About the knight..Rudiger…
I really don’t like him that much. Maybe he felt bad for Neveah’s little sister or something but how did he not think about how this would affect Neveah.
In other people’s eyes it probably looks like this:
She literally has a bad relationship with her family, and then she comes home to find out her father has replaced her with someone else. Then, not long after that, her sister goes missing right when she’s left with the emperor.
How would that look to y’all?
Mmmmmm…….

And also.. Im not very fond of Rudiger too. I feel like he don't understand how's Neveah feelings. And the way he talked how Neveah don't know the Vinfried's accent language made me mad.
Wht did he expect when Neveah situation like tht in her household? He knew yet he didn't consider it bfore utter such words. It can be a sensitive topic for Neveah

IKRRRR i dunt even understand how rudiger sympathizes with rubiel BUT NOT NEVEAH WHEN SHE'S THE ONE WHO EXPERIENCED MORE NEGLECT AND ABANDONMENT. if I were Neveah, I wouldn't be so kind on rubiel too. At least rubiel has her dad's love but no one except for the ML even cares for her. Shitty rudiger I hate his logic and I hate him as well as shitty rubiel who didn't think about the consequences of her actions. Does she think her presence will make Neveah happy? goodness (╯°Д °)╯╧╧

right like that’s a child and u as a knight have the responsibility to be loyal, if that kid had been any less than kind it would’ve deadass been a whole ass case of kidnap of the heir to one of the largest noble families in that country bringing that child to a FOREIGN country without even notifying the family is diplomatic issues enough like the fawk was that plot hole

Can't help for wht?? I don't understand his logical thinking. The ML said tht Rudiger's heart touched by tht girl and led him to bring along the girl to Vinfried
When I first saw Neveah lil sis, I can feel the unfairness within Neveah even tho she don't show it at all. Ik Im being emotional but Neveah is too kind. She can get selfish sometimes I feel really sad towards her
Chapter 39 and 39.5 can be found here for my fellow impatient folks.
