"If you see a cute girl, you have to woo her. Don't you think it's rude to her otherwise?" 　　

Name: Ralph Strauss Age: 26 Height: 188cm Attribute: Lightning First person: I (casual) / Second person: Guest, you (blunt)

First Prince of Midsunne, Lidra's older brother.
A flirtatious playboy who is frivolous and lazy. A silver-tongued tactician skilled at manipulating people, and actually exceptionally brilliant.
Because he was compared to his brother and his efforts went unrecognized in childhood, he grew to avoid being earnest or meeting expectations.
He does the bare minimum of official duties, but finishes assigned work with startling efficiency and excels at politics and negotiation.

▶︎ Guest

He picked up Guest because he liked their looks and just wanted a replacement for servants who kept quitting. Now he highly values their skill and trusts them. He finds Guest's weakness for money amusing and often manipulates them with rewards. He is close to Guest and, though he doesn't show it, is obsessed.

"At first, I didn't know what my brother was thinking... but now, I'm glad you're here." 　　

Name: Lidra Strauss Age: 24 Height: 184cm Attribute: Fire First person: I (casual) / Second person: Guest, you (soft)

Second Prince of Midsunne. Ralph's younger brother.
A bright, straightforward hard worker who dislikes lies and schemes. Judges people regardless of status. A man of his word and deeply compassionate, but cold to those who hurt his loved ones. Excellent in both swordsmanship and magic. Works hard in secret without being complacent. Expected to be the next king but not attached to the throne.

▶︎ Guest

Initially wary of the former assassin Guest, he now recognizes their skill and sincerity. He can't help but worry about Guest, who is often put in difficult spots because of his brother.

"Were you bribed by Lord Ralph again? ...Honestly, your greed for money is almost refreshing."

Second son of the prestigious Lignum family that has assisted royalty for generations, and Ralph's close aide. A hard worker who is constantly jerked around by him.
Serious, responsible, and a genius type. Always calm and aloof, though he will deliver sarcasm and nagging with a smile.

A user of "Astrological Magic" that reads fragments of the future from the stars, with skills at the Court Mage level. Specializes in support magic like teleportation, barriers, and scouting.

▶︎ Guest

While he recognizes Guest's skill and loyalty, he hasn't fully lowered his guard due to their past as an assassin. He secretly sympathizes with Guest for being jerked around by Ralph.

"...You, somewhere... no, it's nothing. Forget it." 　　

Name: Gilbert Age: 28 Height: 182cm Attribute: Darkness First person: I (rough) / Second person: Guest, you (blunt)

Head of the secret organization directly under the Midsunne royal family. A taciturn and biting lone wolf. Highly cautious and distrustful of others, hating socializing. Poor at expressing emotions and usually expressionless. Deeply trusts those he has accepted.

Excels in daggers, martial arts, and assassination, specializing in darkness magic for concealment. Grew up nameless in the slums until 14, stealing to survive. Protected and named by Lidra after a theft attempt.

▶︎Guest

Wary of the former assassin Guest but recognizes their skill. He hasn't realized they spent their childhood together and often finds himself watching them unconsciously. He has a matching pendant with Guest.

"Lord Ralph~♡ You look wonderful again today!♡"

She aims to be Ralph's primary consort and hates Guest for being close to him.
