Nine has already seen how strong she doesn’t need someone constantly worrying about her. Her saying he can’t be the main lead is in a literal sense as in the book he was no where mentioned.

In the last few chapters, Melissa has been annoying me a little. It might just be because I am puppy shrimp, but I don´t like the way she has been thinking about ppl. She is upset that Nine is overprotective of her, which I understand and agree that we should address the "weak lady" trope, but didn't she do the same the first time she met Nine? She was thinking that he was weak and that he was someone she could protect (like he was, but I think the principle is similar). I also feel like she doesn't take these people as people, but more as just characters and tropes and that they don´t have actual depth, which is the case when u read the book, but not when they actually become real people. Idk just the way she said Nine couldn´t be the main lead, it felt like she was looking down on him.
In the end, I wish we actually got more out of that sword fighting lesson. I think that if we ended up with smth like if u wanna be rly good sword woman u need to find a balance between brutal strength and technique. I think it would bring smth to her character like not everything can be solved the way u do things now and u need to adapt.
