   This is a novel featuring ten female protagonists, no romantic pairing, no system, no livestreaming, and ghost-hunting stories in short episodic format. The keywords alone tell you how high-quality it is, haha! It's not a filler story like those livestreaming ones, and there's no system or cheat code. The episodic stories are fantastic, and the author has genuinely consulted relevant literature, sometimes even including excerpts at the end. The only downside is: it's not finished! This story hasn't been seen by many, so there might not be much readership, which is why the author hasn't been updating daily. Hopefully, more readers will come and comment, and encourage more updates!

    It has to be a female sorceress! The author has a deep knowledge base; many details are based on historical sources, it's not just random writing. I've read many of her novels, "The Girl Who Devours Ghosts," and every single one is excellent. Reading novels can also increase your useless knowledge, so it's not a waste of time, haha.

    [Mind-blowing + Female-oriented + With a Couple] 🍄A wildly imaginative and incredibly entertaining story! 🍁She doesn't believe she'll become a real heiress! 🍁The plot is so outrageous, it's almost too much! 🍁Even more absurd, she encounters a ghost upon opening the door. 🍁Let whoever wants to be the villainous female supporting character be, but in the end, it turns out she's just a shared female supporting character! 🍁Fine, fine, if she doesn't learn some real skills, she won't be able to keep the plot from collapsing, huh! 🍓
