The goddess is biding her time. She knows that a hero will soon be born so have the hero, the saintess, and a few other high class jobs team up to take out the demon lord. They probably still won’t win but they stand a better chance than the saintess attacking by herselfThanks for the TL!
Ah yes, here's the attempt to make the saint a sympathetic villain. At this rate, it'll eventually end up with the saint becoming one of those, "The goddess rescued me from a shit situation so I devoted myself to 'good' (TM) to repay their kindness. I didn't want to do evil but the goddess made me!" with the Fenrir gently letting the saint pet them once out of 'forgiveness'. I'd like it to kindly fuck off so that we can enjoy more fluffies.
That said, having the goddess be smart enough to not cross paths with the MC is somewhat refreshing. A nice change of pace to have the villain know they're outmatched and plan around it than having them constantly plot to fight them directly and fail miserably like other stories.
Nah, it's to show that the "goddess" is brainwashing the Saint. If you notice how she's telling herself that people don't wholeheartedly want good yet gets a headache when remembering the pure little girl, that's like foreshadowing for the goddess actually being the bad guy.attempt to make the saint a sympathetic villain
I wouldn't say it's on her own. On a past memory of Zakkun, the goddess says that his status should have him hold unconditional hatred for humans, hinting that the more powerful the Job Class, the more the influence she has on their mind. Zakkun is strong enough a character that is able to keep it at bay, but Marianne seemingly has a traumatic past, which the Goddess can easily take advantage of to assume control over her mind.I liked it better when she was easier to hate, now shes just a puppet doing shitty things in the name of an absolute trash goddess, misguided or not shes still chosing to do these terrible things all on her own, I hope the author doesnt hand wave all that away later
Too bad for you, she will become the Pope of Kanata's worshipper.I liked it better when she was easier to hate, now shes just a puppet doing shitty things in the name of an absolute trash goddess, misguided or not shes still chosing to do these terrible things all on her own, I hope the author doesnt hand wave all that away later
Nah, I prefer the more grey approach over black and white. It did show that she comes from a good heart that was twisted over time.I liked it better when she was easier to hate, now shes just a puppet doing shitty things in the name of an absolute trash goddess, misguided or not shes still chosing to do these terrible things all on her own, I hope the author doesnt hand wave all that away later
