right? He was her acting god lol. Turns out he destined ML to be with FL too lol. He's the one pulling the strings in the background. He did it all in good faith though. In the name of love? He called it 'pure love'. Manhwas never really give a different endgame for 2nd MLs sadly. But maybe he was really content having her all for himself through selfish means by reason of protecting her. That was one regression of hers and it was cruel too how she didn't really reciprocated his love in that lifetime he choose to grant his own wish.

I know ML loves FL too but the mage? I can't stop thinking about how he turned back time again and again just to save her. It also turned out he was the one who saved ML by casting many magic spells on him, which made ML this much strong. The mage deserves more.
