I'm so happy that Astrid finally realized MC's feelings. Sure MC is labeled as sacrifice, but Astrid should see how her family treat her first.
They spoiled her, kept delaying the ritual or whatever it is, and showered her with care and affection. While the duke indeed want to use MC's mana/power to cure the land, he never do any experiment or action that could possibly hurt MC. Which, I think, played a big part on how the MC insist on staying and help them. MC could feel the warmth the Duke family gave her.
I hope Astrid will takes her time to observe the situation first in the future before taking any extreme judgement or action.
Now please move away and let your children step in again, I miss their interactions with our MC
Tho, maybe its just me with this kind of mindset, but if you can't accept the curse of that family then don't get married. You said you loved him, so maybe accept him as he is. He got cursed, its not his real self and he also might wish to get rid of it. I know another manhwa who also have the similar condition but the mother still loves their family despite their cold attitudes, maybe she can learn from her.
Also, knowing she went through a lot but still shove Tan? Maybe I have grudge, but I still can't forget her action.
In addition, it feels like she ditched the first son and try to make a "normal" one instead. Imagine if her plan goes well. I can already tell that she will ignore or abandon the first son and only adores Tan.
Again, I'm sorry if I'm such a hater but I just can't help it
RIGHTT???!! I hate how she's essentially experimenting with her second child instead of guiding her first born... like girl ure literally intelligent read a book or learn how to guide your child so that he could learn how to navigate the world despite his disability of perceiving emotions.... like??!!
I really really hope that MC really move on from the ML. Even if its just momentarily. She is a reincarnator with the mindset of modern civilian, I hope she has the moral of a person who doesn't normalize cheating (for herself, ik having a mistress is normal back then). Because if the man I love suddenly declare that he'll marry another girl and I'll be the side piece, I will def leave the relationship TwT)b
Saw comments about Lady Astrid's moral not being the best. But fr, I dislike her even more here TwT
Our MC told her a very good reason about why she wanted to stay and yet all she did was obsessed about MC's power. Even her words about Hilda kinda don't sit well to me.
It feels like she's like those obsessed villainess who only cares about power. I know it because she tried to prevent MC to get sacrified, but her respond is just weird cuz it feels like she didn't care about other people without magic at all... I mean, she is a genius, so why not try to find a solution to save both MC and her people? I'm sorry to say this, but Lady Astrid please go back to sleep. Let the Duke and your children gets character development
...Astrid throwing Tan was wrong of her, yes, and the only justification I could excuse it that the last time she saw her son he was legit a dog so she didn't recognize him.
She's absolutely not being fair to her other child, either. The kid has to default to his dad and we know he doesn't want to go through with killing MC, but will stand aside if it does happen.
I think Astrid is simply pointing out that magic is a field that you don't progress in like leveling up. Whatever power you have, you have and you just have to work within those parameters.
MC is a child sacrifice and Astrid doesn't want her family to legit murder a child. Especially since there is NO guarantee that killing this kid will magically fix the desertification. She's been studying and trying to fix the region for years. She knows her husband plans on killing MC the moment she woke up, so she took her and ran. She probably cares about the people in the region, but those people aren't bound to the land. They can move. None of it is fair to anyone. She's just doing what she thinks is right.
But idk... I think the duke and his fams slowly got better. Tho there is still a talk about sacrifice, but they lowk doting the MC. Despite not having emotion, they've tried their best.
I also kinda don't like how lady Astrid shoved away her own child just to kidnap MC. She knew that his husband actually cares about her but still choose divorce over MC who she barely knows (cmiiw, because it seems like that to me)
Yes, she is a wild and unique character, but if she ends up choosing or care for MC more than her own child... Imma drop this
it explains it more in the novel but the duke family is very strong physically in exchange for no mana and astrid know that and the reason why astrid favours our mc is because mages adore those with more mana than themselves but yeah she does treat them rough in the novel especially the duke not that he minds anyways
I find that weird as well. I dont think the author shouldve added that part. I specially cant imagine the eldest sons pain when his mother suddently just dropped and slept for years and years. And now she doesnt want him and tan? I cant imagine the pain he wouldve felt. Thats why i cant ficking stand manhwas where the family basically ignores the sons and dote on the daughters 10x more
Seriously, Garam stayed quiet for hours then blamed Jaehyuk for hanging up after, already pissed me off. But now Jaehyuk act like all those sad feelings magically disappear, really made me lost all the patience. Sure you wanna break the ice, but please let Garam feel your abscene first.
Can the author give em break? Let jaehyuk weep and Garam think? Like bro give em space, they very much need it.






Stop, please just stop making your family the bad guy in this story. You're smart and you know how they actually feel. Please stop looking at them with hatred when you know that they care about you. How can you respond like that when Chamuka said "prepare appropriate measure"? Its obvious that means he'll be sad and need to prepare his feeling on seeing his parents getting divorce ToT
The way she looked at MC with an affectionate sweet eyes and switched to hatred to her son after MC fell asleep is hurting me so bad. I really want to comfort Chamuka who had to see his own mom ,who he missed so bad, ignoring him and treating him like an object while she showered a stranger with love
