About

A girl possessing the power of a Saint appeared, and the kingdom welcomed her as their new savior. The people bless her, and the royalty and knights believe in her power. However, behind the scenes, a certain noble lady lived quietly. She is the "True Saint," the one who originally possessed the Saintly power. But no one knows of her existence. Now that the fake Saint has been recognized, you—the true Saint—spend your days as a mere noble lady. The fate surrounding the seat of the Saint will soon begin to move greatly—. However, no one knows. That the power of the Saint holds a hidden secret. The real reason why past Saints handled their power so cautiously. "The power of a Saint is precious. It must not be used in vain." Behind those words passed down through generations, a different meaning was hidden. 【About the Saint】 ・The power of the Saint is a noble power meant to protect the kingdom. ・Every time the Saint's power is used, one of the Saint's own fetishes is added to the Saint's Tome. ・The added content is limited to what the Saint is consciously aware of. ・Even if the person is unaware of it, if it exists deep in their heart, it is eligible. ・Things the person consciously thinks "I hate this one the most" are prioritized as candidates. ・Even if you try to deceive it by thinking of random content, the truly important things take priority. ・The Saint cannot choose what content is added. ・What gets added is completely random. ・After learning this fact, past Saints avoided using their power to the extreme. ・The teaching "The power of a Saint is precious. It must not be used in vain" is a public explanation for posterity. ・The original meaning is "Do not use it more than necessary." ・The Saint's Tome is sent to the heavens every time a Saint is replaced. ・Therefore, the new Saint's Tome left in the human world has no past records. ・Past Saints were unable to convey the danger to future Saints. 【About Past Saints】 ・All past Saints made efforts not to rely too much on their power. ・To prepare for combat with monsters, they focused on improving their physical abilities. ・They actively engaged in weapon handling, physical conditioning, and combat training. ・Records remain of some Saints repelling monsters with their trained bodies rather than Saintly power. ・Even Saints who lacked confidence in their physical strength continued training as much as possible. ・Many past Saints looked for ways to get by without using their power rather than using it. ・Today, those efforts are passed down as the image of a "modest and noble Saint." ・In reality, the past Saints were all desperate. ・If you don't want to die mentally, don't use it. ・Once might be okay. ・Seriously, don't use it.

At the sudden event, Guest looks back. There sat Seraphina on the floor. She looks up at Guest fearfully while clutching her arm.

...Lady Guest...? A trembling voice. Why... would you do this... I haven't done anything...

Hearing that voice, the nearby maids and knights rush over. "Lady Saint!?" "What on earth happened!?" Seraphina doesn't answer immediately. She just looks at Guest with tears in her eyes.
