what do you mean... handholding before marriage is something preposterous in any ageThe face of a woman being told 'I'll make you Empress!' lol. Or perhaps it's more like 'His balls finally dropped'!
Also, the maids called handholding lewd! Reminds me of a web novel I read where the protagonist's maid keeps going to crazy lengths to prevent skinship (Reborn in Another World, All I Know Is Daily-Life Spells).
Thanks for the scanlation.
yes, after having to distrust one of his own maids, he can still be played not necessarily by Oscar, but by the maid acting as a spy for the POS.I am glad that he wasn't too trusting of his brothers and of the info he got. they ALL want him to suffer in one or other way. no expections.
He's only creating a faction, not running on royal succession. If he managed to grow decent enough by absorbing fence-sitter and allying with Fredrick, it will be a great help.oi oi... we better get that conversation next chapter. we're talking about seeing the woman who offered to become his "mother" and he just went and "backstabbed" her and her son, by leaving their faction and making his own. there's A LOT!!! of juice to be squeezed outta there.
yeah right. not like they'll ever see a 3rd power as a nuisance, or outright rival. and it's not about the faction leader can be trusted or not. there always is someone behind, who can use the opportunity even if the Leader doesn't want it. can you put trust in EVERYONE under him? just like the dumbo that tried to knife him, LEEROY JENKINS style, without any input from someone elseHe's only creating a faction, not running on royal succession.

His main purpose of creating a faction is to not be fully dependent on the unstable alliances.
It's something he has to carefully talk about with his brother(s).yeah right. not like they'll ever see a 3rd power as a nuisance, or outright rival.
In the end, most of his followers are third rate at best. If they weren't, they would already be in another faction by now. Aside from his wife and the yuri girl.it's not about the faction leader can be trusted or not. there always is someone behind, who can use the opportunity even if the Leader doesn't want it. can you put trust in EVERYONE under him?
The other princes didn't give a shit about Rudolph in the first place, aside from the psycho pig who kept bulling him. The one and only thing they care about is the Fahlkrantz military power behind Rudolph. I doubt even after this they will take Rudolph himself all that much more seriously and Fahlkrantz is still what matters the most to them. This could have been within their calculations as well. If anything, their own moves are pushing Rudolph into a corner. Certainly not as their first priority, as they aren't plotting against Rudolph, per se, whom they don't care about, but as a side effect.yeah right. not like they'll ever see a 3rd power as a nuisance, or outright rival. and it's not about the faction leader can be trusted or not. there always is someone behind, who can use the opportunity even if the Leader doesn't want it. can you put trust in EVERYONE under him? just like the dumbo that tried to knife him, LEEROY JENKINS style, without any input from someone else
