Secret Love Affair between a Former Saint and a Dark Hero
Kim Jiyeon, a student on leave leading an ordinary life, finds herself transmigrated into the romance novel, ‘The Saint’s Flower,’ that her friend had shown her.
Within the novel that she had read only halfway through, there was a girl named Iora. The romantic world of the saintly heroine and the male hero was clearly not her own. Nonetheless, she believed she could find happiness because she had become a character in the novel, just like the protagonist.
However, everyone cast their hatred upon her, accusing her of being the tormenting villain and a fake holy virgin, Iora. So, once again, she was threatened with death. A sacrificial lamb for the sacred female protagonist, a villain deserving of punishment, but it wasn’t so.
Iora was, in fact, a true holy saint. Returning to the beginning through the blessing of the divine .
She had no family, no haters, no sainthood, no beloved fiancé, and no need for any of it. She would walk a different path.

The aduacity of this b*tch… omg my blood pressure

So does that mean she’s also stupid before she died and became Iora? It seemed like it had been days or weeks since she possessed the body, so she could have had enough time to study even just the bare minimum, but his father said that her score was so low. I also don’t like that she became a timid and submissive cry baby after becoming Iora. Is she an illegitimate daughter that’s why even the servants look down on her, and she can’t do anything about it?

They don’t use standardized testing in this setting and time period. Nobility are judged on their knowledge via how well they recite back the information to their teacher. Iora is meek and stuttersbecause she is physically abused by her family which is why she’s called stupid and embarassing.
Kataren
Gosh, the author did too good of a job handling Iora’s personality and mental trauma that she is subconsciously showing. This hits way too close to home but I can’t stop reading. Thanks for translating this story!

I truly have a deep loathing for people who act like this crown prince. He’s like a bystander who’s watching a person drown. He knows there’s a 50 50 chance they’ll die, but he’s banking on the off chance they’ll live. He’s fully capable of saving said person but as a bystander there’s always another bystander, he’s leaving it to them to notice and do something so he doesn’t have to insert himself.
(I also know saving a drowning person is deadly to the savior as well. But what if this person was on a boat full of experienced divers! Not only that he has things he could throw into the water as well!)
Yea you could say he has his reasons but what is stopping him from doing a wellfair check? What’s stopping him from planting a spy? Heck he could break into the house and see for himself, the family sure isn’t shy about abusing her at home. Isn’t he a prince with servants at his beck and call? Have them do something about it. There are so many options he could pick and yet he chooses to watch.
This sympathy speel of his just makes it so much more worse.
Kataren
🙃 Boy, I can’t wait to see you drown in regret. So many flags have already been raised that I happy count down the days until I see you cry like poor Iora has been crying. Translator, keep up the wonderful work!
Kataren
🥺😭 How many chapters of suffering are there?!
Kataren
Thank you for translating. Can’t wait to read more!
Also can’t wait to see somebody finally realize how bad of a condition Iora is in and does something about it! For goodness sake, she’s in a sinking ship without a life jacket. She seriously needs some help.
Elphie
Thank you for all the lovely comments you’ve left for this novel! The “revenge” part is going to be a lot more satisfying for the readers after going through all these chapters of suffering with Iora 🙃
Kataren
My pleasure! And thank you for choosing such a wonderful novel to translate! I’m thoroughly enjoying myself reading this story, the pain included. A story that lacks the compelling force to effect the reader is a boring story in my humble opinion. Besides with all the happy stories I’ve been reading, this one suits me nicely. I’m glad so far it’s not an ML torturing the FL type, I’m normally not a fan of those. Anyways, can’t wait to read more!
Kataren
I gasped as well! Ah, this cliffhanger is Criminal! Please be who I think it is. Anyways, thanks for the chapter! 🫡
Kataren
Did he notice. Please tell me he noticed. He can’t be that blind right. It just had to be another criminal cliffhanger.
Thanks for the chapter! 🫡

I was not expecting poison to be brought up. The family is already slowly killing her, so it must be Ms snake. Aka the ogfl. I swear, her name I always miss read as anaconda, so Ms snake is perfect. 🫠
Anyways thanks for the chapter!
Kataren
Although I am disappointed some things remained unmentioned, it was a nice and sweet chapter to cut through all the bitter.
As always, thanks for the chapter!
armaghan beigzadeh
F*ck no
armaghan beigzadeh
Yeah I’m so glad he’s not the Male lead
Kataren
This chapter inspires several varying opinions which I shall keep to myself seeing as how bias they are. All I’ll say is, Mr would be ML, I got my eye on you. 🙃
As always, thanks for the chapter!
Kataren
Environment makes or breaks a person, and most of the time, its unfortunately the latter. I hope she can leave as soon as possible.
Thanks for the chapter!

This is getting annoying. I hate that she has everything going against her. I almost wanna slap her myself and tell her to wake up, then drag her away from this sh!thole.

I think I will drop it here, this girl is just stupid: “‘Arcanda will understand if I explain. I’m sure of it.” Anyone in her place would have understand this girl is trying to trap her, especially after the dress and wine incident.

Good, the first 60 chapters were a bit depressing, but after that it begins paying off.
Nana Nano
Kinda confused is she still og iora? Bc I thought jiyeon isn't that fragile. I get it if she still taken aback with the enviroment it's not so jiyeon character imo so i kinda thought it's og iora????
Pocket Bunny
It could be that or something similar. It seems like she doesn’t have complete control of her body. I don’t know. Maybe a soul issue?
I get stressed when I see our FL being trampled on at every turn. If it goes on too long, then I end up wanting to burn it all down.
