Pretty awful pacing, unless you reread from the first chapter. Which is still pretty awful but to a lesser degree.
Thank you for this not being a joke chapter! Fingers crossed she doesn't end up back with the guy.
Did they just give us a recap of chapter 1 in chapter 2?what in the actual fuck just happened?
That's disheartening lolJust read the last chapter for the WN and she ended up still marrying to this shithead of a husband, and that's an istant dropped from me. Stop writing dumb abusive ML and make the heroine not moving on from him.
so basically they suck at communication and were easily manipulatedIf you're interested in the reasoning for Julius' actions before FL goes back in time you can read chapter 19 of the LN, which is in Julius' POV. A summary from google translating the page.
Julius' family line has a monstrous amount of magical power that is not well-controlled, as a child he witnessed his father's death which was related to this magic, causing trauma. As a result he sort of just blindly follows his mom's orders, his mom reports that FL is embezzling/stealing money and is being punished accordingly. During the confrontation with FL he's confused about what she's saying and his intent wasn't for her to kill herself but threw the sword down anyway?? Google TL is very bad here. He actually tried to stop her before she did it and he and the son feel terrible about what happened
Prior to meeting FL (?), Julius finds a sword in a safe in his estate; it's a gift from another family that allows for instant death + rewinds time. Before FL dies his magic power was not hurting him anymore; he finds out after her death that Natalie healed him of his magic issues yaddayadda and he is no longer is in danger and will not die from it. He suffers from guilt while cleaning the estate of mom + servants who were actually the ones stealing money. Some years later he and the son decided to enact a ritual that involves killing themselves with the magic sword--it sends Julius back in time, so he has all his past life's memories
I'm sure there's nuance I'm missing but overall just the ol'excuseblame it on childhood ptsd and abusive parental figure
All the more reason to drop this one then.If you're interested in the reasoning for Julius' actions before FL goes back in time you can read chapter 19 of the LN, which is in Julius' POV. A summary from google translating the page.
