With the prince doubting like this it seems the execution route is not fully closed. The crazy thing is I'm sure he could remember all these times she knew things she shouldn't so it won't be an easy hrdle

Well, doubting her would be normal? It's really suspicious how she knew who the traitor among the knights are! In the eyes of others, she knew information despite Caesar never actually enclosing any information about his struggles during battle. Even the person delivering the letter was not allowed to tell her any details at all....despite that she knew what was going on? Really suspicious/weird X'D Sure, she knows stuff from the novel, but others don't know that XD

It's normal he doubt her.
She don't even know who is with the prince or not, but she tell you XX is a traitor like that, and it's true.

How any would not find this Extremely suspicious ?
If we didn't know her motivations, it would seem the poor guy was just a pawn and was disposed of.

@MasterPannya - If you are referring to my comment, I think you may have misread it. I said the thought of Canaria double crossing him/betraying him NEVER crossed his mind before because he trusted her, which was why he got angry at one of the mercenaries who shared his doubts about Canaria.

But now that the idea is suggested to him, he started doubting her. Doubting her is not through his own initiative. He was influenced by the people surrounding him, doubting Canaria's loyalty. If his soldier never brought up the possibility of his wife being a traitor, he would never even think about it.

You also have to consider the fact that he just murdered Bram, who, as the webtoon stated, was someone who has been by his side since his childhood. His mental state isn't the best when the idea of Canaria betraying him had been suggested. He even considered Bram's family and the consequences of his death before murdering him. So even if he killed him in the end, it does not mean he's not affected by his death, especially if he is his old friend's murderer.

Oof Canaria is definitely best girl. I’ve been wondering how she finds out what she does tho? We never really see that. I love that Cesar has someone like her it gives me warm fluffies inside, and his green hair buddy is so cute!

Nope clearly aware what kind of manga I’m reading!:) and that’s cute but not what I meant, she might know the characters but we don’t see any of the behind scenes things she does which is what I’m curious about:)

Nope just a coincidence; I haven't fully read the comment section.
It's just I'm not used to having mental gymnastics on my otome isekai.

BRO I AM SO HAPPY FOR ANOTHER UPDATE A FEW DAYS APART YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!! Love that she's showing her value as a consort but feel so sad for Cesar to have to kill a childhood comrade ): I understand why he would begin to have doubts about Canaria though considering he would never have thought his long time comrade to betray him but he did so there is a possibility that ANYONE can betray him now--especially he fears if Canaria can also be doubted T__T now i wonder how he'll feel about Canaria asking for a divorce after he returns triumphant DX

Thanks for the update!

I forgot which guy the guy they just killed is? Was it the big guy that was always leading the prince out of the palace during the childhood scenes?

it's weird that she never had any kind of offical duties until now. it's weirder that she never once thought it was necessary to make herself useful beyond being a snitch. girl what are you doing??

the crown princess has been eating and lazing around this entire time? no wonder she's unpopular.

the moment the reincarnated canaria started acting on her own plans the curse of the novel´s story strated to completely change, from how cesar wasnt very fond of her to how he is attracted to her now, from how cesar should have fallen for the heroine girl to how he went to canaria´s side and covered her with the jacket, from how according to the novel he comes back alive to now when cesar loses one of his men (the traitor), now that that has happened what will the actual outcome of the war be?
according to canaria she knows what happens in the story, but that is in the story where all characters follow the set path to them. now that the lady that reincarnated in canaria has started moving on her own i believe many events that should happen according to the story will not happen. i dont think canaria has realized this yet.

Pretty much. The downside of "changing the plot", is that the MC didn't seem to do much all these years. She "lazed around", and "was the most leisurely person in the palace". You'd think that she'd try to strengthen her position within the palace, to the point that she can ensure a "good ending" without completely relying on the novel's plot. Having her own information network was among my top expectations, but my most basic one was to have such a good relationship with the Empress, to the point that the Empress would leak information and schemes to her. My accident or design.

But, nope. The MC seems to be rather tardy, and has done pretty much nothing all these years. That totally means the Prince can fail to return as a hero from the war.
Rather disappointing, I wanted the MC to have a larger role than a lovable woman.

@Solipsist Empress of another world might be to more to your taste, then. You can find it in Kissmanga.

As for this… I think the fact that the past five years have been mostly their growing up plays a role. Even if she had such prescience based on the novel to be a strategist, there wasn't much to strategise about, since they have been kids so far. Other than escaping the castle to train with the mercenaries, I doubt Cesar was up to much, and neither was the Empress. It was in Canaria's interest to not prevent Cesar being sent to war (probably the only scheme of the Empress' in this entire period) because she believes it will backfire on her anyway. So as she requested in chapter 4, living the good life is the only thing she could aspire to in that period, and she achieved that by getting the Empress in her side. All she had to do was feed her inconsequential reports of Cesar's activities, which must have amounted to little more than a boy's antics. I suppose she could have traded information like the identities of the mercenaries, but the Empress would be very suspicious if she knew that, and if she asked Cesar he would the one suspecting her instead.

In her view, Cesar must get the upper hand because otherwise, as she said, Noah will be appointed heir and she will be stuck with Cesar (which is a bad thing in her mind because she thinks he doesn't feel anything for her or that he won't deviate from the plot of the novel); or Cesar will die and she will be sent to the monastery.

That's why she tweaked very little (in her mind) in the plot so far: she thinks all she has to change is her relationship with Cesar, so he will reach a position where he can decide to divorce but not behead her. (My guess is that like in post-Reformation England, divorces were something only available to the powerful.)

What I find interesting in this story is that Canaria favours Cesar for purely pragmatic reasons, and doesn't even seem to be particularly antagonistic towards the Empress. She wants to be in everyone's graces, and who can blame her?

In other words: she didn't spend the time scheming because there wasn't much to scheme about.

But yeah, she doesn't seem to take into account the knock-on effects of her actions to change the plot. However, isn't it a good thing that she intervenes so little, if we think about it? If she tweaked too much with the story, she would lose her foresight because events would resemble the novel even less. And then she would have nothing but her wits to go by, in an environment she's much less familiar with than her opponents. If she wants to tread on the safe ground of knowing the plot, minimal intervention is actually the best course of action. I mean, just being kind to Cesar and sensible would have sufficed to achieve her goal. She only went the extra mile with the Empress because she wanted peace of mind.

In a sense, that's more realistic than heroines who become grand strategists on the spot, I guess.
