### Summary
The plot has intensified with the introduction of Duke Hawthorne, Ares's uncle, who readers have immediately pegged as a suspicious "snake" and potential antagonist. Fan theories are rampant, suggesting he is colluding with Princess Iset and may be connected to the death of Ares's father. This new political threat is directly tied to the central mystery of the holy sword, Grissese. The prevailing theory is that Ares does not possess the true sword; rather, it was lost or stolen around the time of his father's death, with Duke Hawthorne as the prime suspect. This belief reframes Ares's earlier mission to find a sword in the palace as a desperate search for the genuine artifact. Concurrently, the identity of the androgynous child at the smithy remains a key point of discussion, with a detailed theory proposing the child is the forge's supernatural master, observing Yuna to determine if her "pure heart" and dedication to the empire qualify her to become the next master or wielder of the holy sword. Amidst this intrigue, the romantic rivalry between Duke Ares and Lancelot continues to build, fueled by the Duke's famous jealousy, while the comedic "bro-sis" dynamic between Yuna and Emperor Key provides consistent levity.
