isn't that guy at the end of the chapter who "believes he did the right thing by protecting yuri-sama" the one who literally held iris on the ground in a hold. she's a weak noble girl, it was completely and utterly unnecessary to become so abhorrently violent! and, in front of so many people too! you basically publicly pinned her down to the ground, what kind of justice or protection is that??? all of the 2nd prince's faction have terminal brain rot.

they literally both molested her. no actual, sane, real-life woman would allow them to continue being close to her or even REMOTELY fall in love with them. this isn't cute AT ALL, it is straight up fucking creepy. if you're in an office setting and a dude pulls out your bare fucking boobs to fondle them, you CALL HR AND THE POLICE. PERIODT.

what set the daughter off was seeing the hair pin in the store - subtly implying w/o words that the hairpin wasn't an heirloom or the mother's treasure. the daughter realized that her relationship with her mother was so hollow, and so fake. she couldn't handle that "imperfection", so her mind went blank and she regained her sense of self after murdering her mother.
now, she lays in the bushes covered in her mother's blood, with a shadow over her face. fushi looks on at her with pity, if not outright disdain. she then has the gall, the arrogance, to ask him to be her friend.
a lack of friends or people close to her was not the problem. she has people she can confide in, who accept her. however, she believes, since these people are "imperfect", she cannot truly rely on them. she chooses to place these people next to her to have the outward appearance of a perfect girl with friends. like accessories.
she believes that since fushi is immortal and worshiped like a god, he must be perfect. thus, she asks him for friendship.
but what she's really asking for is a convenient doll.
no one seems to treat Fushi like the
near-God existence that he is... Mizuha thinks she has a chance with him saying things like "so these clothes are your type huh" and getting jealous over Eko and Tonari being near him... he's like thousands of years old and is only getting near Mizuha because of her bloodline
Ikr fushi can literally yeet humanity if he wanted to but dear fushi is too kind :'D pure boi
literally he's a god. or a god like being and they are kinda just... chill with it
I get what you mean but I think he's comfortable as it is, I don't know how he thinks but I don't think he wants them to treat him differently and honor him like the god he is, after all they gone trough they just think at each other as friends. And after growing with them, fushi has quite a human side too, as for Mizuha I'm gonna be honest she's just fucking annoying, I doubt hers is true love, she was just influenced by her bloodline
