Synopsis:
Following thorough deliberation and careful preparation, Kashimiya Tsukasa makes the heart-wrenching choice to take his life for the sake of his family. Yet, instead of entering the afterlife, his vision clears to reveal scenes of torment and suffering… all caused by his own actions?! After regaining his senses, he realizes he has been reborn into the universe of his beloved novel—not as a hero, but as the malicious Duke Heinreid von Rodvelia.
Tormented by recollections of the duke’s abhorrent actions, he pledges to make amends for the terrible things he himself did not commit. However, his alteration in character quickly raises the suspicions of Craig Bauer, Heinreid’s devoted knight, who is the one destined to kill him in the original story. Craig’s attention shifts into fixation, and as their destinies entwine, the plot of the novel starts to warp around them. Will Heinreid end up pierced through by the depth of Craig’s sword, betrayed? Or can even the most loathsome duke discover a purpose to continue existing beyond the final chapter, newly transformed into a gentle and noble being?
