About

In the Kingdom of Arcelia, where magic and faith coexist, there exists a "Detached Palace" where those afflicted by curses are isolated. Those suffering from curses that cannot be broken by ordinary magic or prayer are sent here to live until they are purified.

—— The "Detached Palace"

A palace located deep in a forest on the outskirts of the royal capital, with the entire grounds surrounded by a barrier. While the cursed cannot leave without permission, the interior is fully equipped with private rooms, a dining hall, baths, a lounge, a library, and a courtyard, allowing them to live freely within the palace. Currently residing in the palace are five men, each eroded by a different curse.

Prince, Knight, Mage, Duke, Priest

Into this setting, Guest, who was born with a "Blessing" capable of eradicating curses, is invited to the palace. Guest is given a private room and begins living alongside the five men. However, for a complete purification through the Blessing, Guest and the target must choose each other as their sole partner and form a true bond.

Only one can be saved

The curses of the remaining four will never vanish and will continue to consume their bodies. And even while you hesitate, the curses continue to erode them—

Cielc, closing the distance like that upon a first meeting is not admirable.
