How do I even start with the spoilers for this one. Also, it's been awhile since I've finished reading the novel so I don't remember a the details.

1. Evelyn is a fake saintess. As for her motive, she's actually just a commoner (and an orphan) who went to the capital and saw the empress and thought to herself that if she was the empress, everyone would love her and she would have everything she ever wanted.

2. How did she become a "fake" saintess?

In both timelines (the first one where the world got destroyed and the current one), it was basically the same thing. She became orphaned and was sort of adopted by Selene (Empress' maid) and her mom. When Selene's mom died, they went to the capital.

In the first timeline, I think the moms death was an accident or a of natural cause (?) but in the second timeline, she deliberately killed the mom and Selene. Selene survived but lost her memories that's how she then met the empress and became her maid.

On the first timeline, Eveleyn found out that Selene was the daughter of a nun and a priest. Yes, the priest in question is the current high priest. The reason they went to the capital was to be closer to Selene's father.

Selene had no plans of telling the priest the truth about her birth but Evelyn thought differently. At this point, Evelyn was sort of at her breaking point. She was being treated like shit because she was poor and a commoner and was exhausted and desperate. So she deviced a plan and stole Selene's identity. (i don't remember what she did to Selene in the first timeline though).

She went to the high priest, introduced herself as his daughter, gave some evidence she stole from Selene, and threatened the high priest to make her the saintess. She thought that if the high priest says that there's a new prophecy and a new saintess, she would become an empress and get everything that she wanted - money, power, love. However, the emperor turned his back on the prophecy and declared he would only ever be with Anastasia.

This part is based on the first timeline. Evelyn threatened the high priest to use dark magic to summon a demon. She mad a Contract with the demon and asked it to threaten the empire in hopes that in doing so, the people wod pressure the emperor to marry her. But again, in the first timeline, the emperor instead went to war to protect his empire and died, empress committed suicide, and the people threw a coup and decided they would kill all the priests and the saintess. The people believe the goddess turned her back on them so why should they continue to worship a goddess that is killing them?

Well, Evelyn now admits she fucked up. She then told the demon that if given the chance to do everything again, she was confident she would succeed in becoming empress.

And that is how we get to the second timeline - the current one.

In the current one she changed a few things. She took on a more active role to try and ruin the empress. Remember the sister-in-law and the Empress' friend? She also blackmailed Count Hazel so that he would adopt her. And then, to make her validity as saintess stronger, she had the demon or the high priest, remove the saintess mark on Anastasia. She then used an artifact that would channel the priests divine power to her- this is how she is able to use divine power. And this is why people easily believed she was the saintess and the reason why Anastasia also believed she was the real one.

3. How is she exposed as a fake?

After Anastasia leaves the empire, she goes to live in a very remote town. Not sure how, but I think it's a combination of her praying to the goddess and also being far from the capital that made the saintess tattoo/mark reappear. She also heard the goddess' voice when she was praying (i think) and so she then realized that no, I'm not a fake, I'm actually the real saintess. So she goes back to the capital to try and expose everything.

She was away for quite sometime, I think it was a few weeks to a few months. All this time, emperor was being pressured to marry the saintess and fill the empress' empty seat but my boi was UNMOVING.

When Anastasia came back, she had a very emotional reunion with the emperor. They then basically told each other that they both heard the goddess' voice and believes that Evelyn is a fake.

In the coming days, Anastasia confronted the high priest. The high priest, feeling guilty and also knowing he had nowhere to go, decided to confess to everything. He was going to talk with the Empress. However, Evelyn found him first. They had a huge confrontation and Evelyn killed him. The empress was then framed for the high priests death. Evelyn thought this was a good thing, now the high priest was dead (no one will know their connection or know that the prophecy is fake) and everyone would probably assume the empress killed him since she would have a motive. However, most people believed the empress wouldn't be dumb enough to kill the high priest knowing she would be the first to be suspected.

After the high priests death, it was Count Hazel who was pressure to confess about everything. The emperor also was able to uncover information about the nun the high priest got pregnant. He knew about the fire that would caused the death of the nun and the child. They believed that Evelyn was not only a fake saintess but also that she was most likely not even the daughter of the high priest.

Evelyn then got a bit reckless and made some dumb decisions that ruined her good image.
That, coupled with Count Hazel's testimony that Evelyn blackmailed him and that before the debutant ball, the maids never saw the goddess mark on Evelyn's skin, and then the urging of the emperor and empress to try and purify Evelyn because they were suspicious that she was contracted with a demon - was the reason everyone found out that everything was just a lie.

Overall, a nice story. If I had one issue, it was never really explained if this was a book (like Anastasia a mentioned) or if she just relived her life a couple of times and the book that she though she read might have been just one of the many timelines. It was never explained why Anastasia was evil before she remembers about the book. What was the book even? If Anastasia is the real saintess, then doesn't that mean the book was wrong? So many questions that were never answered in the end.

I think I missed a few things but I think I've convered most of the major stuff that happens in the later part of the book.
