Chapter 1 – Prologue

“Why did you come to see me?”
Inside a room that is too large to be a treatment center. A beautiful woman was lying on the bed. It’s quiet. Her woman’s voice only resonates moistly like the morning mist.
Seeing the woman turn her head and not look back, the warrior Lloyd felt a pain as if her chest would be ripped apart. Could she be in despair or too depressed? She was worried about that.
“What are you talking about, Sophia, of course—”
So it didn’t work.
Lloyd stopped her. Sophia’s distant despair swallowed his breath. Sophia smiled faintly. Her platinum-like hair and her golden eyes still gleamed, but her smile was no longer virtuous. A mocking, mocking laugh. Sophia raised her body. Wriggling wriggling. Ah. Disgusting
The blanket that covered her body flowed down. Lloyd’s gaze reached her arms and legs. Her arms are only up to her elbows, and her legs are only up to her knees.
She faithfully participated in her journey to kill her Saint Sophia Gracia, her demon lord, and all she had left was her severed arms and legs. Lloyd swallowed her saliva.
“… I will take responsibility.”
“Why are you a warrior? It doesn’t matter. I suffered because I was weak.”
“Yeah, because I couldn’t protect it…”
“That’s Okay. It’s strange that all stories have a happy ending. And – if that’s enough, it’s a happy ending. Isn’t it?”
Lloyd couldn’t bear to look at Sophia. She was terrified of herself. She shouldn’t, but she thought Sophia was a little, ugly.
With her arms and legs cut off, Sophia no longer looked like a beautiful white woman. She, who smiled brightly, did not look like a noble saint. Just like a disabled person who needs to be taken care of.
It was clearly Lloyd’s own mistake. She shouldn’t have left Sophia alone, she thinks.
Other people were able to restore her limbs with Sophia’s holy magic even if her limbs were cut off, but Sophia herself could not restore herself. So she always made it her number one priority to protect her. She was blinded by the Demon King’s neck, and she left Sophia behind.
Left alone, Sophia was attacked by the remnants of the Demon King. It was quite a job, so Sofia could have been an opponent, but there was no way that the remnant in the castle was at the level of a job worker. Fortunately, a nearby thief quickly rescued Sophia, but it was unavoidable that her limbs were cut off in the process.
“Are you going to keep looking at me like that?”
“Oh, this is-“
“That’s Okay. I don’t want to get hurt more, so can you leave? Tears come out. Ah really. Hate.”
Lloyd noticed Sophia’s lips were quivering. The moment she was about to say something, her Sophia’s words came out first. Lloyd took a step closer without even realizing it.
“You asked me to leave. Rudeness will be forgiven. Hurry.”
She winced again at the sound of her subdued voice and stopped.
“You don’t have to worry about me. Lloyd has a lot of women around him, right? She’s also a hero. She’s having a banquet, and everyone will probably find her. Shouldn’t she go? … I know you don’t have time for something like me.”
“It’s not like that… !”
“You don’t notice much. It’s about asking me to leave.”
Lloyd was silent for a moment, lowering her head, then went outside.
“It seems difficult now, so I’ll come back.”
“You don’t have to.”
“… Wait for me.”
“It is useless.”
Visit is closed. Sophia muttered.
“I’m a body that can’t move anywhere anyway.”
The eyes are the windows to the heart,
Sophia’s golden eyes entwine with melancholy and sadness.

The saintess’ limbs were severed.
Nice.
There was only one reason why he did not stick a sword in the face of the unlucky warrior and joined in catching the demon king. To eat her saintess.
The opportunity has finally arrived. Slowly, slowly. You have to melt it
sooo where is the mc…?
