this is terrible of me, but when adele said "no, i'd rather die"with an absolutely straight face and then popped the string and feel into the pool I FUCKING DIED,
also: FUCK YOU KUARN
also, i thought the duke might secretly love adele, his illegitimate daughter, but he's a piece of shit through and through

okay, first of all, this manhwa is super funny, and amazingly wholesome, and i loved this chapter. But can anyone please spoil me on the deal with shuli. why she resembles the late empress so much and why did johannes choose her and not literally anyone else. and what was the extent of her relationship with johannes and why does the emperor become silent when its her in question.

From what I know, it's pure coincidence that they look the same. But Johannes, Nora's Dad, the Duke, and the Emperor all used to be in love with the former Empress (Shuli Lookalike) And the Empress passed away rather quickly, and all of them loved her. Johannes had married Shuli because he saw that she had potential, she had calm demeanor, she learned fast and had her way with words. A perfect step-mother for his children so that she could become the head of house once he died instead of Jeremy, since Jeremy was still irrational. The Duke favors (not romantically) but like he sees the Empress in Shuli, so did Johannes and the Emperor, which is why all of them have a some-what soft spot for her, because it reminds them of their old days. Johannes and Shuli never had a romantic relationship of any sort. It was more like Savior and the person who was saved. They slept in separate rooms and only talked about the children, work, taxes etc. But Johannes thought that she even acted like the former empress as well. They had strong will power and never backed down from a fight and clung on to hope. Which is why he chose to rescue Shuli.

Thank you! I was actually thinking along the lines of "shuli was a long lost daughter/sister of the empress and she's really super noble so others wont belittle her anymore" but this is much better since she doesnt really have to rely on blood ties for her to gain reputation and power. Thanks again!! ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~

i think the manhwa is going way too quickly, and while i like a quick pace, but it just feels like its skimming over maxi's feeling, maxi feels way more unsure here, and is really trying she has all these feelings and everytime she thinks of asking someone for help, all the years of mental abuse weigh down on her and make her feel unsure, and she and riftan spend only the nights together but he supports her fully and he loves her,but again she is unsure of herself and feels like she will let him down, if he found out that she wasnt the elegant spoiled princess that one would think, y'all need to read the novel, i swear you wont regret it,
paulina really gives me naruto vibes, also that chubby boi is too cute ( i forgot his name)
I did too
eww so you like gold diggers
i should've mentioned "the chubby boi's cute.. so far" idk what might happen in the future but for the most part what we're shown is that he is the only one in the new kingdom who doesnt ignore pauliana just cz she's a woman, also that chuby boi will be a really fresh addition if he's not a "gold digger" because we're rarely shown romantic interests that aren't attractive, i would like an ml or fl who are representations of somewhat normal people and are not extraordinarily beautiful, like our miss pauliana, sorry i went on a bit of a rant there
Sorry if I came off a bit rude but I read the spoilers and u might want to not get your hopes up about that guy
Tell me! What happens? Is there a way you can privately message me the spoliers on this site?
Look like normal people? Well it might be regional but I'd say theres a lot of good looking people around me :)
I heard he tired to get married to Pauli’s..Is that true?? And if so did she accept and how did she figure out his true motives??
I mailed u the spoilers but idk if it worked since I never contacted someone on this site before
Send me the spoilersplease
Nah it didn’t sorry
Huh? I never sent anything to u in the first place I sent spoilers to “otaku” and “tepekun”
Okay sorry i misunderstood
