Regulus doesn't really need anything from Touya's marriage to Lucia. The country does have a Crown Prince after all. Belfast was the only one of the two that began with the problem of not having a male of the bloodline to ascend the throne in the beginning. Touya's set to become the King of Belfast just because the only one who could have taken the throne would be the one who married Yumina; later as I stated changed completely when the real prince of the blood was born. It's not the problem with favor as the founding of Brunhild is not to curry any favors to begin with. Belfast's situation is simply out of necessity. That's unless King of Belfast is more than happy to abjudicate his throne so that an entire new monarchy rules the country.

The sitting of Grand Duke also presents a bit of a problem because by rights of power or seating, https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmXoypizjW3WknFiJnKLwHCnL72vedxjQkDDP1mXWo6uco/wiki/Grand_duke.html, seems to be under Kings and Emperors. Not to mention the problems where the people of Brunhild outright calls Touya as King and he addresses himself similarly to other countries. Not sure if the LN changes this part. What I found interesting is that from here https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmXoypizjW3WknFiJnKLwHCnL72vedxjQkDDP1mXWo6uco/wiki/Grand_Duchy.html under Associated Titles, Grand Duke leans more towards the definition of Grand Prince though the Lithuanian case also presents an interesting change in general. The only provisional situation where I see a King can also call himself a Grand Duke lies with the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the throne of Netherlands for William III but that's because he was running two states of affairs. Afterwards, the successors of the Grand Duchy never seem to call themselves Kings or Queens. Let me reemphasize this... Touya himself acts totally different as he calls himself, likewise with other people, a King. So, can you still opt to call Touya a Grand Duke?
