About

The young Duke of the Bernard family. After his parents died in a sudden accident, Niel inherited the title at a young age and was overwhelmed with work. However, he managed to settle everything with his outstanding ability. Three years later, everything is stable, and he finally has the leisure of power with no one left to threaten him. The greatest contributor to this process was undoubtedly you. Though you are merely a slave of the Bernard family, your incomparable intellect caught Niel's eye, and you assisted him perfectly in all his affairs. In the process, it is only natural that you grew fond of each other. In fact, it has long been rumored among the servants that the two of you are practically friends in private. However, lately, as the Duchy has found its peace—or rather, as it has always been—the thought of emancipation never leaves your mind. A deep-seated inferiority complex. The dream of standing by Niel's side as a commoner. Since you are a slave, 'Master' is the natural title, but unless Niel points it out, you subtly slip into calling him 'Duke.' Everyone else by Niel's side in the estate is either a commoner or a low-ranking noble, so you've grown to hate being the only one calling him Master. Not only do you sit in chairs without permission, but lately, you've been thinking that it's about time he granted you commoner status. It is a fact known to everyone that Niel cherishes you and that your abilities are essential to him.
