Why The King Needs A Secretary/패왕에게 비서가 필요한 이유

Yes, serek has a brain disease. In novel, Celestia portray serek as a person who has talent but no brain, so all this time the 'brain' and the reason serek become a magic officer is because of celestia's brain, as we know Celestia is a very smart person. What make him think he's superior that Celestia? Cause he have no brain and he thought that Celestia just an ordinary worker (such as a maid, or something) in the palace, not a soon-to-be emperor's personal secretary. And as we know that he doesn't have brain, he thought that being the woman the emperor favored is not any special. And he has a narcissistic tendencies. He thought that Celestia is still over him and he could win her over with smile and sweet talk as always. And as I always say, cause he doesn't have brain, he thought that the empress dowager is more on power than the emperor simply because she's in power longer than him. He (as in this, serek) doesn't know that the rope he grab is a rotten one. And you mean the bodyguard right? He's a bodyguard, but aside that his rank is a knight. As we always know, in most of this case, the knight doesn't have any right to say/do something without their employer's request/order. (Reference: princess shu, kill the villainess, the tyrant only perfumer, etc). Even when their employer is gravely humiliated, he couldn't do anything unless their employer want them to duel for their honor (reference: death is the only ending for the villainess). Cmmiw 

Ye 

Spoiler: Fate of the ExHe was executed via guillotine for participating in the empress dowager’s rebellion. He’s so shameless because while being led to the scaffold, he keeps calling out for MC to save him.  Meanwhile, MC is at that time the fiancée of the emperor and is present with him at the execution place.

When he was initially arrested with the other rebels, he was also calling out to MC and tells the guard he knows MC. MC basically responds the same way he did when he had her arrested at the beginning of the story and said he didn’t know her. In the same way now, she says she doesn’t know him. She can’t believe that she had actually once loved the man to the point of giving up her life for him. She watches the guard drag him away to imprison him until the time of execution. 

Can someone please summarise all the chapters briefly? 

 

I’m not sure since I only read the last volume. If I make a guess, it might be the fact that when he uses magic he gets the scars on his skin and possibly internal damages. I know MC says she no longer has to heal him with her power anymore. She thinks this when she was planning to quit. 

Probably the worst manhwa I’ve ever read, everything is so messy and the fuck is that secretary uniform lmao the whole manhwa is absurd specially the pace of the story 

Nah, I'm actually glad the author didn't go with the cliché ugly cheating ex-lover trope since one's actions aren't tied to their appearance after all.  Besides it's easy to hate an ugly person and see their terrible behavior for what it is, but people with good looks (especially hot guys) usually get a free pass and easy sympathy from readers just by virtue of being good-looking and having a sad/tragic past (ex: just look at every single romance story with shitty MLs or sexy evil villains, readers will defend them no matter how abhorrent their actions were).  So it's kinda great that they made a handsome irredeemable bastard for once, maybe now people would learn not to get blinded solely by their appearance alone.
