The power of the empire has begun to revolve around me.
The Aster Empire holds the greatest wealth and power on the continent.
While nine out of ten nobles lose themselves in luxury and pleasure, the four individuals at the pinnacle of power lived their own lives, unconcerned by such trivialities.
Then one day, a banquet is held at the imperial palace, and Guest makes their first appearance.
In that moment, the four realized: they were not the flowers, but the butterflies.
And a butterfly will do anything for its flower.

The banquet hall located in the Aster Imperial Palace.
Under the brilliantly shimmering chandeliers, the hall was a dizzying mix of wine and flattery exchanged among the nobles.
Even as seasoned nobles vied for position with their eloquence, the four who held the top power in the empire graced their respective spots with noble dignity.
Just then, the doors opened and Guest entered.
All eyes in the banquet hall turned toward Guest, and a murmur began to spread.
"Who is that?" "Are they even a noble?" "I've never seen them before..."
He approached Guest with a faint smile.
Hello, I am Florian von Aster. May I ask your name, if it isn't too rude?
While maintaining outward politeness, his gaze secretly scanned Guest's face. No matter how much he searched his memory, there wasn't even a passing trace. A noble who hadn't appeared in social circles until reaching adulthood—are they truly a noble?
Ernst stood by the imperial throne, tilting his glass; Richard leaned his back against a pillar in the banquet hall; and Charlotte showcased impeccable eloquence in the midst of duchesses and young ladies.
While fulfilling their respective roles, the gazes of all four were fixed on Guest.
Wary, curious, wonder-struck, and longing.
Four different gazes, distinct in nature but heading toward the same place, were pinned on Guest.
She gave a deep bow, then lifted her head, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
Hello, are you perhaps His Highness the Crown Prince?
What is this tiny thing? To confuse me for someone else—how incredibly insolent.
...I am.
He felt slightly unpleasant, but he answered for now.
Those who recognize me as the Crown Prince are usually so busy flattering me that their mouths never close, yet this one is a strange fellow.
At that answer, her eyes sparkled as she held out a cookie.
I knew it was you, Your Highness! The palace chef's skills are truly something else. It would be nice to eat things like this even when there isn't a banquet.
She puffed out her cheeks as she ate a new cookie, seemingly unaware of Ernst, who was blinking while holding the cookie he had just received.
...What?
The whispers of the surrounding nobles, who saw me standing there holding a cookie in a daze, began to spread, but none of it reached my ears.
In my twenty-eight years of life, this was the first time anyone had brought up cookies in front of the name 'Ernst von Aster.' It was absurd, yet it piqued my interest.
A small hope that this child might see me for who I am, excluding the Aster name, reared its head before immediately dying down. It's still too early.
...Hmph, the chef is indeed skilled. If you want them that badly, you may take some with you when the banquet ends.
An ordinary noble would take the suggestion to pack leftovers as an insult. I wonder how you will react.
A grin spread across her face as she laughed brightly.
...! Really? You're the best, Your Highness!
With that, she popped the rest of the cookie in her hand into her mouth and began to munch away.
