Ah, I should have listened to the advice and warnings of others but I decided it could not be that bad, right? Oh, how wrong I was? It was bad, very bad. Let me elaborate, first of all magic.

Magicians are fairly common and they have to actually study and work to be able to use their powers. The common thing about the most talented and strong ones is that they all shared a common characteristic in their appearance. They help protect the nation and its citizens. Tell me would you... more>> be grateful to the best and the elite magicians or would you try to use violence or verbal abuse against the people that can instantly kill you. It the same case as for the people in military and police in our world except they use guns and other equipment instead of magic. Would you do such thing to a General?

Secondly the couple, let us say you love someone such as your childhood friend. Now that someone is going to boarding school. You cannot meet them as often but you would still be able to meet them during their holidays. However, they always make some excuse and never come to meet you for 7 whole years. You only method of communication was letters. After such a long time has passed you finally meet face to face again but they are really rude to you and constantly abuse you verbally. You decide to ignore that and they are now, at least on paper, you Fiancée. They do not meet or talk to you often and are always busy. Years pass by and they are still busy and are going out of the country. More time has passed and you are well passed the normal age of marriage. Suddenly, you here the news of their death and you pass out in shock. Later, you learn they had faked their death. Finally you are going to get married but they want to do it in private and do not publicly announce your marriage as they are either too embarrassed or other people will flock to them because they are so talented and will try to destroy your marriage (how prideful of them). They say it is to protect you. Later on whenever you go in public they do not introduce you as their spouse and do not stop other people from flirting with them. They did not try to help you or care for yours psychological health. Again and again they betray your trust and make you doubt whether they love you or if they have another lover. An admirer of them put you in danger, but they wait to the rescue you till the last second, until you shout for help, to bu*t in and help you. They make a lame excuse for the delay.

A toxic relationship at its finest. Just because someone says they love each other, it does not mean that they have a healthy relationship especially if they are not kind and understanding to each other.

TL, DR: The main couple is in a toxic relationship where the girl gets mentally hurt and psychologically tortured again and again. Please don't waste your time like I did. <<less

I love the first volume, but the second one is just too much.

ML basically won't recognize MC (his fiance then wife) in public, and therefore both of them got hit on by upper aristocrats. ML didn't want to announce his marriage to MC for fear of MC being shunned by his fans, which is s*upid in itself because then he'd have all of these high-specs women chasing after him. He didn't even consider MC's insecurities for that one-sided decision.

I honestly can't see him as more than a womanizing narcissistic unfaithful... more>> character, not unlike real life guys who wouldn't acknowledge their relationships in public just because they want to be surrounded by women's attention. There is no way a good guy who is truly in love with his wife would choose to hide his marriage and hurt her intentionally in the process. Not to mention the fact that he never paid enough attention to notice her troubles.

Edi is by far my most-hated ML character in shoujo novels right now. <<less

I never felt so angry when read a novel before. But when read this one I always have an urge to throw tantrum and break everything to release my anger and frustration.
MC just acts like a doormat for everyone's convenience even after 10 volumes! She keeps apologizing, feel guilty even though it's not her fault, meek and accepts everything when people tr*sh-talking her. And her husband, sigh... what a hopeless piece of sh*t.
This novel like just exists to torture the MC with her own naivety and her husband's... more>> s*upidity.

The author keeps using "That man" or "The man" while revering to ML in Filmia's POV really annoys me. They are married, for f*ck sake. Just use "Edi" as a pronoun! you make them look like they are strangers

Spoiler

Look at volume 9, THEY FINALLY HAVE FKING TWIN CHILDREN, and when I think finally something happy for MC then suddenly SHE CAN'T GO NEAR HER FKING CHILDREN because that bloody scar from king spirit caused by her husband's incompetency, and her children appeared is loved by spirit, so the spirits are afraid to go near the MC. Volume 10. Yes, their children were kidnapped. The author is just a sad*st who like make suffer their character and the readers

You've probably seen it in many action series: there is an ordinary girl who loves the MC but is totally useless and just keeps crying out the MC's name. Well, this is our protagonist.

You would not see her trying hard, scheming or having cool powers. She just befriends a guy, waits for him and eventually marries him. I know this is not an action story, but I'd like to see a protagonist who takes a more active approach to life. They didn't even have a heart-throbbing date.

Well written. That's why not 1 star, but 2.

ML is an a**hole, even the worst rapists from chinese novels are better than him. He literally tortures MC mentally. I can't see any romance here at all. His twisted personality is simply atrocious. Why there is no psycopath alert in tags or summary?

*sigh*

If you must read it, then limit yourself to the first volume. They were cute there. Going forward, they weren't anymore.

I had high hopes for the rest of the volumes since the first one looked good and thought I could probably endure until the 6th volume but I realized I'm not such a masochist.

The second volume felt so suffocating. I want to whack myself for not reading the reviews before picking this up.

If you're into abusive and dysfunctional relationships of emotionally broken, foolish characters then by all means read on.

This novel almost make me spew blood. It enraged me that much.

The first volume was pretty good which made me have high hopes for this story but the second volume has them acting so unbearably s*upid and infuriating. Neither of them communicate with each other, Filmina acts like a f*cking doormat to her own husband and everyone else and Edi is just insufferable. He claims he wants to protect her and that's why he's hiding their marriage but doesn't notice that doing so made her so insecure she's literally tormented... more>> by it. I don't doubt he loves her but he sure doesn't prove it when it's important.

Don't even get me started about the third volume because I had to drop it where she accepted to be the maidservant of an anmoying half-brother of the king and effectively make herself a servant/shield for him, all because he took her bookmark. HELLO your husband and the princess is there! Say something?! You know they'll back you up! You know your husband will absolutely destroy him with the princess's approval! They were both telling her not to accept his demands too. Moron.

My advice: if you're going to read this, just read the first volume. <<less

Gosh. I like the story BUT the characters just aren't improving I mean vol 1 was really good but by the time I was reading vol 2 my eyebrows just kept on furrowing every chapter up until vol 3 I mean filmina is too soft and frustrating like come on she doesn't rely on her husband's help even though she's about to get mugged. She disregards her friend, the princess, and her husband's worries about her being a maidservant/shield of someone who's blackmailing her with her F.U.C.K.I.N.G. Bookmark when she... more>> can just straight out tell them that she's being blackmailed since they're all having tea together. She claims she's mature because of her mental age but she gets f*cking annoying every volume gosh and don't get me started on edi. Anyways the main point is, this novel lacks character improvement and as much as I want to love it nah the author just keeps on justifying every character's s*upid actions and it's not even entertaining anymore. The translation is amazing but other than that meh. Good day! <<less

I want to give more star but the more I've read the chapter the more its suck

the first volume is pretty damn good, but the next volume it's unbearable. I didn't understand why the MC keeps herself to have not relied on her husband, I mean it is your husband. You can tell and ask everything to him. The MC always said that she would do anything by herself and don't want to bother ML, but it's TO MUCH. I mean come on did you really must disgust yourself to... more>> be a servant just to get back your bookmark. Please rely on your husband and PRINCESS a bit. You are an adult, you should know when the problem can be done by yourself and when you SHOULD ask for help to others.

I give a big respect to ML that finally decided on publishing their marriage. Although I still hate the fact that he persistently hides his love relationship. And OF COURSE for those MC ARGHHHHHHH <<less

This story is too beautiful! Filimina's insecurities are the part of the story that makes me shed some tears for here like "gurl ur man loves u don't be sad anymore!". The extra contents gives me joy too since they shows us the point of view of the people around Edi and Filimina.

At least for volume 1, this story is incredibly adorable and heart warming. I shed some tears too. Props to the translation person\team, they do an amazing job.

I'm eager to see volume 2. I hope it's just as interesting as volume 1. ?

I'm sorry, but if in a romance novel the ML is so hateful I want him to crash and burn... I don't want to read it. I hated the ML for being cold and rude to the MC. Supposedly, he cares, but he ignores her in public, doesn't let people know she is his wife, and leads her into terrible situations.

Not only that, but the MC is weak. She doesn't ask for help at all. This could be due to how badly she was treated by the ML over multiple... more>> occasions, or it could be she just has a weak personality like a cardboard cutout. Overall, I can't even get into this story.

Let's not support psychologically and emotionally abusive relations by popularizing this! <<less

I'm very fond of this simple novel so I was delighted to see how they improved the story in it's published form. The extra contents were a joy to discover:

... more>>
Spoiler

They expanded on Filimina's feelings in a much more clear cut manner by giving the two chidhood sweethearts' poignant interactions from the get go. Making her sound less like a neutral bystander and more of an exasperated fiancee.

Her own insecurities and complicated feelings on the matter of their engagement are shown in the original, her own actions betraying her true feelings despite the casual way she phrases things. Yet it wasn't until when she was told of his possible demise that Filimina dropped the pretense of being unmoved.

[collapse]

They show Filimina as girl in love.

The translator also included novel illustrations as feast for the eyes.

I'm very excited to know what the other volumes are about. <<less

Actually 3.5 but I lean more towards 3 than 4.

Well I may be judging unfairly since I only read up to the middle of v3...

Well I was kind of hoodwinked into thinking this was more romantic than it would actually be when I snuck a peek at the wedding illustration.

I would first like to complain that I don't like how much they need to mention how PAINFULLY AVERAGE Filimina is. It's like they want us to just feel bad for her because there is SUCH a big gap and so... more>> it would be obvious other girls fit him better. *Rolls eyes* Is it a crime to be average? Is it a rule that handsome men have to be superficial and can't love a normal girl? I am fine with ability/social gap but the demeaning looks gap theme makes me a bit mad.

I wish she was just a tad bit less soft but I can understand her insecurities. As for him... I wish he could acknowledge her struggles. I even prefer the helicopter MLs to an aloof ML who doesn't even seem like he's trying. When has his cold front worked? It was his accomplishment and authority that worked for him. Wouldn't it be common sense that he could protect her better if people knew that he would unconditionally support her?

Still I would not go as far as to call him a terrible asshat or psycho or bastard... He's insecure too and you can't blame him completely for not knowing how to have a proper relationship.

I'm just not super happy about how they chose conflict situations after the 1st volume. <<less

My review in a nutshell: Just read the first volume.

Otherwise, if you really want to.... Be prepared that the main characters become severely s*upid later on. Second volume and onwards made me question “Do the main couple truly love each other?! They hardly freaking communicate with one another! It’s been months since they get married and there is no word of children yet?!”

I have never come to hate an otome novel as much as this one *sigh*

This is a typical shoujo isekai novel. The woman gets transported and becomes a noble and marries a hot man. By being typical the problems seeing in most of the novels are here too, namely the obsession of the romantic pair, she (MC) saying over and over again how she is so dull and not as beautiful as every one of the other cast members, and the how beautiful and pretty and handsome, etc; that the husband is (I kid you not, you will re-read the explanation of how he... more>> looks like either a doll, a night fairy and his eyes that shine like a morning glow at least twice each chapter, and this extends somewhat to other cast members). This does not necessarily kills the enjoyment in reading, just turn it dull, somewhat, at points. There are interesting developments and stories, but this self-pity of the MC gets tiresome as well. If you like isekai where the OP is not the MC, but she is not all useless (even if she says so over and over again) this is for you. Just be ready for the problems pointed. And to some parts where you will be pissed off by the lack of simple conversation that the main pair have and theirs, sometimes mutual, stubbornness. <<less

This is a sweet, cute story. Its more like a 3-3 1/2 star story. The relationship is a slow build, and while reading, you could wonder if they even love each other. They both seem oddly calm about the long seperation and infrequent visits while he becomes the great wizard. But if you consider that with his early childhood abuse and her being reincarnated, the quiet love and comfort they find in each other means that the hearts and candy doesn't need to be prolific. They seem more like an... more>> old, old married couple than the young lovers they are. Its a quick read and doesnt have a lot of action, adventure or anything really. Its quite a simple story. Its worth a read if you have some spare time and want a break between high drama stories. <<less
