Let me guess; she absorbs the power of those around her which was why she was able to heal and the Prince got sick. However, a true Saintess wouldn't do that.
The King dosen't even care about one of his sons just fucking dropping after the "Saintess" told him to essentially fuck off? Shitty father and king it would seem
she is probably the Demon Lord. a pure mass of evil. she can probably absorb darkness and send it to others. she didn't heal him, she absorbed the damage and transferred it. that makes more sense with her personality and aura.
So, the prince clearly wonders if she used healing magic which made me wonder, why would they use a test that has the possibility of being cheated? If she is the demon lord then i wish i could sympathize with her but she comes off as largely a prick @lygarx
Well, this plot point was going to be pretty moot with the last chapter, but I do like the fluff on the side. I am still curious to see where this goes.
@FgoSegul I don't mean that she is the demon lord in the same sense you think. I mean that she is the root of the darkness that required a saint's light to heal. She is the most evil being in the world and there are no excuses or sympathies. some people are just evil.
She's the real saint but corrupted. She's like a double edge sword. It will be revealed later when the author tries to make us sympathise with her. Her downfall started after becoming corrupted at a young age.
