Viola’s world is yet again a whirlwind of activity and confusion. A new maid comes to the manor to take over for Mimosa just before Cercis returns from war with Aurantia. He’s no longer the selfish, obstinate manchild he was before, and it has Viola puzzled as to why. What’s more, now that he’s back, she has to attend another social event: this time, a repatriation ceremony! Cercis may have survived the war, but how will our heroine survive listening to the king’s speech!? And then just when life seems like it might go back to normal, Cercis drops another bombshell on her: a honeymoon!
Be sure to stick around for the side story at the end featuring a certain someone!
Back to the story about the relationship between Viola and Ceris. While I find it somewhat interesting, I'm beginning to get more and more annoyed by Viola. Yes she doesn't know what's going on, but she also doesn't seem to know how to say "no" to just about anything. People keep dragging her along, and I have trouble liking that kind of passive behaviour. I do hope the story gets a bit more interesting with Viola getting more spine.
After mediocre 3rd volume we are back to more standard story, where the focus is more on interaction of Viola and Cercis, and not on Viola not knowing what's going on.
Now that story is back on track with romance (at least on Cercis part) it would be great for Viola to gain more confidence, since she already great with giving cold shoulder.
