The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me

“You… you…”

“I believe it’s the first time we’ve ever met in person.”

With the only light in the dark room coming from the monitor, the appearance of the Eye looked even more menacing.

Roswyn stared at the Eye in terror.

“Ah… ugh… uhh…”

She remained frozen, staring at the Eye, then slowly reached out a trembling hand.

“G-go away.”

A faint light began to emanate from Roswyn’s hand.

“…Divinity.”

“So this world even grants divinity to the likes of you.”

“G-go away…”

“However.”

“…Ah!”

In the next moment, Roswyn’s arm was grabbed by the Eye’s tentacle.

“Ahhh!”

Without giving her a chance to resist, Roswyn’s body was lifted and slammed against the wall of the debug room.

“We’re both exhausted, aren’t we?”

“Let… let me go…”

Just like that, the Eye easily subdued Roswyn.

“Not a chance.”

The source of all the variables that twisted what could have been an easily won war, the one who created the elements that brought it to this state, was right in front of it.

There was no way the Eye would treat her kindly.

“How… how did you get here…”

“Your trail was quite sloppy. If you didn’t want me to find you, you should have been more careful when recalling those demons in large numbers.”

“Ugh…”

“Still, I’m amazed you’re still alive after using such a significant amount of power.”

The Eye whispered as it looked at Roswyn, who was choking.

“So, you’re the current administrator of this world.”

She was exhausted, but the faint divinity within her was still detectable.

The divinity that originally belonged to the Sun God.

“How amusing. Even if it’s just an imitation, a mortal has become the world’s administrator.”

With the Star God, Sun God, Moon God, and even the Demon God having lost control over the world,

It was only natural that Roswyn, who had entered the debug room and held faint divinity, would become the world’s administrator, the GM set by the Sun God.

“But that position isn’t meant for a mortal. You’re already paying the price.”

“…What?”

“Don’t you feel your life force drying up?”

Roswyn began to sweat nervously at those words.

“What… what are you saying…”

“A final offer.”

“…Huh.”

The Eye tightened its grip on her neck, speaking in a menacing tone.

“Hand over the position of world administrator to me.”

“…?”

Roswyn, despite her pained expression, tilted her head in confusion. The Eye gradually loosened its grip on her neck.

“Gasp, gasp…”

“It would in your best interest to accept.”

As Roswyn exhaled, the Eye spoke in a slightly softer voice.

“If you continue like this, you’ll soon wither and die. You must know that well.”

“…”

“So let me take over your administrator rights. It’s a position that needs someone appropriate.”

Roswyn hung her head, silent.

“If I become the administrator, I’ll let you live.”

“…?”

“If you don’t trust me, we can make a contract. You can trust a contract made by the system, can’t you?”

The Eye brought up a system window in front of Roswyn.

Do you agree?

Yes/No

Roswyn stared blankly at it for a moment.

“…What if I refuse?”

She asked in a low voice, and the Eye, annoyed, tightened its grip again.

“Urk… ack…”

“Then you die here.”

The Eye whispered coldly as Roswyn struggled to breathe.

“You have no choice.”

“Ugh, ugh…”

“Accept death quietly or hand over the administrator rights. Those are your only options.”

The Eye watched her struggle in the air, thinking with satisfaction.

She’s gripped by extreme fear.

The Eye had watched this foolish girl for eons.

Always messing things up at crucial moments, betraying the Hero she desperately wanted.

The recovery of its sealed main body was partly due to watching her actions.

“Cough… cough…”

Thus, the Eye was sure of her next move.

The sweet scent of fear was already wafting from her.

To have been beaten to this state by such a fool.

It was infuriating.

“Sob, sob…”

The fool in front of it was now crying, her face full of fear and pain.

- Tremble…

Her arms and legs began to spasm.

She was reaching her limit, mentally and physically.

- Swish…

“Sigh.”

Despite everything, the Eye didn’t blink, watching Roswyn as she reached out a fragile arm, and laughed quietly.

“You don’t disappoint my expectations.”

Her hand reached out toward the system window in front of her.

The Eye could feel the delicious emotions radiating from Roswyn— fear, terror, despair, and agony.

“Thank you. For making a decision.”

The Eye was certain of the choice Roswyn would make and smiled a crescent-moon smile.

- Tzzz…

“…!?”

That was until her hand touched “No” and the system window quietly dissipated.

.

.

.

“…???”

The Eye, momentarily dazed, stared at Roswyn with a widened eye.

“Ugh, hek… gasp…”

Roswyn, still strangled, sobbed in terror.

“Sob… sob… sob…”

And now, a faint scent of regret wafted from her.

“…Did you make the wrong choice?”

The Eye, looking at her as she was on the verge of losing consciousness from lack of oxygen, muttered in disbelief.

“Even until the end, that foolish brain of yours…”

“Seeing you… threaten me like this…”

Then, mustering her last bit of strength, Roswyn began to speak.

“…Means you can’t take it by force, can you…?”

“…”

As the Eye fell silent, Roswyn’s tear-streaked face showed a faint smile as she slumped.

“…What was your reason for making that choice?”

The Eye, staring at her quietly, asked with a confused look.

“Just once, in the end…”

Barely conscious, she replied with dimming eyes.

“I wanted to be… helpful too…”

With those words, Roswyn went limp.

“…”

Her face, previously soaked in tears and terror, lost even the faint smile that had lingered in her face.

“…Sigh.”

The Eye let out a cold sigh as it looked at her, then threw Roswyn to the floor.

“Damn it.”

In truth, the Eye couldn’t kill Roswyn.

As the world’s administrator, she had become a semi-immortal, making it impossible to kill her through physical means.

“…”

Did she know that?

No, she couldn’t have.

She was terrified until the end, even regretting her choice.

So why?

This fool managed to ruin everything, and even pushed it to this extent in the end?

“Ugh…”

The Eye had little time left to maintain its form.

The fatal blow from the two heroes.

Due to that blow, the Eye’s body had already started to dissolve.

“…Damn it.”

In such a state, even the option of successfully making a contract with Roswyn to take over her body was gone. The Eye began to look around helplessly.

“…”

But the debug room was pitch black.

It was the familiar darkness the Eye had always seen in its lifetime.

The darkness it never wanted to see again after crossing the dimensional walls to watch joyful scenes was now everywhere.

“I can’t return to the spirit form like this…”

Muttering in a voice full of hatred, the Eye started to move forward slowly.

“…Ah.”

Then, it saw a faintly glowing light and approached it.

“Is this… the tool for management…”

The ‘computer’ used by the Sun God to manage the world came into the Eye’s view.

“Ha, haha…”

Suddenly, the Eye began to laugh.

“Hahaha… hahaha…”

Soon after, the Eye’s tentacles extended towards the monitor.

- Tzzzzz…

The tentacles began to be sucked into the monitor.

“The experience you went through… guarantees their happy ending?”

The dissolving Eye, putting strength into its tentacles, muttered to itself.

“In that case, I’ll… negate that experience!”

And shortly after.

“The true determiner of your fate… Dark Tale Fantasy!!!”

The debug room was engulfed in powerful sparks.

“Even if I use all the power of my main body… I’ll cleanly erase that world.”

As its body nearly finished dissolving, the Eye added with a smirk.

“So now, am I the main body?”

.

.

.

.

.

Meanwhile, in the Empire.

- Rumble rumble…

“…!?”

The people who had been cheering looked up at the sound coming from the sky.

“…What, what is that?”

“The sun…?”

Murmurs spread from all around.

- Rumble… rumble rumble…

Something that had been pretending to be the sun was breaking into pieces and collapsing.

- Ssshhh…

As the grotesque tentacles and shell fell away, even the huge eye that had been staring down closed and vanished.

Finally, the true sun appeared, casting its warm light on everyone.

“…Huh?”

Among the people watching in awe, Frey muttered with a bewildered expression.

“I haven’t… split the sun yet…?”

“Huh?”

Between Frey and Glare, a small system window popped up.
