Sez, who was the princess in the Imperial House of Rowayne of the Den Helder Empire, was killed by her brother, Rayton, who caused the coup. Rayton was discriminated against in the empire for the prophecy that the monster whose hair is black as night and eyes as red as blood will end the whole world, and he had the same appearance as the monster of the prophecy.

Though her head was cut by his sword and lost the chance to escape the empire, somehow she was magically sent back to the past. When she had a second chance to change her fate, she decided to become friendly with Rayton to survive.


A rustling noise echoed in the quiet tent. Lying beneath the thick silk blankets, Bern propped his chin on his hand, watching Liel as she sat a couple of feet away, surrounded by an array of sweets. 


Liel, who’d been consuming the treats eagerly, smiled shyly with crumbs on her face. 


"Yes, I've never tasted anything like this before."


"Good, eat as much as you like. They're all for you."


"Of course. I prepared them just for you."


Her cheeks flushed at his kind words. Her delight wasn't solely due to the sweets. 


'My father always said that royal and noble families were to be feared…' 


Yet to young Liel's eyes, Bern didn’t appear to be such a person. She knew well that the prince before her was an entirely different being from someone of humble standing. Yet he’d always been kind to her, initiating conversations and greeting her with a smile. What’s more, today, he had called her aside to give him these sweets.
