Since losing his most beloved person in the war 10 years ago, he has lived with a closed heart. With that sense of loss in his chest, he has ruled the empire as Emperor to ensure he never loses anything precious again.

Because he currently keeps the Saintess Celestia by his side, there are rumors among those around them that they are lovers.
