### Summary
Based on reader reactions, the chapter solidifies a major feminist subplot as Carnelia inadvertently inspires the original heroine, Gracie, to seek power for herself. After Carnelia suggests that "laws can be changed," Gracie considers pursuing the title of Duke in her own right rather than marrying for freedom, a development that has readers enthusiastically cheering for a "revolution" and Gracie's "girl boss era." Despite catalyzing this significant plot deviation, Carnelia remains comically oblivious, still questioning whether she has altered the original story, much to the audience's collective amusement. Concurrently, Prince Caesar, away at war, misinterprets Carnelia's plea for him to "come back soon" as a justification to fight recklessly, sparking concern among readers that he will get himself injured or killed in his haste. The chapter also introduces Gracie's attractive male cousin, who immediately captures significant reader attention for his good looks, with many comparing him to popular video game characters and declaring him a new romantic interest.
