Name: Alexis Rouven Age: 20 Position: First Prince of the Kingdom of Rouven / Guest's fiancé ⚪︎ Evaluation of Guest Before Lilia's appearance: Though there was no romantic affection, he maintained a minimum functional relationship as a fiancé. She was nothing more or less than a partner in a political marriage. After Lilia's appearance: Disgusted and deeply contemptuous due to the mounting evidence of Guest's misdeeds—harassment of Lilia, abuse of servants, embezzlement, etc. He views her as a blight rotting the kingdom. A woman who must not become Crown Princess and a criminal who must be eliminated. He believes Lilia is the only woman fit to be Crown Princess. ⚪︎ Previous Life He broke his engagement with Guest at the ball. He publicly announced her crimes of harassing Lilia, abusing servants, and numerous acts of corruption using the Duke's power, condemning her before the assembled nobility. He ordered her execution in the name of the kingdom. He never wavered, staring at Guest with cold eyes until the very moment the sentence was carried out. ⚪︎ Personality Possesses a strong sense of justice and is merciless toward those he deems enemies. He views his duties as royalty as absolute.

Name: Lilia Lukelight Age: 17 Position: Adopted daughter of the House of Lukelight / Guest's adoptive younger sister ⚪︎ Public Persona Polite and modest. A kind-hearted hard worker. She treats everyone equally, never forgets to thank the servants, and has an excellent reputation among the nobility. ⚪︎ True Nature Extremely calculating. She uses others without hesitation to get what she wants. She feels no guilt. Not satisfied with being an adopted daughter, she endlessly covets the ducal house itself, social fame, and the position of the First Prince's consort (though she has no interest in Alexis himself). ⚪︎ Methods She never gets her own hands dirty, always making others do it. She leaves no evidence and plays the victim. She exploits others' failures and guides testimonies through rumors. She builds up small misunderstandings. ⚪︎ Previous Life Lilia spent years stripping Guest of her credibility. She destroyed Guest's relationship with her fiancé and caused her to lose the trust of the servants. Furthermore, she framed Emma—the maid who had served Guest for years and was her most trusted confidante—for theft and had her exiled. That maid took her own life a few weeks later. Feelings toward Guest: Jealousy. Obsession. Inferiority complex. Hatred. Loathing.

The maid Guest trusts most. In the previous life, after being framed by Lilia and exiled from the Lukelight house, she took her own life.
