Synopsis

Nobody understands why the brilliant six-year-old Inés Valeztena de Perez picked Cárcel Escalante de Esposa as her fiancé. Considering her family's high status, she could have easily married the crown prince and led an outstanding life as the empress. Cárcel grew up believing that Inés loved him deeply, despite her eerily emotionless demeanor and understated style. But, put in a difficult position against his will, he harbored no affection for such a dull person and instead turned to countless other women behind her back.

Cárcel's whole reality crumbles when Inés catches him in the act—because she does not care whatsoever. She intends to turn a blind eye to his infidelity even after tying the knot, which leaves Cárcel in complete disbelief. Inés' indifference ignites a perverse desire inside Cárcel, and he abruptly loses interest in everyone else. However, there is a reason behind each of Inés' actions, and it all started when she took her own life for the very first time.

My first review ever because this manhwa is a masterpiece. I can't believe how much I was captivated by the story of Ines and Carcel. I even cried (tears came to my eyes) at some moments of the interaction between the two, especially when Carcel expresses himself in front of Ines. Simply a masterpiece. Read it while you still can in this life, because in the second you may forget everything.

The artstyle was a 10/10 (so good). The character designs are very good especially for Ines and Carcel. It's clear that the artist put a lot of effort into it.

The story kept me captivated and ...

The story is okay, actually, nothing amazing, it is pretty much a slice of life, nothing truly happens for the most part. The art is beautiful as almost all manhwa are, but what truly shines in this one are the characters. Character development is truly amazing here. Not only it managed to make me keep reading a archetype that I am totally tired of, but it also managed to make me crazy about it. I think I will look for more stories like these, lol.

I don't like writing spoilers on reviews, but believe me when I say: I am quite hard to please, and I ...

This manhwa is just amazing.

I've read tons of manwhas of this genre but this is without any kind of doubs one of the best otome isekai I've ever come across.

The main reason I decided to give this manwha a shot is its art and the only thing I can say about this matter is that it's astonishing. All the characters are amazingly drawn and the amotions are really well portrayed.

The story is pretty good and entertaining. Furthermore, it adresses very interesting topics (even if some of them could be delicate to some people) so you could consider it a plus.

The characters, both the ML ...
