While I understand this is the tiniest detail to praise, I want to show love to the artist for actually drawing proper Violin-playing posture. The finger placements on the bow, the lifted elbow of the bow-arm, the lowered wrist on the note playing hand, and realistic posture when playing. Small detail no one who didn't play would notice, but major kudos! 10/10 artistic research!

I know that the farce with the recipe had more of a symbolic meaning, but I didn't really appreciate it. The profits from crepe sales wouldn't be significant enough for a prince to care about them, so giving the recipe to the commoners would be a no brainer, since this way he can actually gain something.

By the way, I see Sophia really is an M - at least a bit.
I also appreciate that he's staying silent instead of denying the fact that he knew about her wanting to dance with him.

But as the MC butler explained because the recipe is easy to reverse-engineer, it is better to still be attached to the "trade mark" of being the official seller of the prince.

Yet again: use proper terminology (the translators don't seem to give a fuck about it, sadly). With the internet, there is no excuse to make a hash of the English language this way.

"Butler" refers to the head and overseer of all servants. A male attendant is a valet, a male attendant in training is a page, a general male servant is a footman, a general male servant in training is a hall boy. (Apprenticeship is only for trades involving a formal apprenticeship, usually crafts, never domestic workers.)

The polity ruled by a duke or duchess is a duchy. "Dukedom" is a legal term referring to the land of a duchy, excluding all else, even its ruling house.

And it has the advantage of allowing even the reverse-engineered products to be associated with the prince (like Sachertorte or Esterházy torte and so on).

I don't think that Sophia is necessarily a masochist. She might well just enjoy the gap between Cyril's usual behaviour and him being strict or acting mean, like in Horimiya. Rather, I think that's the more likely conclusion, given her reactions when he's genuinely displeased or disappointed.

Regarding Cyril's feelings: he is outright portrayed in this chapter as being deliberately in denial, due to his consciousness of his position and status. An excellent detail.
