If this is the only way the author thought he could end this series, I guess he really wasn't that creative, or the publisher is really up his ass wanting to axe this.
Maaan that's kinda disappointing. I mean, settle in as a city's lord ? I thought he would go adventuring to many places since he has that oath to protect people from darkness. I also wanna see him fall in love. Bromance is cool and all, and fuck yaoi shippers, and while I usually hate forced...
I really hate it when stories try to force attachment and familial love into romantic love. It's always a thorn in whatever I read, as it always stirs up trouble one way or another, and I find it pretty uncomfortable that a son would view his mother that way.
NOOOOOO WHAT ARE YOU THINKING SHULI PLEASE DON'T. Why did she not question how others might think of them going alone to a secluded place, let alone what the prince might try to do after how forceful he was about his confession...
Damn, on top of the crown prince taking a liking to Shuli, probably followed by Nora, even her parents are gonna be annoying. This girl really gets no breaks...
