0 – Prologue
In a room separate from the other rooms in the count’s house.
The interior was shabby beyond being thrifty, unlike a count’s family, but it was a clean room with not a single speck of dust visible, perhaps because it was carefully maintained.
This is the room I’ve lived in most of my life.
“···Everyone seems to be busy today too.”
“Brother…”
Still, I asked you to visit me today.
I wrote letters and visited with my body that couldn’t move well anymore, but my family and my one and only ex-fiance didn’t seem to have any intention of visiting me because he was busy with work.
Well, even if it were me, I didn’t think it would come to me like an abandoned child who only did stupid things.
“Mr… Mr. Ryeon…”
“Why are you crying. Don’t cry.”
The only person next to me was Stella, the maid who had been by my side since childhood.
How are you going to live in this harsh world from now on with so many tears?
“I’m going to die, but why are you doing this?”
“Ahhhhh!”
Uh… I was told to stop crying, but it seems to have had the opposite effect.
Seeing Stella burying her face in my bed, crying even louder, I felt pity.
I was worried about how I would work in the future if I died since I was Stella, who had been in charge of me in the count’s family since I was young.
As I just said, I’m going to die soon.
The reason… To protect the main character? Wouldn’t it be comfortable to think of that?
It was a cliché development of common fantasy novels.
I didn’t think I would ever go through a situation like this novel myself.
I literally possessed a medieval magic academy novel that I can’t even remember the title of, and the person I possessed was the fiancé of the main character.
That’s not just a fiancée, but a fiancée who is a mischievous and mischievous fiance.
By the time I realized that this place was in a novel, I had already played all kinds of pranks like in the original novel.
I realized it belatedly and tried to rehabilitate, but even if I had the mindset to rehabilitate, there was no way to get back my image that had already fallen.
I tried my best to do good deeds, but everyone belatedly thought that I was managing my image, but no one believed in my sincerity.
Only Stella, who had always been by my side ever since I was young, recognized my sincerity, but it was already too late to change other people’s hearts.
So, in order to atone for Adele, the fiancée suffering from chronic illness in the original work, I absorbed Adele’s chronic illness through the absorption of the inherent magical power of Lian Kindred, whom I possessed, and the result was this situation in which she is now dying. .
Isn’t this enough to apologize for the pranks and wrongs you’ve done to Adele?
‘I hope it becomes an apple.’
Of course, neither Adele nor her family knows this, and only Stella knows.
Still, it was better not to know.
I didn’t want you to realize this and feel uncomfortable because of me.
Beep-
Is the time running out? I started to hear ringing in my ears that I couldn’t hear.
Feeling that my time was running out, I left my last words to Stella, who was the only one by my side.
“I had a hard time living with such a sickly owner… Stella…”
“Don’t say that… I’d rather be healthy even if you make me feel bad…”
“You’re too nice to wear…”
My kind and caring maid did it for me even though I teased and teased her so much when I was young.
Seeing Stella like that, I was able to smile and close my eyes.
“Don’t worry… I’ll see… Soon…”
I wonder if the warm feeling on my forehead along with Stella’s muttering that I heard at the last moment is an illusion that I feel before I die.
So, I died.

“···”
I should have died.
Why am I waking up from bed with such a stupid expression?
“hahahaha…”
Anyway, I seem to have fallen victim to a common novel cliché again.
