Ulysses Hazaknut Stone’s POV

“Ahh, Haru-kun, you idiot.” (Ulysses)

Now that Haru-kun is gone, leaving me all… alone… in this world, I curse under my breath. The only person I’ve ever loved in that other world still thinks only about his fiancée—no, his wife—and of course, that makes me jealous. Still…

“I never thought he’d actually change fate…” (Ulysses)

That world was created by the gods, and its fate and future were predetermined. I always believed that defying those preordained paths was impossible for a mere human. And yet…

“You’ve gone and easily changed her… Alexandra ob Chevalier’s fate.” (Ulysses)

Originally, she was supposed to be rejected by Haru-kun, lose the power of her blessed gift, Dragon’s Favor, and be erased from that world by the Kingdom of Dehaubalz and the protagonist.

But Haru-kun nullified the engagement annulment with an even stronger divine contract, marriage, and took away King Eibar’s justification for destroying the Chevalier Household. He even gained support from that goddess, making it impossible for them to act.

At this point, not even the gods can restore fate to its original course.

“All of this going just as Haru-kun planned… I doubt that. But still, with even just this, you’ve surpassed the gods.” (Ulysses)

Because of this, the story has been distorted beyond recognition, and now, even I don’t know how it will end. To fix the story, the gods will surely show me the next fate to guide.

“How long do I have to continue this role…?” (Ulysses)

Gazing at the ceiling, I mutter quietly.

Following the fate decreed by the gods and leading the people of Nors along that path, that is my destiny as one who bears the title Hazaknut.

“Not that I have time to be complaining.” (Ulysses)

I shrug and smile bitterly, snapping my fingers.

“!?” (Eibar)

Seeing me suddenly appear in the audience chamber, King Eibar’s eyes widen in shock. But in an instant, his expression twists into a furious scowl.

“You… You wretch, you wretch, you wretcchhhh!!” (Eibar)

“Aha♪ Why so angry? Could it be because you’re incompetent?” (Ulysses)

“Silence! What could you possibly understand!?” (Eibar)

“All I understand is that you, Eibar-kun, are nothing more than an incompetent king who can’t even handle such a simple matter.” (Ulysses)

At Eibar’s enraged outburst, I coldly retort in an eerily low voice.

He couldn’t even properly nurture Wilfred, the former protagonist, and after finally finding a replacement to kick off the story, he went and ruined everything immediately. Honestly, he should be grateful that I didn’t… do anything.

“You know, don’t you? If the story falls apart because of this, there’s no chance of you becoming a god. Worse, the gods might erase everything in their wrath.” (Ulysses)

“!! U-Understood…” (Eibar)

Sigh… This fool seems to have finally grasped the gravity of the situation. Not that turning pale and trembling now will change anything.

“Anyway, make sure you handle things properly next time. Let’s see… In the main story, it’s the ‘Broken Living Doll in the Demon Tower of the Southern Kingdom,’ right?” (Ulysses)

It’s not a major plot point, but it’s still an important stepping stone for the protagonist to grow stronger. Besides, it’s where he gains his loyal maid heroine, so it’s crucial for the future.

“I assure you, there’s no need to worry. I’m providing support from the shadows without revealing the kingdom’s involvement. According to my infiltrator’s report, it’s already nearing completion.” (Eibar)

“Good. That’s what I wanted to hear.” (Ulysses)

Ahh, just mentioning the gods made him this obedient. If only he’d acted this way from the start.

“Well, I’ll just look forward to the results… then.” (Ulysses)

I won’t be babysitting this time, and besides, Haru-kun likely won’t get involved in this episode.

After giving a brief glance at the repeatedly nodding King Eibar, I teleported to another place. And there…

“Take good care of Owen-kun, alright?” (Ulysses)

“Leave it to me.” (Marion)

The woman kneeling before me in a maid’s uniform, Marion Shearer, gently placed a kiss of loyalty on my shoe.
