I find it ironic that bookML hated what happened to his mother, spent his life getting revenge for his mother, turned into a psycho because of what happed, and in the end did the exact same thing to his "true love (MC)." He literally became his father.....
It's been so long that I don't remember but I think MC was born in a city that turned brutal war zone. Aka literally bodies littering the streets, fights in every corner etc etc. MC mom was actually pregnant but lost the child during the war. She is grieving and hears the sound of crying. Digs out MC from some rubble or something. She never tells anyone about this and all those around her are her family servants/ soldiers so they too are super loyal. So everyone assumes her baby was born safely.
Tbh MC Mom clan is SUPER FUCKING GOOD. Even MC Mom has never wished anything but good blessings for MC. She literally raised MC like her bio daughter and even when she went crazy from poison, she never forgot that MC is her child. Like never ever ever. MC Mom's brothers seem to know about this but they love MC Mom and MC and MC Bro just so damn much. What little snippets we get about them is so fucking good and wholesome that it makes the emperor's actions even more horrific. And ofcourse the crown prince or book!ML too. But MC is mostly born of nobility. They were either killed defending the city or ran away. I think they were killed defending the city. But I don't remember this much so take it with a grain of salt. Maybe someone else can give more info?
Are u talking about her 'biological' but not biological brother? The one for whom MC sacrifices herself and get married to the tribe leader? Later, he will be found near-death. He goes into coma. By the time he wakes up, a lot of shit has happened and he has completely lost all martial arts. He goes nuts and attacks the king. He is barely stopped by the imperial guards. He will take a carriage to follow MC's route to the tribe. On the way, he will abandon everyone who is accompanying him coz they are all actually the king's and the crown prince's spies. He will run away. Of course he will get the news that the tribe was attacked by villain. He will go to the villain's kingdom. On the way, the crown prince will join him coz crown Princess will tell the news that MC is not biologically related and crown prince is like - Oh so I should not take revenge on her. Brother is pissed but crown prince is strong (especially now that he is v injured) and has more men. They get caught by villain kingdom's people and prisoned. Then they break out, join the war with ML's army in a city away from the capital (where MC and ML are). Sister and brother will meet in the middle of the battlefield and hug each other uwu
