Characters

[edit | edit source]
Elizabeth Leiston (エリザベート・レイストン, Erizabēto Reisuton)
A teen woman from a noble family, she was engaged to Haldoria's crown prince until he betrayed her. She forms an alliance with the Yutear Empire and starts a trading company there, with the ultimate aim of seeking revenge against her betrayers. While living in Yutear, she goes under the alias Ellie Leis. She has abilities called the Seven Grimoires, which she uses for her own purposes.After the betrayal she adopted a spirit named Alice as her daughter and now has no interest in getting married or in romance. Raised from childhood to be the next Queen Elizabeth, she was taught the importance of chastity; now, cast aside by the Kingdom of Haldoria, she remains a virgin—an inexperienced woman of the strictest moral fibre, burning with vengeance.
Mireille Katarina (ミレイ・カタリア, Mirei Kataria)
Elizabeth's maid, who remains loyal to her even after Friede breaks off their engagement. Mireille serves as Elizabeth's trusted partner.
Lucas Lebrick (ルーカス・レブリック, Rūkasu Reburikku)
An ambassador from the Yutear Empire, who helps Elizabeth gain asylum.
Tida (ティーダ, Tīda)
A nun who becomes involved in Elizabeth's business. Elizabeth finds it difficult to believe that she is a nun due to her personality.
Lunoa Carlton (ルノア・カールトン, Runoa Kāruton)
A girl who Elizabeth healed after she was hit by a carriage. She later becomes an apprentice at the company.
Friede (フリード, Furīdo)
Elizabeth's ex-fiance, who broke off their engagement after gaining an interest in another woman, Sylvia Lockit.
Sylvia Lockit
A noble woman who charms Friede. Elizabeth pushed her down the stairs, angering Friede and leading him to call off the engagement. She then becomes Friede's new fiancée.
