I'm a Battle Saintess, After All!

[This story will go on reverse sale from Chapter 23 on March 16. There will be a 10,000-word update that day, so please be careful not to buy chapters you've already read. Thank you all for your support so far. I hope you'll continue to support me~] Long Kui is an ordinary wage earner who is suddenly summoned to another world one day. Another person is summoned with her: a young girl who looks fair and delicate, the complete opposite of Long Kui. She even looks like a child. After a brief silence, Long Kui is told that she's been "rejected." The reason? Her "appearance and personality don't match the image of a Saint." A man who clearly holds power tells her, speaking in what she understands to be rather poor foreign-world language: "Fire attribute, weak talent, ominous black hair and eyes, dark skin... Neither your appearance nor your awakened attribute meets our requirements." Long Kui (silently): Are you people serious? It's a world of swords and magic, and you're still going on about discrimination and stereotypes? No wonder this country needs outside help to save it (sweating yellow bean). Still, as a capable wage earner, Long Kui quickly adapts to her new life. After spending two weeks learning the basics of the language and wringing compensation out of them, she happily makes her escape. But she doesn't expect that simply running away won't be enough. When she awakens a dark-element talent for the second time, she's classified as a witch. Well, might as well go with the flow and join them. And you, old geezer who's about to become the former king, your throne will soon be mine. No objections, right? --She'll show him right now that a Saint can chop his head off too! - The witch has been asleep for a very long time. Her ominous black hair, golden slit pupils, inhuman scaly tail, and horns marked her as an outsider, and she was banished to the frontier. One day, after she wakes, she discovers a new arrival in the frontier, staring at her... tail with drool running down her chin. "Um... may I touch your tail?" Reader's notes: 1. When I adjusted the outline, I realized the blurb and plot didn't quite match, so I made a few changes to the blurb. The premise is still the same. 2. Now that everyone's joined the witches, I hope nobody expects the heroine and her companions to be paragons of virtue, lol. 3. Updates will be slow, basically following the rankings. 4. More notes may be added at any time. [========== Upcoming story blurb below ==========] Taming Beasts in My Dreams, No Romance ↓↓↓ Blurb below ↓↓↓ After transmigrating to a world of beast tamers, Lu Songlan discovers at her awakening ceremony that she hasn't awakened the talent to tame beasts. While all the other beast tamers confidently contract spirit beasts and set out on the glorious path of a beast tamer, she's unable to bond with any spirit beast. She becomes someone who can't connect with beasts at all, and even the weakest spirit beasts refuse to follow her. In this world ravaged by corruption, only powerful beast tamers can protect the spark of humanity. Her future seems to hold nothing but waiting in the shadow of despair for someone else to protect her. Until one day, she wakes from a dream to find a snow-white cub curled up in her arms. "A Dreambeast, born entirely from fantasy." The technician in charge of the examination is dumbfounded as they announce the result. And what's even more bizarre is that every night, she falls into strange and fantastical dreams, experiencing different landscapes. A bloody sea monster sings a dirge beneath the moonlight. Giant butterfly wings cleave through the sky, their sharp bony tails serving as blades to clear a path. Her shadow entwines with the fluffy tails of a nine-tailed fox. Lu Songlan and her spirit beasts travel through forests and towns in their dreams, searching for countless lost memories. Naturally, they also meet some reliable companions. But one day, when she sees souvenirs from her dreams in her backpack, Lu Songlan is dumbfounded. --Wait, you can actually bring things back just by dreaming!? In the year 1260 of the Beast-Taming Era, a pitch-black abyss swallows a town. When all the detectors fail, people discover to their astonishment that the girl who has long remained in her dreams can cross through the black corruption. She raises a shining lantern, with spirit beasts whose fur resembles the starry sky following behind her, their misty tails protecting her. From the deep sea to the forest, the spirit beasts once considered "fantasy species" are awakening along with her dreams. And then they fight by her side. [Reader's notes] 1. There are competitions and traveling, both in dreams and reality. This is a beast-taming story with a slice-of-life feel. 2. No romance, no love interests, just adorable everyday life with the spirit beasts. 3. I seriously broke down. I've revised the blurb countless times, but the premise is still the same. 4. Updates follow the rankings before the paid chapters begin, then six chapters a day. Theme: Live for yourself
