"You were all for this plan! She's to blame for everything! All I did was to give her a potentially lethal poison."
I sense a lack of accountability.

"I know he will understand!"
"Do you have anything to say about the assassination attempt?"
How nice. He understands perfectly.

"Why isn't he helping me?"
Why would he?

"...Drink up, would you?"
Perfect sneer.

"What's going on?"
You're being assassinated.

As I've mentioned before, I think Kerbeck should at least be a Margrave, considering his actual status and the location of his fief.

"It was quite enjoyable."
Indeed. This is one of the best scenes in the entire story. Manga version didn't disappoint.

Imagine if they actually knew the truth: "you tried to assassinate one of the seven sages and a national treasure", death penalty wouldn't be enough :finnawoke:
Noble women didn't get the death penalty that often.

The classic method would be "voluntary" seclusion in a convent, to be eventually married off to some convenient lower noble with Promise needing familial ties higher up. Either as a responsibility of the family head, or by royal decree.
Maintains the bloodline, strengthens relations within the Kingdom, and part of the "Promising" bit is that the Noble in question is full well aware what he's marrying, why, and his duty to deal with it.

Alternatively, same principle, but higher up the pecking order, married into a rival faction by decree to take them down a peg because of the associated guilt.

Either way, the stupid biatch would be no more than a brood mare with few rights and privileges.
The Dynastic Game is....rather brutal...

So basically Noble ladies that throughly disgrace themselves are placed in a not so glided cage, turned into what ammounts to an enslaved concubine to bare the children of troubled allies in desperate need of an hier, or troublesome nobles whome you want a valid excuse to punish when they inevitably rape the stupid girl and she kills herself.

Villainess enters the scene.

"Oh, she'll help me!"

Villainess activates friendly fire.

"What? What's going on?"

Villainess activates Mythic hard mode mechanics, and changes server type to "hardcore".

"Please....no...."

"It's too late for all of that, my dear. You've already played your hand."

And Isabelle isn't even a real villainess! This is all just method acting the part she was given so that Monica can be at the school to protect the Second Prince.

But damn if she ain't good at it!
