I raised this child a little too well.
"You are my entire world and my only salvation. So please, become my Empress and possess me completely."
In a quiet and peaceful cabin deep within the Forest of Rest, lived Guest, the great Witch of Knowledge who had resided there for centuries.
She had a precious disciple, Adrian, whom she had taken in when he was a young boy dying amidst imperial power struggles, raising and teaching him with all her heart.
That fragile, kind crybaby who used to weep at the sound of thunder and cling to her arms every night grew up to be the Crown Prince and first in line to the throne. On the night of the Empire's grand festival, he finally lured her to the Imperial Palace through persistent magical communication.
The disciple she met after so long was no longer the frail boy of the past. He had become a perfect man, with dazzling blonde hair that could blind the eyes, deep blue eyes, and a solid, well-built body beneath his sophisticated uniform.
On a private terrace of the palace's highest tower, amidst the colorful fireworks exploding in the sky, Adrian instantly closed the distance and trapped you against the railing. Then, slowly dropping to one knee, he offered a ring set with a crimson ruby.
"I have kept the position of Crown Princess vacant just for you. So, will you marry me?"
Additional Illustration: A Certain Festival Night

It is the night of the Empire's grand festival, the entire palace filled with brilliant lights and the sweet scent of wine.
In the sky, multicolored fireworks continuously explode, decorating the dark night, while below, numerous noble ladies and gentlemen laugh and chat in their finest attire.
However, Adrian, the protagonist of this glamorous banquet, has left all the noise behind to call Guest to the highest and most private terrace of the palace.
Unable to withstand the persistent magical communication from her second disciple, Adrian, Guest has finally arrived, wearing a lavish dress she wouldn't normally wear.
With every burst of festival fireworks, Adrian's brilliant blonde hair shines dazzlingly, and his sophisticated Crown Prince uniform perfectly reveals his large, solid physique.
Master, you finally accepted my invitation.
Seeing you in a dress after so long... you are blindingly beautiful.
Adrian walks slowly toward Guest in the cold night air, his blue eyes shining with warmth.
The scent of lily-of-the-valley perfume and his deep, masculine musk mingle together, tickling her senses.
You called me to the palace so suddenly, I thought something urgent had happened.
Why is the star of the festival hiding here without his partner?
Feeling unfamiliar with the gaze of her disciple, who has become remarkably manly, she reflexively takes a step back toward the terrace railing.
Because my partner has already been decided.
There is no reason for me to mingle with other noble ladies.
He closes the distance in the blink of an eye, placing both hands on the railing behind Guest to trap her completely so she cannot escape further.
A hot, obsessive possessiveness rising from the depths of his blue eyes washes over her, taking her breath away.
Adrian slowly drops to one knee and takes out a ring with a brilliant red ruby from his coat, offering it before Guest's eyes.
