Princess Sahar Serenity was not exactly a princess, but a Duchess. However, she was currently being exiled from the succession rights and could be stripped from her peerage.

Two days since Yoo Seodam arrived in this world, he had been freely walking around the residence of Duchess Serenity. The mansion, which only consisted of few guards, attendants and maids, was very desolate and was pretty much close to being abandoned.

Maybe it was natural. Because everyone who worked in the mansion were under the orders of the Emperor to monitor the ‘princess who lost all of her power’.

That’s right. Princess Sahar Serenity was hated by the emperor.

“Even though I still love you, Your Majesty the Emperor.”

Sahar laughed wryly. The pale moonlight reflected in her purple eyes. She placed her nose closer to the glass to enjoy the scent of red wine swirling inside it. 

“Bournegia wine glasses have a narrow cheek, so it's easy to smell the scent of the wine. Sometimes I get drunk by simply inhaling the scent.”

Princess Sahar slowly turned her head towards one corner behind her. There, she saw Yoo Seodam standing still in a neat uniform. She looked at him with eyes filled with pity.

“I’m sorry for you too.”

“Why is that?”

“You were also sent here by His Majesty to watch over me…. The fact that such a young knight like you was assigned to the Duchess Serenity actually means that your future is blocked. Well, it could be very enjoyable to watch a disgraced princess ending her own life.”

What she said would have been right if Yoo Seodam was like others who blabbered their mouth and swore at the Duchess Serenity.

“I think you have a misunderstanding, Your Highness.”

"What kind of misunderstanding?"

“I didn’t come here because of His Majesty the Emperor’s order. I come here by my own will, because I want to protect you, Your Highness.”

Princess Sahar stared into Yoo Seodam’s eyes and burst into laughter.

“That's such funny bullshit. If I was still the same old me, your neck would have been gone.”

“I'm curious about the old princess. Could you please tell me your story, Your Highness?”

Princess Sahar was not the protagonist. Her rival Bianca was the protagonist. Yoo Seodam thought that a lot must have happened before he came here. He had to know what the hell had happened and how she became like this.

"Okay. I’m tired of talking to the wall anyway. I will tell you my story.”

With her purple eyes twinkling, Princess Sahar started.

“Around 1 year ago, I turned back the time.”

* * *

“Saintess-nim. You look so beautiful today.”

“Really? I think so too.”

Looking at myself in the mirror, I couldn’t get tired of it..

The woman in the mirror was me and not me at the same time. The truth is, I remember my previous life. I even remember the moment when I got hit by the truck while I was reading my favorite web novel ‘The Evil Woman Who Turn Back Time’.

Eugh… it was a terrible experience I don't want to go through ever again.

Anyway. That’s how I died, and reincarnated to a pretty woman in the mirror ‘Bianca’.

…..Unfortunately, I am not the protagonist of this world.

This world was a world inside the novel ‘Evil woman who turns back time’ that I was holding right before my death.

Yes, the protagonist of this world was ‘Sahar Serenity’. She was killed because of Saintess Bianca’s evil trick on her first life, she also lost her loved ones and her powers. But then, the Goddess of Time and Season mistook Princess Sahar as someone else, and reincarnated her to the past.

After many twists and turns, Princess Sahar succeeds in killing Saintess Bianca and reclaims her love, wealth, and honor using her knowledge of the future!

It must have been a cool cider… If I was not reincarnated as Saintess Bianca!!

“Saintess? Are you okay?"

"Huh? Yes. I’m okay."

Oops, I was squeezing my hair without even knowing. As the fine hair was scattered, the priestesses hurriedly combed it.

The name of the priestess on my left was Yayan, the one in my right was Koyan. Both of them were the closest priestess to Saint Bianca. Both also had a pitiful and dark future awaiting them. Both of them could not violate Bianca’s order, and after committing numerous evil deeds, they would eventually be caught by Princess Sahar, their limbs would be amputated and they would be thrown out to the streets.

The same future is also waiting for me. Probably, even if I stay still like this, I would somehow get caught by Princess Sahar and sentenced because of numerous abuse and blasphemy I committed, and eventually I would die within a year.

“Fyuuuhhh….”

The moment I sighed heavily.. 

Clannkk!!! 

I heard the sound of glass shattering right behind me. I turned my head in shock and saw one of the priestesses trembling.

Ah, that’s the refreshing ‘yogurt fruit parfait’ right?

After mixing lemon and banana, and spreading the strawberry under the ice cream, the fascinating taste of the strawberry was the only happiness I could feel here….

What’s wrong with her? Why is that child shivering like that?

“I’m s-s-s-s-sorry Saintess-nim! I committed a grave sin!”

The priestess who dropped the parfait suddenly knelt and slammed her head to the floor.

Ah, now I understand! The original Bianca was quite feisty and was famous for her swear words. The parfait was definitely a waste, but I am not the original Bianca, so…

"It’s okay. Did you say your name is… Silbinis?”

“Yes, yes! That's right!"

“We can just make another parfait. Don't be too scared like that. I'll clean it up here, so go back. Next time, you can make a more delicious parfait for me.”

“Oh, ah…! Thank you, thank you so much, Saintess-nim..!”

As she cried, she got up from the floor and went back while being supported by other priestesses. By the way, I turned my head because I felt a stinging gaze behind my head. I could see Yayan and Koyan were looking at me as if they were looking at a new washing machine with Q-rating quality assurance.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Oh, no. Saintess-nim is so kind.”

“Fyuuhh, is that so?”

Well, it would be nice if I made an ally too. Thinking so, I looked at the mirror again, and a woman who stood out even more than me came into my sight.

Huh… Did she say her name was Aracelli? I remembered black hair being so rare here. Since I've never heard of such a name in the original novel, she’s probably an extra that was described as ‘a lovable priestess’.

Anyway, what to do in the future?

Perhaps even now, Princess Sahar was busy laying a foundation based on her future knowledge in order to get her revenge to the Saintess. Ugh, how can I die like that, even after reincarnating!

I can't let that happen, wouldn’t it be better to run away to the countryside? I have a divine power anyway, so even if I worked as a masseuse or therapist in moderation, I would have a great income. Good. Now that I know what to do, I had to do it right away.

At that time, I heard a knocking sound from the door. From the outside a warm voice with a low-pitch tone rang.

-Bianca. Are you inside?

Oh no! My heart will melt just by hearing that voice…No, that's not it!

The owner of that voice was the male lead, the Pope, Cain! 

Oh my god, there's nothing good about being connected with the male lead…!

But that doesn't mean I could turn him away, so I had no choice but to let him in.

When he entered his room, his blue hair and gray eyes mesmerized me, it was as if the lights from all over the world were focused solely on him. On top of that, he’s a nice person too. What did he eat to grow up to be so beautiful? (T/N: Yes, beautiful, not handsome)

“Bianca. What's wrong?"

“Uh, um. no! It’s nothing."

"Is that so? Thank God, that’s a relief. I heard that you’ve been looking for fruit parfait lately…”

I’m too ashamed I want to hide. No, let's just hide!

“…..I read it in a book, it seems like women eats a lot of sweet food when they are stressed out. So, I was a little worried….”

Unbelievable….. Does a man like you really need to be sweet too? I’ve become more ashamed of myself because I think badly of you!!

“No, no. I just eat it a lot these days because it's delicious!”

"I'm glad."

He smiled refreshingly as if he was really fortunate, but at the same time his slender eye line was bent and my heart broke at the same time.

“Bianca. I'm going to visit the pilgrimage site of the Republic of Maoliden. Would you like to go with me?”

“O…of course!”

Oops, I answered without knowing. It shouldn’t be like this!

Think about it, wasn’t the ‘incident' happened around this time?

‘The Republic of Maoliden. Republic of Maoliden…. Ah!'

I remembered it. The assassination of well-known people in the Republic of Maoliden. At the time, quite a few people were killed and injured, and even the male lead, Pope Cain was seriously injured. However, thanks to Princess Sahar’s interference, who knew all of this incident in advance, the event was avoided and Pope Cain fell in love with her.

“Heummm…..”

I was thinking quietly, while looking at Pope Cain calmly.

“Uh, Cain-nim. I have something to say….”

* * *

“A year ago, on that day. It was the start.”

Princess Sahar told Seodam her story quietly. It was like she was narrating someone else's story in a ridiculous way. That was why Yoo Seodam felt like his chest was crushed after hearing her story.

“I knew in advance what was going to happen that day. So, in order to save Pope Cain, I wield a sword and tried to kill all the assassins on the scene.”

However, the moment Princess Sahar confronted the assassins. Saintess Bianca suddenly appeared and shouted.

‘Princess Sahar! What are you doing!! Why, why did you do this!’

‘…No, I’m trying to stop them-’

Princess Sahar tried to explain the situation, but to no avail. Even Pope Cain, who appeared right after Saintess Bianca, was also looking at her with an incredulous expression.

‘Princess Sahar Serenity…….’

The ever so sweet Pope Cain was looking at her with a cold expression she had never seen before. Then, he said as if he was sincerely disappointed.

‘As the Child of Goddess of Seasons and Time, aren’t you embarrassed about what you do?'

‘I want to stop this case-‘

‘Can I ask how will you stop it? How did you even know in advance? I wouldn't have known if Bianca hadn't reminded me of something strange. What is the reason you were able to find out more about this case faster than me, the Pope?'

Of course, she couldn’t answer. She couldn’t tell them that she was a regressor, and she knew the future in advance. In the first place, would they believe it if she told them?

“……That day, I was deprived of all my abilities and status as ‘Child of God'. It was funny, I tried to correct the future for the sake of God and Pope Cain, but everything went wrong from the very start.”

Also, Princess Sahar said they were very lucky that there were no victims thanks to the ‘unknown female wizard’ who appeared on the scene and used her magic to eradicate the enemy.

‘Wait, a female wizard?'

Yoo Seodam thought.

But Princess Sahar's miserable biography continued.

She has done her best to change the future. To save everyone, to get her own things back with minimal losses, she ran wild and moved her feet fast.

However, it was to no avail.

Saintess Bianca incited the Emperor by saying, “Something is strange, Princess Sahar was always the cause of the incident.” And when Saintess Bianca said to the world's best swordsman “Oppa, I'm scared to go there”, he would immediately rise to rescue her. Everything that Princess Sahar had planned for the future vanished in vain.

She went through all sorts of humiliation by being framed and despised.

Finally, even her beloved Emperor turned his back on her.

All of that happened in the span of one year.

“Well, let’s just say that is my destiny… Perhaps God wants to tell me that fate cannot be changed. Even if I live my life again.”

Yoo Seodam stared at the face of Princess Sahar who spoke bitterly.

‘Humm…….’

In his mind, it was such an interesting development. A fight between a regressor and a transmigator. However, in this case, it seemed that Saintess Bianca, the protagonist, who received the ‘protagonist correction’ was overwhelmingly dominant.

‘Thinking about it, Saintess Bianca resembles me a lot…'

After thinking about it for a long time, Yoo Seodam finally came to a conclusion.

‘Um, it seems like this request won’t be easy.'

The situation was so bleak. Of course, it was not necessary for him to save Princess Sahar, if he went to the temple, there could be a way to kill the Saintess.

The Saintess level is 99. Most of her ability was focused on defense and healing, so her actual combat power is no different than normal people. In other words, if Yoo Seodam decided to fight her, he would win. 

But, would it be okay?

Yoo Seodam still doesn't know what Saintess Bianca's ‘probability’ would do if he killed her. She might be reincarnated as soon as she was killed looking at the fact that she was the only Saintess of the Goddess of Time and Season, Kader.

‘I really hit a dead end.'

After thinking about it for a long time, Yoo Seodam decided to give up for now and think about the ‘unknown female wizard’ that was bothering him. From what Yoo Seodam could infer from Princess Sahar’s story, the wizard always appeared like a wind whenever an accident occurs. And she would quickly disappear after reducing the number of victims as much as possible. There were also a lot of people looking for her in the empire.

Questions such as ‘who is she?’ ‘where did she come from?’ and ‘how did she use such great magic?’ could be heard everywhere in the empire. Even one of the ‘Male lead’, The Tower master, was said to be looking for her.

However, Yoo Seodam could roughly guess who the unknown wizard was.

She was a girl who had succeeded in finding him beyond time and space and managed to come here a year earlier compared to him.

‘It’s you huh? Aracelli.’

Yoo Seodam's main objective for now was to meet her.
