it just makes no sense. if the king didn’t know which of the kids would save him, he should’ve raised all of them. otherwise he could accidentally kill the one that would, re: FL's first life. on top of that, he hasn’t inspired any loyalty in his children so why would any of them even want to save him? why would they want to prove themselves to him and risk death? they should've rebelled.
and why did the goddess give the king a chance to be saved? she should’ve just let him be turned to stone, he clearly isn’t remorseful for spilling blood at the sanctuary or whatever, why does he get to live?
finally, if she acted crazy it would just mean that she’s definitely not the strongest one, therefore it’d be no loss to just kill her. the "she'll die eventually anyway" thinking should've stopped when she reached her 19th birthday. like clearly she has outlived most of her siblings. also when the 2nd prince killed the 5th (i think) and she thought he was aiming for her, why didn’t he just kill her too? i don’t get why they always put it off like dw sis, ur time is coming. what’s the point?????
this manhwa is so freaking illogical it pisses me off but hot ml hasn’t had enough screen time yet so i’ll be back ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
edit: and yes, i know that she probably is the strongest in the end, so being crazy had nothing to do with it. that’s not the point. the point is that everyone's perception of her is "this princess is off her rocker, let's kill her first to end everyone's misery since there's no way a crazy person is the strongest of all of us." a generous mixture of arrogance, hubris and common sense would lead all of her siblings to this kind of conclusion.
only thing I can think of as far as the second prince's behaviour goes is that he seems to care for her to some extent and that's why he didn't kill her. how he noticed she wasn't actually crazy, how he didn't want to leave her alone with their father, how he came rushing immediately as the first prince was gonna kill the princess. although this is just my speculation and there are a lot of plot holes and stupid takes in this story for sure
i- jeksjdkdks this manga is it i am over i am finished after reading this there is no need to read anything else ever again

low key curious tho,, at the end what happened to his memo book and albums?? why did he forget her? unless he remembered her that morning and by the time they met at the park he had already forgotten... wow that’s extremely sad lemme grab another tissue
You’re the only one who commented on the epilogue. So glad about at least one person to talk to. On the memo books and albums, I too, am curious. I may need to go back and re-read. I kinda remember when he was at a low point, thinking he was ruining her future, he destroyed them. Do you remember something like that? Though this said epilogue and there was a note from the author, it’s not marked as completed.
Anyway, as a mom of a brain injured son, his neurologist said what they know about the human brain could fill a thimble. My son is now part of medical school case studies, lectures and rare recoveries. His injuries should’ve left him dead, comatose or in a vegetative state. He defied all of it. When people, especially boys, hit puberty, their brain chemistry changes incredibly.
If this story happened with an adult, my heart would’ve been broken. With a child, miracles can happen. If this is the end, I choose to believe he has either recovered or learned to live with it and have a productive life like that movie 50 First Dates.

hahaha i don’t remember it but even so, between that moment and when they introduced themselves again i thought they would have made more memos and taken more photos again. it's a little confusing and illogical but maybe it's for the sake of the touching but bittersweet ending where he forgot her completely.
i checked the baka manga updates website which said that this manga is complete with only 2 volumes, and has been completely scanlated as of chapter 13. unfortunately i think this open ending is all we get ╥﹏╥
i am so sorry to hear a bit of what you and your son have been through, and i’m glad that he defied expectations and survived. regarding the manga ending, i think with an open ending we can feel free to imagine whatever we'd like for our two protagonists. i'll be optimistic and hope that he recovers well with Sei by his side!

Thank you and I agree that sometimes open endings are the best.
