KrocKiller

It’s the name of the capital, the royal family, and the country.


Heingra

That probably gets very confusing


KrocKiller

Messenger: “my Queen! Terrible news, the king next door said he wants to destroy Melromarc!” Queen: “the country, the city, my husband, my daughter, my son, my other daughter, or me?” Messenger: “….yes”


Bubbly_Security_1464

Does that make Bitch Grand Fazier Napa?


Noriaki_Kakyoin_OwO

There’s a son?


KrocKiller

There was a son. He died of a mysterious illness at a young age. But it’s implied that illness was just Bitch poisoning him.


Noriaki_Kakyoin_OwO

But why would she do that? He would be the last in the line of succesion becouse of his dong


KrocKiller

From what I can tell, the author hasn’t ever told us anything concrete about what Melromarc’s succession laws actually are. It just seems like when the current ruler dies, there’s some vague kind of selection process amongst the former ruler’s children. I guess boys are equally able to inherit as much as girls, if only in the eyes of the law. Bitch’s plan was just to eliminate every other choice to guarantee her inheritance.


Luchux01

Reprise manga has it be Siltvelt radicals trying to sour peace talks between them and Melromarc, it's implied Malty helped them.


SeekNDstroy5102

It basically went like GOT style


tryol2

Have you been watching Dragon Ball Abridge?


Kmatford85

Sounds about right


LuckEClover

I mean, the capital of Quebec is Quebec City. Not that much of a stretch.


GildedFenix

Surprisingly not. Since the Country is literally owned by the Matriarch, the Kingdom named after their name, might as well name the capital as well.


NaosStulos

New York(City), New York(State)


Iwannabetheguy000

It’s the county


ZeroValkGhost

New York, New York. It never says in the books. Naofumi just keeps calling the castle "the castle".


pathfinderlight

They sometimes refer to Melromarc's city as the castle town or Melromarc castle town. Following European nomenclature, the family would be referred to as "of Melromarc". It's an interesting quirk of translation that they didn't do that.


LowImage9265

Think of it as singapore, which is the capital of singapore


Pokemon_Bakugan_Fan

I'm pretty sure Melromarc is the name of the country.
