I know she isn't called a villainess in the story, but charlize really is one of the most villainous characters in an isekai. sure other characters are master strategists and/or manipulate people, but usually to survive or to take revenge against those who have personally hurt them. charlize though, she just wants to watch the empire burn, without care for the innocents that would be caught in the crossfire. after being shown that she hated killing innocents as a sword, you would think that she would try to minimize the damage, but I guess spending hundreds of years being a tool would just desensitize you to everything. I don't even know if she still feels anything, or if she just identifies an emotion that can be used (case in point: I'm guessing she'll use dylan's love(?) for her to further her cause) I wonder if the running away part of the title refers to her gaining empathy again, and feeling guilt or if it's just that she achieved what she wanted to do so she found it useless to stick around. either way I think it's v interesting to read a character like her.
ps: the ronan males are trash, like you weren't paying attention to her until she left then you're all like "what do you think you're doing". y'all have no rights, and can f*ck yourselves thank you 😊
