Description
When I woke up after being sick all night and day, I had arrived in a completely different world. The book , which I read to the end just because my favorite character was there, is inside a world that, the title alone, gives a feeling of being pure devastation and chaos. My favorite, from the book I picked to read only because I liked his face on the cover, was a mad prince wielding bloody tyranny. I transmigrated into a nameless extra monster hunter who lived in a village constantly invaded by monsters. The monster hunters have low status and are unable to enter the capital city. However, even if there was an occasion to meet, it would be best to avoid the mad prince. “If I don’t! Have a favorite! I! I can’t read! This book! Till the end! Arghhh!! Ella spent a hard three years crying that she wanted to see her favorite, but with a contradictory feeling that she never should meet him. That was until a man, who headshot Ella with a perfect face fit to her picky tastes to the point of making her forget all about her favorite, appeared. *** “That man…e” “That man? Are you talking about the Noblemen? Why that person?” “Too…..” “Too?” Handsome. Ella, managed to swallow her last words and let out a breath, which she didn’t even know had stopped.

My Thoughts on My Duke Won’t Die!
"My Duke Won't Die!" definitely grabbed my attention with its quirky premise and tags. A transmigration story with a focus on comedy and a strong female lead? Yes, please! Diving in, I found a story that offered a refreshing spin on familiar tropes.
First Impressions
The initial chapters were a whirlwind of monster hunting, eccentric characters, and a healthy dose of humor. I was immediately drawn to Ella, the female lead. She's not your typical damsel in distress; she's a capable, no-nonsense monster hunter who isn't afraid to speak her mind, even to nobles. The dynamic between her and the "girlish" Duke promised to be interesting, and I wasn't disappointed.
What Works Well
The character dynamics are a huge strength of this novel. Ella's unconventional personality and the Duke's shyness create a delightful contrast that fuels much of the comedy. I particularly enjoyed how Ella remained true to herself, never sacrificing her personality to appease societal expectations. The side characters are also well-developed and integrated into the story, making the world feel richer and more believable. What I also appreciated was how the story didn't rely on tired tropes like love triangles or forced romantic drama. The romance, though slow-burn, felt organic and natural, growing out of the characters' interactions and shared experiences.
Areas of Concern
While the novel excels in many areas, one aspect that felt slightly underdeveloped was the prejudice against monster hunters. While mentioned, the reasons behind this prejudice weren't fully explored, leaving me wanting more context and depth.

It's a breath of fresh air in the transmigration genre, thanks to its strong characters, witty humor, and focus on genuine connection. While the world-building could be a bit more detailed, the strengths of the story far outweigh its weaknesses. If you're looking for a lighthearted fantasy romance with a strong female lead and a unique dynamic, this novel is definitely worth checking out.
