Walking along familiar paths, she soon arrived at a place she hadn’t visited in a long time.
‘This place feels strange now.’
After that prophecy, the temple’s celebratory banquets always centered around Anetha, excluding her.
Trying to ease her tension, Hestia took a light breath and then entered the room.
“Hestia the Saint?”
The priests and clergy began to rise awkwardly from their seats.
The only one who did not stand was Anetha.
Hestia concealed her feelings with a light smile.
“Good. I’m not too late.”
The chief priest Boswa came forward to escort Hestia to the head table.
“I heard you were not well, Saint Hestia.”
She smoothly lifted her lips in response.
“That’s true, but it’s Anetha the Saint’s celebration. I thought it proper to at least show my face for a moment.”
Boswa nodded in approval.
“As always, you are considerate.”
“Don’t mention it.”
“Please, this way.”
Hestia’s seat was directly opposite Anetha’s.
Anetha, noticing Hestia, clapped her hands in delight and greeted her warmly.
“I was saddened, thinking I wouldn’t see you! I even worried you might dislike me!”
It was a subtly accusatory statement.
‘Nasia must have conveyed that I wasn’t feeling well.’
Hestia inwardly chuckled.
In her past life, she might have been silent, but now, she wasn’t inclined to let Anetha speak as she pleased.
She looked at Anetha with a smile on her lips.
“I came because I thought you might say that.”
“……What?”
Anetha’s eyes wavered.
Hestia watched Anetha’s reaction and deliberately widened her eyes a half-beat later.
“It’s Saint Anetha’s celebration. Even though I’m not feeling well, I thought it best to personally convey my congratulations face to face.”
“Ah…?”
Anetha blinked stupidly several times in confusion.
Hestia, not offering the expected apology, visibly disconcerted her.
Hestia’s smile grew as she looked at Anetha, tilting her head slightly, as if to prompt Anetha to return a response to her congratulatory message.
Finally, Anetha stammered out a response, looking befuddled.
“Thank… you?”
Hestia nodded approvingly.
“Don’t mention it. Please continue to work hard as the representative of God’s will.”
“…Yes, I’ll try.”
Anetha’s voice lowered even further.
Hestia briefly observed Anetha’s face contorting slightly, then nonchalantly took her seat opposite her.
Soon, delicious and warm dishes began to appear in front of her.
Anetha quickly composed herself and sat down again. Briefly glaring at Hestia in resentment, she then surreptitiously handed something to the priest sitting next to her.
Hestia recognized it as a paper containing the prophecy and held her breath.
‘It’s the same as the day I remember.’
It really was a return to the past.
Feeling both realization and impatience, she knew there was no time to calmly plan and verify her next steps.
As soon as the meal ended, Anetha would announce her received prophecy, and thereafter, regardless of Hestia’s wishes, everything would unfold according to their whims.
‘I don’t have to change everything. But I won’t fear death anymore.’
Hestia straightened up, a newfound strength in her posture.
‘I just want the rest of my life to be entirely my own.’
So, let’s play a little trick, just a little one.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
