Empress Cesia Wears Knickerbockers — Chapter 140

The latest chapter of Empress Cesia Wears Knickerbockers, Side Story 7, had readers buzzing! While some chat about the upcoming hiatus (looks like we're waiting until August 9th! 😭), the main focus was definitely on the characters' paths.

Readers continue to adore Cesia and Lester's dynamic, whether it's romantic sparks or just fun drinking buddies – some even see parallels to their connection with Yuri! ✨ But the real excitement? The potential pairing of Arsinoe and Lian, the genuine merchant! Fans are *really* rooting for them, calling their interactions promising and even comparing it to an Aladdin and Jasmine vibe. A side story just for them? PLEASE CONSIDER IT! 🙏

Arsinoe's journey sparked some debate. While many *desperately* want her to find romantic happiness, especially with Lian, others feel she should focus on governing and personal growth first, potentially challenging the expectation of marriage unless it's truly for love. After all, they note, women in this world deserve happiness and sovereignty over their own lives! 💪

Speaking of sovereignty, the chapter's question/riddle also had readers pondering the answer – freedom, choices, or the power to govern one's own life? Many found the revealed answer insightful.

Overall, fans are deeply invested in seeing all the characters, from Cesia to Arsinoe, find their own version of happiness, marriage or not. It's clear readers are loving these deeper dives into the side characters!
