@hedgemoney yeah you have a point, its just that i find when media presents history and tries to make it come off as authentic I always feel wary as it may present an unathentic lens of the period by not presenting it correctly or even worse romanticising it. Like how its pretty clear that Marie...

So wait is it meant to be set in actual history or is this set in a manga/otome game that in turn is set in history? If it’s the former i will pretend it is the latter because i can see my brain spending too much time whining about historical inaccuracies than just enjoying the bloody story...

Did...did they twist that pigs head? Brutal

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun All the other kids with the pumped up kicks You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet

Finally a conclusion after so long....but what the hell was that ending?!? It feels like the whole thing was rushed, which is a bit of a shame. Thanks for the translation though, sorry for the whininess.

Well fuck, cya red dude, was nice knowing yah.

I'm betting the unseen concubine was one of the emperor's previous attempts to rat out the spies. It's probably gonna be something like a dude from the investigation department in drag.

Did...did a motherfucking 10 year old just manipulate 20 year olds

I don’t really mind that the author is developing the side cast and doing some worldbuilding, i actually quite liked the previous chapters that did this but why the hell is it being done now? The main character is in a serious predicament having had his fingers chopped off and bleeding...

For everyone weirded out by the butler not being dead for poisoning, don’t worry. The next chapter explains it.

Ok...that was a pretty lame twist Shyamalan would be proud

For those concerned about where this story is going in the next few chapters

@Mapleowo I would be disappointed if he didn’t.

Lol i love how the father has an epiphany and realises he’s in a shoujo manga and wants gtfo before shit goes down.

A lot of people seem to be pointing at Arcus and frankly I doubt it, mainly because Arcus is a nation(?) that is in the sky and I imagine the transportation method from Arcus to empire would have entailed teleportation or flight. The method of a carriage seems a bit too primitive for mages and...

@R3nAknyght at least this time the protagonist actually has to put in effort to look pretty, rather than the usual “shazam! Now you are attractive through no effort of your own”

Huh, neat. Looks like this story will be fun....or painfully infuriating. But thats the price you pay in japan
