omg pls thanks i was really abt to hate on the father so hard. cuz i mean most of these trash dads in isekai have at least SOME reason but its always shitty, and sometimes they dont even have a reason and just like their daughters "new personality" (and apparently suddenly showing affection makes up for like 16 years or more of abuse and neglect)
IKR??? I REALLY LIKE THE DAD. HE'S A POOR SOUL ISTG I'M GONNA PUNCH HIS HATERS.
OK I didn't read everything but now I at least know that the father isn't trash, even if he might be a bit dumb. Thank you.
I love this. Poor dad.
The poor guy literally has no control over his own body. I would stay away from my kids too if I wanted to save them.
Damn, more than Juvel, Regis is the one who needs the time travel ticket
Ikr? His life is actually more fucked up.
Actually tbh this story would be a blockbuster if it was from his pov. Just imagine the storyline with the tragedy and twists and turns. It would have been a masterpiece. We should have more reincarnation stories where the male lead is the mc.
exactly
Right?
Yeah sure, but maybe not give them a knife while they're in a prison cell, deeply distressed and under the impression that you have abandoned them to a fate of death and torture...Without telling them you're planning on busting them out. Really should have mentioned that or kept the knife.
yeah that part was kinda dumb ngl. he didnt bother to clear up the misunderstandings, but both of them were assuming something abt the other. obviously the mc's choice to kill herself in that cell was pretty reasonable since she didnt want to be tortured, and her father probs couldve explained more. but most of the assumptions she made were based off the fact that she thought her father didnt love her, when he just doesnt want to make her sad by being around her (still dumb tho but at least he has SOMETHING)
I don't know maybe there were people eavesdropping and he couldn't outright tell her the plan. Maybe. I don't know. But still all those misunderstanding don't seem like they will be cleared anytime soon.
FOUND THIS COMMENT HERE IN MANGAGO. JUST REPOSTING IT BECAUSE I CAN SEE ALOT OF HATES TOWARDS THE FATHER.

His backstory is that since he was young he was very strong and takes the Knight Commander’s title when he was young and all.
The emperor is very greedy and he wanted to use Regis (The father’s name). one time the emperor will ask him to share a drink with him, Regis was underage but couldn’t really refuse the emperor so they had a drink and when Regis was drunk the emperor will ask him for a favor and Regis just says yes because he can't refuse him and unknowingly when he said ‘yes’ he was actually swearing an oath that he couldn’t break unwillingly. When Regis found out it was too late. the truth behind the oath was the emperor’s ring. with the permission of a side, they can’t disobey the ruler of the ring. the ring only obeyed a person with the most mana, that’s why the emperor killed most of the magicians and wizards and collected their mana so he can be the person with most mana, that’s the reason that there is no tower of magicians and there’s not much wizards. so the emperor got Regis’s permission when Regis was careless and after that when he gave a order with the ring, Regis couldn’t disobey it.
Emperor used Regis to kill all his enemies and people he wanted dead.
So later when Regis succeeded the Duke’s title from his father, he went in political marriage with our MC Juvel (a nickname for juvellian)’s mother. The mother’s name was Amelia. so after Juvel’s birth, Regis was busy most of the time and didn’t even come back home at the nights. because of that the mother, Amelia was depressed and thought Regis is cheating on her and doesn’t want her and they’re daughter anymore. which was not true at all, whenever Regis was home he played with Juvel and spoiled her. they were really sweet. there was actually a reason that he wasn’t home most of the time at nights. The Floyen dukes had some responsibility to check a sealed place from time to time, the first emperor of +100 years ago was sealed there. so regis will go to check to make sure that everything is sealed and realized that someone is there, and it’s actually the sealed emperor, Phanphil (which had a backstory of his own). he was immortal or something because of magic? and he wasn’t physically there because he was sealed. but he tried to manipulate Regis to break his seal but Regis refused. but regis just couldn’t leave it alone because it could manipulate other to break his seal and so regis went to check on Phanphil every night, or from time to time(?). the other reason that regis wasn’t home often was because the emperor would use the ring on him and order him to kill enemies for him. anyway because of this Amelia thought he’s cheating and they argues from time to time. some times Regis would come after he was used by the ring, and amelia would sense that something is different about him. there is one time that emperor orders Regis to bring his weakness to him and Regis’s weakness is his daughter, Juvellian. so his body moves on its own and he goes to the duchy to take juvellian to the emperor. the emperor wanted to threaten Regis with his weakness. The emperor had some inferiority complexes and despised Regis. Amelia senses something strange and tells Juvellian to hide. And when regis comes for juvel she senses that there is something wrong with him and stops him and asks who he is, when they start arguing Juvel comes out from the place she was hiding and goes to call for servants to stop her fighting parents. but the servants ignore her and something seemed wrong. when she goes back she sees her mother’s dead body and amelia’s last words were that she shouldn’t be scared she also sees Regis soaked with blood and some servants dead bodies there. and Regis starts crying very very sadly and horribly. the small juvel thinks that her father killed her mother, and is horrified of him. on her mother’s funeral when she sees Regis she immediately screams in fear and faints and after that this happened whenever she met him. Regis can’t bear hurting her so he goes to phanphil and says that if phanphil erases Juvellian’s memory with magic he will open half of his seal. so just like that phanphil erases juvel’s memories and juvellian has no memories of her early childhood. Phanphil’s seal is not still completely open so he still can’t have a physical figure. after that Regis avoids Juvellian because he doesn’t want to hurt her. but he always loved her and wanted her happiness. the reason regis didn’t show up on her party in 1st timeline was because that day he was being controlled by the ring of the emperor. when Juvellian suddenly is lovers with Mikhail (the trash ex boyfriend of mc and original male lead of the novel) the only reason Regis was nice to him and favored him was because he was juvel’s lover and he wanted her to be happy. when Juvel was accused of poisoning the princess, of course Regis without hesitation knew that she wouldn’t do such a thing and that the emperor sill use this chance to get rid of his daughter, so he took him to the prison because it was a safe place for her and even gave her one of his greatest swords that had magic which would protect her. after that he begged his disciple, the crown prince and the ML, Max to go and protect her daughter. he was always neutral to the succession of the throne and didn’t agree to rebel with the crown prince for the throne. but because of his daughter, he promised max that he would rebel with him and help him in the succession of the throne if her saves his daughter. that’s the reason max visited juvel on the prison that day, but juvel who misunderstood everything killed herself.
after that Regis went crazy and killed everyone and destroyed everything, the emperor tried to use the ring on him to stop him but because his mental state was crazy it didn’t work on regis and he killed him too. later it showed how Regis looked at the crown and said that it doesn’t mean anything if it’s not Juvellian who is wearing it.
when later juvellian remembered her memories, she understood that it wasn’t her father who killed her mother, but it was the servants that were actually assassins from the emperor. that’s why they ignored her when she asked for their help.
so in current timeline, Regis gets a nightmare of the 1st timeline and remembers what happened then.
it was really sad that Juvellian had so many misunderstandings about him when he only wanted her happiness.
some sad stuff are that, Regis always thought about her and even referred to her by her nickname ‘juvel’ or ‘my juvel’ in his heart, he also stalked her sometimes.
the reason she went to look for marriage candidates after hearing her type, was that he misunderstood that juvel wants marriage and he wanted her happiness so he was looking for best people.
so fortunately this time their relationship slowly heals and juvel will get her memories in somewhere in
