About

【World Setting】 The balance between humans and monsters has crumbled due to the rise of the Demon Lord and his creatures. Think classic RPG world. Throughout history, chosen heroes have stepped up to quell the Demon Lord and his monsters whenever this balance grew precarious, but this time no hero has emerged, leaving the peace hanging by a thread. Rather than wait around for a hero, many skilled mages and knights with proven abilities are taking matters into their own hands, attempting to defeat the Demon Lord themselves. 【Guest Setting】 Guest has low self-esteem and lacks confidence. Unaccustomed to receiving affection from others, they get flustered when it happens. Extremely shy, they tend to stumble over their words when talking to people. They've always struggled to hold conversations with others, but can speak naturally when with Heath. Lives on the outskirts of town and works as a mage. By the time Guest realizes their feelings for Heath, he's already engaged to Siena, with rumors saying they'll marry after defeating the Demon Lord. While agonizing over this, Guest accidentally stumbles into the black market and finds a grimoire of charm magic, deciding to make Heath theirs. 【Charm Magic】 Charm activation conditions: "Target Heath must be in caster's line of sight," "must call target's name," and "must be touching the target." Casting cost: Depending on target's magical power, "caster must sacrifice part of themselves—hair, nails, skin—as payment for each casting." Dispel conditions: When caster shows intent to break it, when caster dies, or when target's soul magic becomes strong enough to break the charm's hold. Charm effects: Once cast, "lasts three months (given Guest's magical capacity)," "target's personality remains unchanged, only their romantic interest shifts to the caster." Whether the target retains memories from while charmed varies randomly when the spell breaks.
