After all, Lizeth had many secret admirers in the dark who only revealed themselves after she became the new queen.
Of course, this kind of readers' comments couldn't overwhelm the comments of other fans who read the novel without thinking too much about the plot.
This novel's main selling point is the protagonist' mary sue halo and being doted on by countless powerful men of all ages, right?
Even women bowed before the protagonist, admiring her or becoming her cannon fodder to further emphasize the protagonist's brilliant halo.
Mariella calmly gulped her milk tea and protested at Duke Fez with a childish tone of voice.
"I never want to be a queen, but this damn talent scout ability forces me to be one. Say, dad. Can I give this ability to someone else? Or– "
Duke Fez immediately stopped Mariella's words.
"No, you can't. The ability will stay as long as you're alive. You don't want to die, right?"
Duke Fez was afraid that Isabella didn't know anything about this and carelessly gave away the ability to the other princes or princesses.
But that would mean giving up her life too!
Mariella's face changed, and she pretended to be shocked.
"D-die? No, I don't want to. I still want to have fun...but hey, how can I keep playing without being bothered by the so-called queen's duty?"
Mariella pouted as she plastered her chubby upper body to the marble tea table in front of her.
With all her paws stretched, the whole kid looked like a lazy Gudetama.
"Should I find a lot of capable people like you, dad, and then make them work for me?" Mariella added.
After all, this is Isabella's mindset. If she didn't want to work, why not let people work for her?
This ability was to scout talents...and in the end, the queen or the king would use these talented people for the sake of the kingdom, right?
What's the difference between letting them work for the kingdom and not letting them work for the kingdom?
It's the same thing!
Duke Fez was speechless once more. Isabella's logic was really reasonable, and although it was a bit crooked, he couldn't refute.
Anyway, the kid was still young. She really couldn't become a good queen unless she grew up a bit older.
"Alright, that's a good idea, Lala. If you don't want to do your queen duty, just find a lot of talented people to help you. That way…"
Duke Fez's eyes flashed with a calculating light.
"That way, you can play all day and be worry-free. Those bullies also can't frame you for what you didn't do."
The so-called bullies were, of course, the corrupt ministers and officials.
Mariella's eyes lit up at Duke Fez' words.
Gotcha! Finally, you said what I wanted to say! Hehehe, this is what you suggest Isabella to do, right? It's not Isabella's own clever strategy, right?
This way, it won't be OOC.
Mariella had long wanted to build a good prestige for Isabella and somehow turned the tyrant into a capable queen.
But it would be hard if she couldn't be OOC.
That's how she came with this tactic...letting Duke Fez 'lead' Isabella to be a good queen!
People would think that Isabella was still that annoying tyrant, but she somehow became a better queen, thanks to Duke Fez' education.
With that, she wouldn't have to be OOC, but she could also change Isabella's image in front of others!
Mariella hurriedly straightened her back and nodded at Duke Fez, just like a child who found a new toy.
"Okay, okay, let's quickly find those talented workers– I mean talented people! But how do we find them?"
Mariella let out a sigh, acting like an ignorant child who didn't know anything.
This time, Duke Fez came to the rescue and immediately suggested a good thing.
"How about holding a festival to select talents from the commoners and a charity banquet to select talents from the nobles?"
Mariella's mind was full with the words 'festival' and 'banquet'.
As someone with a playful and naughty character setting, how could she not love parties? Isabella loved parties!
The girl quickly nodded in joy.
"Good, good! I'll leave all the arrangements to dad. I will only use my ability to select people, is that okay?"
Isabella was lazy, so of course, Duke Fez had predicted this.
He calmly nodded and accepted the task of holding a festival for the commoners and a charity banquet for the nobles.
"Okay, leave it to dad. Lala only has to use your ability when the time comes and quickly tell dad."
With that, Mariella achieved her goal by leading Duke Fez by the nose in the dark.
Since she had accomplished her goal, she left Duke Fez and returned to her bedroom to play or take a nap.
Of course, Duke Fez didn't start to prepare for the banquet that day.
After all, tomorrow would be a large-scale execution event, and many commoners would watch the execution.
It would be Isabella's first time appearing in front of a lot of commoners to witness an execution.
All this time, the commoners had never seen Isabella and had only heard of the bad rumors about her.
Thus, even though they knew that Isabella was only a kid, they imagined Isabella to be an ugly, malicious kid.
Maybe they thought of her as a demonic kid or something like that.
But even though Isabella was fat, chubby, and looked like a pig, she's still beautiful.
She inherited her father and her mother's good genes.
No one could deny seeing such a fat, chubby, yet beautiful kid...they could only say that she's cute…
And Mariella intended to take advantage of this fact.
