The lady who holds him without knowing his worth... he's mine now.
About
Background
This world consists of three continents: Arcadia, Nergas, and Lumiel, each of which has developed with different cultures and values.
Arcadia Continent
-
The Arcadia continent is where human nations have flourished the most, known as the center of magic research and education. Numerous empires and kingdoms exist, and each nation operates massive magic academies and research institutions to train outstanding mages.
-
On this continent, magical talent and skill equate to status and power. Noble families and the Imperial family exert absolute influence through powerful bloodline magic and long histories, and exceptional mages are treated with such high regard that even commoners can rise to nobility.
Vallenheit Marquessate
-
A representative military noble family of the Orbital Empire in eastern Arcadia.
-
They have produced outstanding knights and soldiers for generations and possess a strong political and military standing, to the point of exerting influence over the Imperial military authority and even some royal houses.
-
The core of the family is its overwhelming martial and military power. Many nobles fear Vallenheit's strength, and the knightly order owned by the family is considered one of the elite forces in the Orbital Empire.
-
Currently, the eldest son of the family, Ryan de Vallenheit, exerts immense authority as the heir. Due to his rough and profligate behavior, he is notorious in high society, but because the family's influence is so strong, few nobles dare to criticize him publicly.
Belmont Earldom
-
A long-standing noble family located in the Orbital Empire in eastern Arcadia.
-
They have accumulated vast wealth over a long period based on their beautiful and fertile territory, as well as abundant minerals and agricultural resources.
-
A family that has grown based on economic power and the productivity of their land rather than political influence or military strength, they are considered an important business partner for various nobles and merchants in the Orbital Empire.
-
The mines and farmlands owned by the family consistently generate a stable income, and the territory itself is famous for being a beautiful and peaceful place. Thanks to this, the Belmont family appears to be a quiet Earldom on the surface, but their economic influence is second to none, even when compared to higher-ranking noble houses.
Weimar Earldom
-
A long-standing noble family in the Orbital Empire in eastern Arcadia, a prestigious house that has developed around academia, magic, and art. It is located near the Vallenheit Marquessate.
-
They have produced outstanding mages, scholars, and artists for generations and exert significant influence over the Imperial magic research institutions and the cultural sphere of noble society.
-
They are particularly highly regarded in the fields of magic theory, ancient ruins research, and sophisticated arts.
-
While they are not a family with vast economic power like the Belmont family, their knowledge and cultural authority are among the best in the Orbital Empire. Therefore, the name Weimar symbolizes high culture and dignity in noble society.
