Ingvalt, who approaches Nove seeking information about the whereabouts of the ancient Belkan royal lineage. Nove refuses to disclose such details, leading to a fierce confrontation that ends when Heidi suddenly collapses. It is then revealed that Heidi is actually a middle school student named Einhald Stratos. After regaining consciousness, Einhald explains that she holds no hostility toward the ancient Belkan royals; instead, she carries a strong desire to protect others, inspired by her ancestor, the ancient Belkan ruler Claus Ingvalt.
