Assuming Jaxx wrote the story to happen in the South, especially the Deep South, they didn’t free the slaves there until much later because the news didn’t get to them and they were still resisting. The time between the emancipation proclamation written to free slaves and them actually being freed was around 2-2.5 years.

Now creators making reaction reels to Jaxx’s tweet and the comments are all defending this insane manhwa saying it’s “always the westerners.” Well yeah it’s about western history badly written by a foreigner, I agree western fans overreact a lot, but just this once, all the loud reactions make sense. How was this story going to continue when chapter 1 wants the audience to sympathize with a slave owner after he “loses everything?”
