@Taylah swifcht I really understand your discomfort, because It seems you believe Shuraka sees Tei only as a parental figure. And this is where we disagree the most. While it is true that Tei was for him like a parent, or an older brother, he was not simply that. In more panels, Shuraka - the child- says that Tei is fair and beautiful - when he compares him to pear blossoms, when he flatters him during the engagement ceremony - so he is attracted by Tei's beauty, and he admires his strenght as a warrior. He has a childlike crush, basically. When he meets Tei again as an adult, he seeks in him the relationship they had before: protection, care, physical proximity, but now he wants it in an adult way. He wants everything from Tei, basically. And for him it is easy, because Tei is exactly the same as he remembers, while Tei is facing a young man he almost does not know, who drastically transformed over the years from a sweet, innocent child, to the absolute ruler we all see. I also noticed that this manhua Is built with multiple layers, and it is easy to miss pieces because of the language and the art, that often implies meanings without stating them out loud.
