The Careful Empress

+1 on these. Fully agree on you here sir/madam.... 

Difference is that the knight legitimately felt guilty for her actions and spent her life atoning for. And mir did try to kill her a few times. She didnt forgive him easily

Compared to the fuckboi red dragon he felt no once of guilt  all.  I dont think hes the ML at all.  And lol who cares if he views humans as dogs. To mir those dogs were the first people who showed her love. And he slaughters them like the asshole he is. Thankfully mir has no feelings for him at all so far in the raws and legitimately detests him. Shes keeping hin alive do he can suffer

I hope he gets what's coming to him.  I hope he falls in love with her only for her to chop  of his head

Would be dope 

oh well i guess im dropping this. Well unless azar is actually the ML then i will read it again. I just dont like the blonde dude cant stand him. plus reading something that i know i will hate in the end gives me no pleasure. 

I feel like you people are overthinking it. If you have noticed, these dragons are just dragons with a five years old's mentality (and obviously non-human logic), brash attitude, and really really strong... and when they trust someone, they'll place their hope in you and kind of rely on you. I find the female lead and red dragon similar yet different at the same time. They both got attached to a human and always looked forward for them and they both got betrayed. The white dragon got her relief because the knight mourned for her death but poor red dragon was just used, made a really really huge mistake, and is at the moment under torture.

I can feel there's a conspiracy behind this but I am not sure if I still want to continue reading it. As much as I don't really like the red dragon, I pity him and can't bear to hate him and it will really hurt me to see him suffering and wanting to die but can't get what he wants and at the same time still not exactly liking him. That freaking conflict which I figured the author might be aiming for but I read to destress not to stress so if I feel like my life is too relaxed, I'd read it then. 

But here, there's no downfall of humanity just a profecy that's not yet confirmed. That's why red dragon is anxious. As shown in Ch3, where he's becoming desperate, since he's waiting a lot of time. Also, you can't also justify the death of innocent dragons, such as the white dragon. In the story there's no telling dragons are evil beings, just that they were the enemy of humans. And who but the royal family could sent the knight to kill them all? The knight herself told Mc that he has no choice since she was a knight and it was her duty. Ch 2 and 3 shows that she has to obey and even die without fighting the king, even if he was to take her daughther away. And abou that evidence, it's all in the way he treats and care for Mc. He asks nanny in ch 4 how to treat her, and in ch 6 the expressions he makes for her tells you all. Why would you make a face like that for a mere human? If you want to die by her hands, there's no need for kindness, even if the sword needs a pure heart, Mc won't change its pure heart as she is the Main character.  And in the Ch 2 and 3, he said himself why he killed the queens, and the empress said the same to him. He wanted to give knight a message, and also killing her in front of her daughther was ruthless as f, so why at that moment and not taking the daughther out? For the same reason he was killing the queens, patience for revenge. In ch 4, the nanny herself said he only killed all the royal family, not others, and since he's a dragon, he knew the difference between a nanny and who was in charge or gave orders to others to slay dragons and It was 10 years ago. The same time all the dragons were killed to almost extinction. At the introduction of the story, they told you that after the creation of the sword, all dragons but Mc where all exterminated by the knights and for the hero it took 10 year to kill the last of them (Mc).

I'm not asking everyone to sympathize with the red dragon, just to not insult him, since he has his own reasons for being like that. And also in other stories Mls are like that. Killing innocent people at war, like in the hero's wife. You see the Ml going to war, but doesn't show how many soldiers killed, or how they took food of towns people to feed the soldiers for example. At the story of "the lady of the lamp", the Ml killed her and all her familly, also purged all the citizens after her dead before she reincarnated and reincarnated again. All innocent, not only nobles, and still insisted on killing them all for same reasons when she (Ml) came back in time. You know why it's not a big deal? Because you didn't built and idea for the people who died, they just told you they were in the wrong, and also because the ml was purely human and really carefully brought to you so you could love him more  He was appetizing for readers eyes.

And again, Most of the Ml are like that. Like in "the villain saviour", "Why Are You Doing This, Duke?",  or "Sincerely: I Became a Duke's Maid", the Ml is doing what it takes in order to get what he wants, even killing, but is still loved  and I can also tell other mls and his reasons to doing what they do against innocent people that are between their way and readers don't count them since the author doesn't show it to you  

I don't think he's dead, I think Mir slashed him with a dagger the pink haired lady gave her in previous chapter.
Azar can't be killed with a regular weapon. According to the prophecy, he can only be killed with Permado and it has to be wielded by the child of prophecy (which the empress thinks is Mir) 

agreed but I had to get away from this after she formed a bond of affection with the knight. In her position, if Azar hadn't of done it, I would have killed her myself. 

This manhwa gives me anxiety and increases my stress level. Ghaaad, yes, the Red Dragon suffered and all that shit but what the f, is that supposed to justify all his actions? I hate reading this kind of story, personally, because it messes with my head. I dont like how a heartless tyrant can be redeemable because of a sad backstory that makes everything excusable. I think I could get through it if he somehow suffers for all the things he did, like not because of the curse, but because he is a heartless effing bastard. He needs a wake up call that what he's doing is no better to what those humans did to him. Ugh. Sorry, just ranting...

This is just like a similar(not quite) and effed up version of Goblin.
