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

"So... I am truly pitiful," Marlina sighed softly.

"Even with utmost effort, even with Mr. Ansel's assistance, just the offer of this condition makes my heart waver... If there were no other choice, I would agree, even if it meant burning all my efforts to ashes."

She looked at Nerilia and softly said, "To regard someone like me, who is so vastly different from you, with such esteem, I am deeply grateful, Lady Nerilia."

Nerilia's offer was essentially a gamble for Marlina.

If Marlina could, under such uncertain circumstances, establish a vast network of control in the Western Lands using only the name "Faust," enabling Ansel to easily make changes, such an achievement would be sufficient for her to request a method to attain extraordinary status from Ansel.

But is this really so easy to achieve? Would Ansel continue to provide such crucial support as he does today? Everything remains uncertain.
