History Manhwa / Masca

* {{Bishounen}}: Elihue, Cainen, Mizar... it's easier to list off the male characters who ''don't'' fit the trope.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Cainen is always barefoot. When he finally wears shoes for Asarella's wedding, she makes a point of mentioning it.

* ShortHairWithTail: Cainen and Rakin both sport this.

* BastardBoyfriend: Both Elihue and Cainen qualify. Elihue knows that Asarella only sees him as a father, and yet he selfishly emotionally blackmails her into agreeing to marry him. Frustrated that Asarella doesn't return his romantic feelings, he comes close to raping her in a terrifying scene. Cainen on the other hand takes advantage of Asarella's love for Elihue and blackmails her into losing her virginity to him, leaving her traumatized and confused. Neither are good people - even the author believes Asarella would be better off with Hadassah instead.

* RapunzelHair: Several characters sport long, flowing hair, with Rea and Cainen (especially during Rakne's rampage) standing out.

* BabiesEverAfter: One [[AlternateEnding extra story]] in volume 8 shows Asarella and Cainen married and having seven young children. Asarella is [[MissingMom an absent mom]] who travels for years at a time while Cainen [[HouseHusband stays home]] and cares for their many children. He tries to conceive an eighth because Asarella stays home with him for about a year after the birth of each child.

* BettyAndVeronica: Elihue is the nurturing, safe and responsible Betty and Cainen is the dangerous, snarky Veronica to Asarella's Archie. Unfortunatelly for Asarella, over time their negative [[NotSoDifferent similarities begin to arise]].

* NotSoDifferent: Cainen curses Rakne for always using extreme measures to get what he wants, only to immediately admit to himself that he too behaves this way.
** Elihue and Cainen both extort Asarella to get her as their sexual partner. Cainen curses Elihue and conditions the removal of the curse to Asarella sleeping with him, and Elihue uses her filial love for him to strong-arm her into marrying him, threatening to leave her forever if she does not comply.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: The beautiful and melancholic Cainen has a few women ([[EvenTheGuysWantHim and a man]]) hanging around his castle trying to romance him. He's not interested and keeps teleporting away from them, but they don't get the hint. In fact, if anything his evasiveness appears to make him even ''more'' appealing to them.

* ArmorPiercingQuestion: When Rea despairingly asks Cainen why he doesn't love her, he asks her why does she love him. She doesn't really know what to say.

* BabiesEverAfter: One [[AlternateEnding extra story]] in volume 8 shows Asarella and Cainen married and having seven young children. Asarella is [[MissingMom and absent mom]] who travels for years at a time while Cainen [[HouseHusband stays home]] and cares for their many children. He tries to conceive an eight because Asarella stays home with him for about a year after the birth of each child.
* BadassAdorable: Although only 19 years old an a rather inexperienced mage, Asarella is very brave and clever, managing to outwit Belials infinitely older than her... much to their amusement.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The second volume marks a distinct change of tone in the narrative, which goes from cute and funny to dark, gritty and outright nightmarish sometimes.
* DamselInDistress: Asarella gets regularly rescued by either Elihue, Cainen or the Masked Man.

** Gatmiel offers to heal Cloe's disfigurement if she agrees to marry him. Cloe grudgingly accepts, and endures the humiliation and well as sexual assault that come with the deal. This eventually chips away at her sanity.

* [[IntimateHairBrushing Intimate Hair Styling]]: Upon seeing that Asarella is unsuccessfully trying to pin her hair up, Elihue takes her hairpin and helps her. It's a sweet moment that underlines their close relationship.

* ReallYGetsAround: Cainen is shown several times in a pile of exhausted naked men and women, with the implication that he goes through periods in which he indulges in orgies.

* TallDarkAndSnarky: Cainen.

* {{Badass}}: All the Belials qualify, especially Cainen.
** Elihue is a powerful mage who proves his mettle when he saves most of the people of Edda.
** Rea is not only a talented healer and poison master, but she also stood up to a Demon Lord and ''decapitated'' him within moments of meeting him.

* ImAHumanitarian: A Tannan claims to have eaten Asarella's mother. The Demon Lord of the Underworld takes a bit out of Asarella's arm.

* ContrivedConcidence: Asarella just happens to give Cainen exactly the same names as Rea.

** Elihue is frustrated that Asarella only sees him as her father, and attempts to rape her.

* ShesAllGrownUpNow: Elihue leaves Asarella in a Mascan orphanage for three years because of work, and when he comes back he's surprised to see that she has grown into a beautiful teenager.

* CrypticBackgroundReference: The Belials are fond of reminiscing or mentioning events or characters long dead, without really showing the reader their significance. Some never come up again, others end up playing an important part in the plot.
