[Gender-bender + another world + lighthearted + Western fantasy]
A mob boss who once ruled the underworld woke up in the body of a frail, pure-hearted saintess in the Church.
Other saintesses devote themselves to ascetic discipline, receive the adoration of the masses, and work themselves to the bone.
Alicia, the saintess, slacks off, takes it easy, tears into the bishop, and fights squirrels for peanuts.
Everyone in the royal capital knows that Her Holiness the Saintess is aloof and pure, and only Cecilia, the captain of the knight order, is allowed near her.
Nobody knows that this knight captain, decisive and merciless on the battlefield, as cold as an iceberg, has practiced confessing her love to the saintess a hundred times in private. Every time she opens her mouth, her voice cracks, she dies of embarrassment, trips over her own feet, and flees in a panic.
At last, in an oak grove beneath the setting sun, Cecilia clutched her crumpled love letter and said with red-rimmed eyes, “Alicia, I love you. Not because you’re a saintess, but simply because you’re you.”
She thought she’d be rejected, but the girl gently wiped away her tears and intertwined their fingers. “Silly girl”
Is there a female lead, or is it a solo role?
I love this rhythm; it has a soothing effect.
It's incredibly good! The main character has a sharp tongue but a kind heart; he's very kind to everyone and also very intelligent. Overall, this book is truly excellent and a very enjoyable read.
Very beautiful and with a light rhythm
