Frankly, I hadn't come here to cause trouble or make enemies. My sole goal was to take advantage of Duke Demetrius, the man I could currently benefit the most from among the dukes in the empire.
Besides, even if I felt the original owner of this body's emotions for the first time somewhere deep inside... I don't have time to deal with him. Who am I to preoccupy myself with a mere duchy? I cannot risk destroying everything I've built for the sake of a nebulous and unpredictable revenge that isn't even truly mine.
Of course, thinking about it now, I genuinely do know a way to destroy this duchy. After rising alongside the Crown Prince and supporting him, I could somehow manipulate him into confronting Duke Demetrius. And when the Crown Prince, just like in the novel, is crowned Emperor in the not-too-distant future, he will destroy the Duchy.
