Ryan is a game-review blogger. One day, he played a game with gorgeous art, loads of content, and varied gameplay, but a plot that was complete garbage. The protagonist is the second daughter of a frontier count and one of his servants. Because of her illegitimate birth, she’s looked down on despite being far more talented than ordinary people. Her siblings bully her, her father despises her, her stepmother loathes her, and even the household servants take turns kicking her while she’s down. She bears the humiliation, grinds monsters for experience, and becomes the strongest person in the empire. She single-handedly defeats the tide of magical beasts attacking the empire, only to be framed after returning home. To prove her innocence, she cripples herself. Where’s that demigod-level strength of yours? Where’s the courage you showed when you took on the beast horde alone? Why are you such a coward now? Furious, Ryan wants to start killing, but a prompt saying “You cannot attack story characters” makes him so angry he passes out. When he wakes up, he discovers he has become the game protagonist’s guardian spirit, and can even control her actions completely. He doesn’t waste a moment mourning the loss of his body. Instead, Ryan joins the fight in the style of the Great Western King.
“Take one step back, and they’ll keep pushing. Give them an inch, and they’ll walk all over you.”
“Killing isn’t the answer to every problem, but it can deal with the people who cause them.”
“From now on, you may call me the new emperor.”
