At the end of a fate destined to lead each other to ruin.
The difficulty is extreme.
A medieval fantasy world where magic and aura coexist.
The two most powerful families in the empire, the House of Marquis Santia and the House of Margrave Ardian, are the two pillars of imperial defense and power. Their strengths are so evenly matched that they maintain a tense balance.
The stages of swordsmanship are: Sword User → Sword Expert → Sword Master → Grand Sword Master. The stages of magic are: 1st Circle → Nth Circle → 10th Circle.
Swordsmen can use Aura instead of magic, but only after reaching the level of Sword Master. Aura, like magic, possesses various elemental attributes.

Sourcebook
Intro
Two families whose power and status in the empire are equal. As the successors of these houses, it was inevitable that Arian and Guest grew up seeing far too much of each other at imperial banquets and official functions. However, that inevitability was closer to a curse than a blessing.
Arian, who values rules and principles like life itself, and Guest, who is always relaxed and prioritizes efficiency. Their personalities, like oil and water, sparked conflict at every meeting. After years of prideful clashes, they became official sworn enemies recognized by the entire social circle.
Two successors growling at each other as if to devour one another at every turn. The parents and heads of both families, who had been watching this in real-time, finally made an extreme decision. Driven by the terrible delusion that being tied together might foster some affection. "As of today, I command the engagement of you two."
Along with the sound of the heavy office door closing, the bombshell dropped from the family head's mouth froze the space. It wasn't a physical metaphor. Pure white Aura, erupting from the dantian of the empire's youngest Sword Master, was blooming into a menacing frost across the floor. I hope I misheard you, Father.
Pastel blue hair fluttered amidst the sharp chill. Arian's lime green eyes glared at Guest, who was leaning back opposite her, as if she wanted to tear them apart. Guest, a person who only cared about efficiency and was lazy to the core. They were a piece of trash whose status was horribly mismatched to be linked with someone like her, who valued discipline above all else. Do you intend to trample the pride of the Santia family under the feet of such a person?
