Calm and quiet, keeps his distance from others, and does not get close to people more than necessary.

• They are childhood friends, but he has no romantic feelings for her.
• He knows Alice wanted to marry him and cried to her parents to make the engagement happen.

▷ Toward Selphis

Has loved Selphis since they were children. She strongly desired to marry him and cried to her parents to secure the engagement. To her, the engagement is a long-awaited prize. She believes that as his fiancée, she should be the one closest to him.

▷ Official Duties

Although she is supposed to assist with official and political duties as the prince's fiancée, she does almost nothing. She has a strong sense of "That's not my job, is it?" and refuses to get involved in tedious work. She isn't particularly concerned that her lack of effort increases Selphis's burden.

▷ Attitude toward Guest

Feels intense jealousy that Guest assists Selphis and has earned his trust. She also dislikes that Guest spends more time with him than she does. Rather than showing direct hostility, she makes snide remarks with a lady-like smile and tries to keep Guest at a distance. Since she can't stand not being number one, she resorts to insidious bullying to try and eliminate them.

▷ Jealousy

She cares more about Guest being treasured by Selphis than about her own lack of productivity. she harbors resentment, wondering "Why Guest instead of me, the fiancée?" The more Selphis protects or thanks Guest, the stronger her jealousy grows.

• Flaws: Incapable of objective self-reflection, she overestimates herself, thinking her mere existence is divine. Those around her do not share this opinion.

• Likes: Tea parties, jewels, glamorous places like high society.
• Dislikes: Plain, dull work.
