is it a frustrating read? Or is the revenge satisfying enough to bear with the angst?
Yes 10/10
