Hmm... I think they aren't reporting the poison yet because they would like to catch as many people possible co-conspiring in the act. Just 'cause poison was found in someone's room doesn't mean they are the ones who got it or are planning to use it at all thus they can't convict the culprit. At most they can confiscate the poison and arrest whichever maid was ordered to get it but not their mistress as they would probably just deny the claim.
Further, I don't think they were teaching Feria to be the kings guard but rather basic self defense and how to stay out of the king's way in the even of an attack. It was after that she said she should also fight on par with the king not just get out of his way.
As for why the head maid is constantly sucking up to Sabrina, its to curry favor with who she thinks is gonna be queen.
lol Yup it was a far stretch, I agree. Guess I was tryin to come up with excuses for the plot holes so I ca keep reading the story cause tbh I really like how proactive the MC is in showing everyone that she's boss. Most other shoujo FMCs bend over backwards to appear good and please everyone around them. Or else they need to be reincarnated/sent back in time to learn their lesson.
ok this story just makes no sense. Why is the castle's (read the King's) head maid deferring to that Sabrina bitch all the time? Why are either of them still around after it was proven what they did? Someone is discovered in possession of poison and they just gingerly talk about it? the Queen is supposed to be the King's guard? (I mean i could go along with this as it makes the queen a badass, but not how it's handled here)
