@SomeGuy1 Isn't it always? Or rather, considering her magical armor and the bunny version, does she really have any dignity left at this point?

So has Duroa actually ever been brainwashed? We know she's resistant to his magic to some degree, since he can't read her thoughts. She kept going to his house, but she had her own reasons, and then she justified it by being guilty. And even he seems uncertain. So either she wasn't brainwashed...

"How in the world did it turn into this?" Since you lack anything resembling leadership skills or a personality, and make ambiguous comments all the time, your underlings just do whatever they like.

So did he have Marilyn fired after he got jealous of her, or was she legit fired for being too nice and undermining the whole "let's traumatize the children as much as possible" game they have going on?

@jhs_reika An unusually rebellious child is more believable than unexplained time-travel. Especially since she grew up in an orphanage, so her backstory can make her be more rebellious. Also, in the original timeline she was left alone for days at a time, with no interaction from anyone. She...

Why did it take her 3 months to give up? The whole idea itself is flawed, "get close to him to avoid punishment" instead of "not do the thing that would get me punished since it's stupid to do it anyway". But then, the first time he behaved rudely that should have been her cue to stop visitting.

@BananaAreNasty One is a prince, and she's a disgraced duke's daughter, so she really doesn't have the rank to ignore him, especially if he starts a conversation. She's already on thin ice being sent away to the farthest territory, she can't openly insult royalty or she'll get kicked out of the...

Will's decision to wipe her memory was stupid and wrong, but he was a young kid who had just survived a poisoning attack so he wasn't in his right mind. But how is it that all the adults around him allowed it? Can a prepubescent prince just hire a wizard and tell him "I want you to wipe the...

There's something weird going on here, since her memories seems to gloss over the bits when she orchestrated events. Still, her home life was really terrible, it's better than those "heroines" who have everything and still treat everyone around them as game characters. Her powers seem to work...

Even if we can excuse his previous behavior as being "controlled", even after he was released when he visited the inn, he hurt Elaine by 'accident'. Imagine wanting to find someone to apologize, so when you see someone who looks like them you grab their faces to have a closer look and when they...

@Doenyon Well, depending on time and place, the prince could punish her for displeasing him. So it's not so much "you bullied someone of lower rank" as it is "you bullied someone I personally care about". Then again, it makes no sense that he would throw about his authority like that...

This isn't really a villainess story though? Kind of doesn't fit in the anthology. I mean, I found the little sister funny, it's a fun story, but kind of in the wrong book.

She should be alive, since "not killing servants" is the only rule. But did he really kick her out because he was jealous? Why would the author introduce such a nice character for a bunch of panels and them immediately yeet them? :(

What is Lady Eustace's play here? The safe thing for her to do is to continue her attempts to woo Wistrash, knowing now that he doesn't have the inconvenient engagement. She was going after him before, and the biggest obstacle is now removed. Instead she appears to now want to break the...

And this guy is supposed to be the male lead of the original novel? He is so short-sighted that he doesn't realize he needs the support of the duke until his daughter abandons him for cheating on her. It is refreshing to see a fake male lead admitting how he cheated on his fiancee, though. Most...

@Phylyra thanks, you said everything I wanted to say. I don't get why so many people try to defend the father, when his idea of "protecting" someone is so hurtful. It's clear that whatever hold the king has over him, the prince and him believe he can overthrow the king and he's just biding his...

@sylvacoer It's not too clear, but near the beggining of chapter 2: She appears to be eating, basically living her life normally, when she "remembers" her past life. So my interpretation is that it goes something like: she lived a life in the modern world where she was reading this novel. She...

@sylvacoer in a sense she is the real Juvel. The author mixed a few tropes, but essentially four days before she broke up with Mikhail she remembered her past life where she read a novel that matched her current life up until the moment of her death. It's not clear if the events of the first...

Kind of a dick move to screw over an entire fief to inconvenience one person. Plus, if the blackwood is valuable (and I assume it is) someone else will come along to buy it up eventually, so this is just a temporary annoyance to a noble that can cost a lot of commoners their lives. Also, "this...

@aiebime No spoilers please, but yes, I noticed there's something weird about exactly how the emperor is controlling him, and what hold he has over her since she seems unaware. Her fainting for three days over a bit of stress might also be related. @yudh08 Even if we give the duke the benefit of...
