I feel bad for her to be forced in an impossible decision but I think the biggest thing that compels my dislike is the fact she came to the manor to absolve herself of her guilt. Even if that’s not her intention, and her intention is to serve the ml bc of her guilt, we can’t deny ourselves, we’re all human and I’m not mad at her for wanting to absolve herself of her guilt. I don’t like how she decided to do it bc what did she expect? If I was the ml I would’ve shot her the moment I regained my vision and went to therapy long term I think this manwha could’ve delved deeper into classism bc discussing the power imbalances in hierarchal societies could’ve been good, like the fmc wasn’t a noble and genuinely had no way of backing out without it resulting in her parents death. I just don’t like how for the ml, it’s like forgiving ur abuser. Ofc fmc isn’t his abuser but she harmed him terribly and made him go through hell via drinking and substance abuse. I hate these tropes (both ways of course) and the white saviour tropes sm In manwhas
good ass take bc tell me why so many readers are hating on him as an ml??? like bros a fucking yearner/borderline bird for fl. he took her back so easily and in the manhwa, they made it seem like he had speculations that fl was rose but it never seemed that way in the novel. but regardless yall are seeing his hatred/treatment towards the woman who BLINDED him and not his lover. its been a while since i read the novel but at least they conveyed the complexity of their situations better ig making it a tragic romance worth reading. even their "happy ending" gave me relief in a sense theyre finally both living normal lives and not in a "theyre finally together" typa way. now judging him as a person? yeah his morale def questionable despite being a war hero. if they do adapt the side stories, i like how it makes u wonder if hes, in essence, just like every arrogant noble who thinks their kindness/goodness is only deserving or worthy of bc he was described as a good guy by ppl of lower status. he also knew she was in a position of no power yet the author seemed to just brush it off after mentioning it??? that part and her decision to willingly work at the manor couldve def been written better... would easily make this story over 9.5 then imo thats why i lowkey wish the author went off of the special spin-off/side story they wrote. that plot wouldve been interesting too

FRR u worded it so perfectly I didn’t read the novel but it genuinely had such an interesting plot and I don’t even mind IF the fmc did go to serve the ml after blinding him bc she doesn’t need to be perfect she just needs to work towards a better version of herself like all of us. I just hate the lack of external accountability. U literally spoke my thoughts on the ml perfectly too
