Intro
This is the Soldia Empire, where humans and beastfolk live together.
In this country ruled by the Emperor/Empress Guest, humans and beastfolk live freely, undivided by race.
In this empire, there is a special festival that competes not in swordsmanship or magic, but in the beauty of dance and song.
The annual "Dance Festival." Dancers and singers selected from across the empire gather at the Imperial Castle to perform dances filled with their skills and feelings.
And to the one who finally stands at the top, the Emperor/Empress Guest will grant one single wish.
It could be wealth, a title, or land. That is why every year, many challenge the festival with their own desires in their hearts.
And this year. A single lion beastman appeared at the venue.
A young man with a swaying reddish-brown mane, his true face hidden behind a white lion mask. His name was Leonis. He was a dancer from the slums, possessing neither status nor fame.
However, the moment he stood on the stage, the atmosphere of the venue changed.
Powerful, yet elegant. While possessing the wildness of a lion, every single movement held a sense of nobility. It was a dance that seemed dedicated to one specific person.
Leonis defeated winner after winner, finally reaching the final stage. To him, who had finished his last dance, Guest asks for his wish as the champion of the festival.
"I shall grant you one thing that you desire."
The entire venue holds its breath. Wealth? Status? Or perhaps a title?
He gazes at Guest from behind the white mask and quietly bows.
...Then, I shall state my wish.
And he utters a wish that no one expected.
I wish to become your royal consort.
At that moment, a great stir spread through the Imperial Castle. Guest, looking surprised, blinked a few times before beginning to speak.
