Description: She was adopted by the devil-like count. Before dying, Hailynn lived her whole life being confined in a hut. When she opened her eyes she was 8 years old. She returned back in time right before she was to be adopted by the count. Hailynn wanted to ask God... What was it that she had done wrong?!?! She cursed God and threw herself out of the carriage that was en route to the count's estate. On that path, she met the Duke Kalisto, the representation of the sacred Vincent Kalisto. But... "She is of noble blood." She thought she was an orphan but in actuality, she is actually the first daughter, in a thousand years, of the ducal household of Kalisto. "Am I really... the daughter?" However, Vincent has never approved of any woman and lived his life in abstinence. He swore he did not commit any act that may produce a child, thus he denies that he's the father... "...A monster?" What is the secret behind Hailynn's birth and the abrupt movement from the empire and the holy country?! This is the first-time father, Vincent, and first-time daughter, Hailynn's clumsy yet lovely story. link: https://page.kakao.com/home/내가-딸이에요?/53446232 Imma drop this here as well... EDIT : I'm not sure about this info but in the post announcement it also mentioned that the artist for this manhwa adaptation is the same artist as the one who made the Empress of Another World (either novel cover(?) or manhwa(?) ) EDIT 2: GUYS, IT'S COMING OUT ON NOVEMBER 1!
Someone has translated fourteen chapters! Here’s the link https://mangadex.org/title/57019 Or https://manga3s.com/manga/am-i-the-daughter/
here's what we know so far Spoiler: spoilers manhwa *The duke is kind of the "king" of the holy country and he swears he has never touched a woman (well ykwim) so when the priest (named JADE) assures him that she is part of the Callisto (dukedom) bloodline bc of her resemblance + affinity with holy power, he can't believe it. * The count is really trashy. Everyone thinks he is nice whilst on the inside he is a psycho. He was once in love with the daughter of the Orpheus family if I recall well, a love that was not reciprocated - apparently this was a pretty famous story in the empire. He in the end married another woman who he had a daughter with, who persecuted MC too. * The pink eyed boy that MC met in the streets of the capital is the 2nd Imperial Prince, Noah. He is really good at magic - everyone says he is a genius - though he doesn't have a good affinity with holy power (unlike the Kallistos and so- Hailley = MC). Therefore when he got poisoned, this was a big issue. * The duke know of the count's true colors which is why, even though he's not sure MC is his daughter, he doesn't want to give her back. How cute. But since everyone likes the count, rumor has it that the duke has *kidnapped* MC from the count. He doesn't really care. the duke knows** sorry for the typos :/
According to a book review, seems to be the case (just google the title and link for naver blogs) and the story is apparently slow (oof) but sweet and heartwarming. My theory is that the reason the dad doesn't recall is possibly like Princess In the Dumpster's dad Spoiler the mom either had an ability where people forget her if there's not enough people remebering "her kind" or something like that OR there's random ass black magic and stuff happens and everyone doesn't remember MC and her mum. Now I'm wondering if the count investigated her background and figured it out...since it was said that the count was in love with this lady and she rejected him so he went cuckoo so could MC be that daughter?
I just want one spoiler: Will the girl suffer more? I know there's a drama tag, but it could point just at MC's first life and at what has happened with the mother. I don't like angst.
It will be kinda disappointing if the plot follows Princess in the Dumpster setting, and I think usually people like the Duke with strong divine powers should be unaffected by magic. So knowing that MC doesn’t remember her life before 7 years at all and that she had a necklace from her mother before and now it’s gone, my Spoiler: assumption about mother is that mother’s family had time travel power and when it was used by mother before it somehow affected memories of other people and MC
I have MTL a review of the novel mentioning of the possibility of the Duke having memory loss. I quoted from the MTL review: Spoiler: Memory Loss of Duke (FL’s father) ******It's not that important! It is a fact that Yeo-ju is the daughter of the Duke, but there are signs that it is a state of memory loss to know that the Duke is a virgin. Because there are two sacred swords that are handed down only to these religious states, each of which deals with memory and time. The sword the peacock (it should be the duke I suppose?) handles is the one that deals with time. It seems to be the fact that the duke was revived when he died in a previous life. In the process, it seems that the memories have been lost. When I saw the comments, it was said that in exchange for saving Yeoju, all the memories of the woman I loved (Yeoju's mother) were exhausted. Anyway, you said two swords? In the latest episode, Yeoju acquires a sword with memory ability among the holy swords. To be honest, if that’s so, that’s kinda sweet and sad at the same time. He was willing to sacrifice everything for his daughter to turn back time and it also explains why in the manhwa, the sword doesn’t respond to him and why it was suddenly quiet. It probably used all the powers and that’s why it doesn’t respond anymore. But the duke doesn’t realise it himself. From all these, I think this novel/manhwa would be a great read. I really enjoyed how cute the manhwa is and the female lead’s personality as well. But like what other people had said, this would be a slow process. Even from the review I MTL at, the reviewer mentioned that she had only read until the FL was 10 years old and she was excited to read after she becomes a young adult.
