Maseki Gurume: Mamono no Chikara wo Tabeta Ore wa Saikyou! - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - The Reason Behind Becoming The Crown Prince Overnight

[Karmichel]

@Rayster, true... But as a political marriage, he chose the wrong path... He public ostracise the princess in the risk of anger another nation bigger and more advanced, made a crown prince an outcast, risk the economic situation of his country because of his doings... As I said later, the ruler of this country is a moron letting him offend another country like that, if he were smart, he would dispose of them in a way that it will be their blame...

 

[Huapollon]

@Olfyz Or better yet, start negotiations with Euro and just send a few gunboats over to Hyme and start gunboat diplomacy, matthew perry did it, no reason why they couldn't. And if they don't have that concept, well, that's why we isekai right?

 

[Nk9bjP4A]

I bet they'll have to buy those sea crystals in Euro currency. Then they'll join the European Economic Area to benefit from no tarrifs. And then the Alnus Hill association will come to Ishtalica to negotiate free trade deal. And then Itami will come along and seduce his mother.

This king be getting it on looking at the differences between the sisters.

 

[aigomorla]

They could use the pretense of breach in promise and contract, miss treatment of princess, and harsh treatment of the crown prince and just annex the port city along with its mines as compensation.

Roll a couple of Battleships and Declare the provenance her's as a lien on the Divorce.
They wouldn't be able to do anything, oh wait they did without Instigation... which makes me Face Palm and question Hyme's government.

But seeing how the spoilers go, i think the entire country is just plain stupid if

Spoiler

It goes so far to make the ArchDuke and his Grand daughter flee, as well as declare war against a much more superior nation.
Well for the Arch Duke, which i assume is the direct brother or uncle of the king, hence Arch, it would need to be something significant for him to leave.
Well I guess making his Grand Daughter the next Queen would be a good enough reason.

 

[kaminomikan]

does she talk cat?
does cat-kin talk cat?

 

[TetsuyaLP]

Is there any explanation why her sister is a cat?

 

[undercurses]

so is the queen a cat tribe too? then the mistress of the king are the human?

the king got his priorities right i see
hes man of culture

 

[onionskins]

lol.. your grandpa fucked a cat and a tree..

 

[Xennith]

I need faster updates >_> I'm too hopeful to wait a month for every new chapter.

 

[aigomorla]

you can tell how many people either didn't read or understand what the word atavism means, and its halarious.

 

[GrimThoughts]

Its halarious indeed

 

[GrimThoughts]

@undercurses It’s probably polygamy

 

[Varler]

And he still hasn't told them that he can make crystals and stuff.

Anyway, I want to see how pissed the king of that little country is going to be at that Earl when he finds out that he chased away the princess of the nearby Empire because of some dumb shit.

 

[sonyalexandra]

Err everyone's so harsh on the Earl's treatment to the MC, the one doing all those harassments isn't just him you know? The Earl is the country's great general, you should understand why he favors Holy Knight rather than Toxic EX. He didn't completely neglect the MC though, he's still willing to train the MC after all.

The actual problems are the MC step-mother, step-brother, grandmother from his father side and the guards who constantly harass and look down on his mother and him. In short, almost everyone in the Earl's mansion. When you have the whole mansion treating him like that, what can you do as the family head? Would you favor one person above the whole mansion? You would do exactly like what the Earl's done, follow the majority and look like a jerk.

 

[Rayster]

@Karmichel , yea I agree, it's quite apparent to us readers, but maybe not apparent to them at the time especially when there are multiple factors involved. I haven't read the novel to the point where the ruler of Hyme kingdom debuts and shows his personality etc, but I'm guessing while most of the nobles and royalties aren't aware of Olivia's and MC's origin and the signed treaty, the ruler himself might be discriminating MC and thought Olivia wouldn't dare to get divorced, or that everyone else outside of Roundheart house is just unaware of the situation where Olivia and MC were neglected, bullied and harassed so they did nothing assuming everything's fine. I mean, it's shown how upset and frustrated the archduke was when he found out about it.

Side note: Kinda sad to see there are still new comments asking about cat princess being a cat figure and grandpa King's taste or Queen's species. Explanations (in the form of spoilers) were already given multiple times by multiple readers but I guess they are ignored/neglected, or maybe my comments are too long and people don't wanna read and skip them, that makes me feel kinda invisible 😢 Oh well, Imma move on as things will be explained in the manga's future chapters anyway (probably).

 

[Olfyz]

@Huapollon The Ishtalica kingdom must ready for war because gunboat diplomacy is more like intimidation to win the negotiation.
The 1st king of the Ishtalica kingdom seems to put some words, so the government prefers peace. This is the situation so far, don't know about the future.

 

[Haythm]

Thanks for the chapter! 🤗
Oh! Intresting! Cant wait for the next one to come up

 

[undercurses]

@GrimThoughts doubt that, the minister is asking the queen permission of some doc. so clearly she got her own authorities and not to tell in kingdom, a king and queen are just one. there are no 2 kings or 2 queens if im not mistaken.
if it's empire, then maybe there will be more than one empress that can hold power

 

[HDNeptune]

I want to read the novel but the TL novel is on ch 9..
there are many good novels this days, quite fulfilling.
