Description
Gizelotte Orteus is the queen consort to King Jilk Orteus and the biological mother of Haruto Zenfis and Raias Orteas. Known by the epithet the Lightning Princess or Flash Princess, she was once a member of the royal demon lord subjugation squad. Her marriage to the king was a direct result of her celebrated feat of single-handedly defeating the demon lord, a deed that earned her great favor and prestige within the kingdom. She has maroon hair, pink eyes, and hair that reaches past her hips.

Gizelotte is defined by a profoundly egocentric and ambitious personality. Her primary motivation is the preservation and expansion of her own power, specifically her status as queen. This self-interest eclipses all other considerations, including the welfare of her own children. When her firstborn son, Haruto, was assessed and believed to have a dangerously low magic level, she did not hesitate to declare him a disgrace to the royal family and made the swift decision to abandon him. Her ambitions did not stop with securing the throne for her other son, Raias, whom she initially planned to control as a puppet king. She ultimately schemed to eliminate all other members of the royal family, including Raias, to claim the crown for herself. Her cruelty is not limited to her immediate family; she was also willing to target Charlotte Zenfis, an innocent young child, purely because she perceived her as a potential threat to her position as queen.

Within the story, Gizelotte serves as a primary antagonist and the source of deep personal conflict for the protagonist, Haruto. Her abandonment of him as an infant is the foundational act of cruelty that shapes his early life and fuels his desire for retribution. Her role escalates when her plot against Charlotte provokes Haruto’s direct intervention. In a decisive act of vengeance, he confronts her under his alter ego, Shiva, and forces her to wear a magical collar that is designed to sever her head at his will. This collar, which resembles a slave’s accessory, serves as a constant, visible humiliation and effectively confines her to the palace, as she can no longer appear in public without losing face. Rumors spread throughout the kingdom that she had accidentally donned a collar she could not remove.

Her key relationships are defined by manipulation and conflict. Her relationship with her son Haruto is one of mutual hatred; she views him as a discarded mistake, while he views her as a target for his revenge. Her relationship with her other children, Raias and Marianne, is not one of maternal affection but of coercion. After being collared, she threatens them to extract information about the mysterious Black Warrior, demonstrating that she views her offspring only as tools for her own schemes. Her fragile mental state becomes evident during this time; on one occasion, she attempted to strangle her own daughter, Marianne, for the perceived slight of glancing at her humiliating collar.

Gizelotte shows little to no positive development, remaining a vindictive and power-hungry figure. Her trajectory is one of a downfall, as her machinations directly lead to her being subjugated and humiliated by the son she abandoned. Her notable abilities, which earned her the title of Lightning Princess, are significant. She was a powerful warrior capable of single-handedly defeating a demon lord. However, these abilities are entirely overshadowed by Haruto’s overwhelming power, rendering her helpless against his retaliation and forcing her into a state of submissive captivity.
