Jesibaby's Favorite

beggars can't be picky but I can't anymore. the translations became bad and I don't understand anything anymore, the story is great but sorry, i have to drop this.

im sailing the jeffrey and char ship no matter fucking what.

she is the type you could even think of as happily asexual, as long as she does not meet someone who is completely on equal frequency.

I feel like the duke is also like this. Jeffrey is someone who could happily live a fulfilled life on his own. He could also have flings, who end up on good notes and stuff, but dunno. He is so well rounded everywhere?

All the other kids are really just kids. Their emotional intelligence is low, they obviously behave totally like attention seeking teens infront of her. Even the demon dude. They are people that would make her "care a lot" about them. Meaning she would spend more energy on taking care of them, this taking away some focus from her own self and that would chip away over time at her.

But Jeffrey is someone so equal to her on many levels, she can really relax with him and live a parallel life with him. They could be forever friends and cofidantes, have some benefits someday when the tension hits, then if they age they could casually be like "let's marry?" and have one of those super peaceful harmonious marriages, that sometimes have argument when both of them glitch, because they are such big presences, it happens....and all over be very complete kinda....and if ever on of them should have a low moment, the other would have enough energy saved up to spare it on them for a little extra attention and vice versa, without loosing oneself to much in the others deficiencies....

these two are characters who can really without issues live on their own, and such characters can easily get lost in needy people like EVERYONE ELSE...but together they can be very compatible

My god you deserved to be banned lol. How about we not taking Japanese words that aren’t ours and change them to suit our needs. Yes about the word Yaoi a lot of Japanese readers/mangaka don’t really use that anymore because it’s outdated and they just as BL to describe everything as a whole not because it’s morally wrong to use the word Yaoi just because it’s just an old word like not popular. I do know that some Japanese readers want the stop of the Label NL. There is BL boys love, GL girls love, and NL normal love they have a problem with NL being all love is normal and they want people/artists to start using SL straight love. But Idk where you are pulling it out of your ass that it means anything different. Shounen means Boy, Ai means Love. Boy’s Love it’s a genre of queer media nothing more nothing less. Geared towards females but literally anyone can read it and many different people do. Kinda of how Shoujo is a genre of manga/media geared towards girls.(Fruits Basket, Sailormoon, ect.) And Shounen is a genre geared towards boys.(My hero, Demon Slayer, Naruto). Seinen geared towards young male adults (Tokyo ghoul, Akira, Black Lagoon) but anyone can enjoy these shows/manga. It’s low key racist to take words from other countries, try to change and demoralize it into something evil. I’m tired of people in the west doing it you colonizer. (▰˘◡˘▰) have a good day, take your toxic self somewhere else and please stay banned because it was obviously for a good reason. Okay rant over I’m going to bed.

Please explain to me what the hell happened? The quality was so bad I couldn't read anything ( TДT)

All yaoi, shounen ai and straight romance including smut aside... this hit different. If anyone knows similar plot please tell me I GOT ADDICTED

People who liked this story are soo fucced up srsly...
Yes.. I am fucced up.. :-)

DO NOT READ WITHOUT READING THE RECENT CHAPTERS OF THE MANHWA (UNTIL CHAPTER 47)



People hate Lucio too much but he really isn't a bad person. Except for making Patrizia queen because she's infertile, everything else was Rosemond's doing. Petronilla was executed because of Rosemond and Lucio didn't even know she did it until evidence proved otherwise. He's a great emperor despite his emotional disposition. Unless you read the novel, you probably won't be able to realize that.

Also let me point out that Lucio in the previous timeline was an affection-craving fool but in this timeline, he is more self-aware and in denial because he knows Rosemond doesn't love him. Although he didn't show it at the beginning, he was actually having doubts about her. This is because Rosemond also has memories of the past and her self-awareness of her past mistakes altered her personality. I'm quite sure she truly loved Lucio despite manipulating him in the past timeline but in the present, she's so focused on becoming queen that it became her downfall in the end.

(LUCIO)
The previous emperor (Lucio's father) was married to Alisa, the daughter of the most powerful Duke in the kingdom. But Alisa was infertile and at the same time the emperor's concubine, Janet, gave birth to an heir. As a queen who could not give birth, Alisa was basically useless so she decides to take Janet's son as her own. But the truth was that she just wanted to fuse her jealousy and abuse the kid; physically, emotionally, and sometimes sexually as well. Lucio grew up believing Alisa was his mother and didn't understand why she treated him like that. Days before his birthday, Alisa called Lucio to the courtyard telling him she had a gift for him (Lucio never once celebrated his birthday so he was excited). When Lucio arrived, Alisa threatened him to kill a person hidden underneath a white veil. He refused but then she began to beat him up until he gave in. With a sword she gave him, he stabbed the person under the veil multiple times. Alisa, laughing crazily, then reveals that she wasn't his real mother and that the person Lucio killed was Janet, his biological mother. At that time the emperor was away from the palace so when he came back, Alisa was dethroned from her status as queen and Lucio was never the same again.

(ROSEMOND - warning mention of sexual assault)
Rosemond is the daughter of a prostitute and a Baron. When she was 10, her biological mother was killed by the Baroness then the Baron took her in. She was treated like a maid and abused in the estate. At one point, her half-brother began to see her as a woman and so he raped her. Rosemond wanted to become queen in order to not only destroy the Baron's household but to also eliminate anyone who judged her for her commoner background. That's when Rosemond decided to "coincidentally" meet the emperor and share her painful story with him. Because of that, Lucio sympathized with her, and her plot to becoming queen began.

(DUKE EPHRENY)
(by order of nobility: duke, marquis, count, viscount, baron)
Duchess Ephreny was the daughter of a Marquis and Duke Ephreny was the son of a Baron. When they were younger, he seduced her, spiked her drink, and raped her. When she became pregnant, she decided to marry him because she had no memories of the rape and was convinced she loved him. Keep in mind though, that Duchess Ephreny is a blood descendent of the Ephrenys so she has a general claim of all rights and wealth while her husband is only powerful because of his wife's last name. Soon after the Duchess bore a son and her husband went from Marquis to Duke. The reason he was able to gain such a high title was because he manipulated the previous empress Alisa. Because of him, Alisa began to hate Janet (Lucio's biological mother) which ultimately lead to her forcing Lucio to kill his own mother. Rosemond knows about this because of her past memories, so she uses it to blackmail Duke Ephreny.

There are 3 pillars in the kingdom. The chancellor of the three was the Dukedom of Oswins (empress Alisa's house). But because Ephreny manipulated the previous empress Alisa into committing treason, Duke Oswins secluded himself. This gave way for the Dukedom of Ephreny to climb to the top. Thus, Rose being adopted makes her a high-status woman of the empire, second only to Patrizia. Rosemond's plan is to become Princess of Ephreny, announce that Patrizia is infertile, and work to becoming queen dowager. She basically plans to become a widowed queen where she gets rid of Lucio after bearing his child in order to gain an immediate legal claim of the throne, through giving birth to the heir.

Patrizia and Lucio grow increasingly close especially when she sees Lucio hurting himself due to a psychological attack in the next chapter of the manhwa (chapter 48). They also keep coincidentally seeing each other in the garden at night, which is also where Lucio tells Patrizia about his past. This all happens while Rosemond went away to her parent's house so when she came back Lucio began to reject her because he started to side with Patrizia. Everyone who knew about his past would avoid or judge him, but Patrizia pitied him and didn't understand why he was so used to pain. He then falls for her kind and genuine personality as well as her capabilities as queen.

On the evening of the Nation's Founding, Rosemond is officially adopted as Duke Ephreny's daughter. Lucio and Patrizia are both close but awkward with each other, mainly because Lucio is starting to subtly act on his feelings by always being around Patrizia and constantly asking if she's tired or not (yes he's really falling in love with her and infinitely dumping that bimbo) but Patrizia doesn't know how to react to him. But while she's alone, Rosemond appears and suddenly talks about rumors of how Patrizia hadn't slept with Lucio yet. She then asks why Patrizia isn't pregnant yet and claims Patrizia could be infertile which makes Patrizia incredibly furious because infertility is a great taboo (see what happened to late empress Alisa) among the public. And with their culture (especially considering she's the queen) it defines her dignity as a woman as well. Patrizia slaps Rosemond a couple of times out of anger after she proposes they both have a fertility test to find out the truth. After the fight, Lucio pulls Rosemond away to talk. They argue and break up after Rose admits she was only making use of his trauma and that Patrizia would never love a man who killed his own mother.

Because of Rosemond's scandalous actions, the Council decides to have the fertility test but Patrizia refuses to take it. Lucio keeps desperately urging her to, but Patrizia doesn't listen because she was positive she isn't sterile. That's when she realizes why Lucio was acting strangely desperate. She connects the dots and finds out about Lucio's plan with Rosemond of getting a queen who couldn't give birth. Patrizia feels devastated and betrayed while asking him "How are you any different from empress Alisa?!" then leaves him alone. After returning to her palace, she orders her maids to find a perfume called stereen (?) and gift it to Rosemond. When Rosemond received it, she started using it a lot, thinking it was Patrizia's way of licking her shoes for mercy.

One evening, Rosemond enters Lucio's bedroom and makes Lucio drink an aphrodisiac in order to force him to sleep with her. At this point, Lucio is completely in love with Patrizia even though she absolutely hates him. So he leaves the room to restrain himself because Rosemond wasn't going to leave. By coincidence, he meets Patrizia outside. Seeing his state, Patrizia suggested he slept with Rosemond/maid/any woman in the palace but he didn't want to. So Patrizia decides to help him and they have their first night together.

Petronilla actually has memories of the previous timeline. Patrizia finds this out during Lucio's birthday banquet. Rosemond had changed the traditional birthday flowers to sage - empress Alisa's favorite flowers that by the scent and appearance, could give Lucio severe psychological attacks because of his PTSD. But Petronilla was able to change the flowers to amaryllis and exposes her past memories to Patrizia. Because of that, Patrizia finds confidence in finding a way to kill Rosemond. She was depressed knowing her efforts were wasted because she's infertile, but it became her strength because she realized that she finally had nothing else to lose.

Petronilla has an important role in helping Patrizia expose Rosemond. Because of her, the truth about January (Duke Ephreny's mistress) conspiring with Rosemond will be revealed. In the end, she manages to steal the letters Rosemond sent to January in order to provide them as evidence in court.

Patrizia is confused with her feelings after sleeping with Lucio, so she goes to her parent's home for a visit. On her way back to the palace, she's ambushed by assassins. Patrizia had purposely exposed the fact that she was leaving for her parents' home so she already expected the assassination to happen. And according to the plan, Patrizia has the royal guards save her while she purposely slices her arms and legs with a knife for better effect and to cause an uproar among the people about someone trying to harm the queen. When she returns to the palace, Lucio says it was Rosemond's plan because he heard her talking about the assassination with her maid. Rosemond is again sentenced to execution and Lucio whole-heartedly agrees with it. She tries to get Duke Ephreny to save her but Patrizia and Petronilla had compiled Rosemond's letters to January and sent them to Duchess Ephreny.

The Duchess's son with the Duke had died because of the illness so the Duchess was mentally unstable. And after returning to the empire and reading through the letters about her husband raping her, she kicks January and the Duke out of the mansion. So Rosemond then has no one to save her from execution. Days before her death, Patrizia confronts Rosemond about what she did to Duke Ephreny, January, and basically all her crimes. Rosemond claims she would survive because apparently, she was pregnant with Lucio's child. Patrizia then exposes that the perfume she gave Rosemond as a "gift" before had contained chemicals that could make her infertile. So Rosemond ultimately became infertile as well. After that, Rosemond is killed without delay.

Patrizia tells Lucio that she wants to step down from being queen. Lucio panics and begs her to stay. He always felt like he was alone in the palace but having Patrizia there made him feel like he wasn't (it was a very dramatic and emotional scene ngl. you could practically smell his mental state crumbling) In the end, Patrizia stays in the palace because (1) Lucio, as emperor, wouldn't let her, and (2) it wasn't that simple to just stop being queen.

In an effort to appease her, Lucio asks Petronilla about things Patrizia liked. Because Patrizia liked sweets/chocolate, Lucio asks the chef to teach him how to bake. He then keeps sending sweets to Patrizia that he baked on his own.

Petronilla tells Patrizia to stop staying in the past because her mission to save her family is complete. Petronilla admits that she did love Lucio (in the previous timeline) but it shouldn't stop Patrizia from loving him in the present because Lucio loved Patrizia and she wanted Patrizia to finally live happily. This is when Patrizia decides to accept her feelings for Lucio. Coincidentally that night, Lucio had another psychological attack. Patrizia goes into his room to comfort him and tell him she accepted his feelings. They slept together for the second time, but as lovers.

Anything after that is very fluffy husband-wife moments with Lucio still baking sweets for Patrizia from time to time. There's a scene during Patrizia's birthday banquet where she sees Lucio being seduced by a woman who wanted to be queen but he harshly rejects her. When he realized Patrizia saw him with the woman, he adorably tries to explain the situation frantically. They end up dancing on the balcony, having a steamy kiss, and also watching the fireworks together. Patrizia then, for the first time, tells Lucio that she loved him.

The last chapter of the original story is about Petronilla and Rothesay's wedding. Lucio and Patrizia are attending but in disguise. Other side stories after the main story are about (1) a coup de tat in the previous timeline after Petronilla died, (2) Rothesay's POV when he met Petronilla, and (3) Lucio and Patrizia's family life.

Patrizia and Lucio's family life is about Lucio being forced to choose a concubine in order to produce an heir because Patrizia was "infertile". Patrizia agreed to it but Lucio knew she was hurt and always cried a lot because the one thing she wanted was to have a child with the man she loved. Lucio promised she would be his one and only queen. When Patricia went to do charity, she met this old guy claiming he knew her and asked to see her later. During the concubine selection, Patrizia chose Lady Petunia among the candidates but she turns out to be another bitch that belongs to the street who openly insults Patrizia in front of everyone. Lucio then defends his wife and puts the bitch right where she belongs. Before Patrizia reselects another candidate, the old man from before arrived and exposed himself as the physician who conducted her health documents during the queen selection. Apparently, he heard Rosemond's plan in choosing the queen, so to save his daughter who was one of the candidates, he messed up Patrizia's fertility results.

Patrizia and Lucio then do the deed a lot of times (づ￣ ³￣)づ in order to make babies. Lucio joked about having 10 kids but Patrizia laughed saying it was impossible for her to give birth for 10 straight years. Lucio suggests they keep having twins to limit it to 5 years lol. One month later Patrizia is confirmed to be pregnant. Lucio kept feeding her berries and they kept being lovey-dovey.

Time skip 7 years later their first son Dylan wants to sleep with his mom. Lucio says you only sleep with someone you marry so Dylan says he wants to marry Patrizia. Lucio gets annoyed (cute) so Patrizia tells Dylan to sleep early and get tall because she likes tall people. Lucio has the AUDACITY to feel proud because he thinks he's pretty tall lmao. The three of them end up sleeping beside each other. Dylan then asks how babies were made and Lucio tells him if he wants a brother he should let him and Patrizia "hold hands alone". After that night Dylan keeps giving them time alone (⌒▽⌒)

Another time skip, Dylan has triplets as younger sisters; Regina, Ressie, and Raine. Lucio by this time is already in his 40s but Patrizia still describes her heart beating fast when she's with him despite them being together for 20 years already. Patrizia says none of the emperors throughout history have been as good to their queens as Lucio was to her. But maybe Dylan would break the record and Patrizia was really proud to have him as her son. Lucio also gets jealous since none of their children wanted to marry him, including his triplet daughters. All of them wanted to marry their mom.

The next night it's Patrizia's birthday and she's surprised with gifts. After opening them, the children tell Lucio and Patrizia to kiss. They kissed and lived happily ever after. The END


If you have any questions, feel free to ask. The spoilers here are only the main events in the novel so I skipped out on the minor details that didn't affect the plot drastically.

I dont mind Fucked Up beyond repair or Perverted to the boot Character but this Hiroi its the Epitome of ANNOYING Character, I really cant stand him, no matter how the author justified his action, he is nothing but a Rotten Selfish Human Being. What the hell is wrong with him, he force his lover to fuck with Take, but then he get all sad and mad when they like Take. What anger me the most is how the author described him as an Innocent Angel. It would be better if he make Hiroi as an Evil character instead then he would be likeable at least.

So whoever finish this, tell me is the story got any better or not? I couldnt bring myself to read it any longer, I read a lot of threesome story, but this one getting on my nerves so much that my OCD didnt work at all.
I wish Mine would fall in love with Take in the end and dumped that shit Hiroi. Someone need to teach him a BITTER LESSON.

I finally read this and although I liked it I think there is a flavor too many ... Intentional or not, the two bickering taller guys, Take x Mine creates a sexual tension that is addictive while the shorter blondie turns into a character whose only function is to add the threesome plot in the story. The premise of the 'unusual' friendship between Take x Hiroi would be a good idea to justify the threesome if only Hiroi had came off more interesting or exciting character. Three is a crowd in this one.

i wanna see take and mine say “i love you” to each other without hiroi feeling left out. i also want take to leave for someone else for a bit to see mine realise that he actually loves take too. this breaks my heart so much

i made my account just to comment on this yaoi. now i first found this manga really early on into my yaoi exploration back when i was about 10-12 years old. at first i didn't like it at all. i was pretty against the whole poly/threesome relationship. however, i grew to really love this story. just to be clear before i explain some things, i am fully on board with Take x Mine without Hiroi in the picture. this relationship is toxic, no doubt. personally, i believe that the toxicity comes from Hiroi alone.

[spoiler warning]





you can see it first in the scene where he tries to force double penetration on Mine when Mine was clearly scared and did not give consent. Mine is crying his eyes out and yet apologizes to Hiroi for hitting him when Hiroi absolutely deserved to be hit. Hiroi does not for a second deserve that apology. the second time we see Hiroi being toxic are the past relationships/memories with Hiroi giving all his random stuff to Take. Hiroi is practically devoid of natural reasoning since he doesn't understand why other people don't want both him and Take. when he sees Take and Mine getting along, especially in sex, he just then starts to feel jealousy. he puts a limit on Take and Mine having sex alone for up to 3 times (which goes totally against his entire sharing shtick), he doesn't discuss anything with Take or Mine beforehand, and visibly gets upset that Take and Mine kiss. lastly, i feel that Hiroi is a barrier between Take and Mine's relationship. although Take and Mine didn't get along at first (and sometimes still don't), that dislike between the two was because of Hiroi anyway. to stay together with him, Hiroi basically forced Mine to have sex with Take. that's a low blow since i'm fairly certain that Hiroi didn't tell Mine beforehand about the whole 'share with Take' deal. you can tell that Take and Mine are growing close to one another and like eachother, or at least they would have an real love relationship if Hiroi wasn't in the picture. since this manga doesn't seem to have any other chapters happening anytime soon, i like to believe that the 3 of them would still be together, but Hiroi wasn't able to stop Take and Mine from growing super close, close enough to call it love.

anyway those are my thoughts. Take x Mine is otp.

i remember reading this a while back and take and mine ended up together on that one. does anyone remember this? is there like a link or something where I can read that part of story?

Does someone know where i can read the novel pls?

I came here because the title attracted my attention. Because of Omniscient reader's viewpoint, every sentences with the word "reader" always caught my attention. I need help (￣∇￣")

okay so here's my understanding of the story so far (with spoilers from the novel)




Sovieshu's plan is to both acquire an heir and a perfect empress.

When he was a child, he sneaked into the previous empress's (his mother's) room and found cookies which he gave to young Navier. Navier suggested they ate it together. Soon after, the previous empress was more anxious than angry that he took the cookies because it was for a countess that was favored by the emperor at that time (this is where I gag at Sovieshu's hypocrisy. he literally hated his dad for having concubines but look at him now) Sovieshu found out the cookies were mixed with poison that caused miscarriage with a side effect of infertility. His mother asked him if he shared the cookies but he quickly replied no. He lied instinctively, feeling that it's something no one should find out.

So because there is still no child between Sovieshu and Navier, Sovieshu concludes that one of them is infertile.

At that point in time, he was very stressed with the pressure the nobles and aristocrats were putting on him for not having a child to inherit the throne. Not only that, if he didn't bear an heir soon the throne would go to his uncle's son and his bloodline would ultimately lose the reign of the monarchy. That's what scared him because he knew how brutal being a member of the royal family was. After all, he spent some of his childhood watching the previous emperor (his father) with his concubines while his mother was abandoned. So when Trashta comes in, she's like a stress relief away from everyone's prejudice as well as the seeming indifference of his wife Navier.

Mind you, Sovieshu may be an asswipe but he is not one to crave countless women in order to satisfy his ego. He'd consider it, but his pride would never let him. Even though Navier was not the perfect wife, she was the perfect empress and a child between them would've been perfect as well had it not been for that cookie. So if he could not bear a child with her, Trashta had to do (his plan sounded perfect in his own head lmao).

So Trashta is already pregnant but the child is still an offspring of a commoner so he/she cannot become a prince/princess. This is why Sovieshu kept bugging Navier to adopt Trashta's child, so that he/she will have a legitimate right to take the throne.

But because Navier would not give in to adopting the bastard child (thank goodness queen) Sovieshu diverts to a different plan: divorce Navier and make Trashta empress for a year so that the child claims a royal right. Then when that year ends, he takes Navier back and kicks Trashta out. So Sovieshu basically didn't see much value in Trashta except for her ability to get preggers and her "feminine" side that Navier didn't have. fsr he has this fetish with women who depended on him like damsels in distress. And because Navier was independent af he also had some type of inferiority complex.

Soveishu's downfall is not telling Navier of his plan. Before Trashta came along, like waaay before all the issues, Navier and Sovieshu loved and trusted each other. Idk how to describe their past relationship but if you'd ask me, Navier was not good at expressing herself and Sovieshu was the worst in understanding that trait of hers. That didn't become much of a problem until the topic of an heir was brought up. Sovieshu started worrying a lot and he basically started blaming it on Navier; saying crap like the reason they had no child was because she wasn't affectionate to him or that she was infertile all along. Regardless, Navier continued to love him silently and although at first Sovieshu did the same for her, he began to lose sight of his love for her as he focused on figuring out how to produce an heir.

Sovieshu will soon snap back to his senses though, but it'll be too late. Because by then, Navier would've fallen for Heinly already and he won't be able to do anything about it. Sovieshu was the one who pushed Navier away after all.

So not only were they colleagues (on the throne) they were childhood friends who knew each other by the back of their hands. But because of Sovieshu bitch's inferiority complex, he decided he could handle batshit on his own. He basically plotted everything and since he didn't tell Navier, he made it seem like he was in love with Trashta and hurt Navier beyong comprehension.

Another thing is that he didn't calculate how crafty and cunning Trashta could be. So shit was gonna get loose when Navier stepped down from the throne.

Soon, Sovieshu ends up mentioning his plan to Trashta (1-year empress trial). Without his knowledge, Navier was actually listening to their conversation. This makes Navier leave the palace where she bumps into Heinley in a pub. Heinley confesses that he needed a queen to stand by him in his kingdom (Heinley's home is a kingdom, not an empire) and he wanted Navier to be queen. Navier, remembering what Sovieshu told Trashta, then offers marriage and Heinly accepts but he's confused because she's still married.

Navier continues sending letters through the blue bird (Heinley's attendant) and Sovieshu takes notice of this; speculating Navier is communicating with Heinley. So he orders to kill any bird that goes near the empress's chambers. Navier sends a warning but the bird confuses it and ends up getting hurt (blood, feathers, and all). Sovieshu bitch even sends a bird stew to Navier as warning. The bird isn't dead though, because Trashta finds it and gives it to Duke Elgy (Heinley's friend and the man Trashta is borrowing money from) who then becomes the means of communication between Navier and Heinley.

Meanwhile, Trashta (already knowing Sovieshu's plan) feels that she cannot compare to Navier. Duke Elgy suggests she studies so that's what she does. She studies while being accompanied by Sovieshu but she keeps complaining so Sovieshu keeps comparing her to Navier which infuriates. This keeps happening; she studies, acts fake-cute af in front of Sovieshu, borrows money from Duke Elgy, and pays money to Viscount Rostechu. At some point, Trashta also hires assassins to kill the Troby couple (Navier's parents). Then Navier's brother also attempts to poison Trashta to kill her child. He ends up being exiled by Sovieshu for it. Sovieshu then uses Navier's brother's crimes as leverage to solidify the divorce.

On the day of the divorce with the High Priest present, Sovieshu embarrasses Navier and claims she tried to harm his daughter. This is when Heinley enters as Navier asks the High Priest to bless her second marriage.

Sovieshu is salty af and even locks Navier, Heinley, and Navier's fam in their house while he searches for any laws that could null Navier's second marriage. The blue bird (Heinley's attendant) then appears to take them all to the Western Kingdom (Heinly's kingdom). Sovieshu goes crazy and demands to find them.

Some time passed since Navier left and Sovieshu goes paranoid because he felt she really wasn't coming back. So he doesn't drop Trashta from the empress seat because he put a lot of effort into doing it (faking Trashta's noble background and shit) but he does question whether their daughter is his or not. He uses magic to clarify the paternity; he was scared because he made so many enemies by divorcing Navier just to have an heir so there's no way he could save his dignity as emperor if his plan backfired. If the child really wan't his, it'd also shatter his confidence that he isn't sterile because Navier was already pregnant with Heinley's child (Sovieshu and Navier are both infertile because of the cookie but Navier and Heinley did (づ￣ ³￣)づ on a magical bed which is why she got pregnant). Sovieshu prayed the child really was his because he couldn't bear to live with the possibility that he lost Navier for nothing.

The truth was that when Trashta left Allen (the Viscount's son) years ago, she was already pregnant with their second child. But because she was sleeping with Sovieshu soon after, she didn't know Allen was the baby daddy. At some point, she also gets a scar on her face so Sovieshu starts to lose interest in her cause like you know the taboo with women in high society having scars.

It's revealed that Duke Elgy had only been getting information from Trashta. He's Heinley's friend and so, by Heinley's request, he got close to Trashta and got her to borrow money from him. Everything Trashta did, he told Heinley.

So Trashta's crimes are brought to light and she's imprisoned. She also ends up killing herself in her cell.

Sovieshu rejects the bastard child and has no heir to the throne.

Heinley and Navier live happily ever after with their little twin babies :)

Ppl dont seem to get that Trashta is a major White Lotus (someone who comes off a inocent but is anything but).
Lets look at her history.

1. She is a ex slave who slept with the young master of the house and got pregnant with his child. (Ok this can be exused with maybes "maybe he forced him self on her, baybe they were in love or baybe she seduced him".)
2. She gained her freedome by sacrificing her child. (again she was given two choices but only because she tried to flee, choice one keep the child and stay a slave, choice two relinguish the childe to the master and be free. She didnt hesitate to chose freedome).
3. She was "saved" by the emporer, from ppl chasing her because she was a slave? (this screams manipulation.. she wasnt a runaway slave she was free and the guys were helping her look like a damsel in distress, how come she ran to the rich powerful looking dude with armed guards for rescue? this was all a con).
4. After being rescued she manages to get in the Emperors bed within 2week! And this while claiming to have been a virgin and the Emperor getting her first time. ( If she was a virgin why did she surender her virginity to a stranger she just met. Its a fact she had a year prior given birth to a son so obiously not a vergin aka facked it. her not being a vergin and saying the Emperor took her virginty and he belives her means there were signs that she was a vergin aka blood on the bed so she staged it).
5. She spared no time prowing to everyone she was favored by the Emperor (she showed of in front of eveyone be it staff, servants or nobels.)
6. She is uneducated (this i a farce, it isnt that she was neevr taught. Its that she chose not to learn because learning would ruin her dumb inocent immage and she might screw up. This is proven when she first enter and are given tutors but skips etiquet because "she dont need it" aka whats atracting the men is the inocent child act of her being inocent and dumb so if she learns then the dumb part and defence is out the windoow.)
7. She cries at every chance she gets to gain pity. ( the face tears and crying about everything makes her atractive to men, because she is like a small helples wounded animal so their instinct to protect takes over.)
8. I want what shes got, why is that unfair? (She wants everything the Empress has but thinks its unfair she cant get it even when she is asked to do the work to earn it. She thinks being favored = everything is hers so it gives her the right to created trouble for others).
9. Im carrying your child! ( Nope, and even if you were that donst give you power over the wife, yet she expect her kid to be a prince / princess and wants the Emperor to change the churche law on a whim).

Reasons the Emperor is an idiot.
1. He sees a "slave" girl fleeing from men and resgues her and takes her with him..
2. Wthin 2 weeks he sleeps with said Slave, and belives she was a vergin..
3. He brings home a mistress and wants the wife to treat her well.
4. Get mad a wife for putting the mistress in her place.
5. Sides with Trashta even when he knows she was in the wrong.
6. Belives Trashta over his Wife.
7. Even when shown that Trashta is paying someone off he choses to hide the evidence.
8. When shown profe that Trashta broke the law he hides it.
9. Every wrong Trashta does it ok'ed because she is pregnant.
10. He banishis his wifes brother becaue the brotehr tortured the truth out of Trashta ex master and found she wasnt a vergin and had a child and staged the meeting.
11. Knowing Trashta wasnt a vergin like she laimed (red fag), that she has a son (red flag), that she sleeped with her masters sone (red flag) and that she staged her distress when they meet (red flag), he desides to find clause to divorce FL and make Trashta Empress... and all because "well nomater waht that child is my child".
12. He thinks teh child Trashta is carrying is his because she was a virgin, and continuse to belive its his even after learning whats at 11.

I want to just gently and softly strangle the living daylight out of the emperor and trashta

I HATE THE SEME BUT DAMN THAT FUCKING EMPEROR NEEDS TO SHUT HIS DAMN MOUTH TOO UGH

So people are asking, please stop manga with biphobic, homophobic, phobic this pobhic that. Ah ok then, lets not read manga with anything negative, manga with any plot or twist is a no no. Lets translate everything to being phobic something as well while we are at it. I can so fucking imagine how boring manga will be in the future. Nobody can take fiction as just fiction anymore, even fiction is taken to the friggin heart. Cancel culture is coming to manga. So fking delightful.

In this manga, the guy wasnt even trying to be biphobic in a negative way. He wasnt digusted by bisexuals but he was afraid to be cast aside like how his ex choose women over him. In Japan, getting approval by your family is not easy because Japanese like most asian culture are very family oriented, most parents prefer children from the same bloodline rather than adoption. Ofc, to continue the family name an iherit family business. His fear is understandable and part of human nature. Not everyone is perfect. However in this fictional world, many people are ok with it and everything ended up happily ever after. What the heck you complaining for?

I dont need your whine with "its hard to fight against the negative view of being bisexual and why this manga is encouraging it" crap, i know it. That happens in real life because that views comes from real life human relationship and not because manga made it that way or teaching that views. Dont try to tell me this manga will TEACH CHILDREN BEING BISEXUAL IS BAD.
