The Crown Princess Audition

He targeted FL for reasons exactly as you said, she came from a powerless noble family near the North Border + she herself is naive and selfless so that helped as well.
ML wanted shadow sacrifice slave but realises in the end that no human being is disposable + fell in love with Apple along the way.
TLDR: He is not a bad guy deep down, but can be selfish if it means to achieve his goals 

looks good! 

No he didn't, I guess readers missed these lines:

  


As for your question why he didn't kill the everyone there or ditch them and run away: Actually he has death magic casted on him by his Aunt's suggestion: Once he reaches age 20  his heart stops beating automatically if he is not stabbed yet by a holy sword, so it's no use.
It's hinted in flashback chapter. 

He explicitly states he used mind control on her. As to why visit the thread, the same reason people watch auto accidents,  fires, or other disasters. 

Why did I read it in Dora's way? I think looking at Dora the explorer fan arts anime style gets to me now. 

I have a question though. Did Killian and Iris really did the deed? Or did something happen to prevent it. And I'm curious if Killian and Apple lead a happy long life.

I'm also kind of pissed in the new manhwa chapters cause Apple seems to have taken a liking towards Sidder. Did Apple really like Sidder or was it just a simple crush? I feel so bad for Killian 

i loooooove this story!!!!!!!
