So... lead poisoning from makeup? Pretty common during the middle ages, and plenty of other isekai manga have made references to it.

 

[Madcat6204]

Could just as easily have been arsenic: in small amounts it can do wonders for a person's skin... if you don't mind the risk of painful and debilitating death. Cosmetics in ancient societies contained all sorts of horrifying toxic substances.

The price women are willing to pay for beauty... Oh wait, maybe not 'are'. Were.

 

[Kaarme]

@seekermoc Wasn't it already used by the ancient Egyptians?

The MC actually was quite lucky in this case as well for not being too big a beauty. If she was, that lady would have hesitated more to allow her to stay closeby. But when the MC looks humble, it only makes Gyoukyou look better in comparison.

pg 34: "I assume I am going to be fucked now"

[AckSed]

This is the overtime that never ends, this is the overtime, my friends...

@GingaBishoujo right? She looks cute the way she is!

 

[Podji1002]

Being with a Royalty is a pain-in-the-ass, most of the time everyone wants to kill you.

 

[Glomoro]

Being cute and being up to the standards of someone who is not lacking for choice in any way aren't really in the same ballpark. They're not even part of the same game.

 

[TaengManok]

If she got promoted, wouldn't the bastards who kidnapped her get the money? Or?? 🤔🤔🤔

 

[TaengManok]

LMAO her thoughts though:

 

[HarrazOtame]

@daywithoutgames thanks for that information... btw I think that she's also a Vtuber

@AgentKuga yoooooo

 

[McQuinn]

Hhmm, are they use mercury?🤔

 

[SotiCoto]

Why does she speak of the freckles as if she believes them a negative?

Honestly speaking... if you had to choose between a girl with freckles and a girl without... is there anyone ever who would pick the latter? Okay, so they're not as important as glasses or meat in the right places, but they're still a plus.

 

[pizzalion]

I'm confused how she got there. She was kidnapped to be a slave for the court, and thats just like fine?? Like her kidnappers get paid by the government??? She seems kinda chill about it
