Not sure if it's true but I've heard spoilers that Tia will still be Empress because Perez fixes it so that she can be. But Im not sure, but I hope so.
Yeah, 100% nope
I'm sorry, but that is not sooo main character coded. Dw, based on the multiple spoilers that I read, Perez is going to implement a law that allows the Empress to also lead her family
While that indeed sounds like the most logical choice at first, manhwas (especially historical romances like this one) have a penchant for jealousy, so I reckon none of their lives would be too happy. Plus, having a matriarch who is not only unmarried, but also a mistress, would probably be a big hit on the Lombardi name-- not for any love or favor that Perez shows as the emperor, but simply because she is still just a woman on the "sideline," and that gives her negative political power. Any children she had would also be immediately a royal, so she wouldn't be able to pick and choose someone to be strictly a Lombardi (and thus inherit as head of the family)... but that could be more easily resolved by just having her train one of her cousins' children as heir to the Lombardi name. So Gillian and Mairon better get themselves some kids lolol
And also while I don't condone how the other replies just spoiled it without warning, I have to say that that is a very unsatisfying resolution, considering that Tia would then have to shoulders twice as much trouble and drama. Being head of the family already made her grandpa work himself into an early grave on her previous life, so now she has to do that AND be empress? Talk about being a workaholic. That girl is going out EARLY
Knowing Perez, of his Empress is not Tia then NO ONE WILL. But of course Tia will be the Empress. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
This could possible work if only Ramona doesn't have romantic feelings towards Perez.
Like if she had a consort of her own.
So rather than actual married couple, they'll be like a president & vice president thingy who're bound by marriage contract, but doesn’t need/want to fulfill ANY marriage obligations
You underestimate Perez too much
1 like and 10 dislike, seems like alot of doesn't like that.
Btw can anyone spoil me if Ramona would have romantic feelings towards Perez?
Bruh I'll say it again.
"This could possibly work if only Ramona doesn't have romantic feelings towards Perez."
You're not thinking clearly if you still don't get it. No matter how they bind themselves to contracts or whatnot, a person's feelings towards another person will deepen as time goes on. Sure, Perez will only see her as a friend whom he was indebted on (for agreeing to such affairs) but what about Ramona? She liked him. It's not like they don't have any obligations as Emperor and Empress.
And do you really think their families (Lombardi, Brown, and on Perez's side) won't involve themselves to such matters? A prime example of what I'm saying is the feud between Angenases and Lombardis. Do you really think the nobles won't take sides again because of such arrangement?
Plus it's unfair for Ramona to be tied to such situation when she could've a brighter future ahead of her.
For sure, this "what if" is clearly the most unhinged and unrealistic. My previous comment was pretty self-explanatory and I don't know how could you not get it.
I agree with these. This "what-if" arrangement kinda makes the story more dramatic and chaotic.
Yup!
One way for Ramona to not have romantic feelings for Perez is for her to be deeply in love with someone else -> which can help the two of them avoid falling in love w/each other & maintain a strictly professional relationship, kinda like the emperor and empress in I Shall Kill That Sweet Devil
'Course, I know this carries it's own complications, but it's fun to muse & speculate sometimes (only in fiction ofc)
Honestly, Tia becoming queen kinda makes me queasy 'coz it does carry it's own set of problems.
But I suppose, it'll be the "less evil" option since their society isn't ready for a strictly professional relationship between Emperor & Empress
(^_^) V
In countries where polygamy is common queens are considered official wives of the king just lower than the empress. She'd technically still be an official wife of high standing.
While that may be true, this isn't the case in this empire. Which means Perez would have to change the empire's law (?) after ascending to the throne– and if he's to do that already, why would he change it in favor of polygamy instead of just straight up making it so that he can marry Tia without further problems?
Exactly. Everyone knows that Perez has eyes for Tia only. Why go through such trouble when he can ammend the law so that Tia can still be empress while being the head of Lombardi?
Bruh this ahh is pretty unhinged ngl. First you introduce the term "Queen" and then now the term "Polygamy". Both terms unheard of and both concepts aren't applicable in the manhwa. In an instant, this doesn't apply now as a "what-if" idea, this went similar those of a wack. For a "what-if" idea to become plausible or even likeable (to say the least), one must bear in mind the facts of that manhwa -the worldbuilding, its characters, and concepts applied. Introducing a concept unheard of or even barely applicable in that manhwa is a nutcase of its own.
What if Ramona becomes empress and Tia becomes queen? Ramona can serve as the empress formally while Tia is queen and her child is named heir by Ramona. It'll allow Tia to still be with Perez while leading her family. Her first born son can take over as the crown prince and her daughter can become the next matriarch. I'm sure the family would be upset that Tia is technically a mistress but Perez wouldn't show any love to Ramona at all and they'd rule primarily as friends. Ramona could also take a love.
