are they ever going to start being involved romantically, or is this just going to drag on forever?

 

[Istvan90623]

@whoamist They won't.

This may be the first chapter where I'm completely at a loss to understand what is going on. I get that there's high society drama happening, but I can't figure out what or why.

 

[RosaViola]

A marriage is needed between these two. Dragging this on is upsetting lol.

 

[ArpanaR]

@icekatze I know,right? Seems too jumbled up and chaotic!
All I got was- some guy that worked as her superior came to visit(and apparently Sid and Leonard doesn’t like him), he invited them to a ball, and allowed him to bring a plus one, he chose Lily. Apparently she will be criticised at the so-called party!

 

[maffo666]

and it all stems from noble society not having a fitting spot for magicians in/above their pecking order.

 

[berryoragami]

Thanks for the chapter!!

@icekatze : Her former boss come here hoping to get Leonard to attend the ball that most magicians skip out on due to past experiences.
He basically used Lily as bait, knowing she's unlikely to just walk off on him.

His goal is basically to mark which nobles might be related to the kidnapping of magic-capable children.

Obviously most of the nobles will want to make connection with someone as powerful as Leonard, potentially via marriage for that slight hope the child might inherit his magic power.
But if he shows up with a lady in tow, the...more sensible ones would take note and drop the idea of essentially telling him "Hey, would you like to cheat on your wife with another woman?"

So only those with more greed than logic would remain and these sort would be the more likely to dabble in illegal act like above.
As for the expect criticism bit...well, he's someone of high position, so whoever he bring can be expected to be judged whether she's worthy ofhim.
And the more malicious group might do those 'open gossip' to try and shame the girl into breaking up (y'know, THAT cliche with low self-esteem female lead)

@WhimsiCat
Thank you! That all makes sense.

 

[Joditc]

Hope we get to see Lily dressed up.

Thanks so much for the update! 😊

 

[Cynic]

@WhimsiCat And imagine their shock when they get a faceful of her spirit and sass. (Like the idiot right-hand man of the prince who tried to call her a slut)

 

[Yatsuki]

I know they probably will become a couple but somehow I want her to be single lol.

 

[mcmatsumoto25]

I don't particularly like this prime minister. How dare he just use Lily and try to use Leonard as he likes! 😠

 

[tlmj78]

I have a feeling that it's not Lily that he will bring to the ball
