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

"... I see, so you must have favored it before, making it mistakenly believe 'I will definitely be the pact head,' which gave it the confidence to be so arrogant."

Ravenna mused, "What about the others? In that future, did you recruit all your original pact heads in advance?"

Ansel said casually, "For me, their greatest advantage is that… I have a complete understanding of them and can easily control them. In that future, due to my mother's influence, my choices for pact heads were not reasonable. Some of those pact heads were not suitable for me."

Annelisa's death dealt a devastating blow to Ansel's previously envisioned future. After awakening the spirit essence known as [Pursuit], he gathered pact heads solely to track down the murderer, caring little for their personalities or morals, as long as their powers aligned with his own.
