Time-limited Saintess, You’ve Been Caught by the Tyrant Once Again

Ellin had a blank expression on her face.

Uncomfortable…

Her own presence was now offensive to Maynard. She could not believe he would say those words from his mouth. Ellin was shocked. It was because he was a warm knight who always protected and served her sincerely.

“Can’t you even hide the emotions on your face?”

“….”

“As Angelia, you’re more than lacking.”

The icy gaze gave her a cold-hearted appraisal. Ellin bit her lip.
 

“The reason why you couldn’t hide your feelings is because the Saint is so honest. I think that’s her strength.”

Maynard’s warm voice echoed in his ears.

He had said that when she wept after hearing the scornful words from others when her feelings were exposed. That blunt yet kind consolation was something that Ellin would never forget, even before her death. However, now…

“I’ll correct it, sir.”

The expression on Ellin’s face disappeared. Maynard, who saw it, carefully observed the change in her expression.

“I should get going now.”

Leaving Maynard behind, she was holding an unfamiliar feeling of hollowness.

‘Sir Maynard, you were so warm because I was the Saint…’

As she thought that, Ellin grabbed her chest. Still, she could not blame Maynard because it was her who chose this path.

‘Maybe, this way is better.’

In her first life, he committed suicide not long before her death. Maynard, the knight guarding her, could not accept the fact that Saint had to die.

To be precise, he could not accept the fact that the Saint had to die and he could not do anything about it. In the end, he believed that it was his fault for not being able to protect her and decided to commit suicide by stabbing himself in the heart with his sword, saying that she would go to God’s arms first and protect her.

Yes, his heart was sincere.

‘…Let’s not be greedy.’

Ellin struggled to pull herself together.

‘Is Maynard not alive now?’

Ellin smiled, suppressing her bitter feelings.

“Commander, what’s wrong with you?”

At Paladin Lennon’s words, Maynard asked back.

“What do you mean?”

“Did that girl make a big mistake? It’s not like the Commander—”

“Not like me? Are you saying that I acted too emotionally?”

“Oh, no. I apologize!”

When Lennon hurriedly apologized, Maynard sighed before opening his mouth again, “Yeah, maybe I’m being emotional, but she’s annoying.”

“Did she offend you? What do you mean? ”

“Everything.”

It was strange from the first time they met. The face that clouded up with happiness and goodwill occasionally whenever she looked at him. The strangeness was different from how others saw him. For some reason, it was foreign and irritating.

Strangely, as he thought so, the uncomfortable feeling was piercing him in the chest.

“…I don’t want to see her face for a long time.”

Maynard frowned and muttered.

‘Did she make any mistake?’

Meanwhile, Lennon frowned and glanced at him.

A blunt knight who does not usually show his emotions suddenly hates a commoner woman. His commander was not someone who cared about status…Why was he like this?

Lennon tilted his head.

“The Saint has finally begun to manifest her divine powers…!”

Hearing the priests were bustling from the morning, Ellin was startled.

…Liliana began to unleash her divine powers?

The next moment, she hurriedly ran out of the prayer room and quickly ran towards where the priests were at.

“The turbid water is being purified.”

Liliana, dressed in pure white, dipped her hand in the dirty water and it became clean. She then spread a beautiful smile and placed her hand on the soft soil.

Flowers started to bloom the next moment.

“Oh, my—!”

Angelias and the priests exclaimed in admiration.

As they all stared at her in amazement, Liliana looked back at everyone with her triumphant expression. That smile was full of pride that could not be hidden. Subsequently, when she raised her hand, butterflies began to fly.

She was startled. Liliana was obviously using divine power. If so, does that mean she was the real Saint? It was very perplexing.

“Ellin.”

Ellin glanced back at her at the voice calling her. It was Erich.

He approached her with her soft smile.

“Are you here to see the divine power of the Saint?”

“Ah, yes.”

“This… Sir Maynard is coming this way. Hide behind me, so you don’t get caught.”

At that, Ellin was startled and hid behind his back as he said.

“It’s a joke. Sir Maynard must be on his way now.”

“High Priest!”

Erich burst into laughter at her words. His voice was always pleasant to hear.

“I’m really glad that the Saint has demonstrated her divine power.”

“Yes, that’s a good thing.”

“But, is it a good thing?”

“Yes…?”

Instead of answering her, she could see that his gaze directed at Liliana was filled with apprehension.

“High Priest?”

“Oh, no. Of course, that’s a good thing. Before the Emperor visited, the Saint had already exerted her divine powers.”

“Yes…”

Ellin’s heart raced at her words, ‘Emperor.’

When the saint was found, the Emperor visited the temple to celebrate. So, she knew that Arkan would be here soon.

When she was fifteen — when she became a saint, he was only a prince. Arkan’s father, the Emperor at the time, led the Princes to visit the shrine to receive the greeting of the Saint. It was then that Ellin met him for the first time.

“…What kind of person is His Majesty?”

At her question, Erich smiled.

“He’s a very scary person. He’s even scarier than Sir Maynard, so he might hold onto you and not let you go.”

“…I’m not a little child, High Priest.”

“Huhu, I’m just saying.”

Erich laughed softly.

He seemed to be laughing a lot every time he saw her.

“As Ellin knows, he’s the one who exterminated his entire family and ascended to the throne. You, who aren’t familiar with etiquette, should not make a mistake, so you shouldn’t wander around like this on that day.”

“Yes.”

“Of course. You’re not a child, so I’m not worried.”
