god damn, I didn't expect my joke comment from last chapter to become true (not word for word, but by meaning).

though I did forget that the queen wasn't Medisfina's mother.
and that 6 month time limit surely will not hinder Medisfina calm her mind and gather courage.

I was also (negatively) surprised that the author choose the stupidest "character is surprised" trope reaction (eh, eh, EEEHHH!?). god I hate that variant...

I expected as much. I mean... think about this from Kaisara's perspective and imagine being in that kind of society. Kaisara is a tough woman, a ruler and she has to keep her country in mind. And a princess is, essentially a tool for politics.

Akira is unprecedented and in aristocratic societies you want to secure an invaluable asset like him by all means. Force wouldn't work on him, he'd retaliate or run. And the queen already failed to bind Akira's father, a mistake she does not want to repeat. She needs to make sure that Akira stays loyal to the country and how would a ruler do that?

Ideally by binding him through marriage. The minimum is to secure his unmatched bloodline. Kaisara has to decide which of the princesses she would order to get Akira's seed or, even better, make him join the royal family. For this task the girl needs to have a breedable, attractive body, the necessary skills to get a baby made and she must agree to fulfill that duty for the greater good. Given how Medis acted, being infatuated with Akira, the queen thought it was a given and love works better than force... but as nothing happened, she has to put some pressure behind it.

Some would call that creepy, but that's how it works. Failure is not an option. Medis and Akira are childhood friends, but if Medis is unwilling or too awkward to produce results, then Kaisara would order the First Princess to go after him. For those who have forgotten - first princess Ursula Stromheim is not just anyone. She was one of Akira's mother candidates, so she's quite a bit older than him. My pet theory on this is that if Akira had chosen Ursula, then Kaisara in that timeline might have managed to win over Carl Rainford by having Ursula married to him. Wouldn't be too far fetched, but we will never know.

That first page, as its a double page you need to have the font size double so it scales correctly, as is it requires a lot of zooming in to be able to read it.

Is the Queen the grandmother to her or is the princess adopted into the family?
Medis was not adopted, she was lawfully born into royalty.

Stromheim, as per tradition, is ruled by a woman (= the queen) and every queen would have a hero as her partner and support.
That's not limited to the queen, other women of the royal family may do the same. In Medisfina's case, her father was the greatest hero of Stromheim, Sword Mayan... and her mother Celeria, was the younger sister of the reigning Queen. Kaisara is Medisfina's aunt.

Now, why is Medis the Crown Princess, when she's not Kaisara's child? That would be because First Princess Ursula, who is Kaisara's firstborn, recinded her rights as the heiress. Since Kaisara's second child, the First Prince, is male, he could not be the successor going by tradition. As a result the closest female relative would inherit the throne - Kaisara's niece Medisfina.

But Medis cannot be 100% sure to be the next queen, the First Prince has his supporters despite all traditions. That's why Kaisara warns Medis to stop wasting time and produce results. As the mother of Akira's child her position would be secured.
