(Marianne’s Mother)
“Duke Diogenes! Is it true that you are going for an expedition?”
“A. I will not be able to come back for six years.”
“It cannot be… We just got married right!?”
“A. Marianne is still small. That’s why I took you in as my wife.”
With that, Duke Diogenes departed for the expedition.
I, who did not have any acquaintances within the Royal palace began to raise the small Marianne.
I struggled to raise Marianne by myself, but Marianne was a truly selfish and bad child.
I could no longer manage to take care of her… And that was what I had been thinking about at that moment.
At that time, I met Hydorosa. That man truly valued me, and he had brought me out to various places.
And one day, affection began to bear between us.
Suddenly, I found out there was a new life residing inside my stomach.
But, I was still married to Duke Diogenes.
What kind of harsh eyes will look upon this child who was born during the absence of Diogenes?
I was also from the Royal Family. So I could not raise this child.
A~ my pretty child…
“I cannot not let go of this child… I cannot do that.”
“…That’s true… I want you to raise that girl. I will look after Marianne. I will bring her up as my daughter.”
“But…”
“It’s alright. You two are parent and child. Whether or not that girl’s name becomes Marianne, she is still my daughter.”
With that being said, I patted my newborn baby.
Then, I delivered Marianne and gave the child of my husband with his former wife to Duke Hydorosa while I took the child, whom I had secretly delivered in my hometown, and declared her as Marianne.
There were only a few people who were interested in this pair of parent and children during the absence of Duke Diogenes. There were a few who approached us, but I kept myself confined within the Imperial Villa.
By the time this child came out the next time, no one would be able to notice that the baby had changed a little bit from the beginning.
———————————-
(Marianne POV)
“So, the child of mine with Duke Hydorosa is the current Marianne. Duke Diogenes’s daughter, Marianne, was raised by Duke Hydorosa as his own child.”
Mama began to shed her tears.
“Duke Diogenes, I am sorry. But I truly love that man…”
“No, that girl and I…”
The Royal Family and the surrounding people were dazed by the sudden revelation.
Prince Daniel, who was beside me looked dumbfounded while his mouth was wide open.
“Good, that’s good. Then, at this place, let’s have a divorce settlement.”
Duke Diogenes spoke quietly as if he already knew that this would be the case.
************
How many of these people managed to grasp this fact?
This happened so suddenly that many were unable to stomach the information.
Only Duke Hydorosa and Marchioness Diogenes looked happy with the current situation.
…..Unaware that the end of their love is slowly approaching…

T/N: The absurdities of Marianne’s mother~
Aki is currently MIA. so the two unedited chapters will be edited as soon as I come out from my hiatus?! Tabun… Kitto… Masaka?!
Anyway, that’s the end of the mass releases. I will be on a short Hiatus. I will probably post a new chapter at the end of February. Until then, have a nice day everyone.
Thanks for the chapter. Although I’m not 100% sure I’m following. The Evil Marianne is the second child and the first child is who? Leticia?
Marianne and Leticia was switched.
No wonder why Duke Hydorosa was so happy that Marianne was engaged to the prince. She was his daugther all along!!
Woah! You’re on fire today! So many releases. So nice! I could use that fire to roast the Prince and the b… WITCH!!! Thanks for the chapter ~~~
Thanks for the mass release! Finally understood the situation. XD
Things on the verge of exploding now. Lol.
Whoa! Now that’s some revelations
Oh btw, is this the part will you say. “NOOOOOOO!!!” ? Or leticia will say it?
So i guess that means that Marianne and Leticia are half sisters.
check the relationship chart
Marianne and LeticiLeticia aren’t related at all.
Duke Diogenese and his dead wife had Leticia (who was originally named Marianne).
Hydorosa and Marianne’s Mother gave birth to Marianne (the current antagonist) in an affair.
They swapped the children so Marianne would be in a Royal branch family, so Leticia is not actually related to Hydorosa or Marianne’s mother at all.
Wait…so the stepmother found leticia to be difficult to raise because she was a bad and selfish child at the age of what…an infant???
This. This is exactly my thought too
Now is time for the Duke Hydorosa’s family to be killed, after all they kidnapped a member of the royal family and falsified information….
Ahh, no wonder that man didn’t treat Leticia well…..and what is this “I struggled to raise Marianne by myself, but Marianne was truly selfish and a bad child”? What the hell was she expecting from a newborn child?
I wonder if the Duke Diogenes was insecure and had the stalker glue to his daughter…. or maybe from the mother’s family? And I wonder if they will perceive that the magical results were exchanged as well…..
Thanks for the chapters and come back soon!!
Oh man this is an A+ in Foolishness… I can’t wait to see how things will turn out
Please don’t leave us hanging! Please! I’m crying here, I’M SERIOUSLY CRYING!
Sorry.. I will be away for nearly 3 weeks with slow connection and no laptop.. So yeah.. He..he.. Fighting..
There is only one solution left for me, the dreadful Machine translation!
Well, if you must 😉
Thank you for the multiple releases! Now this is confusing.
Check the relationship chart in the chapter page
Given that
Carlos has a name but nothing much to say yet,
the first prince hasn’t appeared so far (unless he is Didion) and
the king has some important secrets
I am sure it will get more confusing.
Whaaaaaaaaaat?
Haha this is starting to get even more twisted. I can’t wait for more. Thanks.
Seriously are they brain dead to think it was a good idea to reveal all your dark secrets like that. I mean seriously what is in the water that they thought any of this was a good idea. Half the cast is brain dead and I almost feel sorry for them.
Thanks for the wonderful translation!!
Including the fact that he now has no right to the 500.000.000.
So any deal he made with the prince isn’t worth the paper on which it is written.
Thank you very much! Their relationships are truly messed up… and I can’t understand why duke hydra and fake marianne’s mother revealed the secret ^^; lol idiots? Are they idiots? Lololol this is just funny x) really interesting ahaha
Well marianne is a hydorosa right? She is supposed to become a queen ( in their mind that is) so they need to reap the credit as the future queen’s right? That is their reasoning actually..
Yeah but… their reasoning is a bit… ^^; It like they actually believe that it will happen haha! I wouldn’t be surprised if the stupid prince is actually also their child. Then the stupidity of the prince will have been justified by genes. ^^;
Thanks for the chapter as always!
Its certainly that Duke Diogenes already know about this matter from the long time ago.
Then, thier story will end like a flower that englufed in rain and tornado…..
Still not explains where is duke hydorosa wife?? Death??
Hahahhaahhah! The pieces are complete! Duke Diognes knew everything so he sent Didion to protect Leticia, while the choker that Leticia’s always wearing is I doubt a magic device that alternates one’s face, as no way in hell do I believe that Leticia has a normal face, look at the royalty they’re all beautiful right? Or so it was described as.
Then, Duke Diognes just pushed them, as he knew that these idiotic people would bring their own downfall… Is it? But I still kinda hate him, since Leticia cried for injustice sake! Leticia our beloved heroine even had to attend a Queen’s lesson for almost who knew how many years! Lol, I doubt im the end Leticia would be the one to inherit the throne tho’.
Well act that is not quite right.. He..he.. It actually much more intricate than that
I like your hypothesis that the choker changes her face so I’d hope for it, but I’m nearly positive that it also makes her magic seem much less than it actually is. I think her magic is likely larger than the current kings!
Oooh? Why didn’t I think of that? XD
Several things happened 10 years ago:
– Duke Diogenes returned with reduced magic ability .
– That nameless scholar invented several machines.
– Leticia got Didion, a choker (and possibly a stalker).
I guess at that time she was also chosen as the prince’s fiancee.
My guesses are:
– The choker transfers duke Diogenes magic to her.
– Duke Diogenes is happy because his power goes to his own daughter and to duke Hidorosa’s brat.
– Duke Diogenes will demand repairs for abandonment of and cruelty to Leticia and so on.
And I am sure it gets even more complex.
The level of stupid right there is too goddamn high.
I looked at the relationship chart and I’m a bit confused. I thought “Leticia” (or the real Marianne) was the daughter of the cheating 2nd wife? So she’s the daughter of the 1st instead?
The current Leticia, the one with the broken engagement, is the daughter of the 1st wife while the current Marianne is the cheating 2nd wife x duke hydrossa. 1st waifu is dead. Leticia gt swapped with Marianne and those 2 cheating adults are a whole bunch of stupid.
Ah! Never mind…
Yes..
Thx for the chapter. I am speechless at this point. We at least now know why “Leticia” has so much MANA, why the king was so insistent on her, and why the Father has no care for her……….. However, are they really that retarded?
They kidnapped a Royal family, impersonated a Royal family member, disgraced the Royal Family’s name, slander them again, and practically plotted against them. Can we say “execution?”
Oh waw … such nuke just being dropped , poor Leticia and duke Diognes and thank for the mass release!
I bet Mariana fake~ was just watching the whole confession while spamming “oh shit!” in her mind.
Thank you for spoiling us with the mass releases!
Also I forgot how the Diogenes house was related to royalty?
Nvm I found out how after rereading ch6
Man, the level of self delusion is high and seems to be contagious on the villain team. Can’t wait to see the bloody mess this’ll become!
Oh my God. They are dumb people. Oh my Goood
So then, Didion…? Is he the bodyguard of real Marianne from her real Mother? Or maybe… coughcontractspiritcough
Yes~ YESSS~! Keep digging your own grave. A deep, deep grave~
Thank you for translating this novel, I read it in one go~ It’s good. I can’t wait until everything goes to $h!t for all of them. The satisfaction is going to be deep (in various ways). Fufufufufu~ Hohohohoho~
