And if our dear Tristan isn’t truly dead, then perhaps this is just a cruel twist of fate — a chance for him to vanish for a few chapters while Alman seizes the opportunity to get closer to the FL >:(
But it was the author who made Tristan so perfect and the best ML — and now he/she wants him to lose to Alman like this??

So, let me get this straight, you made a perfectly good ML but you chose to kill him off so that Alman can swoop in to comfort the FL who then ends up falling for him later down the road?
