How to Change Angst Into a Feel-Good.
What if her sister is the duke's daughter. I mean she has purple eyes as well.
And the ML brother killed the MC's mom.
Someone let me know if my guess is correct.

I agree with the theory about the mom’s death being related to the brother, but ages are super inconsistent (like the sister who raised her is said to be 22 at a point, shown as a kid or teenager raising her in over places). Also the ML looked like he was around 8 at least when his brother died, but he’s 24 ? If it’s 20 years ago it seems long
How about she related to the archer uncle maybe ?
I would add another guess too : i would not be surprised if the brother’’s witch disappearance is related to the evil duchess
After all, she thought it’s the easiest way to get rid of her son is driving him to the edge through the witch ?
Nice one with the purple eyes :) i would also wonder about other family members (like the uncle, i would think the brother was too young ?)

I appreciate the answer in advance! I hate harems.

A Harem manga/anime features a main character (MC) who is surrounded by people who love or like them. The "Harem" can consist of any number of people. It's common for the MC to be oblivious to the romantic feelings of others because they see the other characters as friends. This theme is prevalent in many manga and anime.

Is that so? But I would still say it's not really, since when the girls like him, most of the sentiment is "I wish I had become his friend sooner, cuz there's no one else like him", with how he breaks down the walls of prejudice, he's almost like a savior and a monster bc of his strength. He's mostly treated like an absolute weirdo by others. I haven't seen anything like "I wanna marry him, or I wish he were mine" kinda thing so far

I am glad that jay is the ML because I don’t like when there is a power difference between them. Ian is her subordinate. We don’t really think about it but due to the time period this is set on ! It gives me the ick! There is a reason why workplaces forbid romances and if you want to look in to it, look for power dynamics in the military and why they forbid romance.
Sorry for the long message
The Empress’s Beast Selection is it worth reading?
I mean, it isn't a masterpiece or anything. It's kind of I have nothing better to read ATM and I've come this far why not stick around kinda read to me.
thank you for your response (▰˘◡˘▰)
