## Chapter

- release_date: 2025-03-09

### Summary
The amnesia plot introduced in the previous chapter escalates into chaotic romantic comedy, with Emperor Estian's memory loss failing to erase his deep-seated possessiveness for Empress Cecile. Readers found his behavior both hilarious and unhinged, highlighted by a widely-memed scene where he desperately searches for Cecile, even looking inside a pot. While his mind is blank, his heart and trauma remain, with many readers theorizing his actions are a manifestation of the pain from her previous three-year absence. The chapter takes a significant tonal shift towards more adult themes, as Estian's possessiveness evolves into "yandere" behavior, culminating in a BDSM-themed scene involving chains or handcuffs. This development has polarized the audience, with many embracing the wacky, trope-filled absurdity as a fun departure from the main story's drama, while others find it random and nonsensical. The consensus is that the "memory-wiping chocolate" has not only erased Estian's memories but also unleashed a more obsessive and physically forward side, cementing the side stories' turn into a spicier, more chaotic narrative.
