My elder sister is the villainess!? Don't be ridiculous! I will never forgive you for demeaning my sister!!" - Chapter 4 - Revenge 4

My second most hated adversary in this world.

That would be the former Crown Princess, Lucia.

After the secret was exposed, the Crown Prince and his wife divorced.

They apparently staged a messy divorce drama, but it had nothing to do with me.

Whether there was a rift between the royal family and the temple, who cares?

They claimed they divorced by mutual consent, but that’s definitely not true.

Both the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess messed up royally. It was a situation where neither could shift the blame.

The former Crown Princess returned to being a commoner, Lucia Santa.

And now, Lucia is at the temple.

I had initially thought I could just get rid of her as a nuisance, but it seems her title as a “former saint” made that impossible.

Because of that woman, my elder sister suffered so much.

It wasn’t just my elder sister!

Many women had their lives ruined.

“Miguel, do you know? Lucia endured severe harassment throughout her time at the academy.”

“Unfortunately, my elder sister’s false charges have been proven.”

“Yes… It turns out it wasn’t the Duke’s daughter, Bridget Pecelot, who was the culprit. Lucia suspected the Duke’s daughter, who constantly criticized her, so we did the same…”

“The temple seems to have its fair share of intense misconceptions as well. They are equally responsible for putting my innocent elder sister through hell. By the way, I heard the former saint lost her powers suddenly.”

“Yes… I don’t know the reason… but she suddenly…”

“God watches over all. He knows who the wicked ones are.”

“…”

“By the way, you mentioned earlier that my elder sister criticized the former saint. That’s a misunderstanding as well.”

“What…?”

“Yes. She only warned her because she noticed that she was showing too much interest in high-ranking noble sons who had fiancées. Yet, the former saint, in her jealousy, made a big scene, claiming it was all due to envy. Oh, she’s still the same even now.”

“…”

“It’s inevitable when dealing with girls who have delusions of persecution like animals that can’t understand words. But the temple has no choice but to educate such a girl as a saint. By the way, in society, many people mock the former saint as the ‘saint of lust.’ It’s quite accurate, don’t you think?”

The priest in front of me was visibly getting paler, but I didn’t care at all. It was the truth. Well, I was surprised at how quickly the public opinion of the Crown Prince and his wife’s marriage turned around, but…

“In any case, openly engaging in extramarital affairs and expecting to be blessed is seriously deluded. Don’t you agree?”

“Well…”

“She claims she suffered, but she’s been inflicting suffering all along. Have you ever thought about why they haven’t been punished even though we’ve identified the culprits?”

“…”

“Did you know that among the culprits, there were also commoner students?”

“!!”

Is that really so surprising?

“So, commoner students were… harassing Lucia?”

“Yes.”

“Why!? They’re commoners too!!”

“That’s why, right?”

“Huh?”

They didn’t seem to understand at all. Just because they’re commoners, did they think they were automatically comrades?

Was this priest’s head also filled with flowers, like the former saint’s?

In fact, because they were commoners, other commoner students had nowhere to go. There was no place for them at the academy. All because of one former saint.

“Commoner students, especially the girls, were rumored to be targeting noble students – that was the common perception among the noble students. After all, there were success stories. Whether they were aiming for wealthy marriages or reverse wealthy marriages, you can’t rule it out. That’s why, although it’s not the only reason, the board of directors is considering a review of the academy’s operations. The extreme members of the board even believe that allowing commoners into the academy in the first place was a mistake. Despite the fact that most commoner students are diligent and striving for their future, all because of one former saint, they’ve had their futures darkened.”

“Lord Miguel… What in the world…”

“Starting next year, the academy will stop admitting commoners.”

“??”

“Do you know where the commoners’ resentment will be directed, Lord Miguel?”

He finally seemed to understand what I was getting at.

Yes, it’s all Lucia’s fault. If Lucia weren’t here, commoner students wouldn’t have been put in such a difficult position. It’s too late for them to realize that now.
