Oswald, the kingdom's greatest mage, was well aware of his excellence not only in magic but also in appearance. However, to navigate life smoothly, he understood the need for amiability. As he skillfully maintained this facade, a proposal for an engagement with the Saintess came about. Just as he thought even his marriage would proceed smoothly enough, Oswald protected the Saintess during a battle with a magical beast, sustaining a large wound on his face. Not only a scar, but also miasma lingered on his face, and having exhausted all his magical power, he became bedridden.

What reached Oswald, who had lost both his powerful magic and his handsome looks, was a unilateral notice of engagement annulment and a letter stating that the Saintess's supposedly incompetent younger sister would be offered as his fiancée instead. There were also rumors that this younger sister was being oppressed by the Saintess herself. Oswald, having decided to abandon his life of pretense, accepted her as his new fiancée, believing she, too, should be free to live as she pleased, but he sensed something peculiar about her...?
