Man, they had a good thing going on and an idiot just had to appear and ruin it...

 

[razorshaleh]

poor for listiane

thank you for translating

 

[mokonaarappa]

stuuuupid prince
idiottt

 

[PrivatePublic]

So rare to actually have a half decent, competent king in these stories. Of course they had to add an idiot prince to ruin everything, only way to legitimize making the princess the new heir to the kingdom.

 

[Xzayer]

Slap the prince. You had such a good thing going for you

 

[Med1um]

Lol, and that was poor sickly little girl, deemed as useless burden

 

[RakshaJaeger]

The king, the princess and the lady knight chief are somehow smart, but all the people around them are extremely stupid…did he not see the fucking wyvern outside ?
Thanks for the translation

 

[Cubicle255]

ok

 

[johnpoop2529]

These annoying ass characters are making me wanna drop this

 

[BigPoppaEffy]

"Do try not to offend his majesty"

"So old man, you the king?"

Bruh...🤣

At least the prince didn't ask for a duel?

 

[lesseffective]

It's all so tiresome...

 

[LuckyNChance]

-inhales-
BOI!

 

[Phaaze]

UH OH!

Spoiler

It was all going too smoothly. So of course, a cliche wrench had to be thrown in...

 

[Mandobard]

Time to toast the prince

I really hope he just walks out of negotiations. The kingdom has nothing he needs. The kingdom can't keep its representatives in line, meaning any guarantees with them are worthless. This is a complete loose/loose for him to continue negotiations. Or worse, a trope like a "duel" or "demonstrating your power". Works in fiction; not in reality.

I wish JP authors wouldn't have their "oh so humble" MC act like morons "for the plot", or fulfilling a template trope. Having MC walk out of negotiations would be equally as interesting a plot vehicle. Yet few of their authors thinks this through. Completely forgetting people obey authority only because of the threat of enforcement through violence. Maybe because target demographic is children, not adults? Who don't comprehend that, or who they try not to teach that?

What happens when a weaker kingdom attempts to insult a larger empire, or country with larger army? Or in this case, literal demispirit?

Unless there are political, economic, or social implications -- kingdoms kill the men, steal the women, and take the wealth. That's literally how every single human society, tribe, and group has worked since the dawn of time. The only thing stopping it in modern day is social and economic considerations. In medieval/tribal era, it was simple war.

I need to reread to see what MC's motivations are. I thought it was security and safety of his sisters -- and possibly a sense of responsibility for the kidnapped girls. Maybe I'm mistaken.

(Edit: Rereading Chapter 1.2 -- it seems MC/author has indeed lost the plot.)

If anyone doubts my commentary, just see Chapter 2.2 Page 4. Spirit Queen is a proper Queen, and is in-universe for series tone.
