THIS! He's so fucking delusional, I can understand that in their past life he was deceived by the "saintess" and teleported to a world with no one on his side, so when he began to love "Irene" he wanted her presence to reassure him (and probably did that because he knew the "saintess" bullying) BUT TO IGNORE ALL HER SUFFERING LIKE THAT AND INSIST??? Nah, fuck this guy
I am enjoying the story but every time he is like "My wife" I'm like sir what relationship do you think you had? In ch. 21 where he imagines them hugging, I was like when. I feel like his perception of their relationship is clouded by his guiding lust. It seems heavily implied that he was very forceful in their intimacy and she did not get enjoyment from it. He seems to only take and not give. I don't think he knows his wife that much. It is like he made up a lovely relationship because he got so much out of it while she got nothing.
I hope we get a good second lead that makes him see the difference in how he treated his wife or her at least yelling at him about her true feelings. I also want her to further reflect on their relationship.
The worst part is, she already expressed her dislike and he ignored it. He will only understand if someone ELSE tells him, and that's maddening
I wonder what will happen when she interacts with the crown prince. I find it interesting that she seems to be able to guide other espers since she affects the ML's brother. I wonder if the bond is only responsive on his part and not hers.
Ohhh you are right!! Perhaps because it's not her body? The ML is still the same person, but she entered Irene's body
OH that makes sense but idk I feel these things have to do with souls usually. I wonder if she is going to have to choose to choose him or something dramatic like that. I wonder if there are any other espers besides the ML, his brother, and the crown prince since there are other guides. I wonder if a guide is born for each esper.
From what I understood, in this guideverse, the bond only restric the esper, something like in the relationship the esper is the one that ends up with the exclusive guide but the guide isn't exclusive to the esper
Damn, how one-sided
so what your saying is my toxic ass is going to get to see the ML a groveling jealous mess.(▰˘◡˘▰)
I feel like the FL and ML have such different perspectives of what their marriage was like. She shows it as being her having a one-sided love for him and him treating her cold and harsh. It seems she feels like to him she was something that he used to deal with his pain never showing her love. Didn't he ignore her and make her stay in their house all the time? The ML on the other hand talks about loving her and wanting her. He shows jealousy but he never talks about how their actual relationship was. I want to see a scene of his perspective of their prior life. I hope we get a scene where she calls him out for his past behavior I want this man to grovel.
