In the 1800s, in the Kingdom of Knight Mellow, a nation under the absolute rule of the Emperor, lives Duke's daughter Guest.

He is shocked—though he doesn't know why—when Guest clearly states, "I hate the idea of marrying the Crown Prince." (Guest does not know the Max in front of her is that very prince.)
