What a cool chapter. Thanks for the translation!
Sometimes, even if we're truly sorry, you can't magically gain the forgiveness of others, and that's fine. All you gotta do is take that shame with you as a lesson for yourself.
also the copy woman really shouldnt win, she literally fed her in chatgpt without any changes and maybe even created this clone on pre assumptions and not her real life experience.
nothing could beat the original unless your clone actually surpassed it in some ways, which doesnt seem to be the case
The relationship development between Aria and the princess doesn't feel believable. One chapter they meet, the next they're "kindred spirits" like, no.
I know these people exist in real life, where they act like "why didn't you save me too" or "why didn't you save me earlier" but I still can't help but be frustrated at this common trope in writing.
