posioning water supplies? damn girl, you're evil.
Well... it is her power, sure it seems that the tactic was thought by her mind, but her power forced her to say it... like we all have that one very inhumane idea to achieve a thing, but we don´t say it because... well, it is inhumane, but with her, if the king wills it, she will do everything, same thing with the marriage... she does not want to do it, but can't go against the king.

On the other hand... this MC is already in the capacity of just fly over the castle and just scare everyone with sheer power... but nothing happens?, well the marriage is already a thing, so I hope the meeting is near

I read that a little differently.

From my understanding, she can choose to disobey. However, she would lose her skills. That's the drawback of her class, same as the "dark knight" has the drawback of spending her life force to fuel her skills.
As long as she intends to obey orders, her class will give her the means to do whatever actions are required.
So, she can refuse an order from the lord she pledged loyalty to, at the cost of becoming essentially worthless. And she sees her worth as a knight as a way to protect her friend and her home village, which is why she went along with those inhumane orders.

Of course, these dumb people she blindly trusted her oath of loyalty to are now cornering her with such absurd demands that she's doubting her loyalty and borders on mental breakdown. They take her loyalty for granted and see only her as a "class" to the point that they ignore the "person" behind the oath and class.

So, either she will break down and just become a lifeless husk simply following her orders and skills, or she will eventually decline an order and attempt to flee after losing her skills.

Why is she talking like he's so important to her, when she doesn't even know he was kicked out and almost killed in the very Palace she works ? 😐

Also saying she isn't and fault and being "forced" to do something she doesn't want, while apparently having been the one to bring up the poisoning in the first place do be kinda hypocritical 🤨

Here is me coping she isn't part of some harem for the mc, kinda don't like her 🥲
They make sure she is busy and uninformed.

To make it a bit more clear, it seems like she doesn't know MC was exiled, the country is stupid, but probably realized they are friends and kept it hidden.
Her power seems to be connected to a country leader, can't be used for herself, in exchange the power is extremely high, years passed from the ceremony so she of course gave the loyalty to the king, not knowing he was trash or his future plans.
The village she and MC come from is hostage, so even if she decides to leave she would have probably no access to her powers and her family would be killed or used for blakmail.
Is possible the king order even works from a distance if she doesn't break her loyalty vow, and seeing this serie doign so would probably give her some punishment, bet that MC will have to bring the horse out to soften the blow.
And again, she doesn't know, insane the king decided to make her some other guy fiancee without asking, but we have seen he is a massive, stupid piece of shit.
Checked the raws and MC main tamed creature wasn't what they expected, but he had other stuff the kingdom knew for having trained him, a exile was retarded.

It's also my gripe. She gave the idea first, but then she regretted it. Her personality changed as if she had dual personality.

So her powers force her to, similar to the power system of "To be Hero X" but change "your power is based on what people believe of you" to your blessing forces you to do x thing (say you've the thief profession and it makes you steal or lose yourself when seeing gold).

I might've glossed over something but I'm somewhat confused. This kid went out and got his dragons and now has the idea to save his Childhood Friend... But instead of doing that it's really starting to feel like he's doing whatever he can to NOT achieve that goal. As it stands, he can literally just stroll up to the capital and force them to let her go.
This MC has a serious case of not-doing-anything-until-someone-makes-him.

I commented on this earlier: he has no agency. He has this taming ability, which he is quite good at... with new and clear signs that he had a lot of value to the kingdom even before getting the lizard-that-was-totally-not-a-dragon-princess. (Which makes his exile doubly stupid now.)
He didn't choose to leave the kingdom, he didn't choose to get a super rare (and prophesized) dragon princess, he didn't choose to tame a dragon the size of a country... Despite his cute little speech about "you can't choose your power but you can choose your life", he hasn't made any choice at all past "I'll keep the lizard" at the very start.

So he will probably save his childhood friend. Eventually. When the plot makes him. Through someone else's choice.

Her class makes her completely loyal to 1 person and grants her power based off of her loyalty... but the target of her oath can just be changed without her consent? That seems like a very stupid power. What happens if someone steals the knife? Could I just, steal the knife and order her to kill the king? The person she swore her oath to?
posioning water supplies? damn girl, you're evil.
It seems like her class compels her to do whatever it takes for her "Master" so it wasn't actually HER that suggested it, it was her power.

I don't think the loyalty shifts. The dagger is just used as a symbol that the wielder speaks on behalf of her liege.
It doesn't grant authority greater than the king, and can be ignored if there is a strong hint that it was stolen.

That's my reading of it though, I might be wrong, particularly when magic is involved but not well-defined.

Also, I don't think her class makes her loyal. It conditions her power to her loyalty.
The difference being that she can still choose to disobey. She just has multiple incentives to stay loyal (her skills, her village, her friend), for now at least. The war crimes were tolerable on the balance. The forced marriage might be a step too far.

Indeed. It seems that the loyalty dagger is just a symbol that represents their King's will - in other words, the King gives it to someone so they may use it to carry his will to the Sword Saint. A sort of proxy.

Argus showing her the loyalty dagger means that their marriage has been decided by the King.

As for her suggestion to poison the water supply... I strongly suspect that her oath of loyalty that her power requires means that she will be forced to carry out the King's orders whether she wants to or not. In other words, if the king orders her to mutilate and kill a liter of puppies, then her blessing will force her to do so despite it being against her wishes.

EDIT: This would explain her horror upon seeing Argus holding the loyalty dagger - even if she doesn't want to, her blessing will force her to accept their marriage. Even worse, because of this her wedding vow can be construed as an order from the king, and it will turn her into a puppet by which Argus can order her to do anything he wished so long as it doesn't contradict the King's orders. She will become a puppet, mindlessly doing as Argus pleases, while she is trapped within her own body.

Lastly, we need to be a bit more careful in discerning what is actually happening here because this is obviously a very poorly executed MTL. I'm seeing a lot of misused words, incorrect pronouns, and poorly spelled words that implies not only MTL, but also a poor understanding of the English language.

oooohhh, ramping up the drama and while our bad people are reallllllllly bad, we also have a little ambiguity with our little Aria, who did something rather wicked...
Also, did the bi-horn clear up the poison, or is that still a thing?

This story is boring as fuck. MC is dilly dalling without a single fuck/care given. Entirely in his own world - doormat pushed around by other people. His crush has no idea he was kicked out of the country, and of course her ability makes her basically a fucking slave.

It will of course end with MC "fixing" her ability to lose the slave element, and she will probably be free to move her loyalty to him, only question is if this will be soon, or at chapter 100 with MC already in 100 girls harem/kingdom made out of girls he "healed" like Eris and all the mystical beasts he tamed like dragons and Valkyries.

Cant really compare this to other similar mangas, cause I either dropped them, they got axed fast with meaningless rushed endings, or there is enough difference I would argue the similarities only end on the "kicked out" part.

Can we off this guy soon? That would make me quite happy. The king can go in as a bonus too.
Nope,, the author will drag this as much as possible... i bet the next chapter tells us how sad she was while resting before preparing for the next invasion... and then chapter after is how sad she was while preparing for the next invasion.. and the episode after that tells us how sad she was as she leaves for next the invasion.... and so on and so forth..

The whole class/loyalty/power thing is easily resolved.

Of course, that would mean MC stop gallivanting about and actually growing a spine, and the FMC to stop being a dithering -dere and grow an actual spine.

Which isn't going to happen in this tropey mess before Axe-kun will do its job for them.

I mean she will obviously be saved and then grant her loyalty to the MC (as a bride or friend). The village will end up protected on the dragon and he will become a king of his own nation. The king and beast tamer that kicked him out will suffer consequences of feel bad and lose war but nothing that will actually happen.

Yeah, after we've been NTR baited to hell and back. Author isn't even bothering to come up with a valid reason why the MC hasn't already went back and murked everyone to rescue his CF, he just wants to lazily insert his god-awful fetish.
