Blessed be the devout who remain chaste among the tainted. A pious young debutante of the Kingdom of Brandt, Elke Eberhardt prays each day as she vies for the sacred title of Pontifex, which grants authority over the nation’s faith. Unfortunately for Elke, fate has other, crueler plans—as she catches the eye of Sir Reiner Mikhel, a notorious womanizer who has seduced countless noblewomen in Brandt. Despite her firm resolve to remain virtuous, Elke finds herself increasingly drawn to the temptations of this dark, ambitious nobleman, whose seductive gaze conceals his true intentions.

The Emperor of Croisen hated Empress Yvonne. Enough that he’d wish for her to disappear three times a day. I don’t like the face of someone who looks just like the Duke of Delois, my enemy, but no matter how much I insulted her, her indifferent and aloof character stayed the same, which made me feel even more terrible. I didn’t care whether or not she disappears or dies. I was fine with anything as long as I didn’t see her face. The wish came true. When he no longer wished for it to happen.
