Description
Aurèle endured childhood abandonment after her mother relinquished her to the streets while living lavishly. This forged a bitter resentment toward the wealthy, specifically targeting Eriko due to Eriko's privileged upbringing and loving family. Aurèle perceived Eriko as benefiting from unearned advantages and assumed her idol career stemmed from boredom with wealth.

A specific connection existed with Yuusuke Tamura, Eriko's father, who showed Aurèle genuine kindness before her fame, contrasting her general disdain. Later, Kosuke, Eriko's uncle, was revealed as Aurèle's biological father. Kosuke had falsely claimed Yuusuke was her abandoning father, fueling Aurèle's animosity toward Eriko. Discovering Kosuke's true paternity and deceit clarified their familial tie, making Aurèle and Eriko cousins.

Aurèle debuted as a confident, established performer, immediately establishing a rivalry with newcomer Eriko. Her early behavior was dismissive and harsh, including publicly mocking Eriko over a staged romance and questioning her idol motivations, significantly disrupting Eriko's performance. Their conflict escalated physically when Aurèle twice slapped Eriko during confrontations fueled by her parentage turmoil. The second slap prompted Eriko's unexpected retaliation and Aurèle's shock when Eriko then offered herself for another blow.

Despite her antagonism, Aurèle demonstrated underlying principles by intervening to shove Eriko from a falling stage light's path. Following Eriko's defensive slap and self-sacrificing gesture, Aurèle's perspective began shifting. A pivotal moment occurred when she displayed genuine concern, physically supporting Eriko after an injury. This marked the start of Aurèle's transition from an isolated rival toward recognizing Eriko's inherent kindness and vulnerability.

Aurèle's arc traces a journey from resentment and rivalry toward mutual respect and kinship. She reconciles a traumatic past defined by parental absence and manipulation with the possibility of trust. The evolution of her relationship with Eriko, moving from targeted hostility to protective concern, forms a central aspect of her development.
