Celestia lives in the back alley of Golddina and has a skill that can dispel magic.

She thinks that her skill is useless and supports her talented friend Serengevan instead.

“Get that crazy b’tch out!”

But he betrayed her and sold her as a s*ave even though they promised to get married.

In her inescapable despair, a man who looked to be a nobleman appeared before Celestia and seeing his condition, Celestia proposes a deal to him.

“I can heal the disease you are suffering from.”

“…Where did you hear about me?” The man’s face was getting increasingly scary but Celestia wanted to live.

She eventually got what she wanted, and arrives at a place which resembled the imperial palace.

“In the future, call him ‘Your Majesty’.”

“……Your Majesty?”

“Of course, he’s the one and only Emperor of the Burg Empire, Van.”

Surprisingly, the identity of the man is…

The Emperor of the Burg Empire, known as the Red-Eyed Psychopath.

Celestia became one of the emperor’s subjects,

Can she survive safely?

I'm enjoying this power couple! Since she'd lived in a dark alley, you'd think getting to a neighboring kingdom's palace would be a treat, but Celestia isn't Cinderella and she's got a brother to worry about. She was betrayed by the man she grew up loving and then found herself being sold as a s*ave. Our male lead, is as cranky as a good Chinese novel love interest can be, but his reasons are brought out early and he's also a decent person, so that's a relief. They bicker and... more>> banter in a pleasant way. He doesn't push her (so far) into anything and she doesn't throw herself at him. The power dynamic between them is obviously unequal, but incrementally, they work to fix that. <<less

If you're into FL that are intelligent, talented and fast-learning, this is the novel for you. The FL in this story lack of resources to show her talent to the world because she keeps on sponsoring an ungrateful jerk (her ex).

What I like about this is that the ML also gave FL the chance to rise into power with her own effort, he let her go to academy to study more and give her an opportunity to have a decent status on her own, so she's not independent on the... more>> ML's status or as the ML's "special" s*ave.

I can't wait to see her ex's downfall tho lol Thanks for translating this. <<less

The fact the ML knew that the MC was illegal made a s*ave and took so long to correct it is gross and makes him unable to be liked. Also, the mary sue is so strong that the novel is literally pointless. All the MC's problems are pointless and contrived bc everyone and their mothers love her unconditionally for literally no reason.

This is too slow paced for my tastes. Not much even happens, the MC gets bullied a bit but nothing crazy, and it looks like the emperor has just realized he likes her 51 chapters in so there's a ways to go before there's any romance. The MC is smart but a lot of what she does is in the background. I'm still not completely sure how she's able to heal people or what's wrong with the emperor. Same thing with why the Empress has so much power.

Pacing is too... more>> slow and many important details are too vague in my opinion. <<less

I really wanted to like this but the pacing is... bad.

I can tolerate some poor pacing but when it's combined with a character who is supposedly smart but her behavior clearly isn't...

Ugh.

I'm usually very generous with this sort of story, since I'm not expecting much plot wise but you should just gloss over things for the sake of plot speed.

... more>>
Spoiler

she meets this kid at the academy and she happily greets him. He tells her that he is a parish and that they shouldn't talk

Then she bullied at the academy because they are all stereotypical aristocrats. But this is supposed to be a place where 'talent reigns supreme.'

Moving on... she gets sick, finds out that she's in a bed that she's not normally in and... it gets brushed aside. As does the bullying

[collapse]

then, there's the lack of originality, which grates me the most

Spoiler

again, I'm not expecting something fantastic that the world has never seen before but come on.

At least give some flavor to your villains.

I was deceived because her 'Ex' had a plan and a personality whereas no one else does. I want him to come back...

she gets bullied because she's not a noble. The girl bullying her says that she is the emperor's fiancé. She looks down on our commoner MC. for that reason alone. barf

[collapse]

when it's tedious to slog through a chapter, it's time to call it quits.

HUGE PASS <<less

I so in love with the female lead😍 the premise is a girl from the alley saved by an emperor and brought to the palace, but girl ain't a dimsel in distress. Celestia is very hardworking, kind, she is very smart but was naive once because of love, but she moved on and work harder and tried to be better in her life. The male lead seems decent, I hope to see their romance bloom faster xoxo.

Pretty good, the MC is bright. Smart, but she’s really normal too - she’s brave when needed, but scared when it’s scary, her smart is street smart, it’s limited in court : but she at least doesn’t make ridiculous mistakes that would bring danger out, all that balanced a Plausible vibe makes it interesting to follow her

the pace is rather slow, yet rich, time passes, things happens with small incidence so far - the relationships evolve very slowly too, there just enough too entertain, but it also feels like we’re... more>> barely beyond the introduction and maybe things will get serious when she finally works for him... ? <<less
