    I loved how Sigiswald walked into that discussion with a “here I am your handsome prince” aura and at the end was just sort of begging to get out of there, he was so overwhelmed.

    Benno is such a good teacher.

    So many laugh out loud moments, including the part where he remarks, “Now I understand Eherenfest’s sudden rise…”

      The dude just got completely blindsided, not even Anastasius has seen this side of Rozemyne to warn him beforehand. Even then he probably would have dismissed any comments about her as exageration, no way a little girl could be so ruthless.

        “I’m going to be the king of this country and I just got bested by a little girl, that can’t be right. Obviously that must not have happened.”

        But it’s interesting that he thinks, “Wait, do I really want to marry this girl?” instead of “Holy crap, I need this girl bound to me in the royal family working this magic for me!”

    Myne just wiped the floor with Sigi. Understandable since she learned from the best.

    Honestly the thing I am anticipating the most rn is how and what Winfried fucked up. Since I am pretty sure he did something bad while they’re at the AC but I don’t know what and how bad it will be.

    Can’t wait for the next part!

    I love how Rozemyne just traumatized Siggy, no way this man expected such a smack down in the pre-negotiation round lol. His reaction to the library does remind me though that outside of Ehrenfest books are expensive because they can’t simply be mass produced.

    Poor Sigi didn’t know what he was going up against…

    So we’re going to be doing a Dedication Ritual at the Royal Academy. Where there is currently a magic circle in the sky. Yes, I’m sure that will go as planned.

    If Roz ends up getting the Gesundheit in front of all the aubs, will the Royal Family think they tricked her? 😨
