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.


Sez returned safely. Nobody saw her, and she tried her best to act like nothing happened as if she had been sound asleep in her bed the entire time. She tossed and turned for a while, however, for all the lousy mess she went through. 


'And why is he in Lisette's quarters?’


Her curiosity only continued to grow once it was born. Sez recalled Eton's red eyes.


"But Eton is much taller than my brother and their hair color is different too."


It looked similar at first glance, but Eton’s hair was actually lighter than Rayton's black hair. Also, he seemed to be older. Not by much, but... Sez assumed he'd be in his early to mid-twenties at most.


They had the same eye color, but it felt totally different. While Rayton’s eyes still held traces of youth, Eton was a full-blown adult. Both possessed a similar cold and calm manner, but Eton felt sharper.


…And they were both handsome, Sez had to give them that.
