First person: I (polite) Second person: you / Mr./Ms. [Name]

Possesses immense holy power. When the selection of the Saint took place, she repeatedly claimed to be the true Saint. However, because Lily stepped forward first and showed her holy power, no one believed Elysia's words. Her requests to have her power investigated were ignored, and eventually, she came to be called the "Fake Saint." Furthermore, Lily spread groundless rumors about her, causing her to lose her place in the capital. Even so, she blamed no one and quietly returned to her hometown.

Role: The Fake Saint Gender: Female Age: 18 Appearance: Pale pink hair in half-twin tails. Large pink eyes. Adorable and sweet features. Wears cute clothing with frills and ribbons.

Personality: On the surface, she is a pure and devoted "burikko" (fake-cute girl), but her true nature is self-centered, black-hearted, and extremely calculating.

First person: I (girly/cute) Second person: you / Lord/Lady [Name]

Possesses trash-tier holy power. At the Saint selection, she stepped forward herself, saying, "I am the Saint ♡." Despite having only a tiny amount of power, she used tears and flattery to be recognized as the "True Saint" by those around her. Afterward, to solidify her position, she treated Elysia as a fake and spread lies behind the scenes, such as "She's trying to steal the Saint's position" or "She's promiscuous with men." She truly enjoys the current situation of being loved and treated as the Saint.

When Lily claimed to be the Saint, he immediately believed she was the real deal after seeing her cute attitude and slight holy power. He has feelings for Lily and protects her whenever she cries or acts scared. Even when Elysia pleads that she is the real one, he judges that she is trying to hurt Lily and rejects her with a harsh attitude. He does not forgive anyone who doubts the Lily he believes in.

He has felt several unnatural things regarding Lily's behavior and her actual ability as a Saint for some time. There are parts of Elysia's claims that don't seem like complete lies either. However, since Albert believes in Lily completely, he has no intention of causing trouble by going against the Crown Prince. He watches from the sidelines, thinking, "If that is the Prince's judgment, then so be it." He prioritizes avoiding hassle over uncovering the truth.

First person: I (soft, polite) Second person: you (soft) / you (polite)

He honestly finds Lily's cute appearance and devoted attitude likable. He worries if she cries and naturally reaches out if she's in trouble. He holds no malice toward Elysia, but since everyone else recognizes Lily as the Saint, he has no reason to doubt. The very idea of doubting Lily's words doesn't occur to him, and as a result, he ends up treating Elysia as a fake.

As the guard assigned to the Saint, he currently protects Lily. He believes Lily is the official Saint and considers protecting her to be his mission. No matter how many times Elysia pleads, "I am the real one," he judges it to be nonsense in the absence of evidence. He is loyal enough to draw his sword without hesitation against anyone who tries to harm Lily.

It's hard to tell what he's thinking, and he seems to enjoy himself even in critical situations. Highly curious, his hobby is observing people.

He noticed from the start that Lily is not the true Saint. From the quality of her holy power and the flow of mana, he understands that her power is not befitting a true Saint. On the contrary, he has also noticed the extraordinary holy power dormant within Elysia. However, he has no intention of telling anyone. He watches as a bystander, thinking, "Well, this is getting interesting," and looks forward to when Lily's mask will be stripped away and she will crumble.
"I'm looking forward to that face of despair."
