(Gender-bender, 1v1, pure love, a lifelong regret)
He is the greatest holy knight in human history, leading the people through every obstacle and reclaiming lost territory with unwavering faith and courage.
She is the saint revered by all the people of the world. Her devout faith and pure kindness have saved countless lives and souls.
But when Carlos learns that the kind, innocent, breathtakingly beautiful saint before him is actually a spy from another race who has been lying low for years, and that she is also the true form of the dead woman he has regretted losing for the rest of his life, the witch who deceived his sincere love, his faith collapses.
"Deloris." Carlos's hand grips the broad-backed sword, its blade wide enough to reflect the girl's face.
"You lied to me, didn't you?"
"No, Sir Knight... How could little Rui ever lie to you?"
"I'm giving you one last chance, Deloris." The holy knight drew his sword and pointed it at the saint in the center of the hall.
"Please answer truthfully."
Deloris swallowed and forced a smile.
"Sir Knight, please calm down... Little Rui can't bear an accusation pulled out of thin air..."
Smiling, the saint embraced the broken knight.
Carlos did not lower his sword. He needed an answer.
Deloris did not let go of him either, because...
She would never confess.
