Wasn't expecting the "adoption" backstory to go that route....oof.
Glad this is getting more fleshed out than the original shorts series
Yeah it's honestly a really good albeit depressing reason as to why Mayne does everything she does, especially given that her body is her only real weapon in this fight of nobility.
Someone on Mangadex keeps warning that in a later chapter, she uses her body to escape from four guys who kidnapped her.
I doubted the authenticity of those claims at first, but based on the content of this new 'adoption' storyline, I'm starting to wonder if the person's warnings have some merit...
