The Saint’s die-hard fans are always trying to drag her off her pedestal and into a romance, so there’s a love-triangle standoff at every turn.
Saint Tong Yiyi: Romance? A love-triangle standoff? Excuse me, I have work to finish so I can go home and read novels.
In one sentence: In an age when people worship the gods with fervor, the laid-back Saint Tong Yiyi is a little out of step with the times.
(The heroine puts on an act in the first few chapters. She’s laid-back and sees through things without saying so. As a saint, she’s a perfect charlatan, and she thinks she’s weak when she’s actually very strong. The opening chapters lay the groundwork; later, the worldbuilding and plot unfold. Little angels, don’t panic when you spot a plot hole. It might be foreshadowing.)

Tong Yiyi transmigrates into a world of swords and magic, and somehow becomes a saint.
Tong Yiyi thinks she might as well settle into being a saint. The gods are pretty good to her and answer her prayers every time.
In her fifth year as a saint, the Church grows stronger and stronger, much to the prince’s displeasure.
The prince sends a magical beast to seduce her, but luckily, the gods expose his scheme.
After that, the Sage, the Child of Light, and the Lord of the Abyss all come looking for her.
Tong Yiyi curses: “That lousy prince! When will he quit? Stop sending people to seduce me!”
The prince: “I didn’t! It wasn’t me! And I don’t like them clinging to you, either...”

Reader’s guide:
1. The Saint’s die-hard fans want to fall in love every day, so there’s a love-triangle standoff at every turn. Expect all kinds of possessive, obsessive, yandere, darkened, and loyal puppy-dog types.
2. The heroine is laid-back and carefree. She treats being a saint like an easy, secure job, and just wants to clock out, go home, read novels, and eat snacks. She has no interest in romance.
3. This is an otome-style wish-fulfillment story, and it unapologetically embraces its Mary Sue tropes. Everyone has a one-sided crush on the heroine. There are no evil female rivals. Let’s have the villainess girls get together instead, please.
The heroine may be a lazy fish, but she has a Mary Sue aura. Even a lazy fish can be a Mary Sue, trust me.
4. There’s an overarching plot and storyline, but no male lead has been decided. The heroine just wants to laze around but is forced to travel. Character appearances and screentime depend on the readers’ requests. This clueless author will try to treat everyone equally, though popular characters may get extra scenes. Pick your stock, pick your stock. You can keep changing your mind (crossed out).
5. Also known as: The Lazy Saint’s Love-Triangle Standoff; The Lazy Saint Struggles Through a Love-Triangle Standoff
6. Western fantasy setting with piles of authorial inventions. Don’t overthink it.
7. The original blurb was written on November 27, 2019.
8. There’s a completed wish-fulfillment novel in my collection: The Villainous System Struggling Through a Love-Triangle Standoff
Theme: Strive to grow through adversity and become independent and self-reliant
The ending is too casual, in sharp contrast to the detailed and lengthy previous parts, and many parts are not explained clearly. . . Disappointment
In fact, the foreshadowing at the beginning of this book is too long. It is assumed that the heroine is strong, but in fact the heroine herself is unconscious, so there is no sense of satisfaction. Moreover, the emotional scenes are not that detailed, so the Shura scenes are a bit far-fetched, including the thoughts of the male and female protagonists, which are all hasty. Is it just because the heroine was the goddess of life thousands of years ago?
I've finished reading it, and the ending is not as I expected.
Finished punching in... I feel that the rest of the writing is not interesting, there is too much foreshadowing in the early stages.
Ah, I guessed wrong, it turns out he is the pervert.
... Ah, this... Is it over?
It feels a bit unfinished (?_?|||)
Good looking! Norse mythology is still written by relatively few people. I really like the plot designed by the author.
Why do you feel like it's so messed up?
I've clocked in, I've clocked in... I see that I'm still in a daze all the time, hahahaha
