hrmm it says completed, and i just checked the raw, apparently there is a ~FIN~ at the end of 16 so i think this is either a short story or promo for source material but i couldnt find anything source wise so.

Translation note: on page 10, the soldiers are said to have "recomposed themselves" I'm assuming the original was 落ち着いた, which carries that literal meaning (or a similar phrase). The word I would have used, however, is "rallied".

Basically everyone who bought his cloth is carrying a bomb that he can trigger at will. :pepela:
Now that's someting that is worthy of being called black magic. An extremely useful blessing you can barely live without that also happens to let the caster kill you whenever they want

Just kill that useless fat pig already, no one would complain
While true, it might not make things better.

Ignoring all the pesky moral points of the whole thing.
It could also make things worse if there is no good successor to the throne.
The apple does not fall far from the tree and all that.

Murder is not always the best option.
Even if violence is >:D

There we go. Chekhov's gun fired properly instead of staying a wall decoration. The spikes from the "cloth" ended the spy's ambition.

Saving the crown prince was a very stupid decision as expected. It would've been better written if they arrived too late to save him. But this poor (or rushed) writing doesn't account for how the crown prince suddenly doesn't have the political power now to make bad things happen to the protagonists and Henrietta? He isn't disowned or convicted yet, and there are few if any witnesses to his crimes. He also has a younger brother, so his death would not have meant a succession crisis for the kingdom.

And how does Henrietta suddenly have the power to offer them rewards on behalf of the kingdom? Plot holes, plot holes because this is ending next chapter...
