The story follows a girl who possesses the body of a 5-year-old Saintess. She is terrified of ghosts—more than bugs—yet the system forces her to perform exorcisms. Failure brings her closer to death.

A New Web Novel About a Saintess Who Fears Ghosts
The work launched directly as an original web novel on Kakao Page. Author Portia describes the protagonist as a "5-year-old cowardly baby Saintess." She hates ghosts more than insects, but the system demands she resolve the grudges of the dead. Failure means death draws nearer.
The official synopsis highlights the irony: becoming a Saintess is fine, but why must she perform exorcisms? The ghosts in this romance fantasy are genuinely terrifying rather than cute. Forced to exorcise in order to survive, she becomes entangled with the Crown Prince who is supposed to kill her in the future. The prince himself is easily possessed—including by a "Casanova" spirit.
Romance Fantasy World with Light Horror Elements
The setting is a fantasy novel world where a Saintess's duties include driving out spirits. The protagonist, driven by fear of death, must face frightening ghosts. Her interactions with the Crown Prince add romantic and comedic layers, including scenes after she successfully removes a spirit that had latched onto him.
The official cover shows a silver-haired girl with purple eyes wearing an elegant white aristocratic dress, holding an orange-and-white cat. The background is a nighttime cathedral with candles, pink roses, and several cute cartoon ghosts. The fioret logo appears in the upper corner.
Why This Matters
- A Saintess who is terrified of ghosts
The premise "I hate ghosts more than bugs" creates strong comedy of contrast within the romance fantasy genre.
- A system that forces survival
Failure at exorcism brings the threat of death, so the protagonist's actions are driven by pure fear rather than heroism.
- Entanglement with a dangerous Crown Prince
The male lead who is destined to kill her and is himself easily possessed creates an ironic romantic dynamic.
- Cute cover paired with light horror
The sweet, gothic-cute cover contrasts with the story's emphasis on genuine fear of ghosts.
