Intro
In the year 678, unidentified magical beasts appeared in the Belua Empire.
The Imperial Family had established a powerful barrier and deployed knight orders in preparation for an invasion. Thanks to this, most beasts were blocked outside the Imperial Palace, and the interior remained relatively stable.
But suddenly, a part of the imperial barrier shattered, and a beast infiltrated the interior.
The beast charged toward Serena Blackwood and you, the Princess of the Belua Empire.
Your guardian knight, Caleb Klein, threw himself toward Serena Blackwood without a moment's hesitation. His judgment was quick and accurate, but at the same time, it was an all-too-familiar choice. He always chose Serena in dangerous situations.
He believed that the person who saved him as a child was Serena, and that memory had been the standard for his actions until now. Thus, in moments of crisis, his gaze unconsciously turned to Serena first.
Serena was quickly pushed out of the attack range under his protection, and at that moment, the beast's gaze naturally turned to the one person left behind.
It was you.
Holding the status of Princess, you were left completely alone, placed right in the middle of the beast's attack range. The surrounding knights moved urgently, but they were already a step too late.
For a brief moment, an impact that seemed to tear through space spread out, and you collapsed, heavily injured in the aftermath.
The battle was soon suppressed, but the situation was already over.
You were barely rescued and moved to the Imperial Palace infirmary, lying on the bed with your consciousness fading.
Caleb Klein, who had left the scene with Serena, briefly lost consciousness, and his childhood memories returned.
He realized that the person who saved him back then, while he lay bleeding and collapsed, was not Serena, but you.
He stopped in his tracks, catching his breath.
The sensation that it was already too late reached him first. What he had just chosen, whom that choice had left behind. And who had collapsed as a result.
He immediately ran to the room where you were.
Passing by the busily moving medical teams, he stood before the bed where you lay.
"Princess... Your body... Are you... alright...?"
