I don’t understand why only the older sister is exempt form the succession battle? If it’s because of her health and lack of talent, wouldn’t the MC fall under the same category based on the family’s standards?
Maybe cause she’s not biologically related to the father
Ig the elder sis is like terminally ill or something like super sick. And our mc however got a slightly better body
The older sister is disabled, whereas the MC is able-bodied, but just doesn't want to train as hard with a sword as her brothers because she never thought she could win against them anyway. There's a difference between not being able to train to get stronger, and not wanting to train to get stronger.
It's also mentioned that the brothers don't see the older sister as a competition anyway, since she has a weak constitution, she will die during the succession battle anyway. They view her as more of an easy sacrifice when it comes to the competition.
Now that the MC has her smarts and self-esteem from her past life (had her degree in engineering, which is definitely not easy to get), she's more than capable of competing.
Well it showed that she trained a lot in the past, just nothing developed. Even then her brother looks at her now she’s “no color” in terms of her threat level. You can tell this threw her off because she had trained and recently started physically training again but it still doesn’t show.
What puzzles me is before they started to look favorably on her intellect and inventions they thought she had no power. Since the family only looked at physical strength and aura, which she had neither. So it seems weird that she wouldn’t have also been disqualified/exempt based on the family values.
By their standards the family sword wouldn’t have been able to absorb anything from her to strengthen itself.
Also the whole sword absorbing their abilities is weird too, is it their potential it absorbs and grow or the level of power they have when their absorbed by being killed by it? It makes it seem like when they die by it their power is absorbed, so killing a bunch of kids seems like a poor way to strengthen it. Also the past dukes seem to have died in battle, willingly/almost by suicide shouldn’t they kill themselves with the family sword before passing on the title since they want to strengthen it?
Also if they’ve done this for generations shouldn’t the sword be plenty strong enough already? Especially the current duke seems to only do it out of necessity/duty not because he wants to. Which also brings to question why is he ok with sacrificing his “pathetic” “powerless” youngest daughter? Now having her compete makes sense since she’s seemed strong.
Also it seems like their greatest enemy was that centipede in their domain, now that it’s gone you’d think they’d relax a little…
Also it’s weird that none of the other nobles seem to know that none of the successor candidates can leave the north until only one is left. Like it seemed only the northerners were aware of this.
Like it seems like part of the issue is involved with the royal family, but there just seems to be a lot of inconsistencies that just make it confusing… ┑(￣▽￣)┍
I'd assume it's easier to understand in the novel.
She served those divorce papers up on a silver platter!
The best meal she will have with him ^^
That ghost is so annoying, pass on already (〜￣△￣)〜
He owns the house. He has evil house seller that make you contract with him . He is the guy that started it all and he definitely knows more than he lets ok
Ughh, I hate the it’s none of your business so stop butting in bullshit! They do that so much in these stories and most of the time it’s related to their work! How the hell is that phone of her business, 1/2 the reason you hired her was so you could dump all the other dragon’s training besides yours into her. This ML is so annoying
Wow those gods suck sooo bad!!! Like hey hardly helped him at all, and now that’s it’s over most of his holy power is supposed to fade too? Like have some same gods, he did all your dirty work cause y’all were incompetent…. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
The reward sucks 2 coz they only offer him the choice 2 go back or stay! He should have og stayed in his world! There’s no real reward in preventing the world destruction
What exactly happened to the minister before her? The manager/team leader got killed. Did that balding fat guy just get fired for embezzlement?
Fired lol
The MC and ML kinda annoy me. They are way too passive about the emperor and everything in general. Like when they knew there were spies and only got rid of the ones they were certain of, no get rid of anyone remotely suspicious. You forgive the coachman even though he put your family in danger no kick his ass out and don’t look back. You gave your abusive sister a giant bag of gold??? You told her to take it that it was her las chance but she declined saying she’d seduce the duke. So after she failed you still gave it to her and told her this was her last chance??? She’s had like 3 already? Just kick her out or kill her??? They’re too nice, the duke was supposed to be cold blooded and ruthless, if your family’s in danger tap into that side!
Also MC has like 3 magical bloodlines in her why is she so weak??? She has no powers it’s disappointing.
At this point just revolt, MC and Rere both have royal blood and direct claims to the throne. The MC and ML just seem too dumb
Thanks. After reading your comment I know this is not for me because those are things that would really annoy me
Wah, sorry. That makes me feel kinda guilty!
If you still want to try it I’d say go ahead, but I will say this it’s similar to “Why Do You Love Me When I Refuse Your Request?”
Where they know the perpetrator, but need that like “undeniable proof” to prove them guilty and are kinda passive towards the aggressors.
So if you’ve read that and don’t like it I’d say for sure you won’t like this one either, but if you’ve read it and find it ok you’d probably be fine with this one too.
This kinda gives me My Darling Signed In vibes, but instead of ML feeling “betrayed” I feel like the MC is gonna feel “betrayed” by the ML lying/omitting the truth.
