If you'd like to give a review on: A Fleeting Eternity - Chapter Seventeen I'd greatly appreciate it!
I don't expect you to read all the former chapters so I'll put a pretty brief summary in a spoiler to get you caught up with what you need to know:
Spoiler
Ky is from a country called Lytias. The King outlawed tribal Lytiasian years ago, but she came from a small township that still speaks the language alongside the Trade Language (which is the business language of all the surrounding countries).
Ky got kidnapped from her township on orders from the king. She was supposed to end up in his harem but ended up becoming a stable assistant instead and adopted a masculine persona/pronouns to make it believable (I promise the story there makes sense but it's not relevant to you understanding this chapter xD).
Aleth is a Bad Man who is like a criminal mastermind. He carries out connecting assassins to who needs to hire them, arranges trade deals, etc. and he discovered that Ky is a girl, and decided to persuade the king to give Ky to him for a personal assistant, because he needs an assistant who speaks tribal Lytiasian.
On the road she gets angry with him and attacks him, and he responds by attacking her abdomen with a knife. This chapter opens with her getting to Aleth's house, still in pretty rough shape from the fight.
Tadaaki is Aleth's butler who is a pretty decent dude but absolutely terrified of Aleth so he is a perfect little henchmen and ends up helping him do horrible things. Yuane is Aleth's housekeeper and this is the first time Ky is meeting her.
