That's a good theory! And maybe Edith told him some lies to make Kai send the original Alicia to the guillotine. It's obvious that she wants to be the only princess.
I thought she was executed because she was his sister and the people wanted to get rid of them both when they executed Kai. not because Kai wanted her dead?
You're right, I misunderstood ^^'
I bet it was the Uncle and Edith that manipulated the emperor into becoming a tyrant so they could overthrow the bastard child of the previous emperor. After all, the crown should have gone to either one of them had the previous emperor not had a son.
(Now here’s why I like the kid emperor)
Watching him now, while he is a brat, that’s really all he is. He’s a little boy who was suddenly thrust into a position of power where everyone has to wait on you hand and foot. Imagine the power trip 10 year old you would’ve gone on if that were you. But that doesn’t intrinsically make you a tyrant.
I bet the uncle kept him oblivious and Edith fed his ego with his then sister may have been the type to just let him do what he wanted.
But here we see him as a kid who, though embarrassed, does care and look out for his older sister in his own way. I imagine he doesn’t step in to help her much because he’s both oblivious and as a younger sibling, assumes his much older sister is very capable.
Even though he has power over her he doesn’t really use it. Sure, he told her to kneel, but me as my younger brattier self would’ve said the same thing to my older brother. Not maliciously but more like “hehehee who’s in power NOW??”
And then when Alicia uses the MOM voice it just shows that despite being the emperor he’s still her little brother and I love it and their dynamic.
I stan these siblings
