I love how Rozemyne just traumatized Siggy, no way this man expected such a smack down in the pre-negotiation round lol. His reaction to the library does remind me though that outside of Ehrenfest books are expensive because they can’t simply be mass produced.
I think that in the end, the library thing might have saved Rozemyne. By making it her most serious personal condition, royals can still deny it and save face as “the ones with authority”, while still accepting the conditions for Ehrenfest, as those are minor things that can be easily done.
Let’s see how things unfold.
But Rozemyne is dead serious about the library being non-negotiable.
Poor Sigi didn’t know what he was going up against…
So we’re going to be doing a Dedication Ritual at the Royal Academy. Where there is currently a magic circle in the sky. Yes, I’m sure that will go as planned.
If Roz ends up getting the Gesundheit in front of all the aubs, will the Royal Family think they tricked her? 😨
They already know that using mana on the stage makes the circle show up. Everyone saw that during the wedding and assumed it was for Sigiswald. This time royals won’t be present, so if it shows up again, everyone will know it lights for Rozemyne (and probably wasn’t for Sigiswald during the wedding).
Hildebrand is plotting something, and it isn’t anything good for our protagonist. Rozmyne made all of yogurtland a pen with livestock just to harvest mana from nobles. We still don’t know what will happen to Ferdinand, but at least Rozmyne put forth a conditions to secure his safety. And in classical Rozmyne fashion she demands a Library grater than all the others she had had.
Truly she have put Sigiswald throught the magle to get what she wanted in true merchant fashion.
Once Hildebrand finds out about the adoption and engagement, he might plot to make book addicted Dunkelfelger demand that Rozemyne should be given the throne as the true Zent and she should marry someone who loves her instead of becoming a third wife in a purely political marriage. There’s two years between adoption/book acquisition and the marriage.
Obviously he’d be pretty heartbroken when the plot works, she marries Ferdinand and arranges for Hildebrand to be sent to Ehrenfest as first husband of Aub Charlotte.
Myne just wiped the floor with Sigi. Understandable since she learned from the best.
Honestly the thing I am anticipating the most rn is how and what Winfried fucked up. Since I am pretty sure he did something bad while they’re at the AC but I don’t know what and how bad it will be.
Can’t wait for the next part!
