Please Grant Me a Glorious Regret

“I will serve as a replacement for Lady Daton.”

“…What did you just say?”

“I said I will take Lady Daton’s place. I will go to the capital with you.”

I made a deal with a man who couldn’t forget his lover, under the pretense of paying off a debt.

Of my own accord, I stepped into his trap.

I never knew that would be my downfall.

The more I lived day by day, the stranger it felt.

Why do she and I both paint the same pictures?

Why do we both fear water so much?

Is it truly a coincidence that we, two different people, are so similar?

If it is a coincidence,

Who does he truly love?

Who exactly is this “Pheria” he speaks of?

That’s why I decided to leave him.

To understand what his dreadful puppet game was for.
