Analyzing Networks of Characters in ‘For My Derelict Favorite’
[WARNING: SPOILER ALERT]
Description:
I entered my favorite romance-fantasy novel, which I have read many times.
Thanks to the body of a wealthy commoner, I bought the status of a fallen aristocrat, attended a noble family’s gathering and observed the romance of the characters in the original novel.
I wanted to return to the real world after witnessing the ending.
But somehow, even after the ending, I was not freed from the body I possessed and remained living in the original novel.
As a result, I acquired the stories behind the scenes that I refused to comprehend.
My favorite sub-male lead, Caelus, has died.
Living impoverished in the original work without him, I eventually fell ill and died.
Now, I wanted to return to reality.
However, the irony of fate returned me to the end of the novel overnight. This is definitely… to save my beloved, right?

Analyzing Networks of Characters in ‘For My Derelict Favorite’:
Male lead: Caelus
He was very desperate because of Diana (the original female lead). He sacrificed everything for her but in the end, in exchange for her coldness and fear. So he decided to end his life, but thanks to the female lead, he gradually returned to being the man he was. In the end, he chose to give up Diana. Returning to reality, the person who always accompanied him at the present time was Hestia. He loved her, but he was afraid that if he confessed his feelings, he would be abandoned, just like the way Diana did to him. But he bravely spoke his heart and now he’s happy with his current wife.
Female lead: Hestia
Hestia’s only goal was to keep Caelus to be alive, happy, and free of the depression he had after being abandoned by Diana and Haelios. She thought that if they apologized to Caelus it might help his recovery a bit, so she did a lot of things to gain power in the aristocratic society, to aim for Diana and Haelios, especially Diana. Hestia approached Diana’s best friend, Mrs Harmonia and tries to loosen their bond little by little. Because of the man she loved, she was determined to do everything for him and help him return to the way he was. Even his smile made her happy all day. She did her best for him, not thinking a bit for her. This is what made Caelus fall head over heels in love with her.
Original male lead: Haelios
He showed his repentance and apologized to Caelus. He also realized that he gradually fell for Hestia, but still, he promised Caelus and Hestia that he would never be greedy for what they had. Besides, he helped them with the best he ever could, he comforted Hestia when she ‘admitted’ that he couldn’t see the future anymore, all of this explaining the reason why he asked Caelus to oppose the dethrone of Diana:
– If the nobles could decide anything would happen to the Royal family that would be a really bad precedent for the royal family.
– He fears that if he divorces Diana, Diana will come back to pester Caellus and interfere in his relationship.
– What I love the most is that he realized that LOVE CANNOT DO EVERYTHING, he married Diana for love, but they have different aspirations and values, also, he has his own responsibility as the Crown Prince and the future Emperor.
Original female lead: Diana
In the original, Diana was a person of integrity, determination, and kindness. But ironically, when she fell into the vortex of power, she changed and was no longer the same as before. She was selfish, unruly, and stubborn. She thought that just because she has a special ability, everything will be as she wishes. But she was wrong. Those things gradually became the reason why the love between her and Haelios became fractured. She didn’t love and believe in her man anymore. It was because she lost her trust that she chose not to have children with him. Then they divorced.
Before their relationship ended in divorce, she had always wished that Caelus would fall in love with her again. Even, every day she went to the temple only to pray for Hestia and Caelus to get a divorce soon and that she could take Hestia’s place. Because now, her relationship with the crown prince is also on the verge of breaking up. She remembered how Caelus had wanted to commit suicide before because she didn’t marry him. She thought that Caelus still held this affection for her but in fact, she was wrong. By this time, Caelus was already in love with Hestia.
