"I'm sure the instructors will be pleased to have a recruit from their own homeland" ?

aha. backdooring her way into what she needed already.

Interesting point that her seeming focus on the lion was picked up by Vian. It does give him a prospective pressure point to compel Alicia this way or that, as I'm sure that for all her bluster, she'd cave to threats of harm of death to her new familiar.
Though there's a chance that, similar to lvl.99 Villainess, the nobility of Laval are in major contention with the royal family, meaning that Vian and Victor have bigger things to worry about than this new noblewoman mage showing up on their doorstep in disguise. And, that quip from Victor about whether Alicia would "look down on commoners" makes me think that they also have the interests of their populace in mind. Sure, Durkis nobility are notorious for turning their collective nose up at "their inferiors", but the prince seemed focused in the moment on Alicia doing the same here--so there's a bit of depth to the political climate in Laval, that could prove to have potential.

I guess we'll have to see what happens with "The Tower", and whether Alicia learns about it and gets herself sent there (assuming I read it correctly and the "instructors" are located therein), or if she'll inadvertently end up there when she does something wrong and gets punished.
Lots of potential directions, though.



Thanks for the TL

The lion
will get palette swap
(it's ok, it can change back and forth)



Why? Familiar contract.
Which per grandpa's speculation from hearing his familiar's report, the lion was probably the one who started the process on its own will.
(from Alicia side she just gave it the name Rai/Li from 'Lion' and felt her mana flowed into it when she pet it)

I'm almost tempted to believe Alicia asked for the lion precisely in order for the princes to possess something to use against her. It's not like she wouldn't care about the lion and it would only be a tool for her. It's more like a compromise. She did state clearly she's not going to swear oaths and can't be used, at least immediately, against her original home country. But she also admitted she can't expect too good treatment with such conditions. It was all quite realistic and thus something the princes could believe, instead of someone who immediately eagerly promised full compliance. However, it does leave the princes with the question of how much use she actually is. Using the lion's fate against her gives them leverage, even if it ruins their relationship. Alicia gave them that option, to gain a bit of their trust.

looks at the manga

remembering what I read in the LN

Welp, it seems like the specific details are completely different between the LN and the Manga, but the broad strokes are the same.

Thanks for the TL!

I wonder if all these changes in the manga was to accelerate the events of the exile. Iirc the WN version of this whole exile bit, it lasted about 200+ chapters iirc….i vaguely remember there were parts that could have been made shorter.

No. The writing did drag on badly, but it isn't that long in chronological time.This is why, in an earlier chapter, I commented that I absolutely dislike this clumsy transition in what is otherwise an excellent story. I think the writer labored pretty hard to bury the lack of sense in a lot of detail.

Not only is the idea that a kingdom would throw a high-ranking noble's daughter at a situation that so clearly requires the use of a proper intelligence corps farcical, the idea that they would do it through a conduit that involves turning that noble daughter into a death-sport arena combatant and hoping she survives is beyond reasonable. Worse, that it is her MLs voluntary choice to cooperate with this by helping frame her. None of it makes any sense, so the writer buried it.

The twin princes are in for a rude awakening if they think they can double cross Alicia.

Hello? Have you not seen the manga you're in? She's on every cover, the name of the serie is in reference to her!
Amateurs.
