Not that I'm offending you but you're asking a pretty stupid question here because first of all it is an emperor's duty to have an heir and second if she'll return after 5 yearsand become his lover she'll only be aconcubine at best because that damn master of the tower lady (forgot her name) will be the empress

I am telling abt telling the truth, why she is so cautious abt marriage actually. Bc, okay, in the beginning she could not told bc he would not believe her, but now it is not the case. He would even a little listen to her, especially after kowing that that witch is the black magic user. And OFC I know that he is an emperor, but it is not really neccessary to have kids in 5 years or yes, she could return as a concubine, i did not told abt being an empress, i told she could take care of the future son, so he would not turn out to be killing his dad

Not neccessarily in short amount of time and so on. He even kight have an option to divorse or so or he xould set up that way, or he could found evidence of her use of black magic. Besides, he know abt being her black mage, and they said that death is not enough to pay price, let alone having kids and be married. And the emperor has actually a card of marriyng but not sleeping with her. As she said that ONLY marriage she need and then she would not even lay a finger on princess

I alresdy explined the part abt being asked to not have kids, at least for abt 5 years, or she can told him the truth and he would have st least had a thought, even without believing that the son might be controlled by the black mage, he could even bring up his kid to be favourable to father. Is it not? Especially after her gain of his favor. I mean MC. Also....it is not like he can not take concubine and have kids with another girl with good bloodline too.... though it will be hurtful to MC, but at peadt it is better than having a kid with both devine and black magic that could kill you anytime...

ummm you know they have to deal with the black mage right? you think he can just take another concubine and think that the black mage won't kill her? and idk if it was shown a few chaps back but the black mage is backed by someone more powerful. so even if they stay clear for 5 years, not do anything or whatever, you think the black mage's side would just sit back? erudian can't fight the black mage since he can't detect black magic and the black mage is after his divine powers. it was after all why his son killed him in the first place and why the black mage wanted to marry him, to see if black magic and divine powers could merge. it won't but they don't know that in this lifetime. if they don't have a child, it's not like the problem is magically solved. the black mage's side will find other ways to get a hold of his divine magic.

Still, i dont think that smth would be done to the MC if she told the truth. Bc now, ML just dont have a power anyyything, nor any idea what the black mage is trying. Yeah, point abt concubine is quite right, but what abt other points? Where he could have looked after son, just as precaution of MC words?
Why she can not just say "dont make children"? Is not the problem arised bc of the child? Or at least say i will return after 5 years, "until the son does not kill yet"....idk, whyyy she can not say truth despite him already believeing for her every word....but at least this manga is pretty good. The main character's actions are understandable, and so the ML's. There is little things to call stupid, besides the fact why she cannot say truth abt whats goin to happen...it is not like the god will oppose it...or not like her body will reject her soul after that....well...this is the only thing that this story still can not explain to me, b uh t other than that, the story is pretty good, and i CHEER FOR THIS COUPLE!
