Description
I found myself in the failed novel I wrote, in a position where I had to kill the villain and my favorite character, the Grand Duke. I tried my best, thinking there was no choice if I wanted to survive…… “Slow. Too light and weak.” Kaiel’s hands tightly gripped Delia’s wrists, which were holding the dagger. “To stab properly, you should have aimed here. Again.” It was another failure. He even blatantly gave me a chance, but my resolve to kill him crumbled like the wind. “……Let me go.” “No.” Soon, his large hand gently pressed down on Delia’s back.As a result, she collapsed helplessly onto his broad chest.He pulled her completely into his embrace.The more she struggled, the deeper she was pulled into him. “Is today’s attempt over? Then sleep here.”“……I want to go. Let me go.”“It’s an order.” He patted her back a couple of times as if to soothe her.Along with a low whisper in her ear. “Good night, Delia.” He held her tightly, making it impossible to escape, rough yet infinitely warm.……This is a big problem. ‘At this rate, I can’t kill you!’ The more my feelings grew, the less I could stay by his side.So I ran away. To distance myself from him. “Bring her back.”“But Miss is already in the palace…….”“Immediately……!” What should I do with these feelings that have grown uncontrollably?

My Thoughts on Grand Duke, I Like You, But Please Die!
I dove into "Grand Duke, I Like You, But Please Die!" expecting a fun, lighthearted read with a dash of angst, and for the most part, that's what I got. The premise alone, with its European ambience and a system administrator transmigrating into a novel, had me hooked. It promised a blend of genres that I often find irresistible, and initially, it delivered.
First Impressions
The beginning was definitely charming. I enjoyed the comedic elements and the initial dynamic between the female lead (FL) and the Grand Duke (ML). There's a certain appeal to the "I have to kill you, but I also kind of like you" trope when it's done well. The world-building was engaging, and I appreciated the hints of a larger, more complex story lurking beneath the surface.
What Works Well
The Grand Duke himself is a compelling character. His patience and understanding, even in the face of the FL's… well, let's just say unique decision-making process, are admirable. He carries a certain weight and depth that made me genuinely invested in his well-being and hoping for a satisfying resolution to his predicament. The comedic moments were genuinely funny, and the author does a good job of sprinkling them throughout the story to keep the tone relatively light, despite the rather morbid central premise.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue lies with the female lead. While I initially found her charming, that charm started to wear thin as the story progressed. Her naivety sometimes veered into frustrating territory, and I found myself questioning her decision-making abilities. The constant back-and-forth between being lovey-dovey with the Grand Duke and then panicking about having to kill him became repetitive and, at times, contradictory. I struggled with her lack of accountability for her actions and the way she seemed to crumble under pressure when faced with the consequences of her choices. Her indecisiveness, while perhaps meant to be comedic, ultimately detracted from my enjoyment of the story.
Final Verdict
"Grand Duke, I Like You, But Please Die!" is a mixed bag. While it boasts a compelling male lead, a fun premise, and genuinely funny moments, the female lead's character arc and decision-making can be frustrating. If you're looking for a lighthearted read with a forgiving approach to character flaws, this might be for you. However, if you prefer your protagonists to be consistently competent and accountable, you might find yourself struggling to connect with the FL. Overall, I'd say it's worth a try, but be prepared for a potentially bumpy ride.
