◈ The Regressor and the Blind Saintess ◈

Chapter 1: Prologue

──────

I lived for myself.

I had a gift, so I was able to live that way.

Born a beggar at the very bottom of the gutter, I exploited the gutter thugs with a gift I discovered by chance.

I simply did not want to go hungry.

I swallowed up all the cartels that ruled the gutter and exploited them.

It was so I could have a warm home to shield me from the biting winter wind.

I made ugly deals with those of noble blood. Amid the flames of war that consumed the continent, I fulfilled their base desires.

It was because I coveted their wealth.

When the Demon King finally appeared upon this land, I hid myself in a deep darkness beyond the Demon King's reach. I merely hid and waited until the heroes defeated the Demon King.

That was how I was able to carry on this wretched life.

The gift bestowed upon me, that absurd miracle, made it possible.

I had lived by trampling countless people, yet I felt no guilt. The life I had barely managed to obtain was too sweet, and I had no time to look away from it.

So I did not seek understanding.

Nor did I seek salvation.

Even if I met a miserable end, I swore I would accept it with a smile.

I swore I would gladly pay the price for the sins I had piled up.

That was why.

“Are you awake?”

At the end of my life, I had thought no one would remain by my side.
