In our article introducing "The Story of the Tiamoon Empire - A Princess's Reincarnation Reversal Story Beginning from the Guillotine," which will begin airing in October, we introduced the main character, Princess Meer, her confidant maid Anne, and her wise aide Ludwig, but there are many more unique characters that we want to introduce to you about in this series. Princess Meer enrolls in St. Noel Academy at the age of 13, and there she meets characters who will have an impact on Meer's life. In this article, we would like to introduce some of the noteworthy characters.
My Lifelong Enemy: Shion Saul Sankland
Shion Saul Sankland is the first prince of the Sankland Kingdom, a great power rivaling the Tiermoon Empire. He has excellent grades and a first-rate swordsmanship. He has a gentle personality, a strong sense of justice, and, above all, a handsome man. He is the perfect prince often seen in stories, and is the object of admiration for female students. Princess Meer, in her previous life, was no exception, and wanted to become friends with Prince Shion. However, she was ignored because of her arrogant attitude, claiming, "I, the princess of the Tiermoon Empire, am your equal."
The Man Who Destroyed the Empire
So, why is Prince Shion her lifelong enemy? In her previous life, he cooperated with the leader of the revolutionary army, condemned Princess Meer, drove the Tiermoon Empire to ruin, and even witnessed Meer's execution. This time, Meer tried to avoid any involvement with Prince Shion, avoiding repeating her previous mistakes. However, Meer's "good luck" drew Prince Shion to her.
Another lifelong enemy: Tiona Rudolphon
Tiona Rudolphon is the daughter of an aristocrat from a remote farming region on the southern outskirts of the Tiermoon Empire. Just because she's a noble from such a remote area doesn't mean she's treated like an aristocrat, let alone a citizen of the empire. To prove herself, she worked tirelessly to enroll at St. Noel Academy.
The Saint Bullied by Meer
Why did Tiona become Meer's sworn enemy? Prince Sion ignored her and befriended her, while Meer bullied her relentlessly. "You're the daughter of a poor noble family in the Empire," he continued to say, driven solely by personal grudge. As a result, this became the driving force behind Tiona's rise to leadership of the revolutionary army, heralded as a saint, and, together with Prince Sion, overthrowing the Tiamoon Empire and executing Princess Meer. Like Prince Sion, Meer had intended to end her relationship with Tiona, but her "good luck" prevented her from doing so.
Abel Lemno is locked on by Meer
Abel Lemno is the second prince of the Kingdom of Lemno, a mid-ranking nation with a strong military. He's a kind-hearted and gentlemanly boy, but in the Kingdom of Lemno, where swordsmanship is highly valued, kindness is often looked down upon. He strives to become the best swordsman in line to the throne, but he compares himself to his older brother, the first prince, and Prince Shion, and gives up on his efforts.
Meer Threatens Abel's Destiny
Abel's love affair with a playboy soon becomes a hot topic. It's Princess Meer who awakens him. She forces him to accept the role of dance partner at the school's entrance ceremony party. When Abel declines, citing a lack of talent, Princess Meer tells him, "I chose you. There's no way you can beat Prince Shion or your brother. Meer, Luna, and Tiermoon guarantee it." Abel was touched by her words, but Meer's true intention was to invite Abel to help her in the event of a revolution, and to become the second prince to be her husband. Her actions, however, catapulted Abel's destiny in a favorable direction thanks to her "good luck."
The Academy's Saint: Rafina Orca Veruga
Rafina Orca Veruga is the eldest daughter of Duke Orléan, who rules the Principality of Saint Veruga, where Saint Noel Academy is located. Since enrolling, she has served as student council president at Saint Noel Academy, effectively ruling the school. However, she is not arrogant about her status and treats commoners and nobles equally. On the other hand, she is fastidious and values justice, and will mercilessly punish anyone who commits wrongdoing, regardless of their status. For this reason, she is known by those around her as a true saint.
Meer's Nemesis
Before her reincarnation, Meer had made every effort to become closer to Rafina, but she intentionally avoided her relationship with Meer, who acted as the imperial princess. Furthermore, when the revolution broke out, she supported Tiona and Prince Shion, and Meer's dislike of Rafina was so strong that it became traumatic for her. However, Meer's "good luck" was once again put to excellent use, and she deepened her relationship with Rafina regardless of Meer's wishes.
Prince Theon's Aide, "Keithwood"
Keithwood is Prince Theon's servant and accompanies him to St. Noel Academy. Originally a war orphan, he was adopted by Abram, the current King of the Kingdom of Sankland, and raised as his own son. Due to this background, despite being a servant, he sometimes acts frankly towards Prince Theon, with whom he grew up like a brother. He is a loyal and faithful servant to Prince Theon, but he is constantly overwhelmed by Princess Meer's affairs, causing him constant stress. Although he has a sarcastic side, he is fundamentally an honest young man and is forced to act for Princess Meer.
Tiona's Maid, Liora Lulu
Tiona Rudolphon's maid, Liora is a member of the Lulu tribe, who live in the Silent Forest, a forested area between the Rudolphon Count's territory and the Belman Viscount's territory. She has high physical abilities and is skilled with the bow, but is not very familiar with the official language. However, she shares a sisterly bond with Tiona. Liora also has a connection with Princess Meer, and in her previous life, she harbored a deep grudge against Meer. Be sure to tune in to the anime to see what happens this time as Meer activates her "good luck."
