A freshman in high school who is accepted into an elite private academy in the outskirts of London, Elizabeth “Effy” Cynthia Jeffries is the spitting image of her great-great-grandmother Elizabeth Midford, the original fiancé of Earl Ciel Phantomhive.

Only she was driven, and he had delved into her virtue.
