# WebtoonLib — Side Characters Deserve Love Too #117 ## Series - title: Side Characters Deserve Love Too - slug: side-characters-deserve-love-too-d020da ## Chapter - number: 117 - release_date: 2025-03-13 ### Summary The farcical trial of Geumja's male alter ego, "Joe," for black magic has intensified, fueled by the Emperor's blatant tyranny and a shocking revelation that the royal bloodline is broken, rendering his rule illegitimate. The chapter's central conflict hinges on the testimony of Deloah, who betrays Joe, confirming the worst fears of the readership. This act has deeply polarized the audience; while many condemn her as a "snake" and a "bitch" for her opportunism, others argue the betrayal was an inevitable political move that Joe should have anticipated, given Deloah's previously stated ambition to secure the throne for Isak at any cost. As Isak remains passively silent, the proceedings are dramatically halted by a shocking divine intervention from the goddess Turga, who freezes time. This unexpected arrival has been met with overwhelming reader excitement, recasting the goddess as a powerful ally against the corrupt Emperor. Amid the chaos, Geumja—who has now attained the rank of marquess—is seen as acting recklessly by attempting to reveal her own secrets, leaving readers furious at the injustice and eagerly anticipating the fallout from both Deloah's treachery and the goddess's interference. - summary_source: graph_aggregator - summary_verification: unverified ## Spoiler - level: auto ### Safe teaser The farcical trial of Geumja's male alter ego, "Joe," for black magic has intensified, fueled by the Emperor's blatant tyranny and a shocking revelation that the royal bloodline is broken, rendering his rule illegitimate. ### Spoiler summary The farcical trial of Geumja's male alter ego, "Joe," for black magic has intensified, fueled by the Emperor's blatant tyranny and a shocking revelation that the royal bloodline is broken, rendering his rule illegitimate.
