How the kingdom has existed this long before the latest war is really all thanks to the Queen and the two nobles serving as the king's right hand men like Duke Redgrave. The king himself is a bonafide dumbass like his son, and it was amusing to see him get ignored like the figurehead he is.
Nothing new for the stupid six: more headaches for the royals and even Leon, who basically paid for their latest shenanigans with his title and all of his achievements. Of course none of them are going to die to execution, they're basically Team Rocket level comic relief at this point... except they're not really that funny.
The hero of this chapter: Duke Vince Redgrave believed in his daughter's feelings for Leon and her belief in his suitability to be her husband, even after he chose to throw everything away. Under the pretext of disowning her, he gave Angie the freedom to marry the man she loved. He even acknowledged her best friend Livia as "concubine" to allow her to stay with them.
Even Angie's dad can see all this, and yet Leon himself appears to be stuck under the misunderstanding that the two girls love each other. Can someone please solve that festering misunderstanding already? If Leon were actually dating either of the two girls, or both, I'm sure he wouldn't have given up everything. Thus the duke himself came in clutch to save the main pairings from collapsing...
I might lose it if Leon somehow screws up what the duke has arranged for him, Angie and Livia because of some unresolved misunderstanding. We don't need to drag out the "will they won't they" song & dance for this long, Leon can still have his adventures even as he dates one or both of the girls.
