Shinwa Densetsu no Eiyuu no Isekaitan

Volume 10, Prologue

The boy had nothing.

He had no power to help anyone, to protect anyone, to save anyone.

He could not ask for it, he could not want it, he could not beg for it, he was like a child, but he could not obtain it.

There was no choice but to be shocked and accept the fact that he was an ordinary person.

He could do nothing but watch their backs, biting his lips in frustration.

But then――,

“Boy. Don’t you want power?”

What will people do when the power they crave appears before them?

Sweet, sweet, temptation―a realm that should never be entered.

Above all, what was offered to the boy was not the blessing of the white goddess but the desire of the black devil.

Just by looking at the other’s face, he could tell what they were thinking.

The man was extraordinarily kind, his eyes never smiling, but his mouth arched.

“Be faithful to your desires, let go of your aspirations, and follow your ambitions. Seize everything with overwhelming force. Accept the truth of the world. The weak will bow down, and the strong will laugh. The weak crawl on the ground, the strong fly in the sky. When you are strong, there is no unfulfilled hope.”

The mysterious figure spoke passionately, then extended his black hand to the boy again.

“Use all your power, all your wiles, all your schemes, and take everything into your own hands.”

The sweet nectar entangled his body.

Unable to move, the boy just stared at the figure in front of him.

“Thou―dost thou desire power?”

The boy reached for the forbidden fruit.

With the hope of catching up with them, he reached for the forbidden fruit…
