Juheon, you are really tiring me out... Few things get on my nerves more than "I will treat you like shit and hurt you to push you away so you don't suffer (and won't tell you a thing)". Treating him him like that is probably hurting him more than whatever you try to protect him from and you deny him even the chance to choose which pain he'd rather go through. This case grates me more than others because he's doing what everyone keeps doing to Dohu: treating him like someone who doesn't feel pain. And Dohu deserves better. He deserves to be treated as a person, not like everyone in his life including his family treated him as. These years his health deteriorated to scary levels, so did Juheon's but at least his case is by choice and with knowledge of what's going on. Dohu is reaching a breaking point and I honestly want him to let it all finally out and cry, and Juheon to se and understand how much damage he's been doing.

When I met Henri for the first time I commented that he and his daughter were two peas in a pod, had the same vibe and probably the same taste in love... I CALLED IT!! She's so similar to Iruma!! And a human as well!! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

There were red flags all over him back then already. He liked her because she was broken and pretty. Predators go after her kind. He wanted someone he could tie and always have below himself. The signs were all there... His whole mindset is based on low self esteem, that's why he only got worse and worse. He saw himself in a bad place, he saw her in a worse one and that made him feel not so low. Afterwards he kept pushing her down so she'd depend on him, she was perfect because she was already isolated and alone. That's how that kind of people work. They push a little, see themselves get away, they push a little more... They can't control their circumstances so they look for someone they can control. It makes them feel important. Such low self esteem is actually sad, but never an excuse for someone to break someone else down in order to feel it less.

The art seems to have improved a little again, that's nice. Yuder without shirt is double nice

Is it actually the end? There's a "To be continued" scrolling down

She has a month left to live. Just let her spend it the way she wants... What is it to everyone who interferes? In a month no one will have her anyway... She deserves to be able to make her own choice... Don't get me wrong, I like the duke, he's adorable, and if she had more time I would enjoy him romancing her but... There's literally no time for her to get over a love and fall for another, that's just impossible. Whoever loves her should value her happiness in her last little time left over anything else. And Shinpei is what makes her happy, full stop.

They're adorable together. ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ

And then my brain piped in with... Iruma dissappearing... As in, like the previous demon king... Becoming king and going MIA as well one day... And he's a human so... He may last decades, but not centuries like demons do. So they'd think he's still alive a couple hundred years later as is nornal for demons and keep looking for him, but he'd be gone in another way already.

I actually... Don't dislike this guy as main lead? He's quite similar to her, in attitude and intelligence. He's close in age to her (middle ground between her original and current ages) while not being as childish as would be expected for someone his age, his mental age puts him in a better position than any other options I can think of. He's rude, but so is she, and he has potential for growth since he's still young. In the original timeline he was a jerk, but her cousin was too and a shift in his upbringing is already starting to make a difference. It's not unthinkable. They can jave an interesting dynamic.

You are not seeing the red flags. Their flashback wasn't cute. It was a red flag. You can see the signals that soon already. She started crying, he thought he was hurting her and should stop, AND YET HE KEPT GOING. He's always showed great potential for abuse. He holds his own desires about her wellbeing. Every time. And he kept doing in increasingly abusive ways. He'd push a little, saw she took it, and the pushed more. It's manual starting of a toxic dynamic.

And you can see the end of that slippery slope here in his current thoughts. He hurts her because he knows he'll face no consecuences. He hurts her to weaken her so she won't leave him. He hurts her because he likes her hurt and dependent on him. He likes her beaten down, and he did back then already. He liked her because she was hurt. He wanted her and took advantage of her being in the low.

He always have, and always will want her more than he loves her.

But I don't see it that way.

The whole flashback is about him holding his own desires above her wellbeing. Even in their first time there was the red flag of him not stopping after she started crying (we read him hating himself for it, but HE. STILL. KEEPS. DOING IT). I think that's actually the point. That even at his sweetest he was still greedy and selfish. He wanted her more than he loved her. Everyone says that they don't get how he could change so much... But there we have the seed of everything. She endured because she loved him, but it was still a red flag. She's naturally self-sacrificing... And he learnt that he could be as selfish as he wanted and she'd take it. And he ran with that.
