Oooh, the ship is sailing! I like how everyone (esp. personal maid, the harem ladies) react about the love that grows between them.
I still remember the confession in chapter 8 lol
Romance confirmed. I like them, they are like a family! I really hope they both can survive to the end. This manga is full of surprises and can be brutal on many sides.
As far as I observed, Senmout was really more likely to rise to the next throne. The behind-the-scenes alliance with the queen is enough to give an answer...then their relationship (they even slept together). This is not exactly predictable either, but if Hapsepshut's father is an ordinary citizen at first, then that fate will also work on Senmout.
