The story is pretty interesting and most of the characters are fine, I know a lot of people are complaining about the heroine's braindead followers but for the most part they just serve as set dressing for the sake of the MC, which I don't mind.What I absolutely hate though is the romance in this story. I can excuse the actual pe*ophilia and kinda r*pey ML because that's pretty standard fare for a shoujo romance, but the romance is totally out of nowhere and completely derails the story, and the cool, powerful, intelligent MC just becomes a bumbling idiot as soon as the ML starts "teasing" her. And then the second ML gets introduced and the power dynamic with him is somehow even worse than just a five year age-gap with royalty. He pretty much owns her. And on top of that he's even more sadistic and short-tempered than the already brooding and capricious first ML. I'm dropping the story this chapter becauseSpoiler
he literally forces the MC sleep in his bed, and it's not even the first time a man has forced her to do this. I thinks it's very obviously some of the author's fetish leaking into their writing.
[collapse]So if you just want to see a cool, badass, intelligent MC becoming a villainess then drop this story around chapter 100, before the romance starts picking up.
