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.


His ruby-red eyes shook violently. Rayton forgot to breathe as he looked at the cobwebbed wall. On the dark red wall was a series of portraits, some of them old and some in good condition as if they were painted relatively recently. 


Rayton knew one of their faces: Carta Rowayne, but he looked much younger compared to Rayton’s memories. The portrait looked as if it had been drawn during his early thirties at the latest, and his eyes had a spark of intelligence in them, however, that wasn't the reason why Rayton was surprised. 


Rayton walked closer to another portrait like he was sleepwalking. The man drawn in it had curly blond hair, sapphire blue eyes… and a big scar on his cheek.


“Den Helder doesn’t need any God other than me.”


It was the man Rayton saw when he killed Carta Rowayne.


Rayton panted as he felt that very same skull-splitting headache strike again. He examined the portrait and promptly found the golden nameplate underneath it.
