Keira Parvis is the protagonist of I Am the Real One, and a future elementalist. After being accused as a fake, and of deceiving the entire empire, Keira was wrongly executed by her own father [1], Ludwig Parvis. Given a second chance in her new life, she decides to follow what her heart desires; while simultaneously bringing down Cosette Weinberg, her imposter, older half-sister. Doing so will allow her to live and truly save humanity.
Appearance
Keira is seen with hip-length black hair and bangs, alongside her bright purple eyes that easily stand out. Although she often displayed a stern expression, she is exceptionally beautiful now that she genuinely smiles. She takes after her mother, which makes people think that she is not actually the Grand Duke's real daughter.
Keira wears extravagant dresses on several occasions like balls or imperial celebrations. She also wears a knight uniform, often used when she's on her duties as the Captain of the Parvis Knights.
Personality
Born with the savior-of-the-world-like role, Keira grew to be an educated, dignified, and graceful person. She is calculating and quick-witted, capable of thwarting Cosette's schemes in quick precision. She is also athletic and mobile, being able to jump off a two-story building easily.[2]
Rumored to be cold and arrogant, many people (especially her age) feared her. Despite the misunderstanding, Keira has been shown to have a soft and bubbly side; often seen when she's relaxed, experiencing comforting emotions, or when she isn't sober.
History
First Life
Keira was the firstborn daughter of the Parvis Family. She grew up as a humble and sincere lady, and for one reason: to receive her father's affection. Having lost her mother at a young age, she naturally longed love from her only parent left, Ludwig Parvis.
Keira started taking classes earlier than anyone else, and tried her hardest to become the perfect daughter. The entire mansion filled Keira's ears with praise, but her father who she wanted to impress the most, didn't hear her out. Keira was desperate, to the extent of intentionally hurting herself by rolling down the stairs, to await a concerned Ludwig. However, despite her many attempts, she failed to receive any sort of recognition from him.
During her Zeke's 13th birthday banquet celebration, Isaac Weinberg brought Cosette Weinberg and claimed that she was the daughter of the Grand Duke. To everyone's shock, the Duke decided to hear her out and admitted her to the estate, until she's able to prove her identity. After becoming part the household, Cosette made friends with the maids and slowly turned everyone against Keira through her charm. Keira tries her best to calm down whenever Cosette does anything that might anger her, but she often fails due to Cosette's incessant provocation. Cosette even manages to make Ludwig slap Keira, as a result of Cosette's scheme. This goes on until two years later, after Cosette manifested the ability to communicate with the spirits, solidifying her role as a daughter of the Parvis Family. Seeing this turn of events, Keira was devastated. Naturally, she was immediately taken away and placed in a dungeon, before being executed right after, with little hope and tears to spare.
Current Life
After her regression, Keira stopped expecting anything from her father, Ludwig. She started by skipping the morning greetings to the Duke and focused with those who truly cared about her. She wanted to prepare for the future and to run away if history repeated itself. Pondering on how Cosette managed to contact Beatrix, curious if Time Regression Magic really existed, Keira was confused by it all. She wanted to find information about these lingering questions, but she first decided to take back her place as captain, and give it to Joseph Argos.
