In Soviet Petersburg shrouded in eternal fog, a secret chess game that has lasted for hundreds of years is coming to an end.
Offit Vieno, the owner of this castle who has lived for 305 years, is elegant and lazy, using eternal time as the stage. She sees everything as entertainment, including her housekeeper who always wants to keep her distance. Suvik Aelin stepped into the castle as an avenger, but in one hundred and thirty years of service, she sharpened her sharpness into absolute restraint, and boiled her hatred into unspeakable loyalty.
The master presses forward step by step, laying sweet traps with elegant arrogance; the butler defends every step of the way, building a wall of heart with cold reason. One is quietly waiting for redemption in provocation, and the other is quietly accumulating possessions in restraint.
