You think you're worthy of saving the world?

Fortunately, Yuri was prepared.

He knew from the beginning that Amelod was the SSR character known as "Spectre" in the game.

Emelod Dietrich.

The eldest daughter of the Dietrich family, the vice-commander of the Lily Cross Knights, and also a model lady of St. Cromwell.

However, this seemingly perfect noblewoman actually has another dark and terrifying identity.

A beautiful young assassin who wields two demonic swords named "Sanka" and "Yaksha" and walks the moonless night.

As a pay-to-win character, she has the highest single-target damage in the game, and apart from being very fragile, she is a very powerful card.

As a character in the story, she initially appears before the game's protagonist as an enemy.

In the initial storyline, she caused a lot of trouble for the main characters, and almost killed them several times.

However, after a series of love-hate relationships, the protagonist eventually opened up to "Phantom" and she joined the protagonist's group, becoming a pay-to-win character.

Amelod possessed a certain obsession, which was the reason for her descent into darkness.

She longed to possess something that wouldn't disappear with the passage of time.

For Amelod at the very beginning, this thing was the Lily Cross Knights, which held three years of memories for him—

In fact, in the original story of "Perfect World", Amelio didn't turn to the dark side and become the master of the Demon Sword so early on.

This is because in the original story, there was a terrible incident where Euryphus was kidnapped by Stella, the "Ash Witch"!

The kidnapping of the prophesied child by Laude led to the reunion of the once-disbanded Lily Cross Knights after Yuri came of age.

Until Euryphus turned to the dark side, Ameliord, Ruby, and Safia accompanied him as his protectors.

Actually, in the game's storyline, the first person to turn evil was Euryphus.

Teacher Dafei is the root of all evil.

Upon learning that he was not the true child of prophecy, Yuri turned to the dark side and personally disbanded the Lily Cross Knights.

Amelod was devastated, but she did not give up.

For a long time afterward, Amelod kept pestering Yuri, asking him why he had disbanded the Lily Cross.

Despite being rejected countless times, Amelod still tried everything to win Yuri back and to revive the Lily Cross.

Neither pleading nor using a combination of soft and hard tactics worked. Eventually, Amelod blamed the main characters for Yuri's corruption.

She developed hatred for the protagonist, who was despised by Yuri.

"If it weren't for them, Lord Yuri wouldn't be like this!"

"If we kill that guy, Lord Yuri will revert to his original form, right?"

"Everyone can go back to how things were before..."

"it is good."

Under immense mental pressure, Amelod is bewitched by the demon sword and begins the storyline of assassinating the protagonist as "Phantom".

Yuri knew the whole story from the very beginning, but he didn't make it public.

He even sent Amelod to capture Stella, an order that now seems rather ironic.

Amelod was unaware that she herself had become an accomplice in the destruction of Lily Cross.

The current Yuri is far superior to the original Master Fei from the manga.

He already had a certain reputation in the Holy See, and his personal strength surpassed that of most of the Lily Cross's female knights, so he no longer needed their protection.

Stella's kidnapping will never happen.

It can be said that the dissolution of the Lily Cross is an unchangeable fact.

This series of factors combined led to Amelio's earlier descent into darkness than in the original story, resulting in her murdering innocent people and committing unforgivable crimes.

So, is this my fault?

Yuri thought to himself, somewhat speechless.

Solving a problem with selfish motives will inevitably lead to unpredictable variables.

There will always be unexpected events that don't go as planned; this is what is known as "fate."

Yuri was mentally prepared to be his enemy from the very beginning.

……

……

……

In a small, dark, square room.

Yuri, impeccably dressed, and Emerald, half-naked, faced off in a strange atmosphere.

The first to break the silence was a girl with long, straight black hair.

Amelod stared wide-eyed at the black-haired boy's face.

"Aren't you going to hand me over to the Knights Templar?"

"You knew perfectly well that I wouldn't do that."

Yuri never considered handing Amelod over to the Papacy.

He has already covered up Annabelle's crimes, so one more wouldn't make a difference.

Yuri is not a champion of justice; he only cares about his own personal feelings and interests.

“In that case… let me go, Lord Yuri,” Amelod said.

"Is this an order from senior?" Yuri asked dismissively.

"Yes."

"Put me down right now, or I'll get angry," Amelod said.

“No,” Yuri replied immediately.

"........."

The conversation stopped abruptly.

Yuri pulled the chair from the corner to the center of the room and sat down backwards.

Amelod looked around the room, then spoke in a somewhat sarcastic tone.

"This is the first time I've ever known that Lord Yuri's house had a basement like this..."

I'm afraid even Lady Cecilia doesn't know this.

We were all kept in the dark by you... Lord Yuri, you've kept it all very well hidden."

Her tone was full of resentment, and her emerald green eyes seemed capable of killing.

Yuri hugged the back of the chair and shrugged: "I only renovated this basement two weeks ago."

What was originally an unused underground wine storage room was temporarily transformed into this by me.

"Humph……"

Amelod pouted: "Just how much do you know?"

"I know everything."

Yuri met her gaze and said, "Senior Aimerod, you want the Lily Cross Knights to continue to exist, don't you?"

"...!"

Amelod was secretly startled, and his pupils trembled.

It's not scary that Yuri was able to uncover the identity of "Phantom".

But the fact that he knows even what he's thinking is a bit terrifying.

She suppressed her inner panic and confusion, and organized her thoughts: "Since you know, please come and help me."

Lord Yuri, the two of us can definitely do it…

"No," Yuri refused again.

He raised his head, his expression cold, and said, "Let me be blunt, Senior Aimerod."

"……Well."

The girl with long, straight black hair nervously swallowed.

Under her gaze, Yuri spoke.

"The Lily Cross is over, so give up on that idea."

"!!!"

A strong and chilling killing intent instantly filled the entire basement.

Amelod glared at Yuri with an almost hateful look, but the latter remained unmoved.

"No matter how hard you try, the dissolution of the Lily Cross is inevitable."

Even if I fight for it with you, the result will be the same.

so……"

"No way! They won't just disband like that!"

Amelod shook her fair and alluring body and screamed hysterically.

"If we work together, we'll definitely be able to overcome this difficulty again! Haven't we always gotten through it before?"

“This time it’s different,” Yuri said.

Amelod: "Waaah... Have the past three years been a lie...?"

Yuri: "The historical mission of the Lily Cross has come to an end."

Amelod: "Yuri! Why do you always have to go against me! Can't you just listen to me this once? Weren't you always the one who listened to your sister the most?!"

Amelod sometimes roared fiercely, sometimes pleaded plaintively, and sometimes choked with sobs.
