The Terminally-Ill Princess Holds the Leash of the Mad Dog (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 073
Dietrich did not move.
Ileon’s subordinates rushed at Dietrich, and until they completely bound him with ropes, he stood still in place, calmly gazing at Ileon.
“Dietrich Calypso. You are no longer the Duke of Abelon, nor the Commander of the Imperial Knights. We hereby strip you entirely of Calypso Castle.”
To Ileon’s words, Dietrich gave no reply.
Meeting Dietrich’s silence, Ileon stared back with fierce eyes.
“You murdered the ministers and insulted the sovereign. Such crimes deserve punishment by military authority.”
“Your Majesty.”
Dietrich’s following voice was so low it created the illusion of echoing from a deep abyss.
“Where exactly is the evidence proving I murdered the ministers?”
That was right.
The ministers’ corpses bore no stab wounds from a blade, nor any signs of poison.
Dietrich was claiming that Ileon’s punishment was unjust.
There was suspicion, but no physical proof.
In this situation, where nothing could be proven, stripping Dietrich of his position as Commander of the Imperial Knights would cause the majority of the imperial knights to rise up in revolt.
“If you provide a convincing reason, I will accept the punishment without complaint.”

My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”

- Aelthia Chapter 087 — Paragraph 100
Ileon nodded toward Balt’s sword with the tip of his chin.
I’m assuming Balt either forgot or doesn’t trust that Celia said she would spare his life if he helped her.
- Aelthia Chapter 096 — Paragraph 86
“You don’t trust me at all.”
Balt makes an excellent point here. Ileon couldn’t even pity his ignorant relatively harmless little sister, he just literally threw her to the wolves, er… monsters. How could anyone trust Ileon wouldn’t sell them out?

Chapter 74 is missing.
I feel like I missed important information. Was it the cathedral or hall of ministers that burned or both?
Did Arthur take over the parrot’s body so he could always be close to Celia? Maybe as a type of fail safe if Dietrich killed him?
Nice ending, with the glimpse of the future. I’m really expecting a lot from about extra stories. I just wonder is there connection with “Political Marriage with a Friendly Enemy”? Thank you about the translation.
