. Interesting plot in the beginning. I loved the whole concept that the duke was split into two and how we found out that the FL was kinda from a different dimension but not really. But the issue I see is the multiple plot holes or routes this could have taken that would have made the story sooo much more interesting.
For starters just the family background between FL, High Priest, ReRe, and the emperor its self is a plot twist that could have made this story juicier but was never expanded on. Former emperor never found out that FL is technically his cousin or the High Priest’s Grand Daughter (the daughter between the emperor’s brother and the High Priest’s daughter). And if you really think about it RERE being the daughter of the emperor (I’m side eyeing the treading of an incesty relationship between the prince and rere btw) means not only is Rere the sister of the prince but the FL niece.
The ML never found out the FL was also a part of the royal family and just blindly accepts the fact that FL and rere COINCIDENTALLY have the same illness and symptoms. FL keeping all this information to herself is hurtful as it would also provide context to a lot of things. They never tell the children their relationship or at-least to the prince (now emperor) that hey RERE is your sister but we plan to not reveal that and keep her as our child maybe??? (They gave a very vague dialogue at the very last minute to save face by having the prince call her “princess”)
Another point I would like to make. We completely forget the ML had a different side and personality. In the beginning he was cold and heartless with deep insecurities. And his other half was witty and outgoing. Once blended the ML completely changes and becomes soft but in an almost “perfect ML” type of way to the point it comes off as annoying. He does such a one 180 the story goes from having pretty descent story building to mush playful fluff with barely any true scenes that would have brought this story together more.
1 FL ML become a family without getting married and have kids out of wedlock. So how does she truly become a duchess besides just the announcement. 2. We never get those key conversations between adults to help progress the story just cuts two action scenes and “poof” problem gone in 1 chapter.
3. They have kids with what I believe no real progress to their romance. Just a family playing “house” but no confessions of feelings and just suddenly out of nowhere “lovey dovey couple” when the duke really wanted to kick FL out multiple times.
I mean they do actually explain most of these in the story although you might have missed it. But a few are:
The emperor never actually wanted Rere to marry his son, he wanted to make her crown princess so he could control her and eliminate her later and therefore hide that she was actually his daughter.
The ML basically explains that his personality split came about because he was suppressing everything, Luka was essentially his true feelings.
ML and the female lead WERE married legally, just without a ceremony. You don't need an actual wedding to be married just paperwork essentially.
SPOILER….

But oh well pretty decent story. I’m done yapping
