She thinks of the king, her brother and herself as trash yet still defends them and values their lives. I really don’t understand why she’s putting her brother forward as the heir considering he hasn’t really matured past the 10 year old who throws tantrums to drink alcohol, and makes the servants lives hard. She also admits that the king hasn’t made a single sound decision the entire time. Why are these people on the throne?? The villain has brought up multiple times that they’re just as awful as the first king! I think it should’ve ended with them abolishing royalty or something. The villain didn’t even need to hypnotise anyone for a revolt, just telling the average peasant about their actions would’ve done it. She admits that so many servants were under the villain’s control because royalty doesn’t look in their lessers eyes.
They’re not even apologetic about it, there’s no arc or focus on trying to become better people to prove the villain wrong that they’re entirely seperate from the first emperor that hurt her, they continue to unashamedly use the privileges afforded from his misdeeds. She blames the villain for being a pushover!! Like she deserves what she got and it’s her own fault.
Instead of telling her brother to be a better person in a real and meaningful way, she just tells him to not let people take advantage of him???? Like he’s some kind of victim. He’s taking advantage of other people! That’s it, that’s emotional development he gets. Turns out the whole time he was never a pushover (previous life) it was the villain in his body so there was no reason to worry about him suddenly trying to make reparations with people.
I think they deserved what they got in their first lives. The only reason her brother is a less of a piece of human garbage is because she saw what happened last time and made a slight correction, otherwise what was the trajectory of their lives, had the villain not come to do what she did? The king gets away with treating his daughter like a stain and she lives a life of a scorned and forgotten princess??? The prince continues to harass her and the servants full time because she and her father let him?? The people of their kingdom then get a future king that’s 100% trash instead of the now 90% trash?
