## Chapter
- number: 18
- release_date: 2025-03-13

### Summary
While the previous chapter's discussion was dominated by the universally positive reception of the innocent new character, Emma, the current chapter has generated significant reader confusion surrounding the parentage of Prince Dyan. The central point of debate is the revelation that Dyan may not be the emperor's biological son, leading to widespread speculation. Readers theorize he was adopted due to his "divine features" or that his father is the emperor's brother, possibly connected to a rebellion 25 years prior. This twist has caused some to re-evaluate the story's structure, noting that Dyan fits the archetype of a typical protagonist in this genre, with the narrative unusually told from the perspective of his rival, Sienna. However, the execution has drawn criticism, with many readers finding the plotting weak and the dialogue confusing, particularly due to inconsistent pronoun usage. The underlying tension between the main leads, who are positioned as enemies, remains a key concern for the audience, who are uncertain how the central conflict will resolve.
