Ok so for what I'm reading from the comments, this manhwa didn't really translate the story well from novel to manhwa since there was apparently supposed to be more turmoil and nuance to both Zirgil and Kay which makes a lot of sense looking back.
Kay literally witnesses the aftermath of a woman who realized she had no power to nobility and decided the better option was to just accept his faith??? Like I'm very glad that I got the above context after reading cus I kinda thought the whole time that author only took the gravity of Kay's situation seriously for like, idk? Plot extension? Or just drama?
Now I'm not saying that bad in itself, I read this thing completely just to see if Kay was actually gonna go through killing Zirgil. Would be interesting if he actually did.
Anyways, would I recommend this? Depends on your boundaries. Rape, coercion, unwanted pregnancy, dubcon and violence are all the ones I name off the top of my head, and that's just for the main couple. Lord knows what happens to the side characters (expect Schuman(?))
Honestly I just wish they gave more info on Helena, it seems like she had more shit going on with her mother that doesn't really get resolved with anything but "nah she ded stop asking."
Evan x Alon honestly, I don't care who the IRS sends, he's been a day 1 and hasn't faltered or even thought of betraying him
Also lowkey I'm just staying so that he can finally meet all his children in person and then the grand family reunion. The gods are definitely interesting, but it would have been even better if the author didn't need to feel like every woman in the MC's vicinity had to either fear or love him romantically. Like the misunderstandings still could've happened with the underlying harem tones.

Lowkey kinda hate that the Prince only gave her a chance to be free on the day of the wedding like??? If you knew her ass wasn't in it to stay in one place AND that she didn't wanna live with you anymore and travel the world. Shouldn't YOU as the soon-to-have-been husband/fiancee just be like "I love you Alphina, how we get married so I can call you my wife but afterwards you get to do whatever the fuck you want, we're just doing this for formality and presentation for the nation, they don't need to know what goes on between us" or IDK.... "I love you Alphina, but I can clearly see you and I have different plans in life, so whenever you're ready you can come back to the kingdom with open arms" or just leave her alone...
I understand romance was a pretty big part of the story but I thought it would finally be nice to at least find that let's the FMC live an independent life while having a safe space to go home too, like damn, is that too much to ask?

Lowkey this felt like watching the snide sassy kid in your group get together with the cringe ragebaiter cus he looked nice and was always teasing her. Like they caught feelings and got together during the first year, the banter was funny and stuff...
But now you're seniors and they still have the exact same banter. In fact, you could pin point that week's drama and dialogue options based on what they had for breakfast.
Jokes aside, this manhua was cute, though I def wish they had more to talk about.
