I just took a quick peek, and it looks like the story is finally ending?!?! Dude, it's been way too looooonggg!!! Should I wait til the epilogue/extras are done or is it a good time to finally binge read this?
I stopped reading this a bit after the anime came out (after Zeno's powers got revealed... chapter 100... something?) because I prefer to binge read story-focused stories like these, especially since each chapter comes out monthly, so I could only take a peek from time to time... it has been over a decade tho, so I might have to start over xD not complaining haha! I missed this story TwT
I think you're free to binge read now.
Dang- too early to read comments...
Alright, based on these types of stories, I reckon the ml just doesnt want mc to get involved with his current life. Maybe he is in a dangerous or unstable situation atm OR perhaps he wants his memory of her to stay pure after he became so jaded.
Other than the typical amnesia, if this goes in a different direction, then yipee it's something new!! Still tho, I do like the mc atm. She can definitely overthink and have worries, but she is still trying her best; especially for the person she likes. I find her balanced and quite charming xD
Now we wait... TwT
you might be on to something since the title does imply he confesses to her.
It's not the first time Ive read noble turned commoner stories, but this feels a bit more believable with how the change in status affected mc.
It is quite charming to see the little decisions they take to improve their situation, like the compromises or sacrifices they had the make, and how they emphasize the effects of their change in status despite having some level of connections.
I also like the dynamic of the mc and ml, and how they are focusing on their situation first instead of romance, but I can see how these little actions add up to lead to an emotional outcome; like how mc's open support improves the ml's confidence, and how the ml's honest appreciation may help sway mc's duty-bound/logical mindset. Gaahhh the potential is there!! They're so adorable!!
Okay, I'll stop rambling. I look forward to this story's development. Perhaps I'll let this marinate if I can xD
I find throuple stories interesting because of moments liek this. Moments where two of them fight and the other has to step up and mediate. Kinda brings balance to the mix.
It's more mature and healthy for the directly-involved duo to handle their issue themselves, but it's still interesting to see this scenario nonetheless xD
The only way to make this better is if the two tops become more intimate, but hey, I dont think that's the dynamic of this particular throuple ╮(￣▽￣)╭
GAAHHHH I KNEW IT!!! While reading through, I KNEW that they will use the WHOLE chapter just to set up the meeting date!! GOSH DANG IT!!!（/TДT)/
ONE MONTH OF HIATUS FELT SO LONG!!! BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Just wanted to put a reminder that this story deals with people who are mainly driven by their emotions.
So Itoshi's words & behaviour may seem contradictory and illogical at the moment, but he is just truly backed in a corner where he is forced to face his inner past demons. Sadly, he cannot communicate well due to this, so mc is taking the full brunt of his outbursts.
Once everything calms down, hopefully he is stable enough to actually communicate about compromises/solutions. Also, talk to your girlfriend about your past!!! Maaaaannnnn, he is so frustrating, but his actions make sense so dang it...
I really love how the author portrayed him. It's also fun seeing how emotional characters can be portrayed in a story since it helps me understand their way of thinking a bit more.
YIKES!!! That must be PAINFUL to hear for both of them!!!
On another note, this is such a nice segue to Itoshi's past. It also causes them to communicate more properly since we know that Itoshi looovvees to talk about himself~ Well- SPIT IT OUT BOY!! QUIT BOTTLING IT ALL UP!!
Ahem- anyways, it's so fun to see some two birds one stone action! Clear up this miscommunication about your child and face your past demons!
Also, seeing Itoshi's expressions, other than worried, happy and angry, is sooo refreshing to see!
Is this a plot to kill off the duke so that mc can end up with the prince? Or is this a plot to cause mc to finally choose and save the duke despite at death's door?
Interesting, interesting~ latter is highly likely, but I can see the former happening for the shock value (or just author bias idk)
Ngl, I treat these official chapter updates as a countdown. Gaslighting myself with, "SURELYYY they will continue onto the next season once the official updates catch up... SO YEA!! 10 CHAPTERS LEFT TO GO!!!
