Seven Seas licensed the novel series and Mago Ayakita's manga adaptation in English, and it describes the story:
Philia's family has produced saints for generations. It's no surprise that she's known as the greatest saint of all time—and set to marry the second prince, Julius. What no one expects is for Julius to call off the engagement, claiming that Philia's perfection makes her charmless and unlikable. To add insult to injury, Philia is packed off to a neighboring country in exchange for gold and resources, forcing her to leave her homeland! Despite bracing herself for mistreatment, Philia finds a warm welcome in her new town, where she puts her saintly abilities to good use erecting barriers against monsters and curing epidemics. But even as she flourishes in her new life, her homeland is under threat of destruction!
Fuyutsuki debuted the series as a web novel on the "Shōsetsuka ni Narō" website in July 2020. The story concluded in January 2022. Overlap will ship the seventh compiled book volume on December 25.
The series received a manga adaptation by Ayakita on Overlap's Comic Gardo platform in November 2021. Overlap shipped the fifth compiled book volume on June 25.
