😂 aside from Rui’s own martial drive, being in the unbearable position of having to meet martial sages on a semi regular basis will have him get to mastery quickly just so it doesn’t feel as bad when he’s summoned

She was like this before ppd. Insecure and always feeling like she wasn’t good enough. No matter what Lith did or said she felt that way. The truth is she did marry out of her league magically speaking and has never come to terms with that reality. All the stuff she’s going through right now are just super amped up feelings of what she was already like. So while I have sympathy for her that doesn’t mean I have to like her, which to be fair, I’m biased anyway cause I’ve never liked her

Thank goodness. I’ve loved every trial but this one. If I wanted to read the bs we go throuhh in the real world I’d get a newspaper. Thank you for replying

Alright hopefully this trial wraps up with the next 2 chapters or so

How long is this portion gonna last?

Sigh. Of course it would end on a unnecessary mini cliff after terrible pacing and run on paragraphs about why Isabella is respected that lends nothing to the story but word filler. Not to mention that the next chapter is likely to switch perspectives and we’ll find out what the theme is when Atticus does. After more unnecessary descriptives or an entire chapter of Atticus walking somewhere *sigh*

Here we go paragraph after paragraph rattling on about something that could have been explained in a couple sentences

He can’t help it and moms know what those newborns look like. They’ve thought other ppl newborns looked weird and alien too, they should keep that same energy with their own spawn

Newborns do tend to be ugly though, not weird considering what they’ve just been through, but yeah that first 72 hours they just look awful.

I’m afraid even if the baby is born in the locket the spell might see it as the infant having survived the nightmare of saint ascension. I…don’t know if an infants soul can withstand even the power of being an awakened, let alone a saint nightmare.

G3 can you please put a trigger warning on the chapter if something happens to the baby? I know it’s a spoiler but after knowing Ephie and the cohort for almost from the beginning don’t think I can read that and be ok. G3 PLEASE use a trigger warning

Having caught up all the way to the newest chapters in premium this guess is…

Nothing like the last laugh of a dying monarch

She bout to get tiresome if everytime something happens she resorts to the silent treatment. I know she a child herself but she’s also a future clan leader she needs to communicate

Is this where he announces Rui as the 8th candidate

I thought he already came to that conclusion which is partially why he created it? He realized he’d need a thought intensive technique that could basically overload his martial mind so he came up with this technique, or an I misremembering?

Dawn is an actual morally grey character. The only reason she cares now is because of Acala, otherwise she has her own code she sticks to and screw everyone else.

I feel like we got 3 chapters of nothing really happening *sigh* now when u want action well likely have the next two chapters of the rest of what happened from Aurora’s perspective since it was so abruptly cut to show us Atticus making it all about him

He was thinking a lot of different things then iirc, any one of them would have been a truth
