They cut out a minor bit from the novel with the maid at the beginning when he’s running through the dark to get to Aura. Just like Aura‘s personal maid, this maid is basically a ninja. Also just like with Aura’s maid, Zenjirou fails to notice even though she runs full speed ahead of him while facing backwards and holding a lantern to light his way.

We are going to continue to get way to much lucrarzia aren't we... I can't see her as anything other than annoying and would prefer she disappeared from the series. Literally anyone else would be better. Id rather he'd marry chief mate Magnus.
Would be best if she died on this trip, should never have added some little girl to the plot

In another chapters comment section, it was brought up that she did not exist in the original web novel.
It would be weird if she got something that major of a role in the cast

Yes, exactly. As you saw, i already checked the meaning of the name, and understand from where it comes. BUT! There are tons of japanese names that have the similar meaning without being so weird.

Actually nevermind, after googling it, it looks like that name isn't exactly as rare as i originally thought. Somehow, with my years of extensive weeb'ing, i missed zenkichi from medaka box, persona 5, and megami tensei... Before that manga, literally never heard this name ever - neither from anime/manga, nor from actual people from japan.

As saying goes - looks like i need more training :D
It also has part of Zenjiro's name in it, so there's that.

The LN would be what matter, not WN. Since a lot of series made changes transitioning between them and adaptations take after LN mainly.

A few examples with varied takes I can think of:
Overlord straight up toss the more comedic/silly take of WN and went full serious for LN.

Lazy Dungeon Master shift around events and their impact (it make sense later)

I'm a Spider, So What? diverges in route from the WN, though I hear it eventually converge back for later part.

Royalty is considered separate from Nobility, even if the majority of the nobles are blood related to the current royal family.
That's my point. How many steps away counts as still being royalty? And should the royal family die, how does it change?

What you said would be like saying the King/Queen of England is part of Parliament, or that every member of Parliament has the same authority of a King/Queen.
Not at all. Those aren't related in any way similar to what I said.

Hierarchical lines have to be drawn, otherwise what is the point of having a King/Queen in the first place?
That's a very reductive statement. There are so many reasons to have a king or queen there's no point in listing them.

Usually it's the actual Royal family, plus any direct (once or twice removed) blood-related Ducal families are counted as Royalty. Any rank below that is considered nobility.

If the entire royal family, including Ducal family members, gets wiped out, there are two ways it can go.

First, the nobility will either fight to claim the throne, or will choose the one that gives the best bribes as the new King/Queen, and a new royal line starts.

Second: If the royal family of a another country has blood ties to the fallen one, they can attempt to annex the throne and country themselves. This is what happened when the royal family of Portugal died in the 1500s, the King of Spain was related by blood and took control of Portugal.

Even in another world he's still living like a Japanese Salaryman, getting pushed around by the people in power, having to travel far away from his family even after a recent birth.

It's more that adding a character to the main cast that didn't exist in the original and giving that character such a central role doesn't seem like something that would happen.
That would butterfly the parts of the story that happen afterwards a lot.
Tbh, maybe she just gets married off in the north to a noble of there or something, I find it hard to believe a cast dynamic would be shaken up for not that much of an effect.
If there are any LN readers of this, I wouldn't mind getting spoilered about her in this context

Royalty is part of nobility. And it's not like cases where someone skirts the edge there is unusual. Bloodlines have so many layers it's hard to say where it doesn't count anymore.
No, royalty was a social class distinct from nobility. Anyone part of the ruling family was considered royalty, even if in practice his/her influence was nothing special compared to powerful nobles. It's true there were overlaps, due to royals (at least those far down the line for succession) marrying into noble families, but it's not like those classes were intrinsically linked. Rylaty was, a least in principle a class above nobility in standing, just like nobility was for commoners.

Being part of a fuedal society is by definition getting pushed around by people in power, unless you're the monarch of a regional superpower and there's no transnational influence (like the church was in Europe) to push you around.
