.. what is it with those Chinese series, where it seems everybody is cruel and mean and their actions goes way beyond bullying, except MC and maybe a single good hearted servant?
Does life really suck that much there (I don't believe that), or is there some romantizied idea about this setting that i just don't get?

Uhm.. I think we should cut Ripley some slack in this chapter, 'cause let's be real:
While this probably wasn't the best plan, I think many have tried to strut around with a fake lover under the arm at a bar/party/whatever, just to get rid of some dude, who didn't get the point. The stupidity here is the duke who's so obsessed over Ripley possibly ditching him (again) - and what to learn from this? Just don't let your love interest do this 'job' for your friend.

Yay, thank you for this mass release! :D
Looking forward to more chapters (yas, is greedy ;)
I love the demon family, so adorable. And while MC is op I really don't mind, as it is not just for the sake of being op. The humor so far has been really well paced - wanna see more pranks on whoever comes into MCs vicinity <3

Wait - Tara should 'only' be around 90 kg / approx 198 pounds - and 4 guards???!! I mean, how weak are those supposedly trained guards? 2 men with avarage strength (not trained) should be more than sufficient.
And thank you for the update - love this MC. Heart of the servant - captured, next: capture the prince's heart!
This is rather immature storytelling, I might have bought all those attempts to fluffyficate and cutify a dysfunctional royal family and their discussion of killing a baby had I been pre-teen.
This is just bad, the story hasn't even started, and I already got an headache.
I hope other readers get far more enjoyment out of this - GL!
