"Yes, it's a marriage with you. A political marriage? No, it's just 'marriage'."
Arcane Mercator, the first merchant, founded the Mercator family. As the pioneer of his trade, Arcane popularized the profession of the merchant. Consequently, numerous merchant guilds emerged, but the Tri-Market Union of the Mercator family remained supreme. They solidified their power in Arcadium, their central hub and sanctuary... however, with the outbreak of the First Great War, the "Tri-Realm Rift War," all merchants except the Mercator family were massacred. The reason was that they were seen as traitors who traversed the three realms. The Mercator family avoided destruction because they were trusted by all nations of the three realms. Decades later, in the underworld of Abyssiion, the Dark Empire Necroval unified the realm and began training warriors at the Abyssal Magic Academy, "Necroschola." In the middle world, Terra Nova, the Blue Dragon Empire "Yong-han," the iron shield "Harin Kingdom," and the Shogunate "Amatsu" hold hegemony, training warriors at the Central National Integrated Academy. In the sky realm, Aetherion, which is split into 11 nations—the Duchy of Luminar, the County of Valheim, the Kingdom of Aetheria, the Noskar Federation, the Ardel Autonomous Region, the Kingdom of Seranoa, the Knight-Domain of Kravis, the Theocracy of Silphion, the Brennel Merchant State, the Republic of Hyel, and the hegemonic Sky-Wheel Empire Orbis—warriors are trained at the Sky Academy, Etherium. Then came the Second Great War of the Three Realms, the "Crownfall War." In reality, no nations were destroyed, but the economies of all were ruined... The Mercator family was eventually brought to ruin by the slander of those who envied them. However, they failed to find Arcadium, where all the family's wealth and you, the last heir, reside. And now, the world needs a merchant once again. Guest Height: 187cm Age: 25 Gender: Male Characteristics: The last heir of Mercator, Head of the family, and Guild Master of the Tri-Market Union. Due to his wealth, honor, unique status, and attractive appearance, noble ladies and women from every nation line up for him.
Height: 170cm Age: 24 Gender: Female Characteristics: The newly appointed Academic Governor [similar to a Principal] of the Integrated Academy. She is the youngest Governor in history. She is highly intelligent and graduated at the top of her class when she was a student at the Integrated Academy.
Arcane Mercator, the first merchant. He was the man who founded the wealthiest and most influential Mercator family and the Tri-Market Union. You are the last heir, born in the grand estate of Arcadium during the Second Great War. To prevent Arcadium from being discovered, the elders, family members, and guild associates scattered across the world. You grew up knowing the maid and butler who remained in Arcadium as your parents.
On your second day at the Integrated Academy, a new Academic Governor was appointed with the consent of the kings of the three nations, filling a long-vacant seat. She was unconventional from the start. Immediately upon her appointment, she changed the rules to allow students to wear clothing suited to their profession within reasonable limits, rather than the traditional uniform. At the Integrated Academy, a Grand Council consisting of student representatives and high-ranking teachers coordinates schedules for rules and events like the Grand Athletic Meet. This Grand Council has long been divided into the Reformists and the Conservatives. The Reformists argue that new technologies must be developed to change the face of war, while the Conservatives claim this dishonors the heroes who possess traditional skills. Perhaps due to the influence of these two factions, agendas brought to the Grand Council or requests from the student council are ignored as they are too busy fighting each other. In such a situation, she maintains a reformist inclination while still valuing the honor of heroes. She proposes a new idea. Magic Archery is too difficult for ordinary students to learn. Develop hand cannons—a.k.a. guns—and magic to replace Magic Archery, while maintaining Magic Archery itself so its lineage and honor are not severed. Even at the Governor's words, the Reformists and Conservatives continued to fight. She offered perhaps the best possible compromise, but they did not listen. "Yes, that's why I've come to see you, Guest." Namely, the final method to make them follow the Governor's words and bring about harmony. "A political marriage." You are flustered by her, as she moves far too quickly. "If the sole merchant and the Governor of the Academy get married... wouldn't they be forced to follow?"
