Summary
This was the ordeal of the wizard, Iris Elaine! At the same moment that she was about to suffer a mysterious death by a woman who came to her, Iris possessed her body instead.
Am I a queen now? she wondered and panicked.
The red-haired King Sidrain walked through the door. He strode along with a very unpleasant and irritated-looking face and growled as he grabbed Iris’ wrist. Her eyes shot open in surprise, as he’d appeared unexpectedly in the middle of the night.
“I don’t like doing this with you once a month,” he said through clenched teeth.
What does this mean? she thought, feeling panicked.
“But it’s up to you and me to produce an heir. If you behave like last month, I’ll make you suffer.”
What does that mean?
“This is the only thing you do that’s queenly anyway.”
What on earth is he talking about? She was at a loss for words.
“Well, let’s make an heir, Your Majesty,” he said sarcastically.

Exactly, like how did he come to that conclusion??
Karine Fonte
We already know that the real Rosemary was a top notch beetch capable of anything, so I wasn’t particularly appaled.
ChiChi
I wonder if her mother had royal ancestry as well. Thank you translators I look forward to juicy chapters🤩
ChiChi
Well who died and made this woman queen. Please go away we don’t want you here!🙄
flayful
I love it. ❤️ Am I right to assume this is Sara Bareilles’ lyrics? 😆
ChiChi
Oh so you thought you would just kill a great wizard out of nowhere and for what exactly. I hope all of the royal family members are not like this one. If so they can jump off the bridge too😡
ChiChi
Yes save your teacher and tell him what happened😭
Karine Fonte
Telling him would not make this story shorter by any means! There would be a huge political mess to straighten anyway since the queen is half dead, half alive for all ends and purposes.
ChiChi
How is iris going to fill these shoes without getting discovered immediately???😱😱😱
Karine Fonte
There’s an accident in between her “before” and “after”, she can always blame the near-death experience!

Poor girl she doesn’t understand her situation 😔

Thank you for the chapters 🙂

Seems author-nim really wants us to think of Rosemary as Literally The Worst Human Being Ever. I’m hoping it’s for the sake of springing a reveal of how “actually she had her reasons for acting so violent and crazy”, rather than an attempt to justify how the ML is going to continue to be horrible to ‘his wife’. Mentally branding someone a terrible person is not justification to keep being terrible to them regardless of their current behaviour.
Karine Fonte
I don’t know, some people are just born bad, regardless their upbringing, while some people are too good to let circumstances degrade them. I guess the author just wanted to highlight the glaring contrast between the two women and how difficult is going to be handling the situation.
Also, I was surprised Iris had a “fan”, so to speak!
ChiChi
Oh no please don’t leave Iris traumatized😱😱😱

Yay new chapters !!

He is a little insane. Who breaks down someone’s door in gratification.

I’d say he gained, then lost control of his mana, that’s why beoke the door.
Hope he finds out easily who she really is so he can help her to survive court life, this renowed serpent cage!

thanks for the chapters 🙂
poor Iris she’s completely lost.. I hope she will adapte soon
FictionAddiction
oh no she lost her magic?
Karine Fonte
Since the beginning I noticed magic in this worldbuilding is connected to the body, instead of the soul. So, that would be my guess.
ChiChi
So they have met before, good thanks for updates!
ChiChi
A little rough aren’t we? Forget control your mana learn to control your strength as well😂
ChiChi
I wish she could get her body back😭This Queen was evil and messy. Iris you have a challenge ahead you!!!

I would be so mad right now as Iris😡 Hopefully she can adapt the life in this body and bring about a new reign to the people around her! https://media4.giphy.com/media/ckxXpPxuUqyb5RcKLW/giphy.gif

I like the stories where the dirtbag adulterer who ignores and mistreats his own illegitimate child has to eat crow later.
Shima Enaga
Is the bitch in her original body then?
Shima Enaga
I don’t like him because he keeps manhandling her, as in ‘I don’t like you and you don’t like me so it is OK to be as abusive as I want’. It is not ok.
Karine Fonte
It certainly was one of those toxic relationships where both are abusive to each other in every way nad equal foot, I foresee a lot of heartache for our MC, sadly.
Shima Enaga
Nooooo!
Shima Enaga
He is a good dad/teacher/bff….can only imagine his reaction when she starts asking him about the licking and leg spreading…😲..😧..👿

This is good our Iris has some type of support in the palace hopefully. I hope Elana will realize something is amiss with the Queen. Thanks I’m excited for the next chapters😍

Poor Elaine 😂
Shima Enaga
OK..I take it back. He is not such a good dad/teacher/bff. Two days and a heartless husband vs. thirty days and a shy teacher, which will arrive sooner…..Iris sweetie, I will burn some incense and ask Buddha to save your innocence.
Karine Fonte
She’s so innocent she asked about it to her adopted father, who obviously can’t say “go ask your mother!”…
I knew it would be gold!
ChiChi
Poor Elaine how is he going to explain this😂🤣😂https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/dd8f79bd0aa372a62a3946c86787ed6801f237001db8610fb44a4f5a19ed4b99.jpg

My rolling snowball became a puddle and went nowhere. The man is smart. Have my offerings to Buddha been accepted…will her innocence be saved?
Karine Fonte
For now she’s safe, since she doesn’t know the first thign about the first thing of sex and he wouldn’t dare seduce such a meek mouse, it would be cruel.
BUT, he can create a network of protection so things become less dangerous to her.

Iris looked at the handsome man with jet-black hair and red eyes, which resembled a madman’s eyes, and she wondered if there was something wrong with him. – You and me both, sister. D:
I experienced a moment’s hope that this creep isn’t our ML after all, since the description here clearly doesn’t match the image on the novel’s cover. But looking back to (chapter 6) when he made his first entrance – by oh-so-charmingly belting ‘his wife’ across the face the instant she wakes from a near-death experience – he’s described as having “fiery red hair”…
Sweet Escape
It was a mistake in our part, sorry for the misinformation! The male lead does indeed have red hair.
frrama
Ah, no probs ^_^ thanks for clearing that up! Maybe as our FL teaches his out-of-control magic to calm down, he can simultaneously learn to tame his out-of-control hormones and not act so sleazy in future…
Jin Woo Supremacy 🛐
Oh my the King is booold now
Karine Fonte
There was an ember in his heart that was rekindled – first with her death, and now with her “rebitrth”. Oh, it’s gonna be fun!
Jin Woo Supremacy 🛐
Haha it’s going to be fun
Shima Enaga
Um, he is a red head. In chapter 6 it is “fiery red hair”, chapter 7 it’s “flaming red hair”, chapter 10 it’s “a strong red haired man” and he is a red head on the cover illustration. Does his hair change color with his mood?
Sweet Escape
It was a mistake in our part, sorry for that! The male lead does indeed have red hair.
Shima Enaga
I didn’t mean to make you guys apologize, translating is hard! So thank you for your time and efforts….I was kinda liking the idea of mood magic hair tho.
Shima Enaga
For someone suffering from anthropophobia she is doing really well with the touchy-feely tunnel vision king.
flayful
I somehow thought the author-nim would write that she faints for the first few times 😂🙈
but I guess it can be justified her being able to adapt because Elaine kicked her out before and forced her to immerse with other people in the village she was in 🤔
Shima Enaga
Eh? How did he hear them thru the soundproofing spell? Was he already there before Elaine got there! Stalker alert!….I’m just gonna be glad he stopped asking that poor child to spread her legs.
Karine Fonte
If Elaine soundproofed the walls, but not the ceiling, it«s possible the sound filtered up.
frrama
…Has this guy given any thought to the probable consequences of being all over ‘his wife’ in public like this? It’s hardly a secret that the two hate each other, so people are going to start suspecting that, “The queen bought a love potion from the witch, before murdering her to keep it secret!”; and given Rosemary’s reputation, they’ll believe she can only have done so for nefarious reasons.
Everyone will start scrutinising her every move, looking for signs of what terrible plot she’s hatching. Once they notice that she is literally no longer herself, the next thing they’ll suspect is, “the witch swapped bodies with the queen, then murdered the real queen to cover it up while stealing her place!”, which would be high treason – something even the king probably can’t shield her from the consequences of, especially if he’s thought to have been brainwashed into compliance by the criminal.
flayful
Ooooooooohhhhh 🤔
That’s a logical development. 🧐 Smart. 👍🏻
Karine Fonte
But not that much likely. Iris Elaine was known in the wizardry circles as a hermit, a scholar and a benemerit person, never got involved in politics and, as for all accounts, was snatched by the queen in the middle of the village she was living, then an acciidente happened. Yes, his giddy behaviour can, and possibly will, put them both in a dangerous position. Of course, rumours fly around and grow in size according to the gossipers’ interests – and so far the most dangerous interests are the ones involving treason.
Shima Enaga
Sidrain is a King balls to bones. He does whatever the heck he wants shamelessly and I find it hilarious.

Sith Kazar
This chapter is very confusing. I feel like some paragraphs are missing in the middle. Iris is walking to the balcony when suddenly the king breaks down a door and she is suddenly on the balcony in a man’s arms? Then there is something about an attempted poisoning?
Hazelooo
What did i just read? It’s so confusing @[email protected]
Shima Enaga
I forgot that he actually knows that she is afraid of people because Elaine himself told him when he was a kid, after he accidentally walked into Iris’s room.
Kumiko
This novel has missing parts and is really confusing
Shima Enaga
I think if the little three star section break (***) was placed atop the preceding paragraph (the ‘Iris stood still considering what to do….’ paragraph) it would flow better and be less confusing.
Shima Enaga
Do you think Elaine will figure out that Sidrain knows.
flayful
Yes. Considering this is Elaine’s flashback. 🤔 Most likely.
Karine Fonte
And after that wild scene at the balcony, with the hugging and tossing gloves and all that jazz – Elaine will have to realize he became a father-in-law!

Oh yes Elaine….Sidrain LIKES her… don’t get in the way…just let ’em kiss…ψ(｀∇´)ψ

Shima Enaga
I wish he would quit treating her like a child she is a woman, a young woman. Sure she struggles with anthropophobia but that doesn’t mean she is mentally stuck at 12 or something.
rachel chichi torres
I wish Iris wasn’t written to be so childish and naive. I can’t imagine Sidrain finding her personality endearing, tbh. I get that the idea was that Elaine sheltered her so she doesn’t know anything about sex but I think it’s crazy she didn’t even know about kissing on the lips. She never saw a couple? She never read a story with a bit b of romance? Her reaction to all of it is over the top.
Sophie
Well, considering she lived a life as Rapunzel I can understand it 😂 I mean, in the Tower she probably was just interested in magic, and as she said before, there weren’t any couple nor pregnant woman, also I doubt that there she was able to find any romance book. Still, ITS SO FUNNY JSJAJAJ I mean, I am no longer reading it because I am waiting a “romance” between Sidrain and Iris, but because how much this makes me laugh 😂
Shima Enaga
40 chapters in, so far we are really only dealing with 3 characters all of which have their good and bad points. Is it ok to start wondering where this is going?

What a spoiled brat.
She provoked the wrong wizard.
flayful
So wait, she (Iris Elaine) died but her soul got swapped with the spoiled lady? So is the spoiled lady dead in her body? Please tell me she’s gone and not sharing the body of the “face of life to hell” with Iris. 😆
Karine Fonte
Most likely they switched when drowning and the soldiers fished the “queen” instead of the “commoner”.
flayful
When the first date was goin sooo well, then the guy got too excited
and ruined it 😂😝
flayful
Relieved to hear the Queen’s soul is really gone. It would’ve been too cliché if Iris and the Queen fight over one body 😅
flayful
I bet Elaine will add Sex Ed in his disciples’ future curriculum 😆🙈🙈🙈 I knew he wouldn’t be able to do it bahahahahaha Poor Iris. It’d be so awkward to learn it first from Sidrian 😬
flayful
I can’t help but laugh 😂 maniacally at him 😆 This is not a development, or rather this is not how quick of a development, I expected from author-nim. This is quite refreshing, tbh 😝
Karine Fonte
But now it looks like a plague, indeed – first the Queen turns from wildcat to sweet bunny, then the master of the Magic Tower seems to be on an affair with the woman he loaths, and now the King is trying to be lovey-dovey with same queen. Everybody is going craaaaazy!
flayful
From being a fiery lava of a king 👑
Now all I see is a gushing blushing teenage boy 😆 who couldn’t get over his first crush BAHAHAHAHAHAHA and the crush, in question, has no idea 😂🙈
I am feeling secondhand embarassment for the King 😝
flayful
Had to read some paragraphs twice to understand and draw the scene in my mind coherently.
I think the original/raw text of this novel was written in such a complicated manner, hence the translation sounding incoherent.
Starting in the last paragraph of Iris’ POV. If I hadn’t read it twice or maybe that was 3x 😂 I wouldn’t understand that she was looking at the other man who might be Rosemary’s lover, and then Sidrain suddenly barging in the scene and breaking the door; how the situation immediately shows that in strength 💪🏻 it is more to the King Sidrain’s favor.
The way it’s written 🙈 I can imagine the author was trying to portray how Iris is looking at the situation as if she’s uninvolved or as if she’s just an audience watching the two men indifferently.
But it made for a confusing or rather difficult translation. Nonetheless, kudos to the translation team 💐 You’ve worked hard.
flayful
The reaction and argument because of Iris Elaine’s name was sooo hilarious 😂 😂 😂 I bet Sidrain would be showing off to Elaine when everything comes out in the open, and he’d be like “she’s my wife, your name can’t be her last name anymore” 🤣🤣🤣
Karine Fonte
Honestly it’s a mess, since it’s just half of her (the soul), the other half indeed is married to the king. But really, Pops, if you send your kid through the door you will have to accept whatever happens to her and the decisions she takes!
flayful
So this Usya….
Will she be a threat?
flayful
Wait, are they training her not to react when she sees people needing help????
Karine Fonte
I understood it was a play as in theatre, but…
Brightpearl
Thanks for the chapter!!❤️
rndmthrwy
The way the woman is described reminds me of Cate Blanchett
rndmthrwy
I don’t like that he slapped her….hmm
Karine Fonte
Yeah, that nasty habit of venting anger with slapping is rather old. Go break things, that’s a pretty interesting use for ceramics!
rndmthrwy
She’s seriously bad at this pretending to be queen thing, but I guess it’s expected since she’s originally anti social. HOWEVER the King dude. Dude. How are you going to explain the compete 180 personality and relationship change?? Simple madness and the poor blamed River??
Karine Fonte
Must be the most polluted river in all fantasy, how many botched potions and bleeding monsters were dumped there? And yes, I noticed it evoques the Han River, in Seoul.

She went and read a counterfeit knock off Kama Sutra xjsnckancjsnsnd

Wonder how that talk between Elena and Sidrain wound up?

Ya know Sid, there is such a thing called romance and the act of wooing a woman…at least THINK about trying to get her to fall in love with you before moving right on to making babies.
Brightpearl
Thanks for the update!!❤️
Shima Enaga
Imagine his reaction if she runs away.
Karine Fonte
I’m actually hoping for the moment she realizes she can have a dpuble life, as queen AND as wizard, because to be honest she is and is ‘t Rosemary, is and isn’t Iris. She’s both and can expand her influence for good – not to mention become a buffwr between two forces, the Tower and the Royalty.
Heath Bar
Sid please tell her you know she’s Iris. Now. Before you accidentally scream out “Iris!” during Making An Heir.
Heath Bar
Holy carp, he told her! I’m so happy!!

Hmm, well done Sidrain….now what.
Ianna
I thought everything what he said was all illusions. I mean the confession and on top of that, he told her how much he love her. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Nyanko
He’s so crazy 😂
Heath Bar
I actually feel really bad for these merchants. It’s not like they brought trash. They just didn’t bring the most expensive things that they know FROM EXPERIENCE that this queen doesn’t care about, since she only cared about appearance. She’s right to complain if they’re overcharging, but to terrorize them for not anticipating the completely different taste and expectations of Iris is not cool.
Ianna
Well, Iris just wanted to stop them from taking advantage of the Royal family. The quality is not on-par with the prices the Royal family’s paying for.
Nixie
She atleast could’ve given them a chance though. Like they should bring the best the next day or else.
Heath Bar
Agreed, the next chapter made it far more clear they were overcharging, and I’m OK with the complaints in that case. In this chapter it sounded like she was complaining about the selection of goods, not the price.
Heath Bar
Yay! She gave them a chance to correct the mistake. And she is absolutely right to call them out on overcharging. This chapter makes me feel better after the last chapter. 🙂
Ianna
Elena said Iris was an ignorant as 8-year old so I think those dirty thoughts of Sidrain will happen in the next hundred chapters 🤣🤣🤣
Shima Enaga
Ahh Sidrain, go to horny jail!
Ivanna B. Spanked
honestly, wtf am I reading… „Rosemary slept with all the men he liked, whether they had flaws or not”.
In the real world, relationship like that would be beyond repair but yeah fantasy just imagine it ain’t her.
Karine Fonte
But it was broken to the point he was seeking ways to hang her and she was seeking ways to poison him, she just kicked the bucket first!
Although the phrase gave me the impression she frekked all men he presumed to be honest and trustworthy nobles, leaving him with very little allies.
Ivanna B. Spanked
Chill Karen! I was only trying to point out unrealistic scenario. The setting of a story is hilarious
Karine Fonte
Dude, I hate my name sometimes… XD
Ivanna B. Spanked
This novel makes me wanna puke. ML’s first thought after realizing that his wife passed away was banging the new owner of her body. Overall everything is nonsensical, immoral and out of touch with reality(the only plus is comedy). FL is mentally weak. No recommendations from me, bye
Heath Bar
Oh my god, Sid. First of all, you need to tell Iris that you and Elena both know who she is and that you’re happy to have her. Then tell Iris you won’t force her. Then Elena has a reason to give Iris real s3x ed and Iris would feel slightly safer asking questions. Then get Iris used to hugs and cuddles. This is so solvable that it’s frustrating. And the longer Iris thinks she’s fooling them, the more embarrassed she’s going to be that they knew from almost the beginning…
Regardless, I’m enjoying the story, and thank you very much to the translation team!
Shima Enaga
But he did tell her he knew, on the horse before the whole merchant in the forest thing, but maybe she forgot….I dunno. I completely agree with everything else you say.
k.american21
Tbh I don’t Iris clocked that he knew who she was. I think it’s clear from all of this that’s she’s very naïve about a lot of things
Shima Enaga
You know what, I think you are right. I just re-read it and I think the part where he ‘says’ “Yes, I know who you are……” was meant to be more of an internal dialogue rather than a spoken statement. The quotation marks confused me.
Heath Bar
Same, I thought he told her at first too, and was super proud of him. 🙁
rachel chichi torres
Sidrain doesn’t want to admit that he knows she’s actually Iris because that will free her from having to pretend that she is his wife. Once the secret is out, she would probably go to the tower and live as she did before. He is hoping to get her to like him first so that she might stay and act as his wife/ the queen permanently
Heath Bar
hmmmmmm. I didn’t think of that. I was thinking she’d never be free figuring that if she was publicly outed as Iris, she’d be guilty of murdering the queen. So telling Iris that Sidrain and Elena were on her side would only be helping her hide that she’s still alive. But I can see your point too. I guess I’ll have to keep suffering the angst until the author resolves it all. 🙂
Shima Enaga
I’m dying! Does she think she can get pregnant thru her mouth!? She does doesn’t she….wait till Elena (I hope) explains the process, Iris will vanish on the spot never to be seen again 😂😂😂

I find Iris’s naivete annoying. Even if she’s asexual, she acts like she never heard of anything romantic or intimate ever. I know that she isolated herself but I can’t imagine that she isolated herself *that much*. She never read stories that included romance or even friendship? She never studied any science that covered anatomy or reproduction? They say she is really well read and intelligent but then she acts like she grew up locked in a cupboard somewhere.
LillithBerri341
I see your point, but we also have to remember her childhood trauma. Her teacher and the Tower are her LITERAL saviours and whole life.
To the point that she was temporarily kicked out of the Tower, because she was so isolated from the outside world and life.
If she is asexual (granted it’s totally on a spectrum and no person is the same) then what reason would she have to read romances? (I know asexuality doesn’t mean a person doesn’t want romance, but given Iris’s prior behaviour and dynamics with people; and going with the assumption of asexuality) Particularly those with sexual scenes?
I’m glad they’re not just dismissing how jarring and disorientating it must be to A)Suddenly be in a body totally the opposite of your own. B) Have to act and live in a life totally opposite of your own. C) And do it all while pretending to be a hated queen… D) Who is in a bad marriage lol.
This is Iris’s literal hell.
Magic is and has always been her life. I’d find it odd and is ‘suddenly’ she was a femme fatale ready to seduce lol.
If you want to blame anyone blame her teacher. He knew Iris relied on him for interpersonal skills and he deliberately cherry picked what to teach her.He didn’t like the idea of her having sex, so he just didn’t teach her about it.
That’s wilful negligence.
Also a big thing: Iris doesn’t have friends or family. A lot of knowledge of such dynamics come from those relationships. She lived away from the other mages(?) and lived by herself with her pets in a hut… Where was she to become a society star?
Ianna
This tower girl is funny… to the point that it is irritable 🤣
Ianna
This is so frustrating. For god’s sake Iris, biting his ‘sausage’ is unnecessary 🤣 No matter how naive you are, you cannot run away from his ‘sausage’ because this is a smut novel 🤪
Leeluscious

Hmm. Something is off with the chapter links. Chapter 56 advances to the novel home screen, Chapter 57 has no back link to Chapter 56, and Chapter 58 advances to Chapter 1.

Wait what? Is marriage between relatives allowed in this novel? They have an uncle-niece relationship like what?
Karine Fonte
No, no, no. It’s not allowed, but Sidrain claims to have seen everything of abnormal and repulsive, including between kin and even “interspecies” – if you don’t know what it means you go to Heaven.
Leeluscious
Uhhhh aren’t we a little too fast? HAHAHAHAHA
Karine Fonte
It would be illogical otherwise, “Rosemary” changed so drastically that only if they were all idiots it would last.
Leeluscious
Well, I’m not talking about the pace in which Sidrain found out Iris was inside Rosemary’s body but the way he easily felt “attached” or “liked” Iris because they only met like once? Well, she did help him but it is still too fast in my opinion that is. I’m not bashing the story or anything. I feel that you are protecting (?) the story in a “passive-aggressive” way – if you don’t know what it means you go to Heaven.

Thanks for the chapter 💞
Ianna
Elaine’s now starting to get on my nerves. 😤
Shima Enaga
I am beginning to find every character, except for Iris herself, to be very selfish individuals.
Ianna
Oh no. Now, I hate her teacher so much. 😭 But this might turned out well 🤭
Goodluck Iris 😏
Shima Enaga
For once, just once, i want to see someone think about how Iris feels rather than what they want Iris for.
Heath Bar
Hard agree. Sidrain is at least respecting her physical boundaries (mostly), but that’s about it. None of them have ever asked how she wants to live (or of she’s changed her mind about anything) since the one time Elaine asked Iris as a child if she wanted to go to the tower.
Karine Fonte
What if he tells me to spread my legs again? Why on earth does he want me to spread them?
Oh my sweet angel… The next father-daughter conversation is going to be SO MUCH FUN!
Karine Fonte
Oh man! THe dude tossing himself through the balcony 3 stores down was sooo cartoonish!
Ianna
Her teacher is selfish! It’s not like she wanted to be in the body of the Queen in the first place. How can he say to come back to Tower when she’s in the body of the Queen? Is he stupid? 🙄
Heath Bar
The worst part to me is that he only seems to want her back to keep boosting his own reputation, rather than because he’s honestly thinking about her feelings. 🙁 It’s going to be difficult for Iris to accept that it’s not okay that her father figure has been allowing and in some ways encouraging her to hide so he can keep his own power structure.
I assume this the author’s way of showing us that Iris will eventually get more self-agency through being the queen.

Thank you so much for the chapter! So sweet!
Shima Enaga
Oh hallelujah! Please have an open discussion you two…….I know, I know that is not likely to happen because Plot and Storyline circumstance. It just feels a bit stuck and circular right now.
Shima Enaga
Uh oh. Whenever his reason and logic leave his hands and lips wander.
Ianna
Isn’t it about time? LOL 🤣
Ianna
Wait, what? Haha Actually, I couldn’t quite grasp the scenes. The author kept cutting the scenes, leaving it to our imagination. 🤣
Sith Kazar
This novel jumps around sometimes. I don’t know if its the author’s style or if parts are missing in the translation. So confusing. They were making out and then suddenly she is alone and writes this weird letter. She gives the letter to a house elf to deliver, but then that changed to the chief?
Ianna
What was that all about? 🤣
Sith Kazar
This story is ridiculous.
LillithBerri341
Ridiculously cutely funny 😂
Shima Enaga
She’s going back to the tower isn’t she.
IANNA
That’s so terrifying.
IANNA
“The future wasn’t guaranteed. If their value decreased, then they could be thrown away at any moment.” I felt that.
Still, that was cruel of the former King. He must have feel terrified but nevertheless, he had to do it.
Brightpearl
Thanks for the chapter 💞
IANNA
Yes, finally tower girl!
IANNA
Haha, he really needs to release his desire to devour Iris 🤣
IANNA
Are we finally getting some action here? Haha
Nyanko
So long right? 😂
IANNA
“But I haven’t even tasted the other side.” 🤣
Shima Enaga
I wonder if Elaine is the one spreading the mold….as some sort of way to get Iris back into the tower and away from Sidrain
IANNA
Everyone seemed wanted the Queen. Lol
IANNA
Anyone who knows Iris’ background will know why but no one knows except that girl (currently present). Clearly, their relationship must have been sour based on Iris’ cold treatment. Goodluck to that girl which side she’ll choose upon knowing the Queen is Iris, her stepsister.

1. Iris sending the sick kid to the tower just like that was irresponsible tbh. It’s true that the magic fungus was something the tower can handle but that’s because it was a magic fungus. Not everyone can discern between that and normal illness. I work in a hospital and the stress it gives is Hella heavy, what more if you’re not equipped and trained to do it? She could have done it in a more discreet or better way. Not in front of the public.
2. Dude bro Elaine getting Hella controlling. He’s her teacher, not her owner.
Heath Bar
Well, these characters are new and interesting. I wonder where this is going…
IANNA
I just remember how Iris lived when she was younger. Haha

I feel a little bad for Margaret. The fact that her hands are rough from laundry shows that she didn’t have an easy life herself. The problem is that she only feels better by belittling those under her and hasn’t learned empathy.
.
IANNA
What truth he’s referring to?
Kassy
How Iris was abused as a child
Shima Enaga
Why kick a downed dog? Can’t really understand why the author wants us to feel sympathy for Margaret because I for one am unable to cheer for them. To me they are no better or different from Margaret in how she treated Iris.
Fiis 10
Agreed. It makes sense if the court ladies ignored the one who the queen didn’t like, but they all chose to immediately start bullying and mocking a woman they had never met and know nothing about.
Not a satisfying comeuppance for the wicked half-sister.
IANNA
I pity Margaret.
