I bet it is a translator issue. I'm not familiar with japanese, but I do know that there are languages where certain pronouns do not specify sex, so I think that was the case in her speech and the dragon merely assumed that it would be a man.I'm left a bit confused. she said "did I say it was a man", but also uses a he pronoun much earlier. was this a translation thing, or am I just missing something here?

If unspecified, when ruby mentioned the "if I can't engaged to him" it should have been "to them". Singular they as neutral pronoun exists, and it's not a new invention (like some believe) but actually attested in old literature, from the Shakespeare eraI bet it is a translator issue.

if the context is already obvious, Japanese/Korean/many other asian languages often omit the pronoun (which can also be genderless) probably making it very hard for English translators. I also personally prefer 'them' but the translator may have wanted to emphasise Big Lady's misunderstanding.If unspecified, when ruby mentioned the "if I can't engaged to him" it should have been "to them".

This chapter outright said there was a barrier around her. Nothing and no one except a blood member of the royal family could get past it.I want to see a flashback of the cleaners tasked with making sure the immortal lady doesn't get dusty. Or perbaps they put a sheet over her?
even dust can't get through that barrier!!!This chapter outright said there was a barrier around her. Nothing and no one except a blood member of the royal family could get past it.
Why does she fail her promise? She only promises to protect the descendants, not making more of them. So after this, she will successfully complete her promise![]()
Being awoken from your nap, being told you've been in slumber for a century, getting info dumped by a monster f*cker young adult, thinking you failed your mission and pleading alliance to the only heir to the family you vowed to protect and then... she says she wants to marry you, a woman, from another species, meaning y'all can't have children if you don't pull some dragon magic, ultimately making you fail your promise.
In fact, it would help her greatly even, since she is tired of being bounded by that promise she made, so now she can end the royal bloodline with this girl and finally fulfill that promise and be free (of course that doesn't mean she won't be sad when that girl finally reached old age and die, unless...)Why does she fail her promise?
