I'm pretty sure what the author's going for with the grandfather's character is that he's suppose to be your typical patriarchal figure who's strict but fair and cares about his family very much in a traditional sort of way. The problem is that the grandfather's reacting to the family drama as if he has no idea what the hell the shit-duo has been up to despite the fact that it's practically public knowledge at this point that they're horrible people. So it comes across as either no one tells him anything and he's incapable of reading the room, or he's way too forgiving to the point of being delusional, or he's biased AF for shit-bro. None of those options make him a likable character.
I think the author is alluding to the idea that the grandfather knows something that we don't, like Daisy was saying something about how it feels like he knows the future from how he talks. So I'd have to assume that maybe he can't kick out the two shitheads on his own without consequences or the family falling or something like that
Cuz no yeah, he's very frustrating as a character and I really hate him but I'm trying to give the author the benefit of the doubt ig
Or maybe he's just written this way to strike a nerve with people who had a similarly frustrating patriarchal figure in their life that they could never please but if they fail to tie it in properly to his character, it'd be bad writing imo
Man, Gregory's self-preservation skills are worse then those of an inanimate object. The last time you insulted that guy you got stuck in bed for months. What the hell did you think was going to happen when you did it again? Right after he told you not to or he'd kill you?
I don't think that family is going to be around for much longer. The son's too stupid to live and he's going to drag the rest of them down with him.
Wait ... so the demon king killed his daughter's human lover because he hated the idea of a royal breeding with a human that much yet the demon prince thinks it's a good idea to bring the human girl he likes to a ball where his father will definitely hear about it and potentially meet her? Is he fucking stupid?
And then the father said "Do not repeat Cecilia's mistake" and then tells him he must marry a demon woman. Isn't that a ... death threat? He basically just implied that he'll kill the MC if demon prince decides he wants to marry her.
I ... actually don't mind the ML that much? Probably because I read the comments before binging all the current chapters so my expectations were rock-bottom but he was actually a bit better then I was prepared for. I mean, he has at least loved her all along and has been trying to please her which was better then I expected. The problem is his communication skills are shit and his entire perception of her is based on prejudice. Oh, and his EQ and empathy skills are non-existent. Good thing they got that body swap thing going on or he'd never understand her.
Now, I'm not saying the ML is blameless. He totally deserves to completely understand what the MC was going through and realize it's all his fault and feel like shit about it for the rest of his life. I'm not going to be happy if that doesn't happen. I am in fact eagerly awaiting new chapters so I can read the part where he puts the pieces together about the body swapping. That's going to feel so good to read.
I don't hate him, I just want him to suffer for a bit.
I get what you mean, everything turned into the FL feeling neglected and abused by him (albeit not physically) due to the ML's family to be exact, however, intentional or not, he contributed to this factor by refusing to communicate and make time for her.
I don't really hate him per se-- that goes to the FL & ML's dumb family, but the premise and how his character was built is really FRUSTRATING the heck outta me so I equally want to make him suffer due to his half-assed actions and IGNORANCE.ヽ(`Д´)ノ
Is anyone else getting just a tad annoyed with how obsessed the MC is with working? He complains about his body aching and having migraines and just generally feeling like shit but when Aresh makes the suggestion that he should take basic care of himself he acts like he was just asked to kill puppies and starts making all sorts of excuses about why it's impossible to make sure he eats three times a day and gets enough sleep. If Aresh suddenly decided that looking after him was too much work the MC would happily work himself to death within a week. Actually, he'd probably be dead even sooner than that because he'd immediately run out to get a supplement and drink it to 'feel better' just to die in agony 5 minutes later.
I can understand why someone would find him annoying but personally I kind of identify with him. Working puts my mind at ease and generally makes me feel much better. There were many times where I would forget to go on a lunch break because I was so focused on my work or because I was all like "I will go when I'm finished with this one thing I'm working on". I'm pretty sure there is a lot of people who can relate.
Camillia being locked in an empty temple without any contact of other people is going to do *wonders* for her mental health. And since it appears Kilian is now head of house I suppose she's never getting out of there.
