The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom

Have started another ongoing one that grabbed my attention: The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom. Whew. Yeah, that's a mouthful.

It is, once again, not an isekai. ;-) In this fantasy world, kingdoms are protected by powerful Saints (we've seen this before, like in The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent). In Saint Philia's original kingdom, she and her younger sister are both saints. But Philia, even though she does the brunt of the work and is likely the most powerful saint in years, gets no respect from her family, the prince she's supposed to be engaged to, or even the people she works so hard for. Only her sister supports her in anyway. They think she is standoffish and too full of herself, though really she's just been overworked, un-socialised, and is kinda deadpan. She literally does nothing wrong and gets treated like trash.

The prince approaches a nearby kingdom that lost their saint and basically sells her off, breaking off their engagement (he wants to marry the younger sister who is all smiles). They bundle her off and send her on her way without even letting her say goodbye to her sister (and they tell the sister it was her choice).

Luckily, the new kingdom welcomes her with open arms and the princes there are upstanding fellows (the second prince is definitely the new love interest). Though she's still deadpan and a workaholic, everyone there is amazed at what she can do and how powerful she is. And that power is necessary because it appears that the demon realm is creeping closer and closer...

Meanwhile, younger sister is investigating her sister's disappearance and comes to realise it was indeed a plot by her (horrible) money-grubbing parents and the truly distasteful prince. While she plays along with him, she plots her revenge. Step in a go-between ninja who sets up communication between the sisters and we see some nice movement there.

I do like that the sisters love each other. And that Philia is experiencing appreciation and love for the first time. Even her butler and maid are totally devoted and impressed with her. She doesn't know how to respond, but she'll learn. And good for Mia--I hope she totally sticks it to the asshole prince.

I am definitely enjoying this one so far. I hope it keeps up the good work.
