5 stars for the translation and I'm honestly glad that RainofSnow isn't updating this novel anymore because it's badly written and there are too many plotholes. It would be a good read if you don't use common sense, really.

First of all, Clara, the youngest princess should be aware of the importance of the marriage between two nations. Even if she's the youngest and the most naive princess.

The first plothole: no one, not even the queen who said was worried about her told her why she needs to be married, like... more>> they just told her that she'll be married and they even wanted her to marry with a man who has 3 MISTRESSES! I've never seen a story/novel where a PRINCESS will be married off to a man like that. It would have been a different story if the two have been married first before the man take mistresses home.

Second plothole: A duke shouldn't be able to have mistresses because he's not an emperor unless he has the royal blood which is not the case here. Correct me if I'm wrong but a duke should introduce his mistress in the social circle if he's a widower or a divorcee. I'm not really sure about this but if I'm wrong, it still doesn't sit right with me.

Third plothole: The MC's s*upidity. The author must really like dumb MC's because it's written here that a man (I forgot the name) told MC that her s*upidity is her charm and I was like hell nah hell nah

Fourth plothole: The ML's 'love'. It was mentioned on the latest chapters that he has an unrequited love for MC and I don't understand how it became so deep that he slaughtered people after she was sent to the neighboring country when the two of them never really had a proper interaction.

Fifth plothole: The most annoying plothole for me. This is a type of novel where common people's lives (other than the main characters) doesn't really matter. You see the ML went to a battle with barbarians and he slaughtered them all. So what, you say? They're enemies, it's kill or be killed, you think? But the thing is, he also killed his allies WHICH MAKES NO SENSE. And when the prince found this out, he was like "Oh, poor people" and just like that. They already forgot about them. Not even a compensation was given to their families. And don't let me get to what would the victims' families think about the battle and the kingdom's knighthood. Was that supposed to be cute?? Perhaps, to let people see his yandere tendencies?? Or both? Perhaps both but I don't really care because I know this novel is over.

About the fifth plothole, some of y'all might think, I'm being a bit too emotional-engrossed in a fiction novel but I don't care because that's what I really think it is. If y'all don't care about minor characters like this in novels, it doesn't matter because I do. There are a lot more but these are the major plotholes that I decided to mention specifically. <<less

TLDR It reads badly. The writing flows poorly. The premise of a princess raised to be a maid while maintaining herself in the palace will make your eyes roll 2 STARS

Details: This was just an unenjoyable read. Between the naming, the insane plot, the jumpy writing anything you could latch onto to enjoy was destroyed. That's before you get into my pet peeve of European settings with no presence of the church and Asian marriage customs. It also has my number two pet peeve the "joyous life of commoner" but... more>> that's actually just a minor issue in this story as the rest is bad. <<less

Soooo this story is kind of weird... Like the author obviously wants you to think the protagonist is sensible and down to earth, but really she is absolutely crazy for not contacting her brothers... Also, are we supposed to roll with thinking it's awesome if your husband has three mistresses? I'm still hung up. AND, MC hammered it in that she was fine with marrying anyone for the sake of her country, so once the marriage was blocked, shouldn't your patriotic ass go back to that damn country? Not start... more>> living as a commoner without telling her brothers that care about her and supported her whether she got married or not? Anyways, regardless of the alien-like MC, the tl is good. I'm just worried they're setting up for dense protag X shy ml. You know, the most painful romance in the world. All in all, it piqued my interest enough to check back in after 60 chapters to see if there's progress but not enough to anticipate more. <<less
