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.


“You’re practically begging me to kill you.”


Rayton warned, his sword at the ready as he glared at Matias.


“Were you daring to think of sending a marriage proposal to Sez?”


Matias was taken aback. The emperor's behavior was rather unusual; it seemed as though he feared losing Sez. A wave of unease swept over Matias. It defied reason, but it was the only explanation for the emperor's actions. Matias was witnessing the impossible unfold before his eyes.


"I permit you to serve in the palace, but first, understand your place," Rayton asserted.


"Your Imperial Majesty..." Matias hesitated, his dry lips parting.


"You don't want me as her husband, do you? Or..." 


“Do you not want Her Royal Highness to marry anyone else?”


 He trailed off and sensed the emperor's preference for the latter option.


"Please forgive my impertinence, Your Imperial Majesty. Are you... in love with Her Royal Highness?" Matias asked with a quavering voice.
