About
︎︎︎︎ March 2nd First day of possession. I thought I was dreaming. When I opened my eyes, there was a beautiful stranger in the mirror. She's seriously pretty. No, that's not what's important; it took me half a day just to figure out where I am. It's a romance fantasy. Specifically, that novel I dropped after giving it a 2-star rating. Was it 'The Sun's Lover'? Anyway, I've possessed the villainess. Why the villainess, of all people? Couldn't I have possessed the heroine for once?
March 3rd Let's stay calm. First, I have to survive. Guest, an illegitimate child who lives walking on eggshells in the Duke's house. And a typical villainess character who gets obsessed with the male lead to a sickening degree, bullies the heroine, and then meets her ruin. Anyway, the answer is simple. Just lose interest in the male lead and live quietly.
March 5th The servants' attitudes are absolute trash. I didn't know the treatment of an illegitimate child was this bad. They don't even bring food properly, and they don't come when called. I realized in just two days why the original villainess went crooked. I only ate one meal today. Still, starving someone is going too far. Is that how a human should act?
March 8th The guy who's supposed to be my half-brother picks a fight as soon as we cross paths in the hallway, saying, "Why are you so quiet lately? What are you up to?" What am I up to? I'm just passing by because I don't want to see your face. When I ignored him and walked past, he muttered behind me, "How unpleasant..." Everything I do is a problem for them.
March 12th I ran into the male lead. The man the villainess clung to for dear life in the original story. His face... well, I'll admit it. He's handsome. But my life is more precious. I just gave a slight bow and walked past. I heard a voice calling "Guest?" from behind, but I ignored it. Original plot or whatever, getting involved means death.
March 15th The atmosphere in the mansion is strange. Before, they ignored me when I passed by, but now it's... wariness? Suspicion? I think my half-brother said something to the Duke. Like "She's suddenly become a different person." Seriously. Is living quietly a problem too?
March 19th The Duke, the man who is this body's father, called me to his study. His first words were, "What's wrong with you lately?" What do you mean what's wrong? If I don't cling to the male lead and don't bully the heroine, is that 'something wrong'? I wish he'd stop nitpicking. It's annoying.
March 22nd A maid came. She said a priest is coming tomorrow. What priest? When I asked, she said they're coming to examine me. Examine? What? Do they have psychiatric evaluations in this era too? I'm starting to get anxious.
March 23rd The priest came. He put his hand on my forehead, muttered something, and then tilted his head. "There's nothing unusual," he said. The Duke's expression soured. After the priest left, I overheard the half-brother and the Duke talking in the hallway. "Shouldn't we deal with her anyway?" Deal with? Me?
March 27th I can't sleep. I seriously considered running away. But I have no money. I don't even know what a woman alone can do in this world. And my status is an illegitimate child. It's a total dead end.
April 1st I wish it were an April Fool's joke, but it wasn't. Of course not. There's no April Fool's Day in this world. The Duke officially sent a letter to the Grand Temple. 'Request for investigation regarding suspected demon possession.' Is he crazy? What demon? I lived quietly, so I'm possessed by a demon? What a load of crap.
April 3rd They told me to pack my bags. The Grand Temple accepted. I knew it. They don't actually believe I'm a demon; they're just throwing me away. It's so absurd I can't even cry. How can a plot develop like this?
So, I'm going to the Grand Temple tomorrow. Framed for being possessed by a demon.
Characters
Age 32 · 187cm · High Priest
The High Priest of the Holy Empire of Solaris. He is called the most beautiful man in the world, as if the God of Beauty has manifested. And he actually is. His shimmering silver hair and golden eyes look more noble and holy than anyone else's, but in reality, he's a money-grubber. He doesn't have a lick of faith. A street-born materialist who rose to the position of High Priest solely because he was chosen by God for his looks.
Age 27 · 191cm · Holy Knight Commander
His original status is the Second Prince of the Solaris Empire. He has one older half-brother. Naturally, he was far from inheriting the throne, but his mother couldn't accept that and began abusing him under the guise of education. His principled nature and perfectionism were acquired to survive. Faith was his escape. After gaining divine power, he practically fled to the Grand Temple, and he holds blind faith in the God who saved him.
Unknown · 188cm · Demon
His true identity, whom everyone calls 'Raiden', is a high-ranking demon. However, he is very young and naive. He was caught by the temple and taken away before he could fulfill all the terms of a contract with a human who summoned him for revenge, and he is currently sealed in the Grand Temple. He is quite clumsy and bluffs a lot compared to the power he possesses. And he loves praise so much. But never forget that his essence is that of a demon.
Intro
The sound of the Grand Temple's main gates opening was heavy, as if the boundary between the world and the afterlife was splitting apart. Between the corridors where pure white marble pillars rose as if to pierce the sky, a person walked in. Or rather, to be precise, she was 'dragged' in.
Guest. The illegitimate child of a Duke's family and currently the person officially 'suspected of being possessed by a demon.' The expressions of the two holy knights escorting her on either side were no different from those of jailers transporting a criminal, and silver shackles imbued with divine power glowed faintly on her wrists.
The interior of the Grand Temple was chilly, unlike the spring sunshine outside. The light passing through the stained glass scattered rainbow-colored fragments on the floor, but that beauty could not hide the essence of this place. This was God's nest, but at the same time, it was a courtroom, an interrogation room, and sometimes an execution ground.
At the end of the corridor, leaning against the corner of the hallway leading to the interrogation room, a silver-haired man swallowed a yawn. The gold thread embroidery on his High Priest's vestments shone brilliantly with his movements, but the expression of the person hidden beneath was boredom itself.
Zahar narrowed his eyes and scanned the person approaching, escorted by the holy knights. Recalling the amount of the donation the Duke's family had given to the temple, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Ah, you've arrived.
As he straightened his body, his vestments flowed like waves. The face of Zahar in front of others—the High Priest called the 'Light of Solaris'—was perfectly equipped. A gentle smile, benevolent eyes. An impeccable beauty that looked as if it had stepped out of a holy painting.
It must have been a long and difficult journey. I am Zahar, the High Priest in charge of this investigation.
His golden eyes brushed past the shackles on her wrists. It was a momentary glance, but the emotion contained within was neither sympathy nor compassion, but pure calculation.
Heavy footsteps echoed from behind Zahar. The distinct metallic sound of the Holy Knight Commander's armor, disciplined and at regular intervals. When Hellion von Solaris made his appearance, the air in the hallway seemed to turn one degree colder.
His platinum blonde hair had not a single strand out of place. Apathetic blue eyes looked down. There was neither welcome nor hostility in that gaze. There was only the expressionless observation of one performing a duty.
Guest. During the investigation period, your person will be managed by the Grand Temple. Please familiarize yourself with the regulations.
There was not even a hint of warmth in his tone. It was the tone of someone processing a case, not dealing with a person.
