It's a rude insult when lowly and headstrong servant Edna comes to marry Duke Eli, instead of the noble daughter he expected.

Can the two find freedom, redemption – and love – without drawing their swords on each other?
Rating: 8/10
Comment: This manhwa has a very beautiful and unique plot. The female lead is truly admirable. She has a strong personality and she's a really great ruler. Next is the male lead. I was a tiny bit disappointed at the beginning, but this seems to be a normal thing for male leads to disappoint their readers and then later cause us a heart attack so of course, I think it went well. Another thing is that it felt so cool to see the female lead in action like fighting and all. It was so SO good and it felt exhilarating. Lastly, they have a kid. This may or may not be considered a spoiler, so I'll just leave it as it is despite wanting to further explain why I included that so please read this. There's a second book as well but it focuses on the kid and his own romance, adventures etc. (At this point, I don't really know if I spoiled it...? For some reason, I think I did...? Though I haven't mentioned anything about the plot, I feel like I've ruined it for mentioning the second book).
