Ask away, I'm happy to explain
I smhwt agree with Juniper: the rushed through lots of lore in the beginning of the season, which I think was big mistake
They should have done like this thing that manhwas do: where they're like do lore explanation through telling the legend and smth like that
And then also translation was probably not the best
Basically
It's not suprising you're confused!
But it's really good story tho
Tho I don't know what happens beyond some point, haven't finished the novel

Ok, so in this chapter they had a scout party make sure it was clear for them to travel away from the main party. He made a lewd joke and she said let me down, so he does. Then assassins. He sends his bodyguard away with her from the fray. She was wide open and someone was attacking her, but she didn't try to run or anything. (In the novel he speeds over using his death thing and kills anyone in his way). Emperor is pissed at scouting party because... Assassins were there. He's mad at his bodyguard cuz he left her open, but he's a good bodyguard, so he gives him another chance. For her, he had to use his death thing to bring her back, because she died, stabbed pretty much in the heart. He's mad cuz she didn't fight to live.
It's not just in this chapter that I am confused though, it's everything. I have so many unanswered questions. Like what happened to that witch? What did the witch get out of that curse? Why do it in the first place? What was that first emperor's intention of making the witch curse FL? What is that black string of fate ML has? How did he get it? Just because he was born in that auspicious day? Why was that day considered bad luck? Is his curse somewhat related to the FL's curse? How can he manipulate the black thread like how he tied it to FL? Can he do other things with it? Why does that black thread take on that ghoulish form sometimes? Is it really capable of doing that? Or was it just ML's imagination? Did it really devour that other emperor's soul? Or was that just part of the imagery too? Who sent the assassins trying to kill them? Why target the FL? How the hell did the FL survive that chest stab wound? Will she also not die even if she's the one that sustained fatal injuries? I thought that only applies to when her husband is the one injured? And why the hell did ML stab himself knowing that FL gets the same injuries her husbands get? He said to reverse the curse or whatever? Was that way mentioned before? Did I skip something? Lol. I don't know if the storyline is just rushed or I got lost in translation but I feel like I need more background on everything

I have reached chapter 49 but have yet to grasped wth is happening. My confusion gets worse every in every update lmfao
