Please dont be like empress maria, please

LMAOOO that’s such a “waste novel” lmaoo yeah im gonna save the girl whom i love deeply oh wait let me imprison her and force her to brutal menial labor and surround her with enemies who’ll harm her at a moments’ notice
Let me also punish at any chance she gets or she gets rowdy so I can instill self confidence back into the woman I love
God what a complete idiot

He's truly a cosmic eldritch horror, isn't he? He's not showing his human face directly to her for a reason and he probably erased her memories because she was almost successful in escaping but failed at the last moment. The fact that she calls him a bastard, I wonder if that marriage is a forced one hmmm

I have read this on artlapsa and the manga uses the brainwashing trope. It's implied that the ML has been brainwashed by the saint. He reincarnated along with the MC ten times. He is sane for a short time after regression but loses his consciousness each cycle, and only manages to snap out of it during MC's execution and repeats the cycle.
I suggest to read this as mystery rather than romance.
