This story is so damn hard to follow
This is probably the continuation to chapter 32, and maybe we will get a fill in of the blanks eventually telling us what happened between the downfall of the capital and this chapter
For now I think it is safe to assume that this kid Ryuuma is the baby from the downfall of Mizgard arc, since he is a half Albino, which would make him the current heir to the throne, except that the monarchy was abolished i think
Because the arc ended with General Ains becoming the one in charge since the people wouldn't recognize a half Albino baby as heir, and the existence of the royalty became a troublesome idea since the royalist fled the country, and all the other members of the monarchy died
Seems like Yatsuha lost his sanity after acting like a hive mind and having deep dived into King Mayu's memories, was it ever explained why he was able to connect with King Mayu? was Yatsuha a clone of Mayu too?
The gay merchant is the technician/junk collector who was traveling with Yatsuha before the fall of Mizgard, when he meet Ryuuma's Bride, that guy low key has survived a lot despite being just a regular guy
Mario is most likely the kid that has been traveling with the Merchant since back in the day, no idea if his name is actually Mario or if he just took that as an alias, because the "Mom"... Roxanne, is most likelly the sister from the slums, the one that got her brother killed and used as a scapegoat for the execution of the One Armed Ryuuma, and then had her younger brother die fighting the Albino invasion
But we know that she is not actually Mario and Jin's mom, so could it be a cover identity, or maybe she actually adopted them?
