“You betrayed me in my first life… Now you kneel in my second.”

Ryouma Kazuki died a joke.

Betrayed. Forgotten. Used.

But death was only his beginning.

Reincarnated as Lucius Nachtveil, the final boss of a cursed fantasy world, he wakes up with power beyond logic—and a fate written in blood. Feared by all. Loved by none. Or so he thought...

Because something is wrong with this world.

The heroines who once betrayed him? Now obsessed with him.
The heroes who should slay him? Losing to him.
The gods who cursed him? Watching in silence.

His body is cursed. His heart is fractured. And his power grows the more he’s hated.

Yet no matter how cruel, cold, or chaotic he becomes...

They. Can’t. Leave. Him. Alone.

From yandere elf assassins to holy angels corrupted by lust, Lucius is surrounded by a harem he never wanted—and a destiny he refuses to follow.

But he’ll play their game.

He’ll become the villain. The tyrant. The monster.

And when the world begs for salvation...
They’ll find that only the devil can save them.

"Reincarnated as the Final Boss, But the Girls Won’t Let Me Die!"

A blood-red sun rose over the war-torn capital of Velgrath, a city that had once stood for honor, now ruled by fear.

Lucius stood on a cliff overlooking the city gates, cloak fluttering in the ash-filled wind. Behind him, the girls gathered like a team of very beautiful, very emotionally unstable Pokémon.

Claire looked nervous. Lilith looked angry. Zara looked like she was hoping for a bloodbath. Velda? Already munching on a mana biscuit.

"We're not here to start a war," Lucius said calmly. "We're here to take something back."

Zara cracked her knuckles. "Define 'something.'"

Lucius pointed toward the central cathedral glowing faintly with divine energy.

"Inside that building," he said, "is the last surviving shard of my soul. Sealed during the first betrayal."

Velda choked on her biscuit. "Wait—what?! There are soul shards now?!"

Lucius raised an eyebrow. "You think I'm this messed up with just one timeline?"

Mission Objective: "Retrieve the Tyrant's Soul Fragment"

Reward: +10 Tyrant Levels, +1 Hidden Trait, ???

As they descended into the city, Velda cast an illusion field over them, making the group look like traveling monks and one very cursed intern (Zara was not happy).

They slipped through the city gates unnoticed.

Inside the cathedral, the atmosphere shifted.

Holy light pulsed from every wall. Statues of the "Divine Order" lined the halls, their eyes glowing blue.

Claire started to tremble. "This place… it's sacred."

Zara spat. "It reeks of cowardice."

Lucius walked forward until he reached the altar.

Because someone else was already there.

A tall man in golden armor. Snow-white hair. Calm blue eyes.

A sword in one hand. A torn locket in the other.

"Well," Takeshi said, voice calm as frost, "you took your time."

Velda: "Okay but like… why is he hotter than you?"

Claire: "He gives off final boss energy, too…"

Lucius raised a hand. "No one interferes."

Takeshi stepped forward. "This ends here, Lucius. You were never meant to return."

"You really think I came this far just to stop here?"

His eyes glowed red. His aura exploded like a dying star.

"I'm not done until this world begs me to die."
