Beatrice - Vol. 1 Ch. 26

[wotnow]

Thank you for the chapter! I waited.. and the wait continues... the story moves slow but perhaps we see more cute moments in their interactions. Also. LOL @ whatever the heck is the deal w the antagonist but I’m guessing she will nicely set the archduke up to marry chloe..

Thank you!😁

I'm really glad they're showing his character through other's eyes and how Chloe/Beatrice is getting this info too. Give us more. First-hand experiences as well for Chloe! Let's not go the route of love yet though. Let's wait until he's a well-deserving ML.

I honestly don't get the 'he's bad because he killed her family'. Was he supposed to let them go despite it being his job to kill them? If he could've been lenient without endangering the 'greater good' they were aiming for, then sure. I'd say he's pretty fowl for not going that route but honestly, whenever there's a political structure like this, death is inevitable. (I'm always for mind games instead of complete violence.) It's unfortunate that the MC and ML's fate crosses first to be like this but they wouldn't have otherwise met without this scenario (presumably). I WOULD rather have an ML that wasn't at all like this but then we wouldn't be reading the story of Beatrice now would we?

How the author will manage to 'redeem' the ML is what I'm most curious to see. As long as I don't see something like how Ebony has turned out, I'll stay tuned to the story.
(But also, let's stop saying he's handsome Chloe. He is, despite what I have previously said, a killer.)

I can't wait to see Chloe be the badass I know she is. So smart and kind and brave 😊Glad she seems to be getting some opportunities despite being in slavery

 

[lasvis]

I keep forgetting this is a reincarnation isekai.

@roxanneayy

Its one thing to kill people in wars.
It's a whole different mather to kill defenseless prisoners.
he is not a good person by any means, but he is also not a terrible evil.

most likelly its going to go down the path of the main girl melting his frozen hearts over time.
only to then eventually have a short break up before getting together again after he or someone else finds out she lied about her name which is a crime apparently.

Dayummm. The Archduke was casually flexing his charms now and then and surprisingly, Chloe is kind of interested hoho~ I got a feeling that the "rumor" of Alejandro being gay would be kind of backed up due to his maid "that looks like a guy"...

Sorry Lady Clara~

Thanks for the update!

Thanks for the updates~^^🙏💕

yeah im in agreement with everyone else on this one, chloe conveniently forgetting the literal trauma that caused her to become a slave (and that shes a slave!) in order to fall in love with the duke... really makes no sense. i could understand any other characyers falling for him but she has first hand experience of him doing awful things?? falling for him without resolving that somehow makes him... still look like a villain, that shes got some stockholm syndrome or something, at this point it would make more sense if the ml is someone else entirely... i just wish he found out who she was and tried to make amends first, because her not being afraid solely because other people (who arent slaves or war victims) think hes nice is like, nonsensical.

 

[Kamikoto]

Anything goes as long as you're hot, amirite.

 

[Berdy]

He isn’t great, but he isn’t the worst I guess. He isn’t the worst ML I’ve read so far. And it’s a
different time period where his actions seemed like common practice. Was it necessary? Not at all.

Though I question why he spared her life, even preventing her rape. Was it because he isn’t as bad as some think he is. He’s father seems to be worse.

Anyways, they’re both dull characters. I’m enjoying the supporting characters a lot more.

Thank you very much for the update !! I love this webtoon ! c:

 

[erichanchan]

lol has she forgotten about what happened in the first few chapters? idk but it feels forced... like they're trying to brainwash us into thinking the archduke is a nice person

I mean he's not entirely bad, but the way they praise him and the way she's thinking he's probably a good person just didn't feel right to me

 

[TallyTally]

I agree with majority here. The last few chapters are weird. It's crazy what good looks can do it to you, "he's a good man". lmao. Maybe author simply made a mistake somewhere, I'm not sure. We'll definitely see melting his froze heart, turning him into the carrying person, bad boy turned good. blah blah.

 

[arorasky]

I better see some drastic character improvement for the ML or else I'm not buying "the good guy" persona of his. Also she needs to stop being so naive. Girl you saw what he did and what he could've done to you.

 

[RamenRider]

Anyone else immediately think that whole tirade at the start sounded suspiciously like he was advertising that he's totally not evil via paying off misc servants to start talking about how cool he is in front of our MC?
