"This time, I'll take my life into my own hands."

Maricia, the daughter of a marquis, is shunned by her family because she can't use magic. Her fiance, Heinrich, was her sole source of support, but she discovers he's having an affair with her stepsister, Cannolina! The shock causes her memories of her previous life in another world as "The Shrouded Black Saintess" to resurface. Manipulated and discarded in this and her previous world, she tries to run away to a life for herself. However, Theodore, a mysterious, handsome man, suddenly appears before her. In dire straights, Maricia can't help but reach out and save him... What will happen to Maricia, who wants to live her life alone in peace, and Theodore, the man who wants to have her under a contractual engagement?!

    今世では幸せに
    This review contains spoilers. 前世は家族や婚約者との関係で苦しい思いをさせられてきました。今世ではマリーシャには絶対幸せになって欲しかった。セオドアが素敵でマリーシャをしあわせにしてほしい

    早くざまぁされてほしい
    This review contains spoilers. 二人とも不幸な出だしで、共通の敵が居るから協力していくのかな?王道っぽい雰囲気ですが、チートっぽい主人公のこれから先が楽しみです。

    主人公応援したい
    逆境にも負けず道を開いていこうとする主人公が素敵。目の前の倒れている人をほっとけない優しさも素敵。その優しさが結果幸せにつながるのかも。

What's wrong with introverts?!
I totally get how she feels! Sometimes I just want to grab a book and shut out the world. With a doting family, Maricia, has the luxury of enjoying what she truly loves, as she should. It follows a lot of tropes, but the relationship between the emperor, his spirit beast, and Maricia is so cute and endearing!
