Okay, this is where Lord Kudo really stepped up. He's been busy, to be fair, but his fiancee having debilitating nightmares every night to the point where she gets no rest??? Priorities sir. But I'm glad he eventually led her to her mother's side of the family and they'll be kind to her. Or they better be.
And is it just me, or does the cousin give off weird vibes?? Is it because he's protective? Or because he's gross? With manga you never know...
Happy Reading!!

“If you’re lonely, tell me. If it’s too hard for you, tell me. If you don’t tell me… I’ll never know.”
“I’m fine. How could I be… lonely?”
“You’re not? Because I am. Are you really… not?”
“I… I’ve been… lonely too.”
What a diabolical cliffhanger to end on. I don’t trust the Usubas one bit. As far as I’m concerned, they’re far worse than the Saimoris because unlike those losers, they’re deeply entrenched within these power-wielding bourgeois families and incredibly influential. They sacrificed their own daughter to an abusive nouveau-riche clan for money and only bothered reaching out to their granddaughter now that she’s gonna marry a prominent figure (and possibly unlocking rare latent abilities?). Creepy, shady fuckers.
Screw these people, I’m here for my girl Miyo gaining some semblance of self-esteem. Volume 1 Miyo would’ve never admitted her loneliness to Kiyoka. Baby steps, but steps nonetheless and that makes me happy. I don’t think their last misunderstanding will impact them much, especially with the Usuba nonsense upcoming. I need that creepy cousin and evil grandfather GONE. And Hazuki to find happiness. Her backstory was so sad and it’s genuinely heartbreaking to imagine how difficult it must be for her to be forcibly separated from her son - not to mention navigate the intense judgement and misogyny she’d face as a young divorced woman of her high-crust echelon. She better get her happy ending!!

the constant ‘not communicating’ trope in this manga is kinda getting tiring and a tad bit annoying. i hope there’ll be some progress between miyo and kudo’s relationship in the next volume.

Not a ton happened in this volume. The majority of it is Miyo’s worsening condition and Kudo tiring. The mix of the supernatural plot and the interpersonal politics continues to be a bit imbalanced. I liked learning more about Hazuki though. I think she’s a great character.
