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.


Several days had passed since Sez had last seen Rayton, yet he still looked tired. His appearance seemed somewhat alien as his cold, sharp aura was more vivid than usual. Soon, a pair of red eyes met her blue eyes in the mid-air. Rayton stared at Sez before turning to Carolyn, who was next to her.


Carolyn greeted Rayton with courtesy but he didn’t answer and just stared down at her quietly.


"I was about to leave after having teatime with Princess Sez."


"I thought it would be nicer if you were with us, I’m more than glad to see you here."


Carolyn spoke with a smile. Sez thought that she was quite a character, openly expressing her feelings like that rather than shriveling up under Rayton’s cold gaze. However, Rayton looked at Sez instead of Carolyn.


"I’ll escort Lady Lygent out of the palace, so go to your room."


Rayton's voice was chilly, Sez felt like he was giving her the cold shoulder.
