so... why tf is this crown prince dude allowed to do whatever he pleases anywhere he goes? like i genuinely don't understand it's not like they're unequal levels they are both royalty, so why is it that he can disrespect her and threaten her meanwhile she can't/won't/there are no repercussions?? i get alec is the villain but it feels like the story gets sooo fucking stupid and unreadable when he's involved.
hate to be rude, but it's been said pretty clearly in multiple chapters that his nation is bigger and has more power and a bigger army. They've said it when discussing going to war which is why they haven't.
His goal is to swallow up every other nation into his own.
Hers is still a much smaller country with not as much military power.
It's not that the story is stupid, you have just not been paying attention to the dialogue. It's not even subtext, they've said it point blank on many occasions.
That's why her hands are tied when he's around, one wrong move and he will destroy her and her whole nation.
this manhwa is a HUGEEE "trust the process" type like when they confessed to each other (basically) i was like ok this is just too much. it felt so forced and just ew ew ew. continued reading because, i spent a few hours of my life anyway what's the harm in catching up? WELP. it makes so much sense why he is in love with her. love all the characters but a bit iffy on the execution of the plot tbh.
when i first started reading this, i honestly thought it was a golden manhwa. it still is, but after about ch 55-60 everything lowkey became mush.
they started adding little details to the story that didn't matter in the end and the plot became lost especially after charlotte made a deal with the 4th floor's door.
like, i get they were trying to go for a dark, grotesque, unforgiving vibe but it sorta flopped? and looks just stupid. the plot itself is so fkn good tho and i love how they did the mansion chapters pre-corruption lol. if only the protagonist, who repeated her plan so many times to the readers, actually stuck to it lol. i can maybe defend her by saying it was out of desperation but cmon, that's just a lousy excuse.
Same! The plot at the beginning seemed so fresh and interesting but around 50 it started becoming mush. Like it’s so unbearable it feels like both of them have become so 1 dimensional? I had to stop reading at chapter 60 and let my brain heal LMAO. I also feel like the art changed to be more shoujo esque? Did u notice that too?
people are not recognizing the clear ableism that ahyeon faces at all. the reason why moondae butted in was not only to support his friend after being discouraged but also to bring attention to the ABLEISM that affects him in this series even though he is successful!!!!!
why are people acting like it's not even a big deal what she said/did? bro it was obvious ableism and even i can see that as an able bodied person
i'm glad i found this when it was already (basically) done bc there are so many cliffhanger chapters lmao. i think this story is good and mc has very redeeming (?) qualities but in all it gave me a lukewarm feeling. like, this is a 4/5ths baked manhwa.
they baited the "romance" aspect way too much. if u are interested in a romance story, this is not it. i honestly love when stories don't always have a ML/FL but come on bro. from the jump it was nudging toward that and the ending made it feel like i was being edged for 127 chapters without release
the way the author made this story almost felt like someone trying to write something that requires more intelligence than they have? i'm not sure if it's a good explanation but some things just felt too easy, too predictable, or too "try-hard" like. still love it tho.
also u can tell the author loves begging/crying men lmao, can't say i'm not the same










this is lowkey a nothing burger manhwa. every obstacle is something she overcomes in like 2 chapters and more than that, she gets recognition so easily it looks like it's just being handed to her.
this could be good if not for the increasingly mary sue shit that's making this story so boring.
