Akuyaku Ouji no Eiyuutan - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - It all Started with the Broken Engagement

[HYBRID_BEING]

So, who actually bullied Ms. Commoner?

 

[Seraphus]

Why bother getting engaged when he is already FULLY MARRIED AND COMMITTED to the idea of being Prince "Baddy McBadPoopy" at all costs?

I mean... Sorry, but... Look; I really do like the premise, I just... I can't comprehend demanding that bad things happen to one's own self. Bad shit happens enough, and taking blame is an artform, yes; but... demanding it?!

Like, who stubs their toe on a wall, and then kicks the exact same corner as hard as they can, specifically to break their foot as much as possible?
Much less doing so because some passerby or family member says your foot looks broken?!

That passes beyond mere Political Chicanery, and goes off into Severe Mental Illness.

So it's how this author is digging the "I'm O-F-F-I-C-I-A-L-L-Y stealing your newly ex-fiancee for marriage purposes !! " trope...
Brilliant so far !
