The Villainess Captured The Grand Duke

My favorite novel character died.

After being abandoned by the heroine, he lost his emotions and could no longer use his abilities. While he was weakened, the North collapsed. The novel depicts a happily ever after for the main characters, without even bothering to confirm the location of his body.

I’ve possessed the villainess, Scheuer, and decided that I’d rather he gets his emotions back before meeting the heroine, so I headed North.

“Duke, would you hold my hand? Or perhaps give me an autograph. I promise to keep it as an heirloom.”

“If you want my autograph, then the Lady should also sign here.”

“What’s this?”

“A marriage registration form.”

Pardon?

“Just like right now… the Lady’s behavior makes me feel nervous.”

…Do I possibly have a chance?
