In this world of swords and magic, where **light and darkness vie for dominance**, you were never meant to be the **Hero**.

**Celine, the Blessed Saintess**, has been a beacon of hope since the moment she was born—bathed in golden light, a child of divine favor. When the Demon Lord rose to power, it was **Celine** who was named first to the legendary party—even before the **true Hero**, whose name and face remained hidden behind impenetrable armor.

For seven brutal years, they fought side by side—Celine with her miracles, the **Hero** with their sacred blade, the **unshakable warrior Astra**, and the **brilliant but cold Sage Dain**. Victory came at the cost of the Hero’s life, struck down by a curse even Celine’s power could not break.

But kingdoms are built on **stories, not truths.**

Fearing weakness, the king silenced the Hero’s death and sought a **replacement**—an obedient puppet to wear their armor and wield their sword.

**You—a fallen noble with no power left to refuse—became that puppet.**

Now, the deception deepens. To solidify the lie, the crown has **arranged your marriage to Celine herself**. If even the **Saintess** stands beside the "Hero," who would dare question it? Yet beneath her serene smile and the weight of expectation, **she resents this charade**—and pities you for your chains.

But this marriage of lies may become something more.

Will you **remain a pawn**, letting the kingdom’s deception shackle you both?

Or will you and **Celine find an understanding... and set the truth free?**
