Can someone explain some of Elco’s and Ari’s actions to me? Like, why did Ariande start acting like she didn’t know Elco when she knew he basically sacrificed himself for both her and Alphonso to keep relations stable between their kingdoms, when they met again? That would send me into a spiral if I were Elco.
I can somewhat understand why Elco resents Ari, since she indirectly caused him to be crippled/maimed, but why does he go as far as lying to Alphonso and sabotaging their relationship that badly? Is it just that he blames Ari, and this is his way of expressing those feelings?
From my understanding, he’s not upset at his sacrifice for her. He’s deluding himself with anger because he feels guilty for his love for her. He was hoping she’d kiss his wounds and love him when he stood before her, and she saw the Erie look in his eyes and felt it was better to pretend she didn’t remember him
There's kind of a cycle repeating where she learns a truth. Lashes out and damages a relationship with one of the ML's that hid part of the truth, realizes she needs the ML in some capacity and/or is forced to interact with them and or realizes that they also had their reasons for keeping secrets from her, and she then feels a little bad. I liked her personality originally and understood her actions but nows she's getting very angsty and kinda making things a little worse every few chapters.
Most people come here for the slightly toxic nature of ABO, so honestly, people bashing Junyeok is kinda funny to me. They're both toxic, and that's the whole point of the story, so honestly, I don't think the author has to apologize for the rough s*x. Especially since it's a catalyst for the story to keep going...





I'm usually ok with rushed endings cause i don't like prolonging unnecessarily, but there are literally so many unanswered plot lines and so much room for more episodes. Like, this easily could have stretched to 40 more episodes and then some. This had EXTREME potential, but I guess not :C
