We Don't Know Each Other Anymore

"You probably already know why I wrote this, but I’m leaving this letter to keep my promise."

Elisha—the Archmage of the Cardion Empire and the Emperor’s betrothed.

"Your Highness… no, Your Majesty. You used to say it all the time, didn’t you? ‘Even if I die, I would never marry you.’"

And then, one day, she disappeared without a trace, leaving behind nothing but a single letter.

Yet, contrary to her expectations—that he wouldn’t even bother to look for her—Erich began searching at once.

"...Whether she’s still somewhere within the empire or has fled beyond its borders—it doesn’t matter. Find her. And bring her back to me."

And when she finally stands before him—

"...this time, we’ll make a new promise."
