The reviews all had high ratings, so I gave this story a try. Well that's some low quality writing, made me remember my own school work.For comedic purpose, after MC got threatened by ML to be whipped, have his limbs cut off and be burned, he speaks normally to the ML, as if nothing happened. I don't find the MC cute and funny, but dumb. I don't think "oh the ML is a yandere, he'll fall hard, it's so cute", but "what a psycho". The original MC is indifferent to anything that happens, has no thoughts about good/evil/what's appropriate and watch without an opinion; I just thought the author forgot to give him a personnality now that he's only an extra.To push the story where the author wants it, ML takes his coton doll to the Emperor without any thoughts/preparations. I'm supposed to accept that an intelligent being, ruling over a territory didn't anticipate what could happen if he took a living doll to see an emperor? An archduke can't anticipate someone thinking it's weird for a grown adult to take his doll with him? I suppose that's for comedic purpose and I shouldn't roll my eyes.So, the author has a story to tell, they didn't give the characters real personnalities or give them basic logic because that would clash with the plot. So everybody seem dumb and unpredictable without a lick of common sense or brain power.I'd have enjoyed this story when I was a teenager and I didn't care about anything but the plot. Unfortunately for this novel I'm older and only see the lack of thoughts given in its writing.
