Born into a distinguished family yet possessing no spiritual power, Suzu is scorned as a “useless nameless girl.” Forced to taste-test her half-sister Hinako’s meals for poison, her body is constantly eroded by curses—her daily life nothing but suffering. But during the Miko Selection Rite, everything changes. One of the divine beings, the Azure Dragon, chooses Suzu not as a shrine maiden… but as his one and only fated partner—a role far above that of any miko. A cold, terrifying high-ranked god × A mistreated, nameless girl. An exquisite Japanese-style Cinderella fantasy begins. **Original Web Novel:** [Kakuyomu](https://kakuyomu.jp/works/16817330661293133476), [Syosetu](https://ncode.syosetu.com/n2311if/) [Original Web Serialization](https://www.ganganonline.com/title/2448)
