Based on the raws, I think if they keep it up, they’ll slowly turn Kai into the villain from the book,
Wait the princess and that uncle are trying to turn Kai into a villain??
No, that is not their intention. However, if they keep pushing him and making him angry, they may accidentally do so. Like, you beat up someone he cares about to the brink of death? He’s the freaking emperor, you’d better watch yourself. He may be a puppet, but in the end he still has authority.
They AREN’T. I’m saying it’s an unintentional side-effect.
Yeah I wanna know too. Why do they care if he advanced so quickly? Why is that wrong? What do they think he's hiding? And are they trying to push Alicia and the maid out because they're the two people who are stopping them from controlling Kai?
Make sure he doesn’t advance quickly because then he’ll have his own, educated opinions and make his own decisions if he disagrees with his elders. By keeping him uneducated for as long as possible, they are able to use him as a puppet while the uncle rules.
Ahh that makes a lot of sense
Alicia is about to murder and commit "treason" it something omg and Kai will be like damn i'll help too and then Ares will be like "wow her majesty Alicia is so amazing" the end (⌒▽⌒)
