I feel like the father doesn’t have a lot of consistency. She was a little nice to him when she got her memories of her past life and broke up with that one dude, then suddenly he wants to eat dinner with her and go shopping. Doesn’t make sense though because in the novel or whatever she had been dumped by the makhail guy and her father didn’t care or do anything. He didn’t show up to her debutante. And even when she was crying and begging for her father to believe her, he handed her a dagger and threw her in the cell. In reality even if she had her past life memories and acted differently he would only change a little. Not to that extent.
I’m like 100% sure the fact that in the beginning she was like “oh the author stopped updating the novel so I wish I could have known the ending” means
First: The father’s actions towards her was a misunderstand/miscommunication for he had always loved her. It just didn’t seem like that on our end since in that novel the perspective was on her point not his or whatever
Second: the crown prince meeting her in the shadow realm whatever was meant to save her not torture her since he yelled “Wait Stop” but she killed herself
Third: Max mentioned in his head that his teacher aka the Father, would always talk about her. You can tell that Max has known his teacher since he was young, as young as her. WHICH brings me back to my first point as in he has always loved her.
Yeah I don’t disagree that he always loved her, but even as a child when she would aproach him he would come off as cold and she would cry, it was obvious he never comforted her, and he never came to her birthdays, I’m just saying that he wouldn’t change as much as he is now when she is showing interest and affection towards him. He would have acted the same maybe even a little bit different. Still would have loved her, but not have acted like that.
No I agree that he always loved her and I also agree with the fact that the dad was gonna have the crown prince help Save her but she interpreted wrong.
But I feel like he’s being more obvious about his love now when our MC isn’t even trying if u get what I mean. Becaue in her past life she was upset about her father not being home, she tried to get his attention and she didn’t get anything but coldness in return. And if the father was always getting reports on her wouldn’t he have known she was upset or lonely without him, when he was gone. Especially when she was a child becaue she vocalized those feeling even more then ?
But at the same time this is a story so
But the thing is, the king would also controlled him. You can see how he deadass told the father say in the palace for a couple days until the assassin was gone. The king would literally hold the father back 24/7 because he knows his weakness which is the mc.
Things when he doesn’t show up to many events could be because of that reason which brings me back to how he has always loved her. The inconsistency of the past and the present can also be due to how she was the one who broke up first and then after “cried” about it.
I really hate how it didn’t elaborate on how she was a villainess, if anything it implied that she minded her own business and stayed home for like the 2 years that had any impact on her reputation. And when she ignored her family there was no reaction?? Like they didn’t say anything? Also the time skip was so annoying, like we don’t get to see what she’s actually doing, her relationship with her family that has changed because she doesn’t interact with them, and we don’t see how she was a villainess, so far there is no reason for anyone to think she’s a villainess in the story unless you want to blame her mother’s death on her.
I’m so tired of the “my mother died giving birth to me and now everyone blames me for her death” trope, I’ve seen it in so many manhwa, it’s so overused, and it’s not even the fact that it’s overused. It just literally doesn’t make any sense and usually plots like that are never executed well.
Your thoughts have merit but for the sake of fairness, according to the story the children born from a mother who died giving birth to them are considered cursed children on top of the fact that her father is very influential and loved the mother to such an extent to where that bais he has is also carried by many others. It also explained for the two years of the first te skip she did nothing but prepare to set her plan in motion which required the princess and while I agree her being called a villainess Is a little off putting coming from others but they story did provide some of a reason being her "cursed" nature and her aura described as cold like steel and an off putting feeling she gives off scares people which makes sense considering her past and power. You do make very good points, I just wanted to give the story credit where it was do.
No cause I just got spoiled, no spoiler warnings too, like what happened to putting up a warning before commenting. Basic decency. I read the novel to a little past where we are now and when there were only like 20 chapters up, and I never spoiled, it’s really not that hard. Y’all are annoying. The spoilers are everywhere on the first pages too so everyone can see them. Take them down.
I’m on chapter 119 rn and I feel like the plots gone to hell. The beginning was really good. But I feel like the part where he would dominate relics and control them has gone completely out the window. Also he has many strong relics that he doesn’t use and comes off as very weak especially when he’s fighting even though he has the tools and relics to not be. And the red haired girls character seemed cool but quickly became just a very surface level character. Also the way they transitions her into being his enemy then ally happened way too fast and not too much detail. After about chapter 80 everything became to easy for the mc. Then after a while he’s starting to seem useless because he won’t use his full power or doesn’t know how. There’s a lot of plot holes.
The female lead is so annoying. I get that she can be in more than one relationship there but she’s so contradictory. She says she doesn’t want to. She says it to one of the males leads too. And then does it. She should at least just say she will have more than one relationship and get on with it. First she went to that guys house to tell him to stop bothering her and now she’s getting with him. And the story doesn’t show how there’s really any connection or how or why she would do that. She just does cause she feels like it? Oh and she’s crying
I’ve re read this so many times and it makes me sob so hard I can’t believe he forgot about her, and omg when she said “goodbye daddy” when he tried to killer her T/T it’s really heartbreaking I’m sorry but the only way those two and everyone around them can be happy is if jannette leave the picture. Her whole existence is a curse she’s end up hurting everyone around her. And athanasia doesn’t deserve to go through all that again.
I wish the plot was a bit better. It’s extremely similar to who made me a princess. I also don’t like the characters contradictory actions.
