I so agree with you, either be executed to serve as a warning to others or take advantage of them and make rhem suffer all their lives. And I'm also shocked that fl is too soft hearted since she grew up with mercenaries, cause aren't mercenaries lawless like they are much worse since they don't follow a law and just their own desires or living for theirselves. And its impossible to not encounter atleast one mercenary thats cruel and selfish. I would rather believe she grew up with knights because of her sense of justice and ability to have empathy with her subjects...
I did say before that even though she is a knight, I feel like the ones who didn't teach her how noble life is, either you cut them off completely or you give a real good warning to them. mercy is never the best choice. because you can backstabbed without even realizing it. I wish the mercenaries actually taught her how to be cruel not evil just cruel so she wouldn't pity the bad guys.

Lol Well wasn't the male honest? the vassels were more toxic then the male lead. they trying to control who he marry, trying to take over the house. they were both honest to each other that's all to there. He isn't toxic, he knows what his so called people are like. and honestly everyone like queen this and that, but imma be honest she is to soft, they should've been executed in my opinion there nothing but idiots who trying to control a grown man he isn't toxic his a duke who has to do right by his house. you can call me wrong in the comment section but honestly you all just weak, now more trouble gonna rise lmao. this is what happen when a hero tries to save villaines and then they get back stabbed just for doing that "I can change them, I can make them better, I can make them into a good person" blah blah what a pitiful world we live in
