I Favor the Villainess

This is about the Dorothea-Nar perspective.

From a young age, I realized that I was different from others.

It didn't mean that I was connected to the Empire, it was simply a matter of ability.

Many people in the world were able or unable to do it in a few years, and I was able to do it in an instant.

Both academic and martial arts remained the same.

I was expected to be an emperor from a young age, and I took it for granted.

Many people will not know that it is boring to be able to do anything.

Everything was a waste of time for me.

I was convinced that I would succeed the empire eventually, but that conviction did not move my mind.

By the time I realized it, I was already tired of life.

Others will say it is a luxurious affliction.

But for the rest of us, the world was extremely boring.

It was the encounter with the demon king that changed everything.

……

The ministers died before my eyes one after the other.

And they that were weaker than the remnants sprinkled their lives to save the remnants.

There was nothing I could do.

The rest was too helpless.

"You won't kill me. If I kill you, history will change too much."

The demon king abandoned himself and left.

All that was left was countless remains and a foolish clown.

I was reminded of my fear.

And life from there was nothing but to eradicate that fear.

Ma, wait! What do you want!? Emperor, as soon as you grow up... "

I killed my father, my father.

When I was seven.

My father seemed to have intended to give up as soon as he was an adult, but he thought it was too late.

Faster, faster.

To defeat that demon king, you must create a mighty empire.

No, not just the Empire.

We will not be defeated by that calamity unless mankind comes together to confront it.

After that, we made strides to make the country bigger.

Repeated aggression, forcing humanity to unite.

I wonder if that was a way of being too aggressive.

No cause whatsoever can justify acts such as aggression.

I knew I had no justice.

Still, I thought we had to do it.

"Your Majesty, learn more about human pain. As it is, no one understands His Majesty."

That's how I preached every day of my life.

I don't need to understand.

All the rest is power.

Without power, nothing can be done.

Power was all that was left.

Then I realized that nobody else was around.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"You must be getting tired, too.

The Aristotle clan whispered like that in a harsh tone.

I wanted to close my mouth as soon as I could with all the bullshit I could hear.

"But well.... Honestly, I'm impressed. I can't believe you're still standing at this number."

When I was told to look around, there were countless monsters and demonic remains scattered around.

I don't know how many more I've slashed.

Still, there were still countless monsters and demons in front of me.

"Why don't you give up? No matter how hard you force it, it's reckless of you to take this number."

That's true.

There were only more people standing around.

It seems that all the soldiers of His Majesty's army left behind and passed away earlier.

I don't think I can amputate all the raiders by myself.

But not yet.

We can't fall yet.

"Oh dear... I can't help it. I'll take it personally. Give me the honor."

"It's not funny how you sacrifice a lot of men."

Hold the sword.

My regular double sword was spilled everywhere, but I didn't break it and fought here.

Show me a little more patience.

Fuuuuu!

Exhale sharply and fill the gap with the demons.

Whether this is Dorothea the Sword God stepping in or not, it is too slow for me to be surprised.

Even when I fought a battalion of Susie, it didn't wear out this much.

Hopefully, I think the rest of the battle is gaining some time.

"I don't think I can afford to be slashed from the front... That's it, Sword God."

Behind the rest of the sword flashes, I can see the claws of the demons.

It ends like this.

Before returning the sword, the rest of the neck will be jumped.

But...

"What!?

Perhaps Aristotle seemed to have lost the rest of his body.

The rest turned behind Aristotle at an impossible rate.

This is the last remaining hidden sphere - the armor of life.

This black armor wrapped by the rest is a living magical instrument.

The only magical instrument that can be used beyond magic is the legacy of ancient civilization, which was excavated in the ruins of the Empire and passed down to the Empire for generations.

The magic equipment itself has the will and operates autonomously to protect the wearer.

"Arrest is your vengeance, demon."

The rest squeezed his last strength and shook down his sword.

"--Arrested? This is room, Emperor."

The sword swinging down in anticipation of a special attack stopped eating into something other than the demons.

"You're not a coward..."

"Oh, nothing on the battlefield. Isn't it?

In front of the demons, an auger threw himself out.

The rest of the sword broke slightly after cutting the corner of the auger to the middle.

"You were strong, Emperor. But goodbye."

Alist's nails pierced the rest of her right chest.

The body understands without thinking.

It's fatal.

……

"What? Let's hear the will. I'll just tell your daughter."

"... yes"

Say it louder.

I grabbed the head of the demon clan, gathering the power to disappear.

"... I'm with you. Give me a confession."

"!? You!?

The next moment, a black flame overflowed the rest of the armor, causing the demons to burn up.

"Gwaaaahh...!!

"It is a flame said to belong to the old civilization. Taste it and die."

This flame, which is activated at the same time as the wearer's life burns out, even melts the Adamantite that God has forged.

The black flame is entangled in Aristotle like a tentacle of a creature, burning up its body.

"You aaaaa!!

"Fufu... fuhaha...!

I couldn't keep my promise to Philline, but this isn't bad.

I don't know, I don't feel bad.

(Forgive me, Philline. Show me the rest of your death.)

The last thing I thought of living alone was my daughter, who I couldn't say I loved.

The rest let go of their final consciousness, leaving them to laugh.

--It's time to go, Christoph.
