I'm actually annoyed by her this time. She's overreacting. But then again she thinks he will actually try to kill her still due to the storyline probably so... also Alice's visions don't help.
Still felt annoyed watching her though. Just shut up and let him speak. He never tried to explain himself before just let him speak. Damn. Before you threw your emotions at him, he called you aside so just wait and listen.
Halfway through this I was kinda hoping Nocton would give up when he got bitch slapped(basically) by the necklace. It's kind of frustrating, killing off his family and starting anew would probably be much easier than keeping everyone alive to be honest.
Because even then he could seek some salvation without the FL if all the toxic people were removed from his life.
By not killing, by that promise. He has basically agreed to live with those toxins.
But then again killing comes with a price and his reputation would be ten times as terrible.
Others might say it doesn't excuse him from being a dick.
But he thought he was controlling her in the beginning but he wasn't. Like a child wanting to see a ripple effect.
No matter what he does his life will always be on hard mode...
hate stories where the FL has to be the only source of salvation for the ML.
I wish authors would stop doing that to their male leads. It makes it an interesting story but seriously I'm beginning to get tired of this.
People like to bitch about gender equality, emotional independence is always a thing with female stories that people rejoice over. But seriously I'd like to see some from the man's end to.
It seems that he's come to reflect on how his actions actually hurt her.
Because she's the only one in his life who didn't deserve it.
His normal method doesn't apply with her, though to be honest he should have figured this out a lot sooner over those ten years, but to be honest the Fl did not help.
She should have gotten mad sooner instead of acting like a robot and tolerating his behavior that she didn't like to begin with. You can't call that true friendship. It's called being fake. Tolerating the other person in the hopes they will eventually warm up to you. She subjected herself to that behavior.
THE ONLY REASON he is changing now is because she put her foot down.
SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS YEARS AGO!
She doesn't deserve to be half as mad as she is right now, and that's just my opinion.
The younger her never questioned his actions aside from the time he didn't go to her birthday. She sucked it up. Can she really call herself his friend if she never truly made an effort to understand him? She only projected on him, she just keeps projecting.
I am relieved, he said that she is the only one who sees herself as his friend. Either because he say her as something more or not. I'm glad he realized it as well.
