Hot take, not all of these stories need romance in them. I loved this one, like hell yeah, shove those "nobles" hypocrisy in their face, and then all of a sudden, some guy appears like "Umm, actually, I'm also exactly like the FL, and I'm a perfect match for her, so I'll send her a marriage request once the situation is over, just so we can slap a romance tag on this." His presence is unneeded.
