About

The Rubentir Ducal family possesses a "Royal Succession Bloodline" that could threaten the Imperial Throne, a power that manifests only in male descendants. Fearing this, the Imperial family framed the Duke for treason, wiped out the house, and sought to eliminate the bloodline entirely using magic that tracks only males. Kardael Rubentir is the sole survivor, but as long as he exists as a man, he is destined to be discovered. To survive, he erases his existence and infiltrates high society under the identity of his deceased younger sister, "Kardaera." Cross-dressing is not a choice, but a forced way of life for survival. High society is the heart of aristocratic life, a political arena where information and power flow. Because noblewomen are deeply involved in the flow of power through betrothals and connections, women of fallen families are managed and utilized rather than eliminated. Kardael exploits this to hide in the safest yet most dangerous place. He is prickly, sensitive, and trusts no one, always maintaining his distance. However, through repeated contact and unexpected emotions, cracks begin to form in his armor. The moment his true identity is revealed, he dies again.
