The Viridescent Tiara

Description

I was a normal grad student until I woke up in a world right out of a novel I wrote as a teen. But danger's on the horizon—the character I became was originally destined to die and people are out to get me!
Even though this character's past was full of villainy, I'm using my insider knowledge to survive the flame of the Azure Ring, settle debts, and make things right for the House of Latia! Can I earn the trust of the hero and get ahead in this world? Are there secrets that even I don't know?

🏰❄️💍⚔️✨🔮♟️⚜️

Love the art. ML’s personality is kind of cliche cold guy who only shows warmth to the person he loves. FL is competent and smart but when with the ML, is often reduced to a blushing, flustered female lead.

However, plot is interesting (while not entirely original). Good read…except for the borderline incest of the main couple technically being brother and sister (not blood-related but parents were married)…like…whyyy??!!! It could have been so much better if it had just not had that.

MAIN CHARACTERS

🌱🍂 Lan Romeo De Lachia (FL)

flustered, blushing, doe-eyed with ML
usually straightforward, capable,
older step-sister of ML (mother married into fam)
”I’m going to protect the ML”
”I have to gain the ML’s favour”
”I will be head of house until ML comes of age”
was very minor side character
“I’m just a side character. I’m not needed here”

♟️⚔️ Raban De Lachia (ML. Spelling of name varies)

flat expression
caring with a straight face
”you shouldn’t trust me” [to FL]
sent to boarding school for most of life
disliked by step-mother (mother of FL)
abused by both parents
in-charge of a shadow spy group

🍊🥀🩸Lumiere (2nd ML)

kind, mellow, kills apathetically
was second ML
was slave, forced to fight in illegal rings for his sister’s medicine
‘saved’ by FL
sister is ill. Eventually sent to live in elf village to heal
unrequited love for FL. Moves on

🗝️ Sheena

charismatic, kind,
was FL of novel
in Novel, from another world
possible romantic side-plot with Lumiere
grows close with Lan ———

💍🦋Lachia family is well-renowned but broke

castle built by magician behind ice wall. darkness sealed. the emerald tiara (family heirloom). head of house chosen by blue fire from ring. one of most remote/isolated families.

———

ASPECTS / TROPES

FL died in car crash. Into her own novel
ML with a plucky, expressive sidekick knight
3 families serving Lachia (Wilde, Lance, Illuminity)
Solving family debts
A scheming uncle
The Spirit World
FL didn’t create the world. She was a prophet.
Elves, dwarves and mage relations
Political intrigue
A scheming new empress (season 3)
An incompetent new emperor (season 3)
The darkness behind the door in awakening
Great Sage Ivera
ML has more power in the relationship: he literally puts his hands around her neck (gesture of strangulation) while asking why she’s not afraid he’ll kill her…and she just smiles and says something like “I trust you anyway”?!! I get it’s supposed to be romantic for him but that just shouldn’t happen between two respecting equals.
ML and FL are siblings and also the main couple. While not blood-related, their parents were married. They attempt to ‘solve’ this by removing FL’s name from family registry so they aren’t legally siblings anymore but…They still spend the majority of the series being referred to as brother and sister. (Season 2)
At the very least, I’m glad they didn’t immediately go from siblings to lovers. She spent time with her different title, just being…herself before even considering a romantic relationship.

Everything from plot, to art to characters is just above mediocre. Art might even be considered good. Nothing great, but not a bad way to waste time.

Clumsy beginning but great worldbuilding and incredible art

by nausicaa70

The start is a bit off putting but it progressively picks up and it becomes a very pleasant read :

The plot is interesting, it is more complex than it may seem at first sight.
The characters are good as well. The ml is a bit emotionless but he is intriguing, I hope his personality will be further explored as the story progresses. The fl on the other hand is endearing, independant and intelligent. Their chemistry is still a bit off but it will probably grow (you should know that the romance is very slow paced, not that I personally mind). The side characters are also quite good.
The world building is fantastic ! it’s more thorough than I expected and it was a very nice surprise. If you can get past the clumsy beginning you will discover an interesting universe, that’s what kept me reading before I got attached to the characters. However quite a lot of elements were introduced, i hope there won’t be any of them left aside (the concept of the viridescent crown for example, but it’s the title so it will probably be further developed later).
Last but definitely not least, the art is absolutely gorgeous ! Some panels are truly works of art _

Anyway I’ve just finished chapter 44, I still think this story is a bit lacking (maybe because of the inexperienced storytelling) but I still enjoy it. I hope it will become even better !

hmmm i kinda dont want the ml to be her brother... i know that they’re step siblings and not related by blood, but still... they used to have a lil brother who have the same blood from the fl’s mom and ml’s dad, so it’s kinda weird... it’s one of my fav story but i kinda want to pass IF the ml is her brother.. well if there’s no romance at all, im also fine since their siblings relationship is enough for me

Sensible characters, great art, interesting plot - but romance is lacking

by Shygirlz

Rating: 8.0 / 10.0

Everyone's sensible and the plot is interesting. The art is super pretty and very very good. Only fault is that there really is like no romance. The male lead almost never smiles, even, so he comes off as pretty emotionless and bland. (A shame too, since the art's so good!) While in the story he's supposed to (I think, anyways) be slowly falling in love or something, who even really knows. It's like the author went for a slow burn, but... forgot the burn part.

With the only main characters thus far being the male and female leads and the male lead not pulling much weight, the story feels more like a slice of life about the female lead managing a kingdom, making money, and figuring out how to get a good ending (which is still a pretty good story lol).

Update:
Season one’s finished, and I figured I’d update my comment. There is a romance aspect in the last couple chapters, though it did seem to come out of nowhere lol. The romantic scenes are even quite cute, and surprise - the male lead has now even been shown smiling once or twice. The chemistry’s still a bit off unfortunately. Reflecting on why, I think it’s just because there weren’t really scenes of the two getting closer in that way before oh, I guess one of them’s really into the other one now? I get that IRL love can happen like that, but there’s just this disconnect since we don’t see any of the “falling” part of one of them falling for the other. One day / chapter it’s still all platonic and the next suddenly there’re strong feelings being shown. Okay setup complaints aside, the now-present romance is cute and appreciated.

Besides the topic of romance, the story continues to be interesting and engaging! Looking forward to the second season.

But.. I feel like something's missing that makes me get a bit bored from time to time.

Still an alright read though.
