When I woke up, I couldn’t recall anything. Apparently, I was the ‘Peerless Saint’, and although I had immense power, it was presently sealed. That barely mattered though… “…My husband is too awesome…!?” Before I lost my memory, I was a villain who had abused her power as the strongest saint to cause misdeeds. Oswald, a genius magician, said that we were married solely because he was the only one who could kill me. Thus, he was keeping an eye on me. “Then, if I were to help you, would you date me, Oswald?” “Hmm, if you truly could, I’ll hold your hand and we can go on a date—I get it, stay back, don’t hug me!!” I could no longer use my divine power as the saint and everyone around me despised me. Above all, my newly-married husband loathed me… I’m such a bad wife. For now, let’s keep the fact that I’ve lost my memory a secret. As compensation for my past evil deeds, I’d like to help my beloved husband as much as possible. …But I feel like I can still use divine power that should have been sealed for some reason?

Despite being a Count’s daughter, Risha always had dark circles under her eyes. In addition, her skin and hair were ragged, and she was skinny. The dress she wore didn’t match her figure at all. In comparison, the daughter of the woman who became the Count’s second wife had a lovely, beautiful face, even though one of her parents was a commoner. Unable to tell which of them had legitimate noble blood, Risha was ridiculed in social circles. Then one day, someone proposed to Risha. He was the Duke of Lindbeld, an exceptionally handsome, straight-laced man. The Duke didn’t want to marry, but got annoyed by the people around him who kept nagging him to do so. Moreover, he was tired of the lady who kept hounding him. He was looking for a young lady who would be willing to be his nominal wife, who would not interfere in his work or in his personal life.

“This is a contract marriage.” “Yes, thank you!” “…What?” Avril, a daughter who was hailed as a prodigy when she was young, was bullied for being ‘incompetent.’ For being a villainess, she’d be married to a lustful old duke in the place of her stepsister… However, what was waiting for her was a beautiful young man who was the exact opposite of the rumors. But of course, the way the surroundings treated Avril, whom they believed to be a villain, was unfortunate. Nevertheless, Avril, who was too accustomed to being oppressed, remained calm. She obediently demonstrated her insensitivity and abilities as a ‘villainess’, and transformed her surroundings into her ally. On the other hand, the duke quickly found out that Avril was neither incompetent nor villainous. “Avril, who dared to refer to you as ‘incompetent’ and as a ‘villain’? …I won’t forgive them.” “Uhm, that’s…?” This is a story about a heroine who lived at her own pace even if she was unloved by her family, and was cherished and happy in her newfound world.
