Wonder if Cain accidentally pumps mana into his singing?
Security in royal palaces is always lacking in fiction, atleast they had a competent body guard around. Kidnap arc skipped, for now.
Isn't the game story still like a decade away? Maximilian dude would surely be 30, minimum, already at that point, yet would be a romantic target for the high school age MC? Seems like the otome game catered to every audience type.
Liberty was an unknown bastard of royalty, and she gave birth to a royal bastard of her own. And the queen (who was cheated on, resulting in Liberty's child) is trying to get her out of the way by marrying her off to a distant land as a boon. So presumably the thing to do is... have the King take Liberty as a concubine to keep his promise to be with her?
EDIT: Where I was wrong was it's the Marquis' son who had the bastard with Liberty.
