12: Banished? I’ll Happily Leave!
- Arisa’s POV
“Hehe, ufufufufu…! I did it! I knew I could do it! Well, I’m a princess, so it’s only natural!”
When Arisa awoke, she appeared to be in the hall of a castle from some fantasy story.
There was a large magic circle at her feet and in front of her stood a woman, dressed like a princess, and with blonde curls.
Huh? What’s with this woman? She’s dressed so sparkly. She stands out more than me, it pisses me off.
Arisa was immediately irritated by the glittering princess. In contrast, the princess’ eyes were sparkling.
“Listen carefully! You’re a saint… no, you’re the true saint who’ll judge that insolent fake saint and save this world!”
“I’m… the saint who’ll save this world?”
Hearing that, Arisa, who had been skeptical of the princess, lit up.
So… I’m the chosen one? My wish to live carefreely in another world has come true?! Yay! Lucky me!
“I’m Izarine, the princess of this kingdom, Fenzel. I’m the one who summoned you to this world. If you understand, do your utmost to thank and serve me!”
The Saint Summoning Ritual—it was the highest level of summoning magic that only the royal family could perform in this kingdom. Since it consumed an extraordinary amount of magical power, it wasn’t something that could be performed easily.
However, the princess secretly took the forbidden magic stone sealed in the treasure vault, and used it as a source of magic power for the ritual. Of course, she did it on her own accord, without telling anyone.
Although it was an unforgiveable act, the foolish princess felt no guilt and was simply happy at having been able to summon a saint. Arisa’s heart swelled with anticipation, thinking that she’d be able to live in luxury and glamor now on.
This woman is a bit arrogant and annoying, but well, the world needs the saint more than her. I’ll captivate the men of this world with my charm and make up some story about her abusing me!
Hence why Arisa decided to play the role of a pure and innocent maiden. She was simply behaving as she did when she deceived her ex-husband and Makiru, so it was a piece of cake.
“Understood, Your Highness. I’ll do my best as the saint.”
“Ufufu, how obedient! Yes, this is how a saint should be! You’re completely different from that cheeky fake saint!”
While smiling, Arisa let her imagination ran wild as she thought about what would happen next.
If there’s a princess, does that mean there’s a prince too? Wouldn’t it be nice to seduce a handsome prince and become queen? I’ll be set for life!
Suddenly, Arisa recalled something.
Huh? Now that I think about it, what happened to Makiru? I thought he came to this world with me? But he’s nowhere to be found…
The princess and Arisa were alone in the hall. Makai was nowhere to be seen.
Oh well! From now on, I’ll be pampered in this world as a saint and marry a handsome prince! Who cares about that guy?
So, both Arisa and the princess smiled in satisfaction.
They were still unaware of the tragic ruin that would ultimately befall them.

- Mia’s POV
“Saint, Her Highness the Princess has called for you. Please come to the hall immediately.”
The day after I used my power as a saint on the people of the capital, I was summoned to the hall by a servant. I had no choice but to go with Voldred.
“Ufufu, there you are, Fake Saint!”
In the hall, the princess, the prince, and everyone else who had been present when I was summoned had gathered. The princess stood amid them all. She seemed to be in an extremely good mood for some reason.
In that case, she’s probably going to run her mouth again.
“—Listen, False Saint! You were summoned by my brother as a saint, but you disobeyed the royal decree and even committed terrible acts of violence against me! We don’t need someone like you! I, Princess Izarine, thereby banish you from the royal castle—no, the royal capital!”
The princess said arrogantly. She must’ve gathered the prince and other knights specially to humiliate me in front of everyone. By the way, everyone looked extremely shocked. Did they not know about this?
However, I was well aware of her dissatisfaction with me. That said, even if I were banished, I was sure I could survive with my powers. I couldn’t help but think it might be a good opportunity for me.
“Okay. You’re annoying, so I was going to leave anyway.”
“What?!”
