ASFTV Chapter 12

“That’s right. Yuk King. The former Yuk royal family members were holders of holy magic… I bet it was in their blood.

Like Prince Gilbert, sorry his position has been removed, he is not a Prince. Like Sir Gilbert, it is because the ancestors forgot about their blood and duties, they mixed their blood with others”

 

“Ah, at that time, the aristocrats who were making a barrier thoroughly and the commoners were getting along. But something that shouldn’t have happened, happened.

The Prince of that time and many high-ranked aristocrats with holy magic fell in love and married lower-ranked aristocrats or commoners, and immediately after, the holders of holy magic decreased.

According to the records of the ancestors, they freshly said something like «To be tied by such a country, I feel sorry» or «I cannot be happy marrying a fiancee decided by parents with such poor feelings», or «I will try my best for you. I won’t suffer alone anymore. If there is love, I will overcome anything be the parents or aristocrat’s conventions»”

 

The King said, while agreeing to Hil’s sarcasm.

Wasn’t that the lines of Meg and Gilbert…?

 

“For the persons with superficial thoughts who were looking down on their noble duties that were giving a strong pressure, the freedom arguments of those girls were refreshing, they had the illusion to consider those things as their own reality.

The persons who married defying the opposition of their parents, gave up on their succession rights. Raised their whole life as aristocrats, a few of those persons got used to start anew living like commoners. Most of the married couple were perplexed by their difference in values and ended up being on bad terms.

After all, it was very difficult to live in a different environment”

 

The King was sighing more and more.

 

“As for the royalty, the direct royal family line disappeared when the King at that time married a lower ranked aristocrat. It was because no one of these girls could give birth to an heir holding the holy magic.

Most of these people who didn’t receive a noble education were against concubines. «You told me I would be your only love!

I also became a loved Queen, forced to make official business every day even though I don’t want to, that is a no, you definitely cannot do that. I really am doing my best! If you were to take a concubine, I will kill you and die too!» was the kind of lines that were said”

 

While turning their faces, the surrounding people were for some reason looking at Meg all at once…

 

“I too, am not a direct descendant to the throne. The successor came from an affiliated line… There is no longer a pure holy magic holder in Yuk country. It seems the foreign countries that perished by other countries or that were divided by conflicts, didn’t attach any importance in holy magic users.

 

The neighboring countries are only newly created states.

Yuk country too was destined to follow this road, but it created an environment educating at the same place the aristocrats and the commoners. At least, the aristocrats supported the country with the commoners, had a conscious and didn’t act recklessly.

 

The young aristocrats also knew about the way of thinking of commoners, so I thought that persons who would fall in love because it was fresh would disappear.

Needless to say, there was no one who would get in touch recklessly and act on equal terms with an aristocrat.

 

… Well, there seems to be an exception…”

 

 

The King took a glimpse at Meg.

 

“Wh, what foolish things are you talking about?

Father! Meg is a wonderful girl. She will be adopted by a Viscount soon. With this, the obstacle due to her social status will disappear. Above all, Meg is pregnant with my child. She has the holy magic. Therefore, please rest assured. I will become an excellent King.

Given that Julia is in a sick man and woman relationship with uncle-ue Luke, until this pair were to marry and support me, I could not calm down at all!”

 

“Wh, what are you saying!? I won’t do something like sleeping with someone before marriage!”

 

As expected, I snapped. I would like you not to lump me and Luke together with you, just because you and Meg did H things.

I don’t want you to look at my relationship with Luke like that.

First, who will support you and Meg? I know I am making it a personal grudge. I, who was taken for a fool in this way, how could I possibly think of supporting someone like Gilbert and Meg?

 

“Eh~. You eloped with a man and slept with Luke-sama, right? You have no virtue~”

 

Meg changed her position by twisting her body. Meg, who was wearing a yellow off shoulder neckline dress, had a chopping board chest, making her outfit disappointing.

 

“I don’t want to be told that by someone like you!! You are such a bitch!”

 

This whole time I was enduring it before the King and the Queen Dowager, but thinking about such a relationship with Luke, I could not let this person think I was a light woman.

 

“Kya-. Scary. You are going to bully me again… Chris, Thomas, I’m scared. Sob sob”

 

And now, she is clinging to Chris. Since Gilbert is no longer a Prince, did you change your partner to Chris?

 

“Older sister. It is not because you are a bitch that the others are. Meg is different. Meg has the child of Prince Gilbert in her belly. It is unreasonable to be so abusive!

Such an older sister, quickly leave the Duke Lediz family. Father too, please retire with older sister.

You are the Duke’s family shame!

In the end, if older sister is in this country, it will be a bad influence for the important royalty to be born”

 

I haven’t had a conversation with father and Chris for a while. However, I didn’t think Chris hated father until now.

Since he was a child born out of marriage, maybe he was bearing a grudge being an illegitimate child of father until he was brought to the Duke family.

 

“Chris”

 

“Lediz, I will explain”

 

The King interrupted my father.

  1. Thanks for the chapter! Why do I get the feeling this is full of comic relief? We need a black-bellied character to come in and stomp these delusional nut jobs into meat paste…

    1. They are already disowned, they just refuse to admit reality. The king already took away Gilbert’s right to the throne and prince title, he is now just a duke at best. Chris is about to lose his inheritance as well, since he won’t have any title to inherit Inthe first place after the family leaves the kingdom.

  2. It’s amazing how conservative this novel is. I mean, all novels in this genre are, but this is particularly blatant. The moral of this story seems to be: marrying for love instead of an arranged marriage will literally destroy the country, and women who have sex before marriage are “sick.” While I’m not saying that Meg isn’t sick, I don’t consider her as sick for that reason.

    1. well, putting it into context, if you think about it, a rich girl or guy would have a hard time adjusting to commoner life, no? And a lot of married couple arguments are most commonly about money. The price of things like food and clothing, and how often one can afford to purchase such things…rich people don’t think about that sort of thing. So I can see where the difference in background would cause grief between couples that married for love in this story. And arranged marriages tend to take economic compatibility into account for reasons like this.

      also, way back in the day, say like Renaissance era (to which this novel seems to be referencing), there was no scientific or concrete way to determine which man was the father of a baby. It’s obvious who the mother is since she was the one who gave birth. But to determine the identity of the father, it was necessary to have the woman be “faithful to one man,” and they did so with marriage vows. So for a woman like Meg, here, who’s pregnant out of wedlock, her child’s paternity would come into question – ESPECIALLY since she has this reverse harem around her. Who’s to say she didn’t sleep with each and every one of them?

  4. Ah, Luke and Julia are a good pair. Also, why does her Father seem to not like Chris even before his attitude came out, obviously he is not a good person now but what about before. Are they related? But Chris still isn’t a good person and is Meg sure who the Father is anyways?
