Lithera Merto is on her third (and final) life- after dying at the hands of her husband the crown prince. With the regret of not getting to meet (and marry!) her longtime friend, Duke Pellus Termaine, she makes that her goal in her new life.
Originally transported into a fantasy novel as the protagonist, her second life she followed the novel closely as it was the only thing she can rely on. The God Noathe, accidently (I think?) took her and as repayment gave her one wish she can redeem (which she does to turn back time to marry Pellus).
She was a chosen one (by Noathe), became emperor, and saved the world from disaster all with the help (not really at all, revealed later) from the crown prince, who was manipulative and obssessed with her. When she became Emperor and all trials were beaten, she wanted a divorce but that led her to be murdered.
Living her third life, 3 lifetime worths of memory made her current body weak and stayed at home for most her life. Determined to get with Pellus, she decided to propose to him in the North.
Duke Termaine House was a collateral of the Imperial family, forced to guard the North from monsters. The Imperial family was afraid of them gaining influence and threatening the throne, killed Pellus’ parents leaving him alone to deal with the monsters. Shunned from high society (due to his beastly image), he only ever resides in the North until he meets Lithera.
Lithera tells Pellus the entire truth, about her 3 lives and such. They fall deeply in love and makes it their goal to live a happy life without anyone trying to disturb it.
Lithera meets with her friends from her previous life. She meets Kartha, a merchant whom she befriended before she met Pellus in this life in order to get connections. The high priest Astrum tries to divorce them, thinking that a chosen one has no right to be with a beastly duke but was punished by Lithera (she has holy powers) and changed his views. The Lord of the Magic Tower Bernum, whom she needed help with to research ruptures. Lady Monilla, the fiance of the crown prince, who is secretly planning a rebellion using Topaz, aka the bastard son of the Emperor, real name Javier. She was also one of Lithera’s great friends from the past and is a strong-willed and calculative woman.
When Lithera was disguised as a priest to obtain Pellus’ letters from her previous life, she runs into the crown prince and he becomes obsessed with her due to her showing him a smile that looked free (she was over him cuz she thought she was in love with him in her old life). Trying to find who she was, he found that she was Lithera Termaine and married to Pellus. Trying to get them divorced, there is a law enacted by the current emperor thst states the imperial family can annul a marriage if they deem they are harmful to one another with an exception to the imperial family. This was made by the emperor because he was in love with Sylvia termaine, Pellus mother and hated his father, Callips Termaine. The emperor’s suborbinate, and Callips best man murdered the both of them for recgoniztion from the Emperor, but the Emperor was mad because Sylvia died.
Crown prince thinking he can force the divorce law onto Lithera, he would have to proove she was in a harmful marriage, so she would plot with Pellus how in love they are to everyone in high society!
All the while there are ruptures occuring, monsters from her previous life as her old world was destroyed when she died. These ruptures only occur close to her and she regains her holy powers back the more she closes it. From these ruptures, she meets Kartha and Bernum from her old world but they were turned into demons (with wings but are still themselves). After she died, Pellus went crazy and killed the crown prince and is now protecting the dead Lithera’s body. Wanting to save the people and especially Pellus from her old world, she makes it another goal.
Pellus, Lithera, Mona and Javier eventually finds the connection between chosen ones, the founding story of the empire, and why house Termaine is made to fight monsters, they noticed that the duty to fend off monsters was the role of the imperial family, but they eventually neglected that and made house termaine (related to them) to do that duty. Afraid they would ursurp the throne, they made them have little influence and banned the priest when they fight so they have no healers. They also found that the imperial blood wields holy powers able to perform miracles and thats why Pellus hasnt died yet his whole life fighting without healers. They realize the imperial family doesnt know about this power and Pellus probably has used up all his miracles to keep him alive. The miracles are activated when the person has a strong will or wish. The reason Noathe choose chosen ones from another world is to kill mondters and save the world as the imperial family forgot that duty, and if they were to regain that power they would use it to flee.
Wanting to not become emperor or hero in this life (more like shes too weak in this life to be hero), Topaz stepped up to take that role not only to become a hero and become emperor, but he feels a strong sense of duty after hearing all that.
