i feel like penelope has had way too much trust in not only the system but also too much trust in that the story/plot lines of each boy would go as plan like the “normal mode” like i understand the original daughter is messing with things with her evil powers or whatever but you’d think since penelope had never beat hard mode she would have been waaayy more cautious in how things would go and have some sort of backups in case shit in the fan (which it has) but idk i also understand her one track mind on focusing her time and energy into eclise (or however you spell his name)
And for someone so trusting in the system how could she completely ignore the colors when the system said the coloris were more important than the numbers? She should have obsessed over getting to know what the coloris mean before anything else.
Also, I thing affection levels is a misleading name. It's more of an interest level. The prince is known to kill people so if he has no interest in you and you seem suspissious he will try to kill you. So it's based on situation ans interest. That explains why despite getting higher numbers the mage put her in danger. His interest seems to bê based on curiosity.
there’s a story here that would’ve been fun to read however they rushed right through any of the interesting and important stuff and focused waaay too long on the characters being children that reading this almost felt like a waste of time like i could’ve just read the novel (if there is one)
