Ah thank you for clarifying! It seems like my guesses are starting to get too on point recently XD but I’m glad I was at least right with what information we currently have! I have high hopes for this story despite a lot of people getting annoyed with everybody’s ages for some reason even though it’s literally called “Lady Baby”. But I’m very happy that my dedication towards this series and that my thoughts (and dedication ofc) corresponds with the current story ;DD
At this point, I think I'm pretty sure the emperor is the antagonist here, judging from the 1st timeline and the present, I’ve seen a few things. Judging from how the emperor acted on Rias in getting the crown, it seems like he wants to remain king and doesn’t want anyone to take the throne, which brings me to the conclusion that Rias’s uncle wasn’t actually the emperor, but took it by force. From previous chapters, its pretty clear that Rias’s parents are dead, judging from how he grew up with his grandma, I can guess the uncle killed his parents to get the crown, which makes Rias’s biological father the late-emperor. Aside from that, while everything about the death of Lippe’s family is still pretty vague, I can take a wild guess with context clues as of right now. I feel Lippe’s family has a bigger role than we expected despite being a Count only, a part of me feels like they hold some sort of secret, or power, an item or knowledge perhaps, in which the emperor wants, who then sided with the temple. And judging from the cliffhanger, the temple wa part of the scheme that killed the late-emperor (Rias’s father). Then again, this is all a speculation with what information we have currently
