### Summary
The latest chapter confirms reader speculation as Yuliana's magical curse, sabotaged by her own foolish improvisation with an Estian-like rabbit plushie, backfires spectacularly. The spell strikes Emperor Estian instead of its intended target, leading to the unceremonious death of Yuliana, an end readers deemed pathetic and fitting. The resolution is short-lived, however, as two new antagonists immediately emerge. A mysterious man abducts Cecile, infuriating readers by possessively calling her his "wife" while Cecile reacts with uncharacteristic passivity. He is accompanied by a red-haired woman, identified by some as a minor character from a past chapter, who bears a striking resemblance to Cecile. This new female villain is revealed to have killed Yuliana and is widely believed to be a "Dark Cecile" from one of the countless alternate timelines that ended in tragedy. Her appearance introduces a multiverse conflict, seemingly motivated by jealousy over the protagonist's happy ending. This abrupt pivot to a convoluted new plot has left the audience feeling overwhelmed and frustrated, with many complaining that the story is being needlessly stretched and overloaded with unexplained elements just as a previous arc concluded.
