We've all read stories where the real saintess is banished and the country faces a catastrophic disaster yada yada yada. But what if the protagonist was actually a fake saintess? What if she was banished and she had to live her life with what she has as a fake saintess? This article is going to answer all that. Thence, I present you, the Top 2 Mangas where the protagonist is actually a Fake Saintess!
The Exiled Villainess is Under Surveillance!
After Momo was acknowledged as the true saintess, Chloe, a saintess candidate was banished for harrassing the now saintess Momo. When everyone feared Chloe will not yield so easily and would try to take revenge on Momo, Chloe's former fiancé Redrio, sent a spy to observe her for any attempts to take revenge on his beloved Momo. However, what awaited them was only bewilderment when the banished ‘Villainess’ finally shows her true colors.
The manga takes place in an otome game where Momo is the heroine and the true saintess and our protagonist Chloe is the villainess of the game. What nobody knows is that Momo and Chloe are both reincarnations, they both know the "original story" and they both try to bend the story to their own will. Chloe wants to avoid being killed, while Momo wants to achieve her own harem empire O.O... yeah. Chloe is considered to be a fake saintess because she was identified by the priests as a saintess when she was a child, and was taken to the temple to undergo saintess training. However, before Momo's coming-of-age ceremony, an oracle was delivered which announced Momo as a saintess candidate. Which as you can already guess, Momo was chosen as the saintess in the end (like the game story). On the romance side of things, Chloe and Locke get into a relationship, and the romantic development between them is paced well. Overall, it's a good fantasy romance story of our fake saintess.
The Real Saintess Arrived, So I Had to Go
400 years ago, the saintess disappeared from the country, and along with it, disappeared the art of healing magic. But when everyone was expecting for the arrival of a new saintess, no one appeared for decades. Fearing for the wellbeing of the general public, the king ordered the best wizards of the country to recreate healing magic. Thus, a family of wizards had produced "saintesses" for generations with the approval of the royalty. They could only use weak healing magic, but were still regarded as true saintesses and venerated by the public. Our protagonist Yui was one such "saintess" but when the real saintess appeared for the first time in 400 years, Yui, had to go.
The story is a medieval fantasy slice of life novel, featuring the daily life of our fake saintess Yui at the frontier she was banished to. Managing resources, protecting the border, demon subjugation, healing and curing at the border towns and a whole lot more. The fake saintess stays the fake saintess throughout the entire story because she really is a fake saintess. She is still respected by the public as the fact of her being a fake was never exposed, but rather as a "former saintess" who gave up her position because a more powerful saintess appeared that revolutionized the country. The novel lacks romance, and there are no conflicts between the real saintess in terms of interests or power grab. Overall, it's a slow paced casual novel, one that you might enjoy reading.
