Until that one moment, my life was spectacular.... more>>

I was surrounded by many friends and even thought their smiles had some trust in them, so much as a sliver.

However, none had faith in me. Not them, not my teacher, not even my girlfriend. They all refused to listen.

I’ve then learned that “mutual trust” is nothing but fiction. The sad reality of their pretend friendships overwhelmed me, and since then, I haven’t been able to build proper human connections.

So, please, just leave me alone…
Don’t talk to me anymore…

There’s no soil for trust to bloom between us, people whose eyes can’t see beneath the surface. <<less

On the day of the celebration for defeating one of the demons who ruled over the land, the young assassin Noel was exiled for what he could not control. Deemed unworthy of continuing in the Hero of Light's party due to being 'tainted' by his attribute of Darkness, he was left alone.... more>>

In his despair, Noel stumbled upon young girls who have also been subjected to unjust treatment, which led him to make a decision. He would form a party of those with the same attributes of Darkness and become a hero who'd save the world, finally basking in the limelight he could never even touch.

Eventually, the legend of Noel and his companions, hailed as the true heroes behind the subjugation of the demons, would be spread far and wide. His journey—their journey begins here and now.

“Evelyn, we don't need you anymore. Get out of this country immediately.”... more>>

The Saint, Evelyn was suddenly told that one day.

Evelyn, who has been praying for her country at the temple since she was five years old, is now twenty-eight years old.

Evelyn's former fiancé, Alex, the First Prince, and her sister, Mary, ridicule her.

“How pathetic of a woman to be late getting married after her magic has weakened!”

(Late marriage... that's because you broke off your engagement with me last year and got engaged to my sister, remember?)

Evelyn has been expelled from both the temple and her family home, leaving her to fend for herself. The only thing she has left is her weakened magic power.

Evelyn lives for the day, using her healing magic, but an encounter with a man changes her life forever.

“I'm glad you're not married yet… It's the only reason we're here.”

(That's not fair to say!)

A former Saint uses her healing magic diligently everyday, while being pampered by a sweet young Count and adored by the people.

—By the way, I was wondering if my magic power is really weakening. <<less

This is already his 12th time saving her. Jun Aiba can't believe someone's determination to die surpasses his own. Sometimes on the platform, sometimes on the bridge, he always "saves" her at the critical moment, though for the girl, it's nothing but a "hindrance."

Tsukimi doesn't know this annoying boy's timely appearances are not due to miracles, but a deal with the Grim Reaper. He trades for a "Time-Eating Silver Watch" that can turn back time by 24 hours, but the price is having only three years left to live.

So, Jun repeatedly rewinds time to the moments before Tsukimi's su*cide. He takes her on outings, listens to her feelings, and as they gradually get closer, Jun Aiba becomes so happy that he almost forgets the Grim Reaper's warning: never regret the decision to give up on life... <<less
