I absolutely love this novel and can't wait till the last 20 chapters are translated.The MC is smart and cares about his card subordinates and the ML is great and not overbearing after he gets to know the MC well.Spoiler
At the start all he thinks about is gauging out the MCs eyes cause they're golden and he's obsessed with golden things
[collapse]But once he gets to know MC and believes he is not a liar he treats MC nicely and spoils him if he can.MC is lying about being an emperor but eventually it's not even a lie anymore cause he builds an empire with his cardsHe also starts to like ML after he is more sure he won't get killed because of his persona collapsing and so has more time to indulge in romance.The cards all have their own personalities and quirks so I truly liked meeting new ones when the MC drew them. And they are loyal to the Cardmaster even if some don't accept him yet because of having previous crappy masters who abandoned them because they're difficult to upgrade.Anyway I truly enjoy reading this and I think you should give it a try. It's not dog blooded and the interactions between the cards and MC are interesting. The romance happens closer to the end (ML falls first and is clueless on how to flirt) but it's mutual respect from both parties so that's refreshing.Lastly thanks to the wonderful translator who keeps a consistent update schedule and the translation is very good 😊
