About the Novel and Some Spoilers Ahead
(Do not read if you do not want to be spoiled!!!)



Overall, I like how the story is going in the novel. When I heard some spoilers before, I almost stopped reading the manhwa cos my ship (Lucius x Paul) seems like it will not happen soon and there are many people involved first before they can be together. I was disappointed too.

But! The author, I think personally did a great job with this story! (Thank you so much also to all who is working on this one, I love you aaalll!!!)

I find the story to be a realistic and sweet one. You will be annoyed at times but you will really stay until the end to see how Lucius and Paul will love each other eventually (づ￣ ³￣)づ



So I was so curious about the novel (cos it seems like the manhwa is also going on the same direction). I have read it until the latest Chap- 263 and here are my opinionsa and some spoilers:

1. Lucius having 3 wives is not so bad as it looks like.

First, the marriage to the 3 ladies was only political and no love involved. More like a business matter especially during the time setting. And Pauliana had a good relationship with all the 3 wives! You can really tell that the relationship between the wives and Paul is so good- they were best friend and friends. The ladies were not bitches and they were all loyal to the emperor until the end. You will also feel sorry for the unlucky fates of the 3 ladies but those are really needed so that Lucius and Paul's relationship will move forward.


2. Flaou (or Frau) who will be Paul's gold-digger fiance is also not so bad (like the traitor elder) but he will really annoooy you especially when Paul discovered his secret!

I am not siding with Frau, okay? Just that I expected a super villain fiance (like who plans to kill Paul as soon as they are married or set her up for a false crime) but what we got here is only a supeeer selfish and stupid man. (╬￣皿￣)

Why? Although he admitted to Paul that he will marry her for her wealth (yeah Paul knew it and she liked his honesty on that), he did not disclose that he had a son with his dead ex wife who was his servant before and who he really truly loved. He decided to marry Paul so that his bastard son could be the next Marquis Winter when Paul dies in the future.

You may see him as a father who only wants the best for his son but well, he did it wrongly. Lucius and those who really care for Paul were so angry with frau that they wanted him to die.

Oh but dont worry, when Paul discovered the secret, he punished Frau by cutting his genitals (tho it seemed so brutal) but you can understand that Paul was really hurt cos she was starting to like Frau more and was really excited with their wedding. She really wanted a family with him ( T__T )


3. Lucius is reaaaaally in love with Paul! He is so consistent with his love, and he is a wise and good emperor. ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄

A. Although he married his 3 wives for political reasons, he really respected them and tried to be the best husband for them although he did not love them. He was not a lecherous emperor.

B. Although he loves Paul, he did not impose his feelings to her cos he knows that he has responsibilities to others as an emperor, and he cares for Paul's feelings. He did not want to force Paul to something she did not want. He was also supportive to Paul's marriage although he was really hurting and jealous.



AND SOOO, the next chapters in the novel will now focus on Lucius and Paul so I am really excited how will the events take placeeee! I think the unexpected accident that will also help Lucius and Paul's love story will happen soooon!!! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧


And that's all. Thank you for reading my not so short opinions and spoilers ╮(￣▽￣)╭ hahaha
