@AgentKuga The royal family spread a rumour that the aunt in law (the girl who just got married) was looking at the Hero and therefore is unfaithful, and therefore will bring the family into disrepute.
The prince, who didn't directly intervene, is saying "hey, we can totally stop the rumour going around (that we basically made happen) and get rid of all the pressure on your family, just give your daughter up to me"
And daughter basically saw through the whole thing and said "you idiot, the nobles aren't dumb, they'll see you're just withdrawing the rumour because my father would be giving me up to do so, you just declared war on us, you asshole. No deal."
This just makes him want her more.

omg what is with all this petty gay bullshit the daughter tries to pull all the time, all you need to do is kill the royal family, they are scum, every single one of them is scum and has been for generations, there's no reason at all for you guys not to just kill them and take over as the new royal family. you are powerful nobles and are recognized as a/the hero of the kingdom so you have the people and most nobles on your side already not to mention you're married to a fucking god.
seriously why do they continue with all this petty shit? there's no point to it, what does she expect? that he's going to give up? that he's going to resign as king? that everyone is just going to say "oh the king is a dick, let's not follow him"? what good does she expect to happen with all these little things?

The prince-regent's plot was essentially to put Rovel in an impossible position where he'd have to somehow "sacrifice" his daughter to protect the integrity and position of his family. He would do this by pointing out via rumour that Rovel's sister-in-law (correctly) was being unfaithful (to some degree, albeit not physically) to his brother, isolating the family socially and thus weakening them. The problem is that it's not a baseless rumour because everyone at the wedding clearly saw her rubbernecking at Rovel, but no one in their right mind in a feudal society would've dared spread a rumour (even a correct one) about a Ducal family since they're pretty much one step removed from the Crown. So what did the prince-regent do? He had his mother, the Queen (the only other person of sufficient social rank to actually be superior to a Ducal family) spread the rumour instead. Based on what I saw, the prince-regent's plot was then to offer to help dismiss the rumours in exchange for, I imagine, some kind of custody or betrothal for Ellen that would bind her to the Royal Family (who are desperate to overcome the curse of the spirits).
Except Ellen royally screwed his plot over by 1) her mother hiding away Aria's thorn punishment tattoo on her wrist; and 2) having her openly mingle with servants and other people with her sleeves up, meaning that they could be used as witnesses that the rumour is baseless. So now the one who's screwed is the prince-regent: he could, as he offered, help them dismiss the rumours, but given that high society is hardly made up of morons, everyone would realise that this would mean the Queen (and by association, the rest of the Royal Family) were responsible for spreading what they presume to be a baseless rumour. And since Rovel and Ellen now hold the witness testimonies of the servants and other people in their hands, and Ellen deduced the source of the rumour, they can always come after him at any point in the future with that discrediting fact. This, in combination with the previous King's mishandling of the Agielle situation, would be cripplingly discrediting for the Royal Family (and in a feudal society, that's very, very bad).
So, essentially, Ellen placed the prince-regent in checkmate, robbing him of any leverage over Rovel's family.

"we want the spirit's favor back for our blood so lets act extremely antagonistically towards a spirit and her family to do so"
-villain "keikaku" mckingly
im interested to see how the inevitable romance between mc and prince works out though.

Why is this prince such a freaking retard? His entire family is already under a curse for pissing off 'minor' spirits. Going after the spirit queen's daughter sounds like freaking SUICIDE.
That doesn't even go into the fact that since its known she can create complext molecules to make objects, she could quite easily poison him without any way to defend himself.
I thought about her being able to NUKE im, but there's no way they have the scientific knowledge to even know about that.
@Crim
Not just a spirit. They're going after the quuen and her daughter, lol. It takes a special kind of stupid.

Can’t tell if this man has the largest pair of balls in existence, or if he is absolutely and undeniably mental.

Did the goddess remove arias tattoo, now that she has repented seeing how good her husband looks without the beard? It would be nice if their relationship is mended and the goddess rescinds the tattoo considering it was given to her in questionable terms to begin with, especially considering she was not judged the same as the rest of society and she had no way to know it would turn out that way.
