Does it make sense though? Either:you know, with the gimmick of the story being Sachi's ridiculous luck stat it actually makes good sense for once that her being banished throws her family into complete disarray.
Probably something like a luck vacuum, where she took in all the family's luck once she was born, and so the family had no luck when she was banished.Does it make sense though? Either:
While it's all possible, we haven't seen anything that would suggest either the first or second possibilities and the third one would mean that her having been kicked out didn't directly cause the family's sudden misfortune. Heck, the first one shouldn't even be possible if the family was thriving before she was born.
- the family is plagued with crazy bad luck that was only countered by Sachi's maxed out luck stat, or
- there's a karma force in effect that cursed the family for throwing away luck like that (perhaps a luck vacuum happens whenever she leaves a place?), or
- by complete sheer coincidence the crazy bad luck happened right after she was kicked out and without her presence they just happened to be defenseless against that bad luck.
I'm not kicking the story for it, but I will say there's enough room for more clarification imo.
another option is because they became so rich that after she went away it going back to normal caused them most of the problems the poor harvest would probably go away eventually and monster attacks might have only happened because they had no attacks since sachi was bornDoes it make sense though?

It's also likely the concept of "With great good luck, great BAD LUCK has to happen to balance the scales" was in play (like Konosuba where Kazuma's misfortunes happen BECAUSE his high good luck means to balance it out, BAD LUCK SHIT happens to him) except her 999 Luck actually pushed THAT back as well, but the shit never went away, it just build up while she acted in a way like a "Good Luck" Shield so once she was kicked out, well the Shield was gone and all that accumulating Bad Luck came flooding in! Remember how long she was living there since her birth before they threw her away! They likely got "too use" to the good luck coming their way that when the bad luck happened, it was too late to change!Does it make sense though? Either:

Noble Pride, that and he actually thought she was dead in a ditch or something! Seeing her FLOURISH and in the Academy likely made him more scared of losing his place then ANY FORM OF APOLOGY FOR WHAT HE DID! The Bad Guy's just took advantage because they didn't care about the sibiling conflict, it was more he'd do as much damage as possible which benefits them that they "helped" for the sake of THEIR END GOAL.He's pretty dumb. If he knew that misfortune started after she was banished he should have been trying to win her over from the start. While they had squabbles as children he could have shown he has grown as a person and ask forgiveness. While it wouldn't have been easy she would at the least accepted his apology and he could have worked from there to mend relations between her and his family.

Again, that writing style is atrocious. It reads like an angry screed of a deranged orange clown, rather then objective discourse between two individuals. It's one thing to get excited about a subject you are passionate about, it's quite another to yell at people even if only in text.Noble Pride, that and he actually thought she was dead in a ditch or something!

As you said though, it's because he chose this option and to still hurt her that Sachi now wants NOTHING to do with him or their family! Might have saved them if they tried to reconcile! But he didn't and so she is only reminded of the WRONG they did without remorse and so wants nothing to do with them!
I see it more as a "Good Luck Shield" as long as she was there! But all the BAD LUCK that accumulates when GOOD LUCK happens to "balance the scales" was gathering around said "shield" and once she was removed, well all that Bad Luck DOMINATED any "normal" good luck that could have formed, or her negative feelings towards them (justified) at the time may have worked like a Vacuum as you said! Hell BOTH your and my idea may be a mix here! If so their super FUCKED LOL (Couldn't happen to a better bunch of assholes, especially if I'm right with "both our ideas" as the innocent commoners uninvolved would benefit! Once they were removed as Marquis as the brother said their in danger of losing the title, the replacement came and all the bad luck seem to "focus on them and the territory suffered BECAUSE thy were in-charge. Basically they aren't "CURSED" per say, but it is bad karma coming their wayProbably something like a luck vacuum, where she took in all the family's luck once she was born, and so the family had no luck when she was banished.
Did she actually follow through on taking his magic? The fact the school wanted her there to stop him from rampaging again sounds like she didn't (or at least they are unaware she did)Bonus points with their only heir magicless and now an associate to a Terrorist group and an Expulsion!
That's why I also wouldn't want to rule out them being incompetent. I'd like to think that if you're very rich, you should also be able to use that money to create ways to deal with calamities. Bad things are going to happen and part of a lord's job is to take that into account when spending the people's taxes.another option is because they became so rich that after she went away it going back to normal caused them most of the problems the poor harvest would probably go away eventually and monster attacks might have only happened because they had no attacks since sachi was born
If you can't measure the bad luck that happened when she was there, then how can anyone ever know that there's a counter-force in play? If all you can observe is the bad luck after she left, then you're left with the three options I mentioned. The closest to what you're describing being the luck vacuum that will remain in her footsteps after she leaves a place she's been in after a significant time. Does that mean that the witch in the forest is now plagued with bad luck as well? What'll happen to the school after she graduates? I guess we'll have to see.It's also likely the concept of "With great good luck, great BAD LUCK has to happen to balance the scales" was in play (like Konosuba where Kazuma's misfortunes happen BECAUSE his high good luck means to balance it out, BAD LUCK SHIT happens to him) except her 999 Luck actually pushed THAT back as well, but the shit never went away, it just build up while she acted in a way like a "Good Luck" Shield so once she was kicked out, well the Shield was gone and all that accumulating Bad Luck came flooding in!

So are you saying the family was always unlucky to begin with and Sachi's presence counteracted it? (Which would mean the family was unlucky before she was born too.) Or do you mean that the family just happened to be very unlucky over an extended period of time right after they kicked her out? (Which is possible, but basically just comes down to a huge coincidence that doesn't directly relate to the family kicking out Sachi.)It could be as simple as a lot of really small things compounding over time. Just being conservative, it's been at least 5 years since she was cast out as a child (probably closer to 10) which is plenty of time for 1 bad thing every day to pile up. We don't know how long it took for the Graseil house to fall and we don't know how much of an effect Sachi's luck stat has on the people and environment around her.
I mean it does help that this world also seems to have a convenient spell that can force the truth out of people without the chance of getting a forced confession. If you can be 100% certain of someone's guilt, that's one large barrier removed from people being against the death penalty. Of course that doesn't take away people's ability away from asking ambiguous questions or interpreting answers conveniently. But I digress.Also this is a funny chapter cause it reminds me that this manga was definitely written by a Japanese person who grew up in a Japanese society. 100% conviction rate and no mercy when it comes to punishment lol.
It's why it's a theory or a guess. In the end the Writer will determine if they care! I never said what I said like it was the "Definitive and so all other answers are invalid" But then again, it can also be related to the family in general then her mentor/mother figure! Who knows, it could even be based on her mood as she wasn't in the BEST of moods when they threw her out, compared to growing up where she might have had SOME good will to "those people" till they threw her away to die! Meh let me not get too heated over Theories LOL I tend to get this way when thinking too much LOLThat's why I also wouldn't want to rule out them being incompetent. I'd like to think that if you're very rich, you should also be able to use that money to create ways to deal with calamities. Bad things are going to happen and part of a lord's job is to take that into account when spending the people's taxes.
That said, there's only so much bad luck you can prepare for. But if it's excessive bad luck that can ruin a thriving marquis family, then there's likely something more going on than just average bad luck that anyone can get. And if that directly relates to Sachi, I'm curious to see what the author's explanation is for it.

Just because the headmistress expects the brother to be judged and sentenced like that, doesn't mean it'll happen. Don't forget that people can just say things for dramatic effect.![]()
