There's 27 chapters so far. I was looking for slop to pass the time but this was actually really enjoyable. I thought it would be another typical revenge fantasy story where the saintess earns money but nope. Not at all.

There's actually a lot of >!spooky panels that caught me off guard!<. That's not a major spoiler, but I just want y'all to experience it yourselves. Though, I may just be overly praising it.

I don't think the world is the typical OI setting either. The world is full of (basically) cultists, and the FL is one of the saintesses. She's trying very hard to escape but she gets killed each time and goes back to where she started regardless of how long it's been. She doesn't go insane either, she just keeps trying to escape to a different location because the novel ends with the ML destroying the empire then offing himself

Also I think it's important to note that in the earlier chapters, we don't see in the FL's POV. What we see, she doesn't and what she sees, we don't. She doesn't see the ghosts or the hauntings. The ML isn't a duke either, he's someone who's about to be a count. ML also sees and hears ghosts but FL doesn't, if they hold hands he's in peace.

Spoilers:

>! The FL resets only after the ML is dead. Whatever happens to her, she will experience her death (witch burning, beheading, drowning, etc.) until she draws her last breath, then she will reset when the ML dies. The ML resets when he dies, and his reset point is different each time. It could be a year, 15 years, or right when he was still a baby !<

>! The ML finds out he's in a novel btw, the FL tells him cuz he was curious why she was sociable when she was raised in an attic alone. They didn't dwell on it for too long though, but I suspect they will later on !<
