I'm still unsure about the sister, how much of it is Karina being an unreliable/mistrustful MC, and how much of it is the sister scheming (if any). We're still very much in the dark about her herself, so I'm curious if she really is a white lotus, a secret ally, or something more complicated.

No, no, didn't you see the caravan? Karina told them all to scram back to the capital and had Reshutoka bury the castle for good.

And now for the scorched earth revenge, if the queen throne won't be hers, then nobody else will have it :win:
Well, to be honest, I’m confused about who actually caused it. Was it the sister who triggered the avalanche?

The maid mentioned “tremors again,” which probably means a bomb, so it’s not the first time, or was it Reshutoka?

If it was the sister (the one who said she’d kill for the prince) then she was basically planning a mass murder, including all the maids.

I wish she is actually a smart villainess, it's been a while since I see and an actual rival in villainess story, instead of another "well, I'm actually always help you from the background and now we are good" character.

I wasn’t expecting her to ask Reshutoka to BURY THE DAMN CASTLE. Was it right after they left? Or did she wait for the caravan to arrive? I mean, it’s still quite vile to make them run away in the middle of an avalanche instead of waiting to be sure the castle is vacated.

I understand where Karina’s hatred came from, but it does leave a bad aftertaste when she’s treating the maid that way. The maid might not know about the family beef...

And honestly, Aurora came to the castle, heard Karina has been fucking MISSING and just… made the place pretty. I don’t think she thought Karina would come back, since she knows the prince sent assassins after her — Karina could have “succumbed to the elements” just like the mercenaries did and they have had yet to find the body. To me it seemed like she was reclaiming the castle. “Oh she’s gone so our family’s castle is vacant, let me give the maids a sob story and say I want to make it pretty for Karina while I am actually expecting to come back in a few days to my new winter vacation house and hear that she’s still missing before the Kingdom declares her dead.”

Don’t get me wrong, Aurora could care about her sister, but in my head if she was really worried she would have stayed until Karina’s arrival, not gotten to the place, receive the information she’s missing, renew the whole damn thing and then LEAVE. I think she assumed it was a lost case and moved on rather quickly — I do think she was also under the impression Karina became a bad apple, since her parents probably fed that to her, y’know?

Now, I wonder how the kingdom will react to the maids reporting Karina showed up with a random ass girl with ANIMAL EARS and said “I’m living with her now”. They will send people looking for the Wolf Tribe, won’t they? Karina unintentionally exposed to the damn kingdom the location of a small population they thought to be extinct — and while the Royal family might now they still exist, people like Karina’s family don’t. I really do hope the balding prince doesn’t ask for the guard to annihilate the tribe out of spite. Here is hoping he assumes Karina was tricked by the beasts and will soon be eaten alive (not wrong, but not the type of eating he'd be thinking).


About the castle being destroyed, it confused me a bit because the cover shows Karina in a palace-like place, so I assumed her and Reshutoka would be coming back and forth from the tribe to the castle or something. Yeah, the cover could just be for artistic purposes and stuff but WHAT IF PUPPY WIFE DEADASS BUILDS A CASTLE-LIKE HOUSE FOR KARINA NOW????

"Guys she is a PRINCESS for real so the PRINCESS needs a CASTLE!!! We need to learn about human architecture NOW!! QUICK! Otherwise she won't let me consummate the marriage for real."

Edit: Now looking at the cover it could be the chalet she's building but with a FUCKING throne in a room with big ass windows.

Chapter 2.2, page 17, Reshutoka roars and causes an avalanche to deal with the assassins. In this chapter, another avalanche hit the castle and Karina thanked Reshutoka :pepehmm:

The sister is absolutely a siscon, and Karina is just too caught up in herself to realize.
