### Summary
The dynamic between Juvelian and her father, Duke Regis, intensifies, becoming a central point of reader debate and speculation. Following his uncharacteristically panicked reaction to her fainting, Juvelian is now subjected to his awkward attempts at bonding, such as quizzing her on territory management, which she misinterprets as pressure while he sees it as a successful conversation. This sudden attention fuels reader frustration over his 18 years of perceived neglect, with many arguing that no tragic backstory can excuse his past coldness. However, a prominent reader theory, presented as a spoiler from the novel, offers a dramatic reinterpretation of events. It posits that Regis is also a regressor who turned back time after Juvelian's suicide in the original timeline. His seemingly cruel actions—imprisoning her and giving her a dagger—were allegedly part of a desperate, failed plan to protect her from the emperor, with Maximilian's "interrogation" intended as a rescue mission. This revelation casts both Regis and Maximilian as tragic, misunderstood figures, cementing miscommunication as a core theme. While grappling with these complex motivations, readers consistently praise the manga's beautiful art style, particularly the handsome design of Duke Regis, who has become a fan-favorite "DILF."
