"I can't wait for this arc to end so we can get on with the story"
Oh... Oh honey...
This manga is ending in two chapters, max. There's nowhere to go with it and it's kinda clear the author's original goal of having her be a cunt to people with Grey smoothing it out was not enough of a draw.
I love me some batshit insane ojou-samas and I'm not gonna be happy to see it end, but man does this feel like "we're going to end it in two chapters because that's all we get" like the one with the straightlaced girl going delinquent.
The manga is based on the light novel remake, so various things are not exactly the same as the web novel, but it follows roughly a similar route. So this will likely not be the same in the manga. Anyway, here is the TLDR;
They do a duel for the fmc hand in marriage, shit head prince hires some fancy knight, knight gets their ass killed by Gray, shit head prince then gets personally killed in public by Gray and fmc. All with full blessing of the king, so no one can doubt the validity of their victory. Shit head prince then gets resurrected in a dungeon, his punishment being to be tortured and experimented on as an immortal flesh dummy forever.
The big difference between the LN and the WN is that the mc is attending the academy by this point already in the WN, so he already know how to fight and have enough combat experience, in the WN this point is halfway it, while in the LN this part is only half LN Vol.1, focus between both works is different too as the WN is alot more battle harem/combat focused and the LN is mostly romance with no combat or whatever (WN is subtitled as Battle Version, and the author call the LN the Lovey Dovey Version), so mc doesn't have any combat capability even in future volumes, they resolved the cousin issue without killing him but he end up being miserable, they could merge both routes and have the mc still kill him, but that would be a bit weird
Dont this version ends up with grant just facking all this cuz he is a lolycon through and through (still bad), and she ends up marrying with gray, and all this being just a test for both?
... or this is from other story. lets see. Cuz the other option is MC coming with plotarmor/deuxmachina out of his but and saving the day.
Does anyone have recommendations, i’d rather read other stuff than wait for a millennium just for a single chapter release, and also these past chapters rubbed me in the wrong way. So absolutely putrid and disgusting
