I possessed a romance novel where the male lead is a hero who defeats the demon king.
But wait—
the male lead is completely my type.
So I successfully proposed to him and even got engaged…
Then, on the long-awaited day of my coming-of-age ceremony, I heard a bolt-from-the-blue revelation.
“Me…? I’m the hidden villain?”
My fiancé is the male lead and a knight of the Demon Subjugation Order.
Does that mean I’m destined to be executed by my own fiancé…?
I planned to break things off cleanly and run away before my inevitable death.
But I ran into an unexpected obstacle.
Having failed to prepare an excuse, I blurted out the first thing that came to mind.
“Let’s break off the engagement.”
“I won’t agree unless you give me a reason that satisfies me.”
“My family has gone bankrupt.”
The very next day, a letter arrived stating that half of the Ludwig family fortune would be granted to my house.
Left with no choice, I came up with another excuse.
“Actually… I’m terminally ill.”
Two days later, he returned after picking a legendary herb said to cure all diseases.
Oh—and he even brought an elixir of immortality as a bonus.
There was no helping it. I squeezed my eyes shut and said:
“Actually, there’s someone else.”
“…Who is he?”
“God.”
His eyes gleamed ominously.
At this rate, he looks ready to kill even a deity…
So…
Can I actually break off this engagement?
