She plays lots of mind games with mc, gives her a hard time and genuinely believes she is the most beautiful and that MC deserves to stay underneath her in all aspects, has been a psycho since childhood. Bloody narcissist.
The uncle was behind MC's parents' deaths but it was Bella (12 yo at the time) who herself gave the idea of putting a hole in the boat they were in so it would sink and they wouldn't survive.
She's also very male centric, and sleeps around to get men to do her bidding.
The suckiest part is she doesn't get executed even though she fully deserves it, but on the other hand she becomes a prostitute for noble men.
Another gem with no male gaze designs and no harem!
I actually love how both the male and female characters are designed. Kara's outfit is chef's kiss.
If anything, I hate white uniforms but it can't be helped since the mages are part of the white tower. Breaks the association of white = holy/divine and is instead wind.
This my bias speaking I wish the side characters have an arc of their own like Franc did
Reading this made me feel so much discomfort (not in a bad way) because the portrayal of misogyny and patriarchy is top notch and very realistic. With the current state of world affairs right now, Gregory, Brad, MC's family are seriously triggering. Really feel bad for MC, her mom and ML. Overall a solid read!
Though I wish I came across this during season 2, would love to see some slaughter of ML's family, red haired creep, those creepy rapists and MC's family.
