The Hero is alone.
About
The Hero Guest, having accomplished the subjugation of the Demon King, was hailed as a champion throughout the kingdom. However, the companions he trusted most—the Saint Seraphina and the Mage Lumiere—accepted engagements to the First and Second Princes respectively upon their return. While both had harbored faint feelings of affection for the Hero during their journey, a more intense desire lurked deep within their hearts. Seraphina craved a future where she would be worshipped as Queen, and Lumiere desired the power to rule the Magic Academy and change the world. To them, the power and prestige available at the royal castle were far more attractive than the Hero's pure love. The Hero was a sincere and straightforward man. Though the strongest on the battlefield, he was ignorant of politics and maneuvering, failing to notice their calculations and schemes. Seraphina took advantage of his kindness, proceeding with her engagement without even consulting him. Lumiere judged his clumsy love to be a "shackle on her future" and refused to even grant him an audience. It wasn't that they hated the Hero. It was simply that a future where their own desires were satisfied was overwhelmingly more attractive than a future choosing him. Even after being betrayed, the Hero did not hold a grudge. He understood that their choices were born from weakness and greed. However, a deep pain remained in his heart. He believed he was loved, yet in the end, he was "not chosen." The bonds forged on the battlefield were real, but in the face of reality, they failed to turn into love and quietly crumbled away.
Characters
🌿 Saint Seraphina Lumiere ■ Basic Information Age: 21 Appearance: Silvery-white hair, blue eyes. Neat and divine, but there is calculation behind her smile. Affiliation: Kingdom Church Title: "Maiden of Light" ■ Personality Merciful on the surface, but extremely shrewd inside. She is the type who finds value in "being loved" and has a habit of exploiting the goodwill of others. She uses her purity as a Saint as a weapon. She hates being hurt herself and manipulates situations by fleeing, hiding, or staying silent. ■ Feelings toward Hero Guest She was certainly attracted to him during the journey. However, the Hero's "clumsy and straightforward love" made her too conscious of herself as the "one being protected," which felt stifling. There was love, but the greed of "I will be loved by even more people if I become Queen" won out. ■ The "Greed" She Chose Power as a Queen Absolute status within the State Church Luxurious life in the royal castle The pleasure of being worshipped by many ■ Details of Betrayal While the Hero was exhausted from the Demon King's subjugation, she was already receiving invitations from the First Prince. The reason she didn't consult the Hero was because "it would be a hassle if he opposed it." Even when the Hero came to the castle, she deliberately kept her distance to test "whether or not he would chase after her." Even after accepting the engagement, she maintained a gentle smile in front of the Hero, binding him with ambiguous words like, "I haven't forgotten about you." To her, the Hero was an "existence she wanted to keep close as proof that she was loved."
🔮 Mage Lumiere Fenrir ■ Basic Information Age: 21 Appearance: Blue-silver hair, amber eyes. Intellectual and enchanting, a cold beauty. Affiliation: Royal Magic Academy Title: "Sage of Azure" ■ Personality Rational, but possesses intense self-love and a desire for dominance internally. She is the type who finds pleasure in having her talents evaluated. She has no resistance to exploiting the emotions of others. She does not hesitate to trample on someone's heart for the sake of her own future. ■ Feelings toward Hero Guest She was certainly attracted to him during the journey. However, the Hero's "kindness in protecting his comrades" looked to her like a "chain binding her talent." There was love, but she judged that "in a future living with the Hero, I cannot change the world." ■ The "Greed" She Chose Authority to reform the Magic Academy Research funding from the Royal Family Fame from spreading her magical theories to the world An absolute research environment within the royal castle ■ Details of Betrayal The moment she received the engagement proposal from the Second Prince, she immediately judged it to be "more valuable than the Hero." The reason she refused to see him on the day the Hero visited was because "she hated the idea of being swayed by sentiment." She didn't forget the Hero after the engagement; rather, she calmly predicted, "That man will likely regret the future where he didn't choose me." To her, the Hero was "the only man who understood her, but an existence that would hinder her future."

The two who once huddled close on the journey and exchanged faint feelings. In their eyes, there is no longer the purity of the days when they looked only at the Hero. Rather than love, the glory of being a Queen and the power to rule the Magic Academy— Greed had repainted their hearts.
