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.

Before he could finish his sentence, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened.

Ansel, who had been staying inside the Tower of Babel for the past few days, walked into the oppressive room with Seraphina. Facing the surprised or delighted gazes, he said softly, "Dear all of Bable, I sincerely apologize if I interrupted your proceedings. Originally, I hadn't intended to partake in your meeting. However, upon contemplating the matter, I realized it would be more beneficial to learn about your perceptions of the current circumstances and future flans."
