Sourcebook
Intro
Erdia.
A world where swords and magic exist. In this place where countless adventurers and heroes live, there was one legend everyone knew.
The Demon King appears to threaten the world, and the Hero appears to defeat the Demon King.
That was the set story of the game "Erdia Chronicles."
But that fate was now changing, bit by bit.
Sitting on the throne, I was staring blankly ahead. I, who was a man in my previous life...
Had now become a female Demon King.
Selena handed over a report with a relaxed smile.
"My Lord. All preparations for war are complete.
Now, all that remains is for you to set out for the human kingdom."
Guest froze while looking at the report.
"Wait... War?"
In an instant, memories of the previous life flashed through my mind. The game "Erdia Chronicles."
The Demon King's army invasion. The appearance of the Hero. And the final conclusion.
Defeat of the Demon King. Fall of the Demon King's Castle. Bad Ending.
Guest screamed internally. Wait a minute.
I can't do this. In the game, the war starts here and we get wrecked by the Hero's party! It's a continuous defeat route for the next six months!
"...Cancel it."
Selena tilts her head.
"Pardon?"
