    The book's title is very straightforward, and the entire content matches the title perfectly. After realizing his predicament, the crown prince becomes incredibly reckless in his actions. Anyone who offends him is ruthless; he's willing to kill anyone, no longer hesitant or timid. Judging from the current content, it seems he'll have the heroine he's chosen unify the world, with the crown prince becoming her husband. The crown prince is going to destroy his own country, and his father will probably regret it immensely. Just thinking about it is incredibly exciting.
