She literally pulled the Spongebob/Manta Ray wallet meme:
"You like him, right?" -> Yup."
"And you cannot stand the idea of him getting with someone else." -> "Yup."
"He is also clearly uncomfortable with the idea that you like someone else. So it would be best for both of you if you just told...
->MC talks shit about the original MC that he is just "a useless guy who relies on girls for everything yet for some reason all the heroines end up falling for him"
->literally the first canon event we see is him confronting some creep who is harassing one of said heroines
There is "show, don't...
Well, now it remains to be seen if the prince actually believes what he says or is just another "I can do whatever I want because I am a prince"-type of characters.
In either case, he and his father are lucky our MC isn't French, because oh boy, do they know how to deal with nobles.
Are we going to ignore the sheer insanity that is "there is not such thing is self-defense" and "if she tried to save herself from being murdered, I would have staked my life on murdering her" on top of all the other BS?
Ms. Guildmaster really should not have left that room alive.
The problem is that there are no schemers worth taking seriously. Aside from the king himself, every single person with power in the entire kingdom is so incompetent and impotent that none of them work as antagonists.
Ask yourself this, why does Mia need to try to improve at anything, what are...
Does the prince really need to be a fucked up chimera built from every single revenge-story-antagonist trope, all done in the laziest way possible? At least decide if I am supposed to take him seriously as an evil and ruthless schemer, or laugh at him for being an incompetent cowardly fool...
It's not even good for that. Both aspects, the first wife and his childhood, just make him look worse.
"My first wife spend money that was legally hers and I could not be bothered to pay attention to our finances" says more about him than her. Finally, after she was murdered he dares to see...
@thaynii
But the Father is not constantly acting as the kings guard. In fact the only reason he was called to the kings palace was because the prince intentionally missed the killing shot. Had the prince wanted the king dead, he would have died right then and there. The only reason he didn't...
@Kynnath
From what I gathered the father cannot go against the king .
Which shouldn't matter, because the Prince can still just kill the king. But didn't. For reasons.
He wouldn't even need to flee. Everyone loves him. And everyone hates the king. I don't remember the chapter, but it was said...
@mycatisblackandtan
The only problem is that the king clearly already knows how much she mean to him, and that in the current timeline he clearly is spoiling her.
The prince could also just kill the king at any moment. He only did not because the father asked him not to. If either of them...
@ Hobnobs
With all due respect, he did not attend a single birthday of his daughter. When she wanted to spend time with him he told her to fuck off. All the maids knew just how much she was hurting. There is absolutely no way he did not know that he was hurting her.
I actually had the theory...
@Kingdo
But that didn't work. The emperor knows that she is his weakness. And he has known and used that fact for quite some time. And according to the Prince all the father every talks about his how much he loves his daughter. She in fact is supposedly the only person who doesn't know how much...
@Phylyra What exactly is the spoiler reason the Father keeps obeying the king? Because I really cannot imagine any reason that explains his past and current behaviour. In both timelines he clearly knew that he was severely abusing his daughter. So what changed the 2nd time around?
Oh fuck off.
Father doesn't get to be all doting right after it was revealed that yes, everyone in the estate knew just how much he neglected her for her entire life.
Also, can they please just already reveal just what hold the king has over her father? Prince could have killed him, Father...
Honestly, I want an omake about the original timeline. Show her fathers reaction when he learned that he drove his daughter to suicide. "Endure it" my ass, how about a single "it will be all-right" or even just a "I believe you"? Out of all mangas of this type I have read almost none give the...
