I can't stand Sato. I'm actually giving up on this manga because he just pisses me off too much. I was down for the cute - two semi-awkward people working their way through their relationship. But then freaking Sato appears and everything is just done for his amusement?! Twisting words so that the ML thinks you're also into the FL? What an absolute dick move. How about you freaking communicate like normal people?! God I hate him so much.

What the absolute hell. I cannot wait for the next chapter when her father dies. What disgusting creature would willingly sell his own daughter for sex? [The worst thing is that he's only caring for her until she's 'grown' so that he can make more money off her]. UGH.
Though I'm well aware that as soon as he discovered she was of mixed-race (aka not a pure human), he no longer saw her as family. Ew, just ew.

I suppose that's one way to protect her from interested parties. Adopting her.. would mean that someone could still kidnap/forcibly marry her to someone else. Let's hope the next chapter is Ewey going - I'm 15! and you're 40~! (Assumption based of her calling him an ojisan), and then we'll get the explanation of why this is a good idea, and don't worry, if you do fall in love with someone you can still marry them.

My assumption was that her father framed her (apparently that's not so). Because what idiot would ignore their daughter their entire life and then give them a weapon in prison? The only options are - kill someone, kill yourself. If she stabbed someone to try and escape.. she would be utterly doomed by the rest of the guards in the area - and BOOM instant guilty death sentence. So the only other option is he wants her to die. The prince's words.. I get he meant he wasn't going to kill her.. but she's in a rumored torture cell for dangerous criminals. You think he could have been a wee bit aware of how words get twisted. Especially since he came in all armored up. Congrats prince you really went for the scary factor there.
Ahhh -- I'm just waiting for the beautiful moment when the real Lucia comes back and (if she hasn't been discovered by then) the Prince gets to go searching for Elena.
