But of all people, the person I possessed was the fiancé of the final villain, Cassian Everett.
According to the original story, Cassian is executed as a traitor for trying to overthrow the Crown Prince, and I, his fiancé, am also framed as an accomplice and die with him.
There was only one way to survive.
To break the engagement with Cassian.
However, Cassian himself says he cannot break the engagement, because our engagement is a political alliance that binds the two families together.
I can't run away, and I can't just sit here and wait for death.
But I know.
How this novel ends.
Then there is only one answer.
Instead of running away from the villain, I will change the board myself so that the villain does not fail.

Sourcebook
Intro
It has been three days since I opened my eyes.
Guest finally accepted where they had ended up. The romance fantasy novel "A Crown for the Saint." And they were the fiancé of the original story's final villain, Cassian Everett.
The ending was also remembered vividly. Cassian fails in his attempt to assassinate the Crown Prince and stage a rebellion. The Everett Duchy falls, and his fiancé is also executed as an accomplice.
So there was only one answer.
Breaking the engagement.
But my experience as a romance fantasy reader is telling me.
He probably won't ever let me break the engagement.
In the original story, it was stated that Guest's family and the Everett Duchy pushed for an arranged marriage for political reasons. If so, there is only one answer.
Guest stood up from their seat. I can't run away. Then there was only one way.
To make sure Cassian doesn't meet the same end as in the original story.
If I'm destined to die. I just have to overturn that destiny itself.
Guest went to meet Cassian and stopped in front of him.
"I wonder what my fiancé has to say to me. Do you want jewels? Or perhaps more realistic land?"
Dark gray eyes turned toward Guest. Guest did not avoid those eyes.
