To celebrate his graduation and a new home, Xion Aijawa happily went to buy beer. There he saw a cat hanging from the tree. While saving the cat, Xion fell into the pit and...died. In his disoriented sate of "Freshly dead" the silly Xion accepted the request and ended up transmigrating into the world full of dungeons and Mana. He found himself surrounding with the step siblings who hates him and father who was planning to send him as a "Gift" to some aristocrat. Who made him look like a pretty doll? However, his face was the least of his worry at the moment. According to the memory of the original owner of the body, Xion knew he only had a month to live if he did not manage to escape. So, taking the cover of the banquet, Xion ran away. Aided by a mysterious System Mall that allows him to buy almost anything, he makes his way to the distant borderlands, hoping to put his past behind him. But fate has other plans---Xion ends up saving Darius Rael Drakhelm, the feared Archduke of the North, notorious for his ruthless and deranged nature. The silly Xion tried to run away but... Trapped on the Archduke's bed, Xion's heart thumped loudly when he saw Darius' smirk. The archduke towered over him as those fingers gently caressed Xion's cheek. "I've heard you tried to run away," Darius spoke. "That must be a lie... After all, I've given you things even the royal family can't have. Isn't that right, my dear healer?" Xion gulped when Darius's thumb brushed his lower lip, "I-I think I should leave. I've overstayed my welcome..." The room grew cold, and Xion shivered. He watched as Darius's green eyes dimmed before lighting up with a dangerous glint. Xion felt a pit growing in his stomach when he saw the deranged archduke smile. Darius never smiled. And whenever he did, it only meant trouble. "You're right," Darius said calmly. "So let's get married." Xion, "..." Help!!!!

After I suddenly died I possessed the body of what I thought was an extra within a novel. From then on my life was mostly calm, though not fulfilling. Until one day I discovered I wasn't just a background figure; instead I was an insignificant character who'd end up being the villainous Grand Duke's secretary, only to die shortly after being near him! But I had no choice, it was too late to change my fate, so I decided to live as obediently as possible under the orders of the sadist villain. But I still had a plan. Even before the female lead makes her appearance, I will try in every way to make the villain a little more normal, or at least ensure that the two do not meet, so that no one will face a harsh death, including me! And then, after the villain doesn't become obsessed with the female lead and becomes more normal, I will be able to resign and live peacefully. So I just cleared all the suspicions he might have about me in order to not incur his wrath and die like in the novel. * * * "I'll give you a choice." The corner of his lips raised crookedly. Though that smile did not reach his eyes at all. "One, don't resign and stay here forever..." His gaze was enough to unnerve me. "Two, let me kill those who dared to give you the idea of resigning...then don't go and stay here forever." No, haven't I already made sure that the villain has become a little more normal!? ...What the heck is going on!? He shouldn't be like this!
