Makio had been dating girls and enjoying a reasonably happy time in his youth. However, he could never quite find sexual fulfilment and was tormented by the thought that perhaps he was actually attracted to men. Taking the opportunity of moving to Tokyo for university, he decided to meet Kiyo, whom he’d met on a dating app! When Kiyo insisted, “Sex between men is just a quick in-and-out affair,” Makio felt a surge of sadness mixed with tenderness. ‘I want to be so gentle with you.’ The morning after they’d spent such a tender time together, as if they were lovers, Makio was certain they were starting a relationship—only for Kiyo to tell him it was over!? ‘Unlike me, who only gets old blokes to go out with, you can have a normal romance with a man. So, bye-bye.’ After days of sending messages only to be ignored, one day he had a miraculous reunion with Kiyo at his part-time job…!?
Liliana, the daughter of an earl, is known as a "useless, failed saint"—a hopeless dropout in everyone's eyes. But in truth, her magical power had been constantly stolen by her half-sister, which is why she was never able to show her true abilities. One day, a marriage proposal arrives from the marquess of a neighbouring country. The current head of the family, Sirius Lundvall, clearly states "I hate saints." Although Liliana isn't enthusiastic about the proposal, she can't turn it down and ends up marrying him. As expected, Sirius is cold and distant toward her at first. However, as he begins to see Liliana's honest and sincere nature, he slowly starts to open his heart to her, and the two gradually grow closer… **Original Webtoon:** [CMOA](https://www.cmoa.jp/title/309678/), [eBook Japan](https://ebookjapan.yahoo.co.jp/stories/144617/), [LINE Webtoon](https://manga.line.me/product/periodic?id=S144617)
