Sebastian Leodegrance was fated to bring about the world's end, his path irrevocably marked by the three scars etched across his left eye as proof of his unholy contract with Ardalas, the Evil God.

His insatiable thirst for power would have been enough to conquer all, even without the infernal blessing, but now not even the divine intervention of the Goddess could thwart his ambitions.

Was she truly as wise as they heard she was? 


When the quiet of the hall was disturbed by the scuff of a chair leg scraping against the floor, all eyes turned to behold their Empress standing boldly, heedless of the Emperor at her side.
