Thats one way to say it lol
But you need to remember that he is still just a duke and there are others who are above him in status. He could shut most people up if they both end up together but do you think the noble society would take that lying down? They would say he's getting arrogant or something and it will be a bad image for him. And don't forget the emperor could just throw onto him a marriage candidate and say that "I'm doing it for your sake".
He has one of the highest status in the kingdom but he just recently got that status. Who would the emperor trust more? A newbie duke who just got the title and a teenager or a child in his eyes or an experienced Baron? Who has helped and made the king notice his excellence.
Of course the king would trust the Baron more.
Even if he has one of the highest positions in society, a lot of nobles who are below or on equal status as him would throw a riot ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Since getting into a relationship with a maid is taboo and something that is looked down on.
In my opinion, Ibee should use their separation as a chance to make a name for herself in this world using modern knowledge and once she has that, she could answer Alejandro's confession properly and not because of the storyline
Good explanation! Thank you
And that
sorry. wrong comment. how do I erase it?
That just comes to show how little you know of noble society, or society in general, lol.
I mean, honestly, how much power do you think alejandro has? He just got his post, and hes a teenager. Meaning: not the most reliable.
Yes, he has a high ranking, but what does that amount to in the face of power?
Not to mention, as i stated before, he just got his post. He hasnt won the people over yet, and how much do you want to bet that there are already some spies inplanted inside.
Not to mention, the king is still suspicious of him, seeing as he doesnt believe alejandros explenation of the curse.
A tainted family name( I mean, the parents definetly didnt help)
Not that much power in tha face of other nobilities( Sure, he has his own squadron or whatever, but im pretty sure a lot of other nobles do too)
Not as much presence in high society as he should have(He was always at home when young, so all those parties and balls brimming with oportunities to make connections wasted)
And a king who, lets just say, isnt the most interested in his well being
And you really believe he can just "shut them up" thats cute
I'll get it simple for you guys. If they became lovers, the story might be just end. I mean he is a duke and he could like shut every people's mouth from talking shit about ibee, and thats gonna be boring af lmao. By rejecting him, ibee make the story longer and more interesting lol.
