I love that there's finally a tragedy Historical manwha where the villainous remains a villain without trynna accidentally do good things, etc. Like roxanna.
but gawd i feel awful reading this cuz why is the whole world against fl when it was her mother who pulled all the bs, i get that ppl fear her mother n whatnot but no child deserves hate for being born, it was never their choice who their parents are,,,
i hope the mother gets her karma alongside the others for making a child go through all that and not even love her 0.1%
Yes ik she's a victim... and because of all the trauma, she does out of pocket things as a coping mech to save herself from feeling weak and lonely... ik she does everything that she has done yet to protect herself from an abusive environment...
but her position as the illegitimate child of the mistress turned empress is what dubs her as a villain, and i feel to a certain point she act accordingly as well cuz her mom taught her fear commands respect n obedience...
this is what i like abt this story... usually the other stories turn the villain into a hero... or a sympathetic character where ALL the "in-story" characters can see they're faking their mean act n love her after knowing that too soon and redeem everyone by the end....
I feel like this story will not have a redemption arc for anyone and the pacing of the villain finding her happiness is going to be a nice one, hopefully u can understand what i meant I'm bad w my words sometimes lol
Its giving "i wanna draw bl but I'm too homophobic to actually draw guys have sex" orrrr the author has some wierd trans men fetish cuz how else will u explain 2 separate stories having the same fucking plot
Try checking out this thread... ik the scene for trans ppl is not that great but I'm sure the links mentioned here aren't like this one

I'm so glad to find that most people were team corey... man my heart broke when the 1st flashback of swan came cuz i knew the author was gonn make him the main lead now....
Also the world building was a biit weak, cuz at the start of the manwha they talk abt her having a whole side business and they mentioned it a few time but pretty sure after ch50 or something that trope disappeared, and their club activities... the research they were doing was going so great n then it was forgotten for a while n then to make the black dragon exist they remembered the club again... the whole underworld thing the orange dude had going on also disappeared and where was the prince's coronation or family getting controled and/or getting released from the curse part???? and don't get me started on shuryna's family, corey's family had more screantime than them istgggg
Apart from these 4 things i really enjoyed this manwha, it was lighthearted, funny and cute <3
