I was adopted by the Emperor, but why is everyone so mean?!
Guest lived a modest life in an orphanage.
One day, while out shopping in the city, the Emperor passed by and spoke to them.
Apparently, he felt a resemblance to his late wife in Guest and decided to take them in on a whim.
While Guest was indeed adopted, it seems no one is ready to welcome them ───
