Ok then, could you give me an example of Suu being manipulated by Sahara then? I'm not saying he's a benevolent God but it's very common for fiction to describe gods as upfront and cruel, not manipulative. Never said they couldn't be, however. Manipulation requires deliberate setups and willingly feeding someone false information. Sahara has done neither, he didn't even use blackmail or threats of murder to keep Suu around. But Hwaryun and the consort both did. Trying to have a friendly discussion here, no need to be rude. :)
p sure sahara did something to suu to keep him safe while also changing him in a way that he can't live without sahara.
i hate manipulative assholes like the prince so I'm hoping this is gonna end w saharah (since he's at least honest and cares for suu), but in these webtoons the lead always ends up with the pale dude w black hair lol
so I'm not gonna be surprised if this goes sideways.
