he s the ml so the world of the book is gonna still make him feel smug he should have I he was still controlled by the original work. But since he is conscious he himself realized sag was wrong with his heart skipping a bit by seing her even tho he doesn't like her
Wait why did he say his heart skipped a beat when he saw her hair, if he was just gonna be so disinterested/borderline repulsed by her?
