### Summary
Following a jarring time jump from their magical date to a tea party, the relationship between Lihen and Schdermel appears to have progressed to them being "partners." However, Lihen is tormented by guilt, believing she can't pursue her own happiness as she is still a mother at heart, despite her daughter's wish for her to move on. This internal conflict frustrates readers, who are torn between wanting her to embrace her new love and speculating on whether her daughter could be reborn even with a different father. Fan discussions also buzz with theories about Schdermel's potential status as a royal illegitimate son, continued jokes about his unpronounceable name, and mixed critiques of the art, which praise the fashion but find fault with character faces.
