Saintess Ye Zheng, who possesses healing abilities, had just saved a supernatural special operations squad when the system suddenly informed her that this world was actually a comic.
Good news: She is the heroine of the comic.
Bad news: She is the universally despised heroine whom countless readers have petitioned the author to delete from the story.
She has beauty and healing powers, but her excessive saintly compassion repeatedly puts the protagonist team in danger. She is a universally disliked character who constantly brings trouble to the male lead.
Even the male lead and the villain’s CP is far more popular than her so-called official pairing.
【Yet another standard decorative heroine. Just a tool to pass review requirements.】
【There is actually a heroine in this comic? Dropped!】
【The character design is nice though. Author, give us more fanservice hehehe~】
【I am speechless. I just want to watch the guys fight. Why does a hot-blooded shounen comic need a girl?】
System: “The comic artist intends to abandon you. In the mid-to-late storyline, they plan to have you take a fatal blow for the male lead and exit tragically.”
“Only by reversing your popularity can you change the author and readers’ opinion and avoid a rushed removal.”
The delicate and beautiful healing-type saintess lowered her tear-filled eyes. “So everyone really… hates me that much.”
“But it is alright. I will do my best.”

“Lord of the Sinister Realm” is currently the most popular hot-blooded shounen comic.
Its gripping and eerie worldbuilding, passionate combat scenes, and characters with depth have created a cast of extremely popular two-dimensional idols.
The upright and cool male lead, the unhinged yet ambiguous second male lead, the noble and righteous third male lead…
However, in this male-oriented power-fantasy comic, the character who inspires the highest level of discussion on the forums is always that woman.
At first, she was the saintess who caused the entire team to fall into a demonic beast crisis because she tried to save a cat, once ranked as the single most hated character.
Later, readers discovered that she was actually a saintess driven insane by the Ability Church’s repression, a witch whose kindness had twisted into obsession. They could not help but be moved by her.
And later still, countless readers were shocked beyond belief: This woman has been acting all along?
She summoned a world-ending flood, stole the dragonbone that guarded the world, and brought disaster upon every person equally and without mercy.
Beneath Ye Zheng’s gentle and holy exterior lies nothing less than ruthless ambition and sharp cruelty.

【Did Ye Zheng appear today? I love this villainess female lead so much!】
【Sister Zheng, please go easy on the protagonist team. Do not hurt my precious one, sob sob sob.】
【Family, I’ve switched sides. Ye Zheng is too cool!】
【Trembling. Does anyone still remember when we all thought she was just a healing-type accessory character…】
【No more talking. I am switching allegiances. This dangerous woman is terrifying!】
Even the system was dumbfounded. Wake up! Your setting is to be a gentle and kind female lead for a male-oriented comic!
In response, Ye Zheng smiled gracefully. “Why can’t a villainous grand female lead also be the heroine?”
Reading Notes:
The heroine is the type whose righteousness becomes twisted into villainy.
- The inspiration for this story came from being unable to stand the way some hot-blooded shounen comics treat their token female characters.
- She starts off weak. The heroine will gradually become the strongest in the world.
