    Why It Should Get Picked Up
    :In a time when so many otome game novel are the same. This one is a breath of fresh air. The novel is refreshing in the sense that the main character is reasonable and realistic in her actions against the people that betrayed. Doesn't accept nonsense from others and isn't the protagonist is transported to another world or reincarnated into a game world trope you see over and over again. Think Katahane no Riku.

    4 chapters at the moment and no updates for 2 months

    Description :
    Syltina was originally a Duke’s daughter.

    Sentenced to exiled two years ago, she crossed over to the neighboring country and entered its Guild. The current Syltina, who became strong to the extent that even foreign countries knew her name, was summoned by the country which exiled her.

    In order to purify the land defiled by monsters, Syltina gets stuck in a journey with a partner who constantly has zero motivation, the girl from the different world who drove her into banishment, the First Prince who was her former fiance, her former brother who is a Knight and a pointlessly shy magician.

    This is the story of Syltina slicing off enemies, playing the part of a Straight Man (tsukkomi) and sometimes, the Fool (boke) to her companions.

    Has it been that long? I like this story and expected updates, but it seems that there was not enough readers to keep momentum. I hope someone will pick it up.

    No she's not. I was comparing the setting not the character.

    Why It Should Get Picked Up:
    While there are many novels to which the villain of the story remembers a previous life, or their past, we have not seen one to which we get to see the 'villains' after life (or maybe we have and I didn't see it). It may not be about her past to say, but more the irony on how she was exiled but summoned back to fight for the Kingdom that betrayed her. It include the so-called 'summoned priestess,' being all goody-two shoes, acting innocent and being 'bullied', but like most novels, it for sure seems she is not all that pure as it seems to be. I think it's a very interesting novel to read! The first few chapters really made me want to read more, because I really wanted to see the interactions with the 'villian,' and those who exiled her. I really want to see how her former fiance acts to her gaining so much strength!

    They haven't really dropped it but it is more like the group has turned inactive on translating. Chapter 4 of this series was their last post.

    this doesn't seem like an uncommon novel tbh. 2 faced person? pretty common. Betrayed by kingdom? in a lot of novels their kingdom either supports them or tries to get rid of them. and i'm quite sure there are quite a few novels with reincarnation with any type of person lol. i think if you want this picked up as well, you might have to get confirmation from the translator(s) that are tling it so it isn't poaching.
    EDIT: nvm, it is eligible for pickup.

    I really liked the setup and how the female main character is so courageous and unflinching. Also, no forgiveness = no forgiveness.

    i read quite a bit of this through google translate, but i can say that this is quite an intriguing story. it's rather dark because of the themes of war and battle, but the female lead is realistic. She's a cool female lead, yeah!
