The Revenge of the Duke's Daughter Theresia - Vol. 1 Ch. 3.2

[MangaDex]

 

[omegaxis1]

A single girl's silver hair isn't going to be enough to fill up the coffers of a country's royal family.
Like, what the hell is up with this b*tch?

And if this guy clearly indicates that he has the making of a good king, why the hell did he marry this crazy b*tch? Don't tell me love potions are a thing.

 

[twilightspirits]

so.... is he really against her spending or just putting up a farce in front of the new maid?

 

[KimmyChii]

Thanks for the update

I mean if you want spoilers i can deliver a few i saw in a spoiler, do be aware however when i say these are spoilers i mean it.

Spoiler

He was in love with the mc, his intention was to imprison his "precious jewel" forever in the palace like the sick yandere pos he is, but the queen kinda figured it out and got rid of her before that could happen, if you want even more idea of how sick he is, he apparently sleeps in the same room he keeps her preserved corpse, might change that for the manga, and frequents brothels sleeping with women who look somewhat like her in some sick bdsm stuff, yeah he's screwed up, as for the current queen he see's her as stupid and pathetic (which to be fair, she is) as such he's being serious and just tolerates her, has no romantic feelings for her.
The queen is just a example of a woman who never got taught right from wrong from her parents and thought the world revolved around them.

@Tatsuya-Kai could you tell me what the mc does?

@Tatsuya-Kai
Damn bruh. Is the novel available in novelupdate? Or you just read the raw?

 

[ekickx]

@ekickx
There's a spoiler thread on novelupdates i read, lays out most of the main events, this story is fairly short (47 chapters and a couple extras) though i do think it's on novelupdates translated.

She figures out how effed in the head he is pretty quickly, unfortunately he also figures out that she's the woman who died 16 years prior reincarnated, she keeps him at arms length but uses him to get proof on the queen and her actions and exonerate mc's name, eventually ruining the queen and causing her to lose her standing, douche king realizing she'll never be his, kills himself to leave a scar on her soul (pretty sure she doesn't care at this point but eh), queenie never learns from her actions and just to spite her kills herself just so the mc can't do it (again, the mc already got her revenge, so she doesn't care at this point.
Demon guy (forgot his name, claims her "soul", though this is a play on words, he basically proposed to her 16 years ago and they are bound together as lovers forever, so the mc get's a happy ending.

@queenhisame

[queenhisame]

@Tatsuya-Kai
Thanks for the spoiler I won't waste my time reading this.

 

[Trezcast]

Why would he keep her if he doesn’t love her?

Also though malicious, the queen strikes me as pretty dumb so I don’t think she planned her sister’s demise alone..

Also if the queen is well-known for being evil why wouldn’t she be executed/divorced/etc...

 

[ekickx]

@Tatsuya-Kai
Ohh thanks for the info.

 

[exxp]

This king who was prince from another country is probably just here to destroy this country?

 

[JWChibi]

High taxes and the coffers are empty? There's about to be a revolution, she probably doesn't have to do anything. Maybe help arm the people and build the guillotine 😂
Thanks for the update ❤️

 

[beazacha]

@Trezcast the current Queen probably was easier to manipulate into breaking the country than the FL, the King is clearly pushing in this direction.

@Trezcast
If you read my spoilers please put your post behind spoiler tags, though tbh i'm not sure if you did or not or just have good investigative skills, so if not then hats off, also feel free to ignore my spoiler tag unless it actually was.

Spoiler

Can't remember the exact reason but the queen forced him into marriage somehow, and considering he has a corpse in his room it's not hard to see how she could convince him.
Sister is dumb, but she did more or less do it on her own with a few helpers, remember the king went along with it thinking he could make her dissapear and lock her away somewhere, queen just more or less went back on her word.
The queen has a good reputation, the majority of the story is about essentially proving she isn't as good as she seems.
