I don't know why the prince was so obsessed wanting to screw the old hag like Shu-oh wait, how old is Shuli again? She is 16, right? Damn. Now this is making sense.

16 is hardly a hag. By their standards, she's in the prime of her desirability. If anything, more people should be lusting after her.

I know. It is easy to forget her real age when everyone calling her "mom" all the time.

She's not even that much older than the two oldest of her step-children.

I noticed scanlations started up again, but I don't want to stress myself out by reading. Someone spoil what happened with the trial and the Prince and the whole guardian thing?

Thank you very much. So was the frame-up of Jeremy caused by the 2nd Empress or was it done by the Prince, allowing the Empress to take advantage of it to harass Shuli?

Thanks.
Reading the spoilers is better than reading the real thing.

Yes, the trial arc is finally over. It was amazing that Shuli's determination even won over the Empress and even had the empress to acknowledged Shuli is the perfect head for Jeremy's family.

It is great to see an Empress isn't a raging maniac who wants MC to die just because.

I loved how when the Count was getting ready to say he probably took her in because she resembled that portrait both the Empress and the other dude hurried to shut it down.

The manhwa is finally entered the darkest arc in the story. The story after the MC got killed in the first timeline. "The end of the Fairy Tale".

And any sympathy you had for her went right out of the window when realize the first chapter happened because of this.

Wow. What a dark and depressing chapter.

They changed certain things in the manhwa. In novel, it was the knight lead the assassination under the god's name but in manhwa, he didn't take part in the assassination but instead he felt remorse for not able to protect her in the end.

Translations aren't the greatest, but the death of Shuli is explained in full, making it clear the reasoning behind it was a lot bigger than expected.


Spoiler:


I personally think the changes from the novel spoilers I read do the series a lot more justice because it expands the depth.

Chapter 61 is out.

Nora is a simp.

I really like the "Epilogue" chapter. It is so dark and melancholy. I can't wait for more reactions from the siblings in the next chapters.

A Stepmother's Marchen updated again. I honestly don't know why he thought that the guy would be saved if he asked. He condemned his friend to death and knew deep down that he would be another sacrificial pawn. Then there's Jeremy struggling to cope.

The heart aches but its a good pain for me at least. She was loved. Shame they only realized what they lost at the very end.

Yeah, she was loved but she never knew about that. I guess this is a good lesson that one should take initiative to talk honestly instead of being tsundere. If Jeremy went to talk with her directly, a lot of things could have been avoided.

I kinda pitied the knight guy. Obviously, he lost his will to live anymore. Killing him would be a mercy for him at this point.

I can't pity him, the dumb knight was as hostile and cold to Shuli much like the other servants. Only at the end realised he fucked up.
Killing him would be mercy but he doesn't deserve such peace.
