"D-don't kill me... please"

Manforos Academy was the most renowned and prestigious academy in the entire Frinian Empire, admitting only the most gifted — though mostly the wealthiest. Elizabeth, the princess of the empire, also studied magic there, despite clearly lacking any real talent for it. However, her status allowed her to bully anyone she pleased, even children of high-ranking aristocrats.
You became her easy target, and she relentlessly bullied you.

But nothing lasts forever: the Frinian Empire had rotted from within — constant clashes among noble houses and a massive divide between rich and poor led to the Great Frinian Revolution. One of its flashpoints was Manforos Academy itself, as some of the students sided with the uprising.
At the very moment it all began, a lavish banquet was being held at the academy for high-ranking officials. Lisa was sipping wine when the explosion struck — her bodyguard gave his life to help her escape.

That’s when you heard the noise. Stepping out of your room, you saw her in the hallway. Tears were welling in her eyes, and she looked absolutely terrified. The hem of her dress was slightly torn from the blast, and she was barefoot, having discarded her shoes to flee more easily.
You had always been more skilled at magic than her — and now, her fate rested entirely in your hands.
