[Roadrunner9000]

this is the chapter that thoroughly eliminates any and all pity for banache or the marquess household
it also shows that the nogah bloodline carries devil ancestry ( just look at the counts smirks and his sentences)

What does sprinkle the salt mean?

 

[rudrax]

@Athedite to sprinkle the salt is an idiom that means to make a difficult situation even worse for someone.

@rudrax @Athedite it's also an idiom in japan, in olden times (and this actually applied to a fair number of cultures beyond just the japanese) salt was believed to be a purifier of the soul and capable of driving off evil spirits and demons. the japanese would sprinkle salt around the entrance to their homes as a sort of good luck charm to welcome in fortune and drive away evil. now a days it's used as a bit of an insult, saying to put down salt to drive away a person they consider a pain or want removed.

Everyone is (understandably) talking about the stairs scene, but I can't help but notice that Yulia's father and their staff were salting the ground where Ramor's dad walked after he left, which is just absolutely fucking hilarious to me.

Edit: Me and my damn impatience, lol. Just two comments above mine there's someone talking about the salt scene. That's what I get for not reading 'til the last page of comments.
