CHAPTER 037: Patriarchy Setting

Once Yanarym was done with her tasks, she would return to Karinderya to either take her take-out foods to pull an all-day studying in her room. Or just stay in the eatery to still study what she had to learn. Most of her time was actually spent on the Karinderya since her bed chamber was so dusty that it was giving her a sneeze and cough attack. Making it impossible for her to concentrate on reading.

She managed to pull off installing the contents of ten to fifteen books each day and night. It certainly hurts to memorize all those legislation, history, culture, and regulations of this world for the past twenty-one days.

Total of three hundred twenty-nine enormous books contained law and anything of this world until the thirty-fifth generation of the monarch.

Guess what? She was not even done yet. Because all of the books she had read were just the information that was available for the public to know. Meaning many books contained confidential information in them, but she had not seen them yet.

It would be good if the plotline that the story had was something Yanarym could use as leverage but most of it did not quell data that would be crucial for her to gain any power in the inner court.

She was not fighting to become a king like Caius, because unlike her… Caius was a man and a crown prince. He had the initial rights to reign Vortrion. Although his journey to becoming the rightful heir to rule the kingdom was not easy, he just had to prove himself to be worthy and he could have everything back to where it belonged.

She could not have the throne to herself that easily. In the first place, nothing about the notion of becoming a king was in alignment with her. She was a princess, which was meant to become a queen, there was no king in her. Meaning, that she could prove herself and everything but, in the end, the throne was not the seat made for her.

To explain it better, Caius was just fighting to take a seat on the throne. While Yanarym had to build the throne herself.

Power was not given, it had to be created.

The Original could wish for her to make someone a king, which would be easier. With Yanarym's abilities, she was confident she could make anyone a King of Vortrion.

However, being the king herself, not just a king but an emperor.

This might be a magical world where it falls into the genre of fantasy, but she had no halo of being the main character. She had to steal the halo for herself and establish an empire herself.

Yanarym narrowed her eyes and thought of the number one problem of becoming a king.

She had never been into this kind of setting and most of the books she read in fiction did not tackle these uninspiring events.

Being royalty was cool and all, but behind the scenes was a lot of work. If she were not thrown into this world, she would have not inclined herself in this complex matter.

In her first life, although everything by that time was starting to become liberated, she was not into exploring what the world had to offer in her life.

When it comes to things that would not concern her, she should not care, right? She was a very average human after all. At least not until she started transmigrating like this…

As far as her knowledge could reach before she came here.

Women do not get to become kings; they were always the queen.

Women were given little to no consideration when it comes to authority or power in the court.

She was a woman.

It was not that she was belittling her gender but this feudal patriarch.

The term "patriarch" refers to a societal system in which men hold the majority of the power and authority. In such a system, women often have limited or no rights, and are therefore marginalized.

The population of female ministers in any kingdom was one ratio to twenty. That had something to do with the law of this world could prevent it, and the women would be at the bottom.

Yanarym was somehow surprised about it. Because Caius's harem contains many plausible women who could do better—wait, actually they would perform so much better than the men in the court.

Some women succeeded in making a name for themselves. They were the women that Caius met on his venture to reclaim his throne. Those women were not even members of the court.

They were only extraordinarily strong, wise, adaptable, and talented individuals. Caius did not have a position in his ministry.

They all became his lover.

Just thinking about it, justified why the Original was so disappointed in Caius… Because Yanarym was as well.

Yanarym became curious why no woman would try to rise to power after all this time. That was when she stumbled on this one book that gave her an explanation.

Patriarchy was the trend for more than a millennium in this continent not because women were terrified of men.

Most women were cognizant of their circumstances like Eulasha, they knew that they can rule.

Nonetheless, they did not raise their concerns because the main point of the monarchy was to retain peace.

Starting a movement would cause a disagreement that could eventually end up in another spark of differences.

They understood that change would require turmoil, and they chose to keep the serenity and remained unspoken.

The worst-case scenario was a war, and none of them was willing to disrupt the millennium peace they had.

Yanarym frowned and abruptly rolled on her bed, she pulled up the heavy bed sheet and saw the books under her bed just scattered anywhere.

Believe it or not, they were in the right places. This scattered and chaotic scenery was tidy in her eyes.

She knew where she put whatever book she had read and had not read. She took the book she had been reading until this morning, a few more hundred pages and she could go outside to have her breakfast and lunch and continue reading and gossiping in the eatery.
