We finally made it to the front page!

Evil lady’s bodyguard is so sexy…

Not bad, not great for me. The heroine almost gives me isekai-protagonist vibes in how she goes about things, and the "love interest" really doesn't have much of a personality so far. Maybe now that it introduces some characters that might possibly be antagonistic there'll be some more to this.

...I really hope the comments' theory about the dragon that attacked 6 years ago being black knight's former parent is not true...Cuz that would be messed up and sad...I mean it a possible theory and I don't like the sign of the black mark on her shoulder which might be a infection/curse from using the black knight armor...Black knight has been using the armor for 6 years (Black knight-BK was 18 years old when she took over the armor. Currently 24 years old and our MC is 18 years old. Hopefully BK won't be infected by a curse from her magic armor...)

I also hope that maid is not a spy for the trading company...

[For how the King got Black Knight to agree to arrange marriage.]
I mean the king probably made some kind of sophisticated/flowery speech letter the black knight about him (Her) getting a wife and about his concerns about BK (Black knight) not having a knight and wanting to help him (Her) out by offering to arrange a marriage.

Reason why the King made the decree in my mind/opinion:
KING: "Oh dear, my loyal knight. You have made our kingdom proud, as expected of the 'son' of the previous black knight who has been loyally defending the frontier against the evil of the monsters threatening us...But I been worried about your household circumstances recently, I understand that you have been busy and likely not have time to search for a partner so let me arrange a beautiful lady for you! I have even provide a small humble gift for the marriage to ease things along." (TRANSLATION: I want you to make a heir so we can keep having a fking meat shield to prevent monster from attacking our kingdom!!! I will just make a fking royal decree and find some random woman stupid enough to marry you, hahaha it a good thing you didn't make a lot of connection so I can add some social pressure to push you into a marriage without much hassle or backlash. The other nobility would throw a hissy fit if I send them to replace you if you die which I would do anyways if you died but I would rather not deal with that fking headache...Here is some small amount of money for the marriage by the way as dowry/gift/bribe for the marriage...have fun~)

The king wants a meat shield against monsters invasion [He might know about the family's magic armor but obviously not about BK being female]. King/Royalty might 'not' have absolute fully control over the kingdom but he/they do have some major influence on stuff...Plus plot reasons by the authors lol.
...plus no nobles want to fking risk their life fighting in a war zone for barely any profits... Sure Magic crystal/stones from monster can be sold for money but BK is selling them to buy weapons/Walls to protect from monster and to pay for the soldier's wages...the leftover is used to pay for her maids/storage for emergency supplies.

Duke(Sometimes Grand Duke, often royalty siblings or related royalty), marquess, earl, viscount, and baron are the ranks usually after the king/royalty.

Black knight is currently a Margrave/Marguess rank...But the downside is their territory is at the frontier/WAR area...meaning focus on military power which is used to suppress monster attacks. BK sounds like she is not very socially connected to the political circle in the capital (The other nobles can focus on making money and connections due to not worrying about monsters attacks)...meaning it easier to apply social pressure from the king for him(HER) to get marry...

Magic or magic items exists but likely rare for humans to use (There are magic gems/stones/crystals gained from killing monsters).

Ah the joys of living in a war zone/Frontier....The price of food and supplies always sucks...the pay for jobs there might be good or high but the cost of food is higher to almost absurd levels as well...it like buying a loaf of bread in ICELAND for 5-6 times the cost.

Let see what the business lady that currently has a monopoly in the area wants from our MCs...Hopefully she won't be too much of a jerk when they interact and that she has a logical and reasonable reason why she is charging the people there high prices for supplies/food...

EDIT:
Wonder if we will get a scene where BK(Black knight) discovers MC only married her due to needing money to help fund/save her sick little sister after they get closer romantically then BK get a bit depressed but wants MC to be happy and give MC's money before trying to send MC away back to her home before a couple chapters the issue gets resolve by MC saying it was that way at first but MC actually fall in love with BK lol XD

sometime posted this little doodle in commemoration of Pocky day based on a tweet from Suou

Petite Love Pocky Day
Clarisse: "Lord Frost! Pocky game..."
Frost: "Chomp, crunch...swallow" (grabs a whole bunch and eats the top half in one bite)
Clarisse: "...You eat them one at a time."
Frost: "This is faster. chomp...crunch"
Clarisse: (Ah, the sound effect is like a monster's...)

This is hilarious.
Okay but what if... Resource management game where as the MC you try to restore the Black Knight's estate all while establishing a good relationship with your hirees. You start off with the maids that have their eccentricities and limits in their work output but they have special skills as your relationship levels up. Then you manage a reputation meter for the Black Knight, a meter for the secret, and a meter for the household (which is also your reputation). Obviously a romance meter with Frost. Eventually you get to hire more people and the money is a flowing. That's sorta the lense I'm viewing this with.

as much as I like a tall, strong, woman, I like this maid. I'm totally into her being a bookworm and all.

I wish I were the knight of this nice lady.

I finally read the rest of the chapters up to the 7th chapter. This is REALLY good. Let's hope it doesn't turn into a full drama and tragedy. And that Frost softens more: She has been so mean to her wife ;)

Rival yuri romances! Black Knight's wife versus hot evil capitalist and her bodyguard! Have a foursome!

I'm sorry, idk what came over me just then.

This town's gonna be a real fixer-upper, that's for sure. Not unlike Frost-Sama herself in a way.

Looking back at Chapter 5.5, I'm curious about something...

Wasn't Charlotte's reaction to Clair removing the cream from her cheek a bit sus? It certainly felt a bit different from your typical sibling relationship.

Yup, Charlotte is definitely siscon for her "onee-sama". Can you blame her, though?

Nope, can't blame her at all.
