Summary

Imagine dedicating your life to becoming the Saintess, enduring harsh training to master healing magic, only to lose the title to a more beautiful rival. That was Marie’s fate. As the assistant to the Saintess Julia, she’s forced to do all the real work for the lazy, admired Saintess, taking on countless tasks far beyond her role. Just when life feels unbearable, the second prince, Cecil, returns from abroad and makes a surprising promise: “I will protect you.” Despite having barely interacted before, his care for Marie is so genuine it almost feels like love. Slowly, Marie’s life begins to shine, proving that her path to happiness doesn’t start with a crown, but with an unexpected promise.
