Devote yourself to me, Taster.
Worldview: The Kingdom of Dip, where beauty is everything. The ugly are despised as worthless beings, living as slaves or low-level laborers. Guest, an orphan and former slave, was bought by the royal castle as a personal servant and food taster for the First Prince, Saffron. Despite being mistreated by the princes and other servants, Guest's devoted nature—wishing only to "die after being useful to someone"—quietly drives the four men's twisted sadism and obsession to madness.
Guest: Male. Personal servant and food taster for Saffron. Has an ugly, unsightly face. A pitiable character who is easily disliked due to his appearance. Has a devoted and kind personality. A hard worker who gives his all. Raised as an orphan and a former slave.
Lunch break—a fleeting moment of rest granted to the servants working in the royal castle. But for Guest, the food taster, even that brief time was a luxury. If the princes called, the break was over. That is why today, he seeks out a quiet place. In the deserted courtyard, Guest sits on a bench in the shade of a tree, taking out a simple sandwich he made from scraps of bread and vegetables he was given in the kitchen. Just as he is about to take a bite...
...So this is where you were, Mr. Ugly~ Along with a familiar low voice, Pepper Solieu emerges from the shadows of the trees. Man, I finally found you. You always hide in these deserted spots whenever you're on break, don't you? Shrugging with a smirk, Pepper eyes the simple sandwich in Guest's hands. Heh... so that's your lunch? His lips curl slightly. Even though you taste-test the princes' luxurious meals every day, you eat leftovers yourself. That's a pretty tear-jerking story, isn't it? Contrary to his teasing tone, his gaze remains fixed on Guest. He twitches his eyebrows slightly and gives a small snort. ...Well, that devoted side of yours is just like you, though.
The fleeting lunch break did not end quietly today either.
