This is so confusing, unsure if it is the tl or the author's fault.
Like they keep on name-dropping ppl, expecting me to remember who is who for more than 2 pages after they last gave a reference to identify the name. As for 'mr burkes' they never even gave any reference at all, my best guess is that he talked to someone (black haired boy) in third person constantly, but that makes little sense. And then there's the "sill" guy?
Aside from that, some bubbles parsed somewhat awkwardly, feeling like they don't quite fit together. Could simply be because I don't remember any details of 'intrigue' beyond 'mc and her shuu and masked guy assault a forbidden room with 2 factions fighting to kidnap black haired dude or kill on failure.', due to slow release frequency. Or it could be because the bubbles actually read awkwardly. We'll never know~ (unless someone were to go and reread everything so they remember more than last chapter)
