    Alternative Title: 황후는 폭군의 목을 조른다
    Raws: Naver
    NovelUpdates: No
    Author: 캐로티
    Chapters: 136
    Status: On going
    Year: 2022
    Summary:
    Zion Aerys was a tool.

    A tribute to the parents who gave birth to me to prevent war with other countries.
    In that country, an excuse to threaten my country.
    To my husband, an empress who could only give birth to a son.

    It was fine nonetheless. The desire to live a better life had long since been abandoned.
    Just a little less pain, a little consideration, a little kindness.
    None of these were allowed to me, but I hoped to do so in the future.

    until that happens.

    *

    After living a life as a tool, Ziony had a child.
    For the first time, there was something I wanted.
    To give this man who ruined me, who harmed my child, more despair than death.

    “Please continue to love me. Even if I kill Your Majesty with my own hands, you will forgive me.”

    Is it because you want it deep in your heart?
    Her long-cherished dream had definitely come true.
    With the blade of the executioners falling without mercy.

    But why?

    “I will disappear when the time is right. So the Empress... … .”

    In the hellish reality that has returned, my despair tells me that it will leave me alone.

    leaving everything behind.

    This story is very very very angst and disgusting, you will hate both MC and ML a lot (in fact, maybe you will hate MC even more), so much you will want the "bad ending" instead of the "happy ending", nevertheless, if some translator is interested in picking this up, I would appreciate it a lot.

    I'm going give some spoilers, pls, again, I don't have access to all the chapters of this novel, everything is based on many comments and me reading the first 5 chapters, if you want to know more, someone please translate it or give more accurate spoilers.
    The ML is Nekis, he is the emperor (your majesty), Idk if the summary are future events or whatever, can't say what he did, because I couldn't understand it clearly ( based on the comments)
    The only thing I know for sure is this, MC (Shioni), thought that it was a good idea as a way of revenge to have an adulterous relationship with Kanis, Kanis was Nekis right hand man, he was a low level prince who was saved by Nekis, well, MC not only did have a relationship with Kanis while being married to Nekis, but also had his child (beware, Nekis never ever cheated on her), Kanis died, Idk why, but he died (my guess is that it's mostly because his relationship with MC came out).
    Shioni loves-hates Nekis (probably because of her past memories or who knows why), and I think Nekis (based on some comments), is just tired of everything (please, someone translate this novel if you want more accurate info).
    Shioni will probably lose more without Nekis than Nekis without Shioni.
    The MC just wants the ML to suffer and suffer and suffer (she is driven so much for revenge that she thinks about it non stop), but she also loves him, so she continues to hurt him while also loving him (mixed feelings).
    As you can see, it's pretty obvious that the ending shouldn't be "happy", or at least not with them together, I hope the author doesn't match them together at the end, it's far beyond point of reconciliation, they are both huge trashes, and I shouldn't hate some characters more than others, but I absolutely despise adultery, no matter the reason.
    As much as I hate this story, I think it's good that it gets translated due to the complexity it has.

    They do not need to be in a relationship but toxic relationship is popular nowadays so I wouldn't be surprised if they end up together.

    1) MC and ML, everything fine until MC was pregnant with ML daughter
    2) ML kills her daughter, she was 10 months old, stab to the heart, he only wants sons
    3) MC swears vengeance (either she does it in current timeline or time travels to the past to do the vengeance)
    4) MC fucks ML friend (Kanis , I will say more about this guy...)
    Between 4.5 or 5.5 Kanis dies, he probably, more like mostly, was executed by ML.
    5) MC has son ( it's not ML son, it's kanis son)
    6) ML is completely broken, like seriously broken, he is a soul of himself (wouldn't be surprised if he commits sudoku, based on one comment, he wants to abdicate the throne and give it to MC).
    7) MC loves-hates ML, so well, looking at ML state shakes her heart.
    Unless someone gives more detailed spoilers, this dude is seriously going into my very hate list above all the characters of this story.
    I read the first 5 chapters (they are free).
    This dude was a bug, he was literally the prince of a fallen kingdom who was on the verge of killing himself, just when ML appeared and considered him his family (ML didn't have a family) and his friend, he also made him the king of one of the many kingdoms ML conquest, ML said he could be the king because that kingdom didn't have any king, queen...left.
    This dude considered ML to be his parent, his god, his friend, his brother, his everything, and still, still he does that...I haven't read the story, but I'm pretty sure I know one of the reasons why ML is completely broken.
    I'm also quite, and I mean quite sure MC choose him specifically because of how close he was to ML and because she knew this shit was going to be the best revenge she could have ( I still don't know if she wants more revenge, or if she stopped with that revenge).
    This kind of dude is the reason why scumbags like Ezekiel were freak paranoids.

    Reading from the spoiler none of these characters are likeable, killing a child just because of their gender and the fl I don't even know what to say about her and his friend wasn't really his friend if the fl was able to convince him to sleep with her.

    No wonder why the ratings of this novel are low this story would have been so much interesting if they don't end up together because how do you come back for all these things they did to each other to actually be in a loving relationship

    Yes, I hope the female MC ends with someone else too. Just because her spouse never cheats on her, doesn't mean he didn't deserve to be cheated on. He dares to kill their child just because of the kid's gender. A quick death is too kind for the likes of him. Cheating on him with someone he truly cares for and getting a son out of it is one of the best punishments for someone like that. But if she ends up with him again (unlike the other story I read) just because she feels sorry for him (more than her innocent dead child), yeah... I'm gonna drop this. So... endgame spoiler, please :blobpeek:

    (In the other story...
    https://www.novelupdates.com/series/until-countess-mareena-westmont-attains-true-happiness/

    The female MC's spouse cheated on her and tried to murder her quietly. She found out, get better, then cheated on her spouse, get a son out of it, and promptly destroy her ex-husband's life after that. She didn't remarry for about 10 years until her son chose to become a cupid. When she did remarry, it was with the guy she chose to cheat on her ex-husband.) <-- And this is kind of what I'm hoping for this story too - I mean, the endgame part.

    Tbh I'm not fond at all with cheating as a way of revenge,even more when the other party didn't do it.
    There are many stories where the MC ends up with another dude,but they clearly weren't in a relationship with "ML" ,they either divorced or just move on,or at least weren't moved by wicked feelings, I must say the ML also rolled and regretted in those stories but MC's heart wasn't for him (it happens,nothing anormal about it)
    Your 2nd story is much different:
    1)The "ML" cheated on her prior to her cheating on him,this is a very important fact. (I will never,ever think cheating is a good revenge,unless the ML also cheated on her,or didn't like her...,for me, it's literally a novel breaker,be it MC or ML who cheat,I can't stand it,I just can't).
    2)The MC of this story,as surprisingly as it seems,does "love" the ML,more like she loves-hate him,I swear if she ends up with him,my afternoon will be ruined,it would be too and I mean too cruel for the ML (maybe the author thinks this is a wonderful way of showing love, well,not in my country or the majority of countries).
    Even his death would be a much more fitting ending,anything that means staying away from the MC would be a much better ending.
    3)MC involved 3rd parties,it's true that the other prick consented to have sex (an affair) with her,but you know,I just don't like when people involve others into their love affairs,and even more when they are clearly using them and breaking a brotherly friendship (even though the "friend" ends up being a useless idiot used by the MC and a completely unworthy snake).
    4)She had a son with the friend,and she wasn't raped or anything like that, heck,she wasn't even that interested on the friend (I think...) ,I'm quite sure the revenge was the main driver for her to do it with him.
    It's not like the other story where she ends up with the one who she actually likes,and is the father of her child,in this story,the friend,ends up dying.
    I'm sorry,I just don't like ML being the babysitter of the illegitimate child,and ending up loving and being "happy" with MC,who commited adultery,she could even chopped his dick,and it would feel less cruel and more human than what she did.
    I'm going to say something,I don't know exactly how accurate this is,but the one who is trying to just move on is ML,but this time is the MC who is conflicted with him (love-hate),and it's actually the one who I fear the most,is she even dares to get him back...
    Thank you for showing me the other story.

    It's okay. I didn't reply as a means to make you accept the idea. It's just that you asked for the name of the other story so I'm replying with the name of the story. Also, you mentioned your expectation of the endgame so I'm simply saying that I agree with you for a different reason. That's all.

    As far as I'm concerned, revenge is revenge. People will get it however they can and cheating is simply one of the ways to achieve it. But, most importantly, part of the reason I'm reading this kind of story is simply that I'm sick of chasted married female MC at the moment.

    Adultery and child killing are both terrible crimes, but one is obviously more abhorrent than the other. I find it bizarre that people think MC is worse for cheating on a sexist baby murderer of an ML. The dude literally killed her innocent newborn daughter before she could even hold the child, it's no wonder MC went insane with revenge. He brought it unto himself first, are people supposed to feel bad for a baby killer because he got karma'd for his actions?

    You forget to add that MC involved someone who shouldn't have being involved,like the friend, (it's also adultery + illegitemate child) , she could have picked any random,but she didn't,and she was well aware of that,she is also well aware of ML love for her,and exploits it knowing he won't hurt her no matter what she does.
    ML can't be forgiven (that is a fact) ,I'm pretty sure none on this thread wants them to be together,they are both trash,what many (I hope I'm not wrong) of us are hoping for is for them not to be together at the end,which is something that might not happen mainly because of MC.
    ML received karma as you said,so now,the more fitting ending is that they don't end up together,be it because he dies,or X reason,everything that means them ending up together would be the worst ending for both.

    Kanis => blonde hair and red eyes
    Lation => black hair and blue eyes
    Nekis => black hair and golden eyes
    Isabel => red hair and black eyes
    Ziony => silver hair and green eyes
    Liedrich => black hair and green eyes
    Vinata => golden eyes, Liedrich's sister
    Nekis warning to Kanis, first and last time he will show him mercy (Ziony trapped and tricked Kanis and Nekis and other nobles saw them (no sexual intercourse, but was quite the scandal) , he is no longer her
    escort => chapter 83
    Ziony (again) trapped and tricked Kanis into coming for her / visiting her , (after Nekis warning) => chapter 87-88
    Ziony drugged Kanis => chapter 88
    Nekis found the card Ziony send to Kanis (to trap him) , Ziony couldn't hear anything
    because of the fireworks (so she didn't hear Nekis footsteps, and well, Kanis was drugged, so he doesn't count..) and Nekis found them lying on the bed.
    Nekis took the decorative knife of the room and sliced Kanis throat, killing him
    Having read until from chapter most of the chapters, like 13 out of 15 chapters, from chapter 75 to chapter 90, and skipping the beginning, I hate the main character so much, well, I hate them both, but mainly her, because the part I read was her "revenge", she is without any doubt a prickteaser who was messing with Kanis because of her revenge, she knew he could die, she knew he respected Nekis, and restrained himself as much as he could, even though he was tempted, and she finally resorted into drugging him, his drugging scene was truly heart breaking, he was half conscious and crying, because he knew he was drugged, and when you are drugged, you aren't one self and he will do something he wanted but couldn't and wouldn't do ít because he respected his friend, I'm not a genius, but while none of the Naver comments called her a rapist, I honestly think what she did was pretty rapey.
    When Nekis found them, he killed Kanis (his best friend), Ziony started to cry and saying was sorry while she was hugging the death body of Kanis, Nekis just didn't understand why she was crying, he knew or suspected (at least later on) that his fren was drugged and everything was part of Ziony's schemes and revenge,and told her, why are you crying?.
    She achieved what she wanted, so why was she crying, that was Nekis internal question, he also didn't understand why she was crying later on.
    Poor guy didn't have a funeral and his death was hidden from the rest, only Nekis, Ziony and maybe some guards who helped carry his dead body knew about it.

    If you want to know why, check the Canis spoiler.

    I think I have an idea of the structure of this novel
    He is alive in chapter 130 and Nekis talks about a previous life.

    Liedrich was born in around chapters 92 to 100, 110 Kanis still talks about Liedrich and around 110 or 120 Vinata is born, so maybe around chapter 120 to 130 they regressed, probably because Nekis died of old age and was given a second opportunity
    Around maybe 120-130 to ending (160), it's probably a time to heal wounds and not repeating the same mistakes from the first timeline, and war, if I had to guess, against Lation, who is the crown prince of another country.

    The comments about Friedrich not being Nekis child could be from people who read from 90 to 95-100, there could be certain doubts and the possibility of being an illegitimate child was very real and possible.

    Happy ending with Nekis , Ziony, Liedrich and Vinata all together, I read some Naver comments, and Nekis nearly died many times, so while the first part is angst, the second part could also be angst (even more if Ziony also remembers her past life), but for other reasons (war and hate from the past life, not revenge and child killing? => yet to see or someone to spoil if he really killed her or it's another case of misunderstunding-chan).

    Sources, chapters from 60 or more like 75 to 90 to know about Nekis-Kanis-Ziony, 90-95
    to see how Dietrich looks like and see who very possibly was the father.
    110-120, found about Vinata by mistake, but already knew spoilers posted, so I wondered what happened, because I had little to zero info to minimu, be able to speculate.
    130, Canis
    160-161, ending
    165, final chapter side stories.
    Those are the chapters I read, if someone wants to read the rest, or the whole story, and spoil us a little bit more, it would be great.
    I don't know why, or if it's just in general Korean or romance fantasy novels, but this novel had a strange trying to be Shakespeare way of writing, sometimes I needed to reread and translate things maybe even 4 times, because it didn't make sense, was extremely cringe or I was trying to think what could they mean and what was the author trying to say.
