After having a drink and falling asleep, I was transmigrated to a damned fantasy novel.

A year of living according to the stage directions of the damn author.

However...

[Ding!]

[Even if Part 1 ends, the story continues! And so part 2 commences! Welcome to <I Became the Saint Who Saved the World>!]

‘That damn author even wrote a part 2 of this?!’

"You swindler! I don’t want all of this, so send me back to my original world!!!"

Eventually I negotiated with that damn author.

That if I finish part 2 without getting caught, I would be sent back to my original world.

“Part 2 is childcare, isn't it? Alright. I'm going to finish this damned childcare novel super fast!"

The problem is that the setting is the same as the first part, and I keep running into my old comrades.

And they have all had an odd change in character.

“How did they become like this?”

Furthermore, the duchess that I possessed has a huge secret.

"Caw?!"
