——————
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

Miss puppet glanced at Ansel, who seemed to have asked the question casually rather than with any particular intention.

After a brief silence, Ravenna, gazing at the lively streets, softly replied, "The transformation of the world is akin to… the ascension of extraordinary beings, seeing more possibilities and wielding greater power."

"An interesting description," Ansel raised his eyebrows slightly, "Though somewhat abstract, well… I understand your point. To use transcendence to extend countless possibilities for society, improving its 'quality' so that individuals within it can lead prosperous lives, is essentially what you mean, right?"

When Ansel elaborated on her words, Ravenna found herself uncertain, the abstract and broad concept had felt solid to her, but this clear and concise explanation left her unsure how to respond.
