@Kikaibaka when will you guys learn to stop blaming Licorice for everything pretty much everyone does? Why the fuck is Licorice to blame for what the Emperor and the others are doing? She is not the one behind the emperor, she is not the one supporting the emperor, the only thing she is trying to do is save her family from being unfairly brainwashed. Wtf is wrong with the people here in this comment section? Really now, what is happening here is this: "random mass murderer 25 exists" "This is all Licorice's fault!"
"My favorite baseball team lost, curse you Licorice!!!"
The emperor woke up because Asebi's father is a hypocrite, he had the emperor's life in his hands for the longest time and decided on doing nothing about it, in favor of his plan to punish and brainwash the entire waldecian population instead of ridding the world of the main culprits behind past events, all because of his misplaced anger and pathetic pride.
@pip25 My thoughts exactly, with each passing chapter all I see is that the Waldecian higher ups deserved being exterminated, and the people themselves were just as normal as the current civilization. It's almost obvious that Asebi's father's plan is very exaggerated and that it would affect a lot of innocent people who had nothing to do with the past mistakes, Asebi's sister herself noticed that, that he was blinded by grief and anger, this goes to show how he wasn't really in his right mind.
