At this point it looks like Gjord actively gaslighting MC and pretending he is angry cause he cares so much. While if he actually cared, he would have sent more people to meet Sylhan half way. Like no way he expected the road to be easy and safe, that’s bullshit. Like I KNOW Gjord can’t be that awful and evil, but the writing around him is so constantly ehhhh.
Is no one else gonna help Sylhan escape? Nobody was sent to help him and Ishimon half way? But why? In the castle obviously it must have been one person super careful operation. But why nobody meeting them now, they obviously need help and it was predictable? What the hell, Gjord?
UPD: after reading comments,I cannot comprehend Gjord at all, considering from now things will absolutely not go according to a plan, if plan was not to get Sylhan be kidnapped again and again.
I still think ML fishy. And I totally agree with all complaints about him. “He is busy with making MC king again that is why he can’t help”. Fucking priorities? Not letting your lover be beaten, mutilated, raped>>>>>>making him a king. So what is really fishy is the fact ML really is good at spying with magic, it really hard to believe he doesn’t know what Lister did to him systematically, but if he did known and done nothing . No wonder some people had impression it will be a “ML actually only uses MC, but later he actually falls in love”. And as story goes things are not getting better.
I didn't read the novel, but based on the webtoon's context, Sylhan is a high priority prisoner. Fjord is the king of another nation. He can't just steal Sylhan away, that will start a war. If Lister knew Fjord was actively in contact with Sylhan, he'd lock him up, or worse. Likewise, we don't know how much Fjord knows about Sylhan's current situation since he's been away at war for 2+ years.
Kinda pissed of cause Khalid portrayed as wise person yet he didn’t bring a lot of guards and army with himself. Why so suicidal? What if old king was not suddenly nicer than he seems figure? When what? But overall the story is great so you can actually fell for world around love story and actually care.
He can not bring an entire army into a foreign country. That's stupid. NEVER bring an army into another country without permition. It's is illegal and a grave act of war in the real world. He is wise not to do that. It looks like he only brought one body guard which I admit is not wise, but it's just one pannel. Maybe we will see he braught more guards in the next update.
That’s so out of touch with reality. Illegal according to what? 21st century international law which doesn’t work even in our own universe? And it may even not provoke a lot of reaction. Ilya brother probably won’t start war over him with larger kingdom, he probably gonna be scared. Anyway just take for example recent stuff in entire Europe with Russians drones all over the place. No one gonna give a fuck until they start blowing up. Most countries don’t care about illegal actions or acts of war. They just wanna appease the aggressor.
So he married girl in another life, which became the reason past MC died, for the sake of the MC and I’m supposed to believe it? And after MC died Hayato didn’t even follow him in afterlife. It’s looks like Hayato just decided “welp I’m still gonna fuck this girl or whatever”. Like we didn’t even get his reaction at MC suicide, but we got couple hints he had a life with children. Did he even care? Nah this “for your sake” shit is propaganda I am not falling into. It’s one thing if ML is stupid and thinks he is protecting MC(from being poor? Whatever) but it’s absolutely disgusting to disguise his feelings as love if after MC died(because of ML betrayal), Hayato just kept living with his married life like it’s nothing. The story worked for me if Yuuma and Kaito were not reincarnations, but just being possessed or smth. Yuuma and Kaito were sweet, it’s such a pity they were stained that way. Anyway the main stuff was borrowed from this story(which is miles better) https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/koi_no_yuurei/
Bestie, did we even read the same book??????? The girl he married clearly threatened him, not only with his family business, but with Touma's family business, he was trying to protect both of them, in a way that maybe you don't consider right, but the point remains. The girl threatened him to marry her.
Just in case you missed it, the girl's family was influential that she could threaten both his family and touma's. They lived in different era, their family had business which means they could not afford to bring their family down along with them as hayato said "if only i could've more prepared". Hayato admitted he was a coward, and there is a miscommunication in which the servant/maid also regretted that she became a spirit too. As for Hayato did not follow him in afterlife, if what you meant was Hayato not possessing the reincarnation as Yuuma did, I personally interpreted it as yes Hayato had regrets, but he died accepting the reality of them that can't be together in that era, yet he firmly believed they still mean for each other in another life, he also meant to give the amulet to Yuuma. That led to the present where Kaito and Yuuma meet each other and now Yuuma is the one giving Kaito the amulet.
They were gonna elope, whatever went on with the families wouldn't affect them themselves.
One also weights gains and loses, if there's no groom and he obviously doesn't take the family into consideration, what exactly are you threatening him with? The girl can say whatever she wants, is she the sole head of the family?
And the excuse was for Touma's sake? For his sake he wouldn't have been played like a fiddle by a girl. I agree, he was a coward and unprepared to the point of believing whatever was thrown at him.
They both promised to run away together so anything involving threats to their fuckass families businesses don't mean shit, They could've just up and left but being a pussyass bitchboy hayato chose to prioritize his fuckass family business over touma, Saying he's tryna protect him, Protect him from what? The boogie man? What's the point if yall just gonna up and leave anyways, Hes clearly just being a pussy and making up excuses by pulling shit outta his ass and callin it protection, It's no surprise he got haunted since he's a fucking dumbass bro
The reason hayato pisses so many people off is cause he didn't even fucking try, He never even attempted to run away with touma despite the hardships they'd face, He just fucking gave up and faced touma with indifference and avoidance instead, That's one of the worst things you could ever fuckin do to somebody that cares for you the way that touma cared for hayato. Honestly he was just tryna protect his own ass by guilt trippin the fuck outta himself into making it out like he was doing it to protect touma. We all know his bitchass was too scared to take a hit for touma, That's why he called himself a coward cause he pussied out and he knew he pussied out and he knew he dun fucked up, Him pussing out that fucking bad just makes his love for touma seem shallow as fuck, Oh and the lack of loyalty to reject the marriage and run away like a had promised, The lack of respect to face touma in real life to talk shit out instead of leading him on, Making touma have false hope that hayato would keep his promise instead of giving him the cold fucking shoulder, and that's why his bitchass got haunted cause hes a piece of shit. My sweet summer child touma deserves someone better ong bro
Kinda was hoping Gunwoon is some Frankenstein monster, and someone controlling him. But all is left is the fact what he is indeed has suspicious memory blank in basic human knowledge. Not like he lost his mind, but like he was created in the lab or smth and never lived among humans. I just liked him being sweet pre psychoera and that he was not pretending being clueless. Don’t know if I want something to redeem him, more like take away responsibility from him, but I was hoping for the better. I usually don’t read dark romance, and I see many hope Gunwoon is more innocent. So I am gonna wait for the twist. I just hope author is not that type of person who loves to subvert peoples expectations in stupid illogical “i got ya” kind of way.
So spoil me please, from what I read in comments in next chapters Ido gonna SA Sejin, it sounds like he just absolutely didn’t care what his brother raped Sejin. Is this how it is? Cause it’s hard to imagine how could he not know. But it would be better then not caring.
UPD.Also people tell two different versions of the first life from novel. First version, Ido mocked Sejin after they found out his pregnant saying stuff like it’s his brother child or smth, and second version in which Ido already knew everything by the time pregnancy came up and was acting regretfully. Which is true?
Spoiler
Yes will
There is misunderstanding
I think when ido sa him ido asked him .. him who did .. this but seeing... was going through a lot so he .. said "I did with your brother " something as if he did it willing which cause misunderstanding and other factor triggering ido ...to sa ... but still it doesn't justify the SA but .. if only they both had been honest .... man ... well I thinking redemption arc in this manhwa is good .. fitting ...
Second is true! He never mocked the unborn child
Sejin couldn’t live with himself carrying the baby to term with the inkling that it could be that bastard’s baby..
Ido later tells him that it was their baby in which Ido bawls and Sejin just reacts to it. It’s probably gonna be a whole episode I think
