I was curious about what a female-oriented tragic romantic fantasy was like, so I skimmed through only the free chapters.
And then…
“…Ha.”
I found myself transmigrated into one of the main male characters, destined for tears of regret, exhaustion, and obsession.
So, the first thing that had to be done was…
“I, Elden Raphelion, hereby declare my withdrawal from the competition for the betrothal of the Third Northern Duchess.”
To escape this tragedy.



The story showed potential but ended up being more irritating than anything else. With only one chapter, the progression of the relationship between the characters feels too rapid, coming off as unrealistic and insincere throughout. It also lacked charm—it wasn't even cute! There isn't enough depth to truly understand or connect with the characters, leaving no room for emotional development. You won't find yourself relating to them, nor will you genuinely care about their journey.
That said, the artwork is decent. It's not exceptional, but it holds its own. There's not much else to elaborate on here since there's so little substance to discuss. It might have been a pleasant read under different circumstances, but ultimately, it falls short. If you're bored and looking for something casual, you could give it a try, but don't expect much.

I realize events were fast-tracked, but this was a charming short story meant to be enjoyed as a single, concise piece. It wasn't intended to be stretched into ten chapters filled with angst. ♥

Furthermore, the protagonist's motivations are unclear and frustratingly underdeveloped. Despite knowing her ultimate objective, the specifics of her revenge-driven plan feel forced and lack depth. As the heroine's drive is central to the story, this flaw significantly undermines the overall experience.
Despite some enjoyable aspects, these shortcomings prove too substantial for me to continue reading.
Nonetheless, this ambiguity adds an element of suspense, making Elden believe he's safe as long as he keeps his distance (and he does). My main critique lies in the one-dimensional portrayal of the villains other than Elden, though this may change as I've only read up to about twenty chapters.
In "TitRF," the protagonist finds himself transmigrated into a villain competing to marry the future duchess. As the story progresses, we learn that the duchess, who attended school under an alias, endured abuse from the other contestants. She devised this competition as a form of retaliation, subjecting them to trials replicating her suffering.
However, this central premise lacks logic. The requirement for the duchess to marry one of them doesn't seem reasonable, and there's no explanation for her willingness to participate despite her trauma. The author even depicts her ongoing nightmares and PTSD, making the idea of marrying one of her abusers even more baffling.
This central theme drives the story's progression and impacts its development, but it fails to hold water. The author, to some extent, seems aware of the illogical nature of the plot. There's an "advisor" character attempting to understand the situation, but without a solid foundation, the rest of the events feel disconnected and purposeless.
While I'm open to overlooking minor inconsistencies, this core issue is fundamental to the story's structure, rendering many aspects feel hollow and meaningless.
另一个有趣之处在于,作者巧妙地颠覆了“我穿越成小说角色”的常见设定。主角并不伪装成Elden,也未试图弥补过去的错误,他只是一个努力生活的忙碌上班族。他的性格没有突变,也没有像其他小说那样突然对达到巅峰产生狂热,他只是在过自己的生活,而他与他人的互动十分逗趣。
配角女性角色也非常抢眼,她们在故事中占据了可观的篇幅。总的来说,尽管这部小说的节奏相对较慢,有些人甚至会认为它有点拖沓,但它仍然是一本引人入胜的读物,我强烈推荐。
