My Villainess Ex Won't Leave Me Alone (And I'm Fine With It)

Starting a forbidden relationship with the duke's daughter was the most reckless thing Lucian had ever done in his life.

Up until now, his only risks were hunting rare saplings from dangerous places.

Now, he was breaking the nobles' rules.

And it backfired, horribly. Not once, not twice, not thrice but multiple times. He almost died once, lost a few friends, fled his homeland, and then almost died again, but here he was, not really learning.

"So dumb," the devil voice in his head whispered in disdain, "How more idiotic can you get?"

"As far as idiocy goes deep," Lucian answered, accepting the new path of his life, "And it goes deep. And wide."

Goal: get wealthy and powerful enough to afford more idiocy

Current arsenal: blood, sweat, tears, and pure wits

Start point: gardener

End point: unknown

A/N: Based on otome romance novels, but from the second male lead's POV, who the heroine never chose. And no, the heroine isn't the duke's daughter.
