Ok

 

[apili04]

Im actually wondering what’ll happen to the wife of the eldest son. I’m guessing that she’ll just go back to her own family since our mc will deal with his brother?

 

[mimisan]

wait so isn't Klaus Wendelin's grandfather? Well is the youngest of the siblings, so surely Klaus' daughter is Wendelin's mother?

 

[deadline14]

@apili04 she became

Spoiler

mistress of wel

 

[apili04]

@deadline14 thanks for letting me know! Was it because she wanted to or because she was forced to?

 

[Add1152000]

Have we ever been introduced to Wels mother?
I don’t recall him talking of her or to her. It’s never stated she’s dead, its like she’s a non-entity which is weird.
If she’s the fathers main wife that would imply she’s Klaus daughter making him Wels grandfather, but that too seems glossed over. Can’t really follow all this without that one bit of context haha

So I looked online, his mother’s name is Johanna Baumeister status alive. That’s all the information on her lol, literally a non entity

Obviously, it's not the worst translation in the world, and it'd be hard to even call it bad, but it's also obvious that there's a lot of subtext missing from a number of lines, especially in those cases where the follow up makes no sense in the context given. However, I can't say I've come to expect a whole lot from this particular translation group over the years.

@apili04 if I'm not wrong

Spoiler

She's the mother of 2 kids who she had with the elder brother, so when MC does what he does to the elder brother she marries Wendel to give them a good future.
After that, some people says she really starts to fall in love with MC and she becomes best girl in the harem, personally dunno.

 

[Wataterp]

Holy shit! MC's family just keeps getting worse. Is there going to be a development where his father tries to rape his fiances? Because if so, that would be hilarious. Seeing his ass get demolished by beauties would be fun to see.

@Neltharn

Spoiler

IIRC in the anime was different and just have her a place to stay with her sons and helping her with anything she needed but he didn't take her as a concubine

 

[Malikoman]

Do we have any confirmation of those accusations in the novel? Talking about the murder of both guys

 

[apili04]

@Neltharn thank you for informing me about that!

I mean, with how his family has acted until this point I am surprised the others didn't consider the same conclusion as Klaus sooner upon hearing the story about his son.
The naivete, or stupidity, of this group is starting to get pretty impressive. The only way I could see them not doing so is that he is a relatively new character that none of them are particularly close or familiar with and that he may be trying to use them. I do understand that side of the argument.

However, I really dislike it when a character in a story is written to give people the "benefit of the doubt" despite there be obvious and serious character flaws in the suspected individual. Especially when the mc, or at least the main cast, is portrayed as calculating or intelligent (at least for the most part). Personally, I think it is a pathetic cop-out from authors. Despite what the totality of circumstances should have made obvious to the characters in their story, they still want to make the mc a cliched shounen "I will always believe in the best of people" type character either due to lack of writing or not having the sack to break from the norm.

This is how you write predictable and generic 6/10 to maaaaaybe 8/10 manga, not the 9/10+ that many love like Solo Leveling, HunterxHunter, One Piece, Marimashta Iruma-Kun (check it out), the Slime isekai, Berserk and others. Yes I know there are others worthy of that list and some maybe over-hyped. I just listed off a few from the top of my head that are for the most part of the same genre, or close.

@Malikoman
@Dogmans897
From what I remember, this case was legitimately murky in the novel. I think Wendelin's father ends up explaining his end of the issue and it turns out that there was some plot with the fiance and the headman's son that ends up in a fight (with some other people), and then politics with the other headmen result in Wend's father faking their deaths by cliff and asking to marry the daughter to protect her.

But who knows if Wend's father is lying or is just misunderstanding something?

There never is clear evidence one way or another in the novel and the question goes unanswered.

Mod Note: Please use spoiler tags when talking about chapter-specific or future events.

 

[Silvernius]

@apili04 The thing about that...

Spoiler

The idea is that nobles need to be able to produce an heir, and thus need to be experienced sexually. This is particularly notable, as for more important nobles, the wedding night will be observed by a maid or servant to ensure the wedding is properly consummated. The role of sex-teacher is typically given to a woman who is a widow, due to their experience but also because they would not be seen as having an extramarital affair. Lucky for her though, instead of going through just the usual process of that, Wendelin actually treated her so nicely she eventually became one of his mistresses.

"This is not a double bubble"
Huh, this is the first time I've seen LHT acknowledge the double bubbles.

 

[Amariithynar]

@raidanzoup Which is really weird/dumb, since it's obviously him gasping internally at the revelation, then in the next bubble, speaking aloud.

 

[dextersTomato]

OK. I support you old man. Im being swayed by your story and agreed to let MC take charge of that Land.

How ever, MC just want a fluffy life with his fluffy waifu's.... So, making a deal is hard....

 

[Wolvenworks]
