Plot
The story takes place in the kingdom of Zied in a fantasy world. Rua, a baron's orphaned daughter, grew up in a temple to become a candidate for the rank of Saintess, a title founded by a legendary healer in the past, but her healing powers have a vital flaw: She can only heal others by taking their hurts and ailments upon herself. Maligned and ridiculed by the other inhabitants of the Temple, her best friend Arianne seems to be her only supporter. When her crush, Garrett Vance of the Royal Knights, is critically wounded in a fight against a demonic beast, Rua heals him but collapses from the pain. When she recovers, she is devastated to learn that Arianne has taken credit for saving Garrett's life, is set to marry him and become the Temple's new Saintess, a position which has been vacant for ten years after the previous Saintness' demise. When the people continue to unjustly deride her, she begins using her powers to hurt them back, revelling in seeing them suffer the same way she did.Her despair is noted by Sven, the second prince of Zied, and he recruits her for his cause. As he informs her, the Temple's High Priest is conspiring to unleash an artificially made, near-incurable disease against the kingdom's people. By having his sponsored Saintess Arianne heal the infected, he intends to increase the Temple's public support and then eventually seize rulership for himself. After catching the High Priest and Arianne at a clandestine meeting, and thus confirming Sven's accusations for herself, Rua joins his plan to stop the conspiracy before it gains momentum in order to get revenge on her malefactors.
