You know, it's nice to see she was planning to kill the emperor all along and wasn't just torturing the empress due to misplaced feelings, or because she couldn't touch the emperor due to his status/power. Nicina might be a B, but she's consistent and I appreciate that. Also, the emperor deserved that, get fucked bro, lmao.
Just watch the author say "they weren't JUST friends, they were best friends, like sisters", lmao.
