Ansel of Hydral, the Empire's most notorious villain, devours a peculiar being known as a "Traveller". 
In doing so, he glimpses a future of despair, a foreordained future featuring a war-god who can shatter armies, a saint bearing great sins, a mage discerning the truth, and a heroine of unassailable morality... These formidable "she" would destroy his family, his empire, everything he holds dear.

Upon truly recognizing the cruelty and weight of fate, Ansel has an epiphany.

"If the Empire requires reform, then there is no need for a so-called protagonist. Armed with this knowledge, I can effect change far more efficiently."
"And as for you, the world's chosen ones..."
"If destiny dictates that you cannot be obliterated, then I have no option but to make you fall... fall with me to the very end of the abyss."

In essence, this is a tale of a villain rebelling against fate, taming the chosen daughters of heaven, all while orchestrating a transformative revolution in the world.

A Villain's Way of Taming Heroines

In the courtyard of the manor, Seraphina sat gently swaying on a swing, her eyes unfocused as they stared ahead, lost in thought.

Even though a day had passed since that conversation, it felt as if it had just occurred.

She tossed and turned in the dead of night, unable to comprehend why Ansel would not allow her to ascend to the throne of the third stage, and why he said that she did not need to become so powerful.

After much contemplation, the only conclusion Seraphina could draw was that her increased strength would bring trouble to Ansel. But if her future self was so formidable, wouldn't any trouble… be easily resolved?

If she were stronger than the empress, what trouble could she not solve in this world?

The young girl sulkily swayed on the swing, the occasional gust of cold wind unable to make her feel any chill.
