### Summary
Following the main story's controversial conclusion, where the central curse was resolved by editing the world's foundational code like a text file, the narrative has shifted into side stories with a dramatic tonal change. The latest chapter introduces a classic and highly polarizing romance trope: Emperor Estian suffers from amnesia after eating a chocolate prepared by Empress Cecile. This development has been met with a mix of reader disbelief, frustration, and humor, with many decrying the "lazy" plot device while others embrace the absurdity of a memory-wiping cookie. The chapter also advances a significant side plot, delighting fans with the surprise reveal that the characters Girgantia and Tania now have twin dragon babies. Overall, the reader comments indicate a clear move away from the series' previous high-stakes drama towards more lighthearted, trope-filled romantic comedy, with an increased focus on the established couples and a spicier, more suggestive tone.
