I don't think that kind of surprise is in the same level, King. Any time Cain surprises you, it's because of his inhuman abilities. After a while, if you're still being surprised by his feats, that's your own fault. Withholding the fact that his sister is getting married to your son? That's on another level of surprise, it's not even comparable.

That said, I hope we get an answer of why the sister specifically singled Cain out and wanted everyone to keep it a secret from him. Seems kinda mean, if you ask me.

oh her older sis actually fall in love into someone else? lol.. that brocon?

and the progression of this manga is bit ridiculous because this kingdom is way too peaceful. The nobles should be responding stronger when knowing both father and son are Margraves that can technically wipe out the royal family.
Seems like this king is very confident in reigning Cain until he comes to age.
Should he worried that Cain might one day usurp his own successor to be the new emperor?

ALMOST strongest? MC summoned the fricking demon king as a familiar by mistake, and his kingly reaction was to KNEEL in awe and fear.
If he enters demon territories he might pull a "Shanks on Whitebeard ship" without even trying
He summoned one of the Demon Lords. The Demon King is a different title in this story. The story delineates it for certain reasons, which you'll find out about in this arc.

Thanks for the explanation.
A day may come when I bother learning the differences between "fantasy demon noble rankings" used in manga's, but it is not this day

There usually isn't. It's just that this story models it more after feudal Japan, with the Demon Lords being the equivalent of a shogun, and the Demon King being the mikado. Although afaik there was never more than one shogun at a time, but you can chalk that up to the author taking liberties in the storytelling. Power-wise that's what it's equivalent to though.

Normally in Japanese fantasy storytelling with this kind of theme, there's only the demon lord and his 4 generals, with the generals being loyal to the demon lord.
You could see Seto summoning his "arms" (which would be the equivalent of his "generals"), when there was a monster flood led by Aaron in his dragon vessel at the time, which tbh indicated that the author hadn't yet really decided to go with the demon country's hierarchy as told in this arc at that time.

Then you've got that Marineford religion and the Papal State being modelled after the Papal State in Rome, the Esfort Kingdom being modelled after European monarchies, and likely the Baisas Empire too although it hasn't really been shown yet. There's also the Beastman country as well. Oh right, and there's of course also the Republic of Ilstin.
The author clearly took a lot of inspiration from the real world for the systems in each country.

How to become Emperor? Why go to war if you can just marry every Princess that happens to be around? ;)

Cain will eventually become the holy trinity of Isekai: Apostle, Emperor, and Demon Lord. :ROFLMAO:

Why does the King call Cain “the head of the royal family of Esfort” and then recite his name as Cain Von Esfort rather than Cain Von Silford Drintor? Esfort is the royal family name.

Translation hiccup or did something happen behind the scenes or is this because of the Teles engagement?

My money's on her having a marriage partner decided in the demon realm that she very much does not want to marry.

Translation hiccup, the king is referring to him being the head of a noble family of Esfort.

I still refuse to believe that his brocon sister is engaged to someone that is not him. I guess time heals all wounds or something.

That and I swear this Manga has a split personality issue. In this chapter thankfully they were able to convey their reasoning much better than whatever nonsense we had prior. I still think that either war or at least crippling their country was the best option as they did attack the royal family along with High ranking nobles, add to that the fact that when our dumbo hero tried to resolve it first time, the Republic failed to uphold their end and the guy instantly went back to attack and enslave him along with the remaining nobles. :win:
I don't even remember seeing that prince at all

But he still calls him Cain Von Esfort Drintor. That is very much not his name, and the King gets it right on the very next page, calling him Lord Silford.

I feel like this is just a means to an end, giving a convenient ending for the brocon sis. Especially since someone said the WN dealt with it worse.

It did feel out of the blue. The brocon sis, well, apparently had mutual interest with someone who isn’t the brother.

It does make perfect sense from a CK3-poisoned brain. Someone as powerful and increasingly influential as Cain? TIE HIS ALLIEGANCE DOWN WITH AS MANY MARRIAGES AS POSSIBLE.

Because from a political standpoint, the Silford clan is officially A Problem -- the nobles are right to protest that the King is concentrating enough military force in one family to raise a viable revolution. Because in a feudal society, as soon as you don't have control of the majority of the troops, you're not in charge any more. Even if they don't revolt right now, no future ruler can do anything that pisses the Silfords off. They've got a permanent veto on what should be an absolute monarch. And the way you handle that is, you make them family. If there's Silford blood on the throne, you don't need to worry about pissing the Silfords off.
