The most hated character

In a novel, there is always a character that readers hate the most. And in the book 'The Priestess' Shadow', it was Seravina Araneae Bleiz. Despite not being the main antagonist, she is the most hated character of the novel--and she loves it. It made her think that her role was effective.

Aware of the readers' thoughts and comments, it was a hobby of hers to read their hate speech about her. Not until for the first time, she received a compliment from a reader.
