Right from the start when Cinderella said that the prince wasn't listening to her,
about how all those rumours are just that rumours she loves her sisters and they love her i thought
"That freak is either going to be the bigger problem in the story or he is a massive red herring"
But nope he is the issue
Going as far as looking into his wifes eyes as she pleads to
" please let me attend my oldest sisters wedding please im begging you"
And go Nope!
In that moment i knew he was the antagonist in the story because no one good would do that
I know FL is going to be the kingdoms first woman in business and politics but if Cinderella finds out what her husband did she is going to be the first woman to get a divorce
At least i hope she is gonna stand with her family over this
Dude is trying so hard to be the hero when it’s not needed, just some main character syndrome he has (︶︿︶)＝凸
Other side have a few more chapters than here and omg
Mehen / mahen getting proposed to by the father of the twins is peak i wish we had a shounen ai tag and i also wish mehen would abuse his power over the ducal house to marry the duke one paper and become mommy legally as well
I love the way that you think
Why is everyone except the main girl a psycho?
All of them seem to be somewhere between 1 - 10 on the scale at the very least
I feel ragebaited with first having her be the dukes fiancee and now not like omg i totally jumped the gun there lmao im so glad they got that sorted out but still mad at the consort (?) for even suggesting this freaking sick in the head for that fr
Im glad this is just a preview/ serialisation to get people to read the novel
Because the art style is kinda ass
But i for one am not really
The uncle was shunned by the royal family and was made to renounce his claim to the throne
(which was his birthright + he was a war hero )
All because the former was a r*cist against magic users
I bet if he was still alive when violet awakened her magic she would gotten a similar treatment from the royal family
I also get the uncle killing her mum
Yes she was his sister
But haven't we all read enough stories here where even that is no reason to forgive someone
Especially when that person knew what happened to you, how you were raised and outcast
So yeah i get him hating her
And hating her even more for when her daughter was born with magic she turned around and asked him to be her teacher
As if that wasn't the very thing he was mistreated for
With seemingly no guilt about that
Then there is the current king who only got the throne thx to the former king bullying the uncle into stepping down
Even tho the current king seems to be absolutely mid in comparison to everything the uncle has archived
+ The same thing with violets mum counting for him too
(Its even stated multiple times that the king adores violet)
So some might think
"Yeah but why not kill him then too?"
Because him and his wife being too old to make another heir
+ Him having to watch his son die slowly
Would def be punishment enough
Him having to watch his son the heir of a crown , He only inherit because his older brother was robbed off His birthright,
Be robbed of his crown himself
Is somewhat poetic in a way
So yeah i get the uncle holding grudges for more that half his life ive been mad at other for less lol
just a little thing, olivia isn't the duke's sister, i think. He is the king's brother, as far I know. (olivia would be his sister in law)
Yes, Olivia was the Duke's sister, and yes his younger brother is the current king (there was the flashback chapter where the "king" said he had two boys and a girl and the Duke was watching from afar). Not only that, they keep showing the family tree in several chapters.
Adding to this, it doesn't seem like it was a burning hatred for the sister and I'm on board with that. He himself said it was an "experiment." He wanted to make sure it would work without detection and it did, except the one person who he DIDN'T want to notice, noticed.
He doesn't necessarily need to hate his sister with a burning passion, despite what people might think. Some resentment, mixed with the clinical efficiency of a scientist, is all that's needed to cause tragedy.
I personally love this concept for the uncle. He's been to war, he's a strategist. It makes sense for him to be a bit more detached in his revenge. Having him truly hate those on the throne and simply resent others, with a more clinical approach to trying to destroy them, feels like a subtle twist on a typical cliche.
How this is a otome game isekai but we all totally forgot about the og otome game ml aka the crown prince because he literally doesn't matter lol
If mehen has a million stans im one of them. If he has a 1000 stans im still one of them. If he has 1 stan its me. If mehen has 0 stans it means I have left this world. If the world is against mehen then I am against the world
