"The Saint and the Prince" this story is like any other cliche, the prince has a betrothed, whose destiny is to be the saint and protect the kingdom together with the prince, but a new prophecy appears and now the saint will be the one who comes from another world. Just as the oracle says, one night while the prince and the other nobles are camping on the shore of the lake during the hunting festival, a mysterious girl arrives there fleeing from the harpies, voracious beasts that feed on every living being, of course, the prince saves her and upon hearing her speak in an unknown language, she is taken to the temple, where it is announced that she is the saint of the prophecy, therefore it is the duty of the royal family to take care of her and so it is the prince who takes charge of teaching her everything, which leads them to fall in love, just as the prophecy dictated.

The prince's betrothed, upon hearing this, becomes enraged, she and her family refuse to accept the humiliation of breaking the engagement, but the prince and said girl have the support of the temple, even so, the ex-betrothed tries to kill the saint, but she is eventually discovered and instead of being executed, she is sent to the dark forests, that forest where all kinds of voracious creatures live and although that girl, considered a villain, knew about magic and fighting, she could do nothing and died being devoured by those beasts.

And so the protagonists get rid of the villain, but after losing the support of the villain's family, the royal family begins to decline in the face of the growing influence of other nobles who desire the crown and being related to the royal family, they could occupy the throne if they have greater influence. So the saint takes on the task of helping the prince, going together to the northern empire, known as Flylen, an empire known for its great power and because the northern border belongs to Archduke Alessandro Morozov, the leader of the clan of werewolves in the north, this man had the same influence as a king could have, so the saint proposes to ask for his support for the royal family and of course, with her kindness and power she succeeds, by healing the sick of a nearby village who had become ill due to the pollution of the lake, in this way, the saint earns his favor and thus, with his influence, the king's power grows and the rivals are displaced.

The king's cousin, furious at losing, kidnaps the saint and takes her with him to the dark forest, because if he dies, so does the saint, but Alessandro saves her, although due to the number of beasts in that place and the depth of the forest, Alessandro is badly injured, but the saint heals him with her power.

Thus with another villain dead, the protagonists can finally get married and live their happily ever after.

For Larisa, it was an absurd novel, the protagonist obtained everything just for being the saint, but in her opinion she had nothing of a saint, because she did not care about the feelings of the prince's betrothed, she was only interested in being happy, at the expense of others and that is exactly what was happening now, Larisa had awakened in the body of the villain, Lune Blanche, daughter of the Blanche duchy, the most powerful duchy in the Num kingdom.

Everything happened months ago, at first she didn't know what was happening, the Blanches believed that she had gone crazy because the saint had appeared a few days ago and it had been announced that she would be the one who should marry the prince, then little by little she adapted to what was happening and the memories of the previous Lune filled her head, that's how she understood that she had arrived in the world of that novel that she hated and on top of that, she was the villain. But she would take everything calmly, so as not to perish in that dark forest, she would simply accept the breaking of the engagement when the prince proposed it and would let him be happy with his little saint.

Lune let time pass and she was indeed summoned to the palace, the scene was just like in the novel, the throne room was full of noble people, priests of the temple and the kings on their thrones next to the prince, who had the saint standing by his side.

《Pff he doesn't even offer the saint a seat, what a prince.》she scoffed in her thoughts.

Although as she smiled slightly, everyone present was surprised.

"Lady Blanche, Duke Blanche, we have called you for an important matter, I know it will not be to your liking, but this is how the oracle has said..."

"Yes, I know, the prince must break his engagement with me, to marry the saint." Lune mentions without much interest.

"What? That's absurd, the oracle had predicted that the prince's wife would be my daughter." complains the duke.

"I understand your discontent, but there is nothing I can do..."

"But..."

"Alright, I accept, if it is the oracle's decision." she moves her middle and index fingers as quotes."I cannot go against it."

"But Lune...this is a humiliation...then nobody will want to marry you, haven't you thought about that?" the duke looked angrily at the king.

"Of course I have thought about it, but I offer to find the best candidate for Lady Blanche." expresses the king.

"It is not necessary, father, I cannot force the prince to marry me and leave the saint in an obvious disgrace, after having given her love, right?" she smiles maliciously.

Those words were undoubtedly loaded with malice and by the faces of everyone present, it was quite evident that they had understood what she meant. Looking at the saint, she had a red face of shame and lowered her gaze, while the prince looked at her angrily.

"Mind your words Lady Blanche." demands the archbishop.

"What did I say? Aren't the prince and the saint very much in love?"

"But your words..."

"Calm down, it is obvious that Lady Blanche is just jealous and resentful because of the breakup." finally speaks the prince.

"Jealous and resentful? Why would I be? Don't tell me, does your highness think that I am in love with you?" laughter invaded the room.

Lune couldn't stop laughing, but upon seeing the annoyance of the kings, she calms down and lets out a sigh. Looking intently at the prince.

"I'm sorry, like you, I was just tied to an engagement and had to act like the perfect betrothed, but now I am relieved to know that I am free from an engagement where I would never love my husband." Lune looked with a big smile.

All those present could not believe what they were hearing, if they were not witnessing everything, nobody would believe that Lune does not love the prince, but that security with which she says it and her behavior are in accordance with her words. For his part, the prince squeezed his hands on the armrests, undoubtedly his pride was hurt by Lune's words.

"Are you saying that the prince is not enough for you, Lady Blanche?" expressed the queen.

"I never said that, it is something that you have just implied majesty. He is simply a man that I cannot love, my heart belongs to another."

The prince stands up looking furious.

"Are you saying that while we were engaged you were seeing another man? This is an insult." he complains.

"I never said that I saw him, unlike you highness, I will go for him now that my engagement is broken, don't take him as a lover while you were engaged." she smiles maliciously.

Obviously the romance of the prince and the saint was well known, they falling in love when the prince was still engaged. The aforementioned one only lowers her gaze, ashamed, she doesn't know what to say, typical of the protagonists.

"Enough, not only do you humiliate my daughter, but you also want to make her look like an unfaithful woman, everyone here in the kingdom knows about the loving encounters between the saint and the prince, I don't think they have anything to reproach my daughter for." expressed the duke furiously.

Silence reigned in the hall, while the duke and Lune walk towards the exit, Lune with her head held high and a big smile. Upon being in the carriage, Lune lets out a long sigh, everything went well and she was not expelled from the kingdom, her father gives her a pat on the shoulder.

"You were amazing, everyone there was left speechless." the duke was proud.

"Thank you father, I couldn't remain silent while they insult me. A Blanche doesn't lower his head to anyone, right?"

"That's right. Regarding that boy you love...do you want an engagement with him?"

"What? N-no father, I only said that to annoy, there is no one. If you don't mind, I don't want an arranged engagement..."

"It's okay, I won't force you to anything, I hope that over time you find a good guy. Even if he is not a noble, I will accept him."

"Thank you, father."

Lune can't help but think, that the real Lune in the story, was too silly, she had a nice family that she left suffering because of her death, all for fighting a man who didn't even love her and who was worthless. Now she must think about what she will do with her life from now on.

"Father...can I join your hunters? I want to travel and you know that I am strong."

"The hunters? Lune that is dangerous, you know that they face fierce beasts, I cannot expose you to such danger." mentions worried.

"Calm down father, I won't do anything risky, I promise..." she mentions with security.

One month later...

Darkness invades that forest, the growl of the beasts disturbs the silence of that place and a young woman with black hair looks confused in the middle of that forest.

"WHERE THE HELL AM I?!"

And there was Lune, lost without knowing where to return. She knows she promised her father not to put herself in danger, but it was unavoidable. She can't just sit and watch everyone fight, and besides, it was an emergency, because it was the beasts who attacked the camp. She got lost following a group of these beings, whom she of course defeated, but in exchange, she got lost.

She walks trying to follow the tracks she left, but obviously they have already been erased by the wind and other animals walking around. She searches in the bag she carries on her waist for something that can be useful, but she only had a cookie. At least she won't be hungry, and she also has a light gem, which she turns on to see the way.

The night had already advanced and she was sure that she had already passed through that place. Surely she was walking in circles, so she looked for a trunk where she sat down. The temperature was dropping, she wasn't going to be able to sleep in the open there. She lit a flame on a branch and left it on the ground to warm her body, although it would be difficult to sleep in that place, especially if there is only dirt. She looked up, a tree would be a better option, but the problem is the cold. If she sleeps, the flame will surely go out. She sighed and resigned herself to gathering branches and leaves to lie on, at least she would be a little comfortable.

That's how the night was passing, when sleep began to overcome her, the flame began to go out, so she would wake up again and again, until morning came. Lucky for her that no beasts came out to attack her. Since it was daytime, perhaps it would be easier to find the way back. She began to walk north. If she remembers correctly, they are near the border of Flylen, maybe she can find a village and get a horse. After all, she still has some coins and a cookie.

Being already tired, she sits on a log and stretches her feet a little. Luckily she wasn't wearing heels the night of the attack and those boots were the first thing she could grab in the chaos of the attack. She was looking up trying to find a fruit tree, but there was none. She supposes it is because the beasts inhabit that place and just as she looked at a tree, she noticed that the branches were moving. There is definitely something there, so she places her hand on the hilt of her sword, ready to attack whatever it is, but she starts walking again. If she looks around, there are at least five of those things following her and they will soon show themselves. They were huge beasts like a mixture of mantises and spiders, huge legs and pincers to attack, along with fierce jaws. Lune prepares with her sword but in an oversight, that thing throws a kind of sticky thread at her that snatches the sword and another pounces on her trying to cut her with its pincers. Lune kicks it and manages to free herself, but as she runs, another beast manages to reach her pulling her ankle, so she kicks but can't break free.

"Damn it... I guess there's no other choice..." she has to use her power.

Just when she raises her hand, something jumps against the beast and this causes it to release her. Lune crawls backwards and sees that what attacked, was a huge white werewolf, who easily tore those beasts with his claws. Upon finishing with the last one, he turns towards Lune, who had already picked up her sword. Lune knows perfectly well what that thing is, a werewolf, which means she is near the border of Flylen. But even if he is a werewolf, it doesn't mean that he can't be aggressive with her for not being from that territory, so she must be prepared.

Although before she could say anything or talk to him, she hears the galloping of horses, so the werewolf simply prefers to leave. It doesn't take long for the hunters of the Blanche to appear.

"My lady... thank the gods you're alright." expresses the captain.

He was a man who was not over thirty, well preserved and good looking. His wife must be very jealous, especially because as a hunter he must travel a lot. But that doesn't matter anymore.

"Captain Reynold, I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad to see you."

"I say the same, I don't even want to know what your father would do to me if I only bring him a leg or an arm of yours." he jokes.

"Your concern touches me, sir."

"Come on, we must get out of here before nightfall."

One of the men hands her a horse, so she gets on and they head in the same direction as her. Reynold says that when leaving the forest there is a town protected with a barrier, so they can stay there until tomorrow.

****

On the other hand, in a mansion, that white lycan enters through the door of said residence, where he returns to his human form, while a butler passes him a robe, which he puts on to cover his body.

"Were you able to find what you were looking for, your highness?" asks the old man.

"One can say yes and I don't think it will be a nuisance. Send a message to my mother, tell her there is no danger."

"Of course, your highness. With your permission." the man bows and withdraws.

That albino boy goes up the stairs to go to his room, asking other servants to prepare his bath. Being in his bathtub he remembers what has happened, his mother had sent him to say that there was a growing energy of dark magic in the territories of the neighboring kingdom, so she asked him to investigate, in case it is any threat to the empire, but the source of that energy, turned out to be just a young girl and her presence did not seem aggressive, but what caught his attention is that despite being attacked by those beasts, she showed no fear, not even before him, when sometimes humans are usually scared before the presence of a werewolf.

"Interesting..." he smiled slyly.

The Archduchy was a territory located on the border of the Flylen empire, an extensive territory that anyone would think was a kingdom. The territory was known as Hyle, which means howl, referring to the wolves. Alessandro had been the Archduke of that territory since he was 18 years old, his mother gave it to him as a birthday present, and since then, despite being a territory where it is always snowing, it has prospered very well and lives in harmony, since not only are there lycanthropes in that place, there are also humans who live with them in peace. The lycanthropes are usually very helpful, since they usually go hunting and bring meat so that families can survive during the long snowfalls, in exchange, of course, the humans prepare delicious side dishes with the meat, this system has been working for 10 years. Today, Alessandro is 28 years old and despite his youth, he is respected throughout the territory.

In a village near the border, Lune and the hunters had stayed to sleep in an inn. Early in the morning, they had breakfast, and now Reynold tells Lune that they must go to the mansion of the Archduke of Hyle.

Lune is surprised by this, she knows that she has changed some things since she arrived, but she did not think that she would meet the extra character in the story, the Archduke Alessandro.

"I don't understand, why do you have to see the Archduke?"

"Your father has business with him and I am the one who will mediate, since your father cannot come this time."

Lune does not respond, she does not remember if in the story, the Duke Blanche had business with Alessandro. But at least she will have the opportunity to meet him, he was one of her favorite characters, because he did not fall in love with the saint, he simply saw her as a friend and as long as she was not a threat to him, then they were at peace.

In the kingdom of Num, inside the temple, the priests were somewhat dismayed, since the oracle has told them that a change will be the fall of the royal family and with it, the temple will fall.

"Destroy the witch queen and you will avoid the fall, she hides her true self, a cursed soul that comes from another world..."

"From another world? Like the saint?" asks the priest in amazement.

"No, she is just the soul, she has possessed a being of this world to hide her true nature."

Says the representative of the oracle, who is an old man known as the sage. The priests were dismayed by his words, the saint who was present is worried, but tries to calm the situation.

"If we find the witch queen we can save the kingdom. Great sage, has the oracle not told you who it may be?" asks the saint.

"I am afraid that the oracle is not so exact, it is up to us to find her. But this can help you detect her power."

The old man gives her a necklace with a white jewel, he explains that when the jewel reacts to a dangerous magic, it will turn black and that way they will know who the witch queen is.

"Then we will organize her search, we will take the sacred guards." mentions the high priest.

"No, this mission can only be fulfilled by the saint, the jewel only works with her, she will be in charge of guiding the sacred guards." mentions the sage.

The girl clenches her hands on the skirt of her dress, she did not expect something like that to be entrusted to her, she is barely learning to use her powers.

"I will take charge of this mission, as the saint I promise to save this kingdom."

The girl looks determined before everyone. Upon leaving the temple, she gets into her carriage to go to the palace, upon arriving she looks for the prince to let him know what the oracle has revealed, she will soon leave with the guardians to look for the witch, but she was fearful, she has not been in that world for long, she does not know how to fight, she barely knows how to use her healing powers, besides outside the barriers, the world is dangerous.

"I will go with you, do not worry. As the heir of Num I cannot let that witch get away with it either." expresses the prince holding the hand of the saint.

She shows a slight blush and thanks him for his concern, without him, her stay in that world would not be good, because thanks to the prince she has learned a lot.

Lune traveled with the hunters towards the Archduke's mansion, but being still far away it would take them another day to arrive, so they had to stop to set up a camp, the magicians of the group are in charge of raising the barrier around them, using a kind of crystals, which they place in specific places and thus, these raise an invisible barrier that prevents the harpies from smelling their aroma, as these are attracted by the human scent, being part of their food chain.

Lune sat near the fire using a blanket to sit on it and a cloak to keep warm. Reynold tells her that there is a tent for her, but Lune prefers to stay there near the fire, so she lies down, Reynold leaves her alone and goes to his tent to rest, having the barrier there is no need to stand guard, because no one can leave and no one can enter. Lune lay down looking at the sky, the stars shone in all their splendor with a beautiful full moon, that made her remember the lycanthrope she saw two nights ago, it was white as snow and his eyes were a beautiful blue color. Lune sits up suddenly having remembered something.

"It can't be... It was him..."

She is sure that the Archduke Alessandro was described that way, a beautiful white lycanthrope with blue eyes, the color of his eyes were unique, due to their clarity and without realizing it she had him before her. She lay down again and curled up with her cloak.

"How did I not remember it at that moment." she clicks her tongue.

...
