——————
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

The competition for the position of the Head of Devouring is evidently a crucial juncture... That position is still too far from my reach, and I must not aim too high. However, it is essential to seize as much as I need from this struggle.

Simply staying in the office of Garden will yield nothing—therefore, even if Miss Rhine cancels the original plan, I must become Mr. Ansel's traveling secretary.

This is the only bargaining chip that allows me to negotiate with it.

As long as I can follow Mr. Ansel to the Western lands, whether it is to increase Miss Rhine's influence or to disclose Shadewell's actions to it, it is not an issue. Moreover, if I apply in my own name, it will not have any negative impact on Ms. Rhine.

The only problem is, how can I successfully apply in my own name...?

Without relying on the connection with Seraphina, Mr. Ansel has no reason to accept my application unless I can demonstrate sufficient value.
