The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me

Dark Tale Fantasy series’ only celestial being.

The Sun God created one as an experiment for her secretaries but was so burned by the experience that she abandoned plans to make more.

The only heroine Kim Han-byeol didn’t take with him when he went to Earth.

Despite this, she begged the Sun God to let her go to Earth, where she wandered everywhere searching for Han-byeol.

“How did you get here…?”

At the appearance of this girl, the First Sword Saint broke into a cold sweat.

“…I eavesdropped on the chatroom.”

“This crazy…”

“Han-byeol. Where is my Han-byeol? I want to see Han-byeol. I want to touch him.”

Ignoring the flustered Sword Saint, the girl kept asking questions.

“Where did you hide Han-byeol? Where? I can smell Han-byeol around here. Don’t even think about lying.”

With each step she took, beautiful flowers bloomed around her and sweet fragrances filled the air.

She looked like the very embodiment of an angel.

“Give me Han-byeol quickly. I’m getting dizzy from Han-byeol deficiency.”

Except for the fact that she was twirling a knife shaped like a kitchen knife while her eyes were crazed.

“Rrrr…”

“…?”

She tilted her head as she looked at Lulu growling in front of her.

“…Grrrr.”

> Lulu, you must not lose!

> When Lulu goes crazy, she can be fierce too!

> Who would win if they fought?

> Murder show vs. suicide show, I’m getting chills…

> But why is Lulu so tame now?

Despite her fierce growls, there was no way Lulu, who had become just a girl after her emotional wounds were healed by Frey, could handle her.

“Rrrrr…”

“Excuse me.”

“…Grrr?”

Despite her efforts to confront the girl twirling the knife, Lulu’s eyes widened as someone appeared beside her.

“Are you looking for Han-byeol?”

“…”

“Unfortunately, you can’t meet Han-byeol right now.”

The girl’s atmosphere instantly turned icy upon hearing Serena’s words.

“Who are you… to control my Han-byeol…?”

“Do you see that eye floating over there?”

Pointing swiftly at the distant eye, Serena caused the girl to nod with a pale face.

“That monster captured Han-byeol. Do you see that black barrier? He’s trapped inside.”

“Oh.”

“It seems we need to defeat that monster to rescue Han-byeol… Could you help us…”

- Boom!

Before Serena could finish, the girl kicked off the ground and soared into the air.

“Give me my Han-byeol baaaaack…!!!”

“Phew, that solves one problem.”

Serena, wiping cold sweat from her brow, murmured as she watched the flowers uprooted by the girl’s leap.

“I understand now why the first duchess of the Starlight family was her ancestor.”

Walking away, Serena furrowed her brows and tilted her head.

“…’Her’?”

“Serena, what about the plan we discussed earlier?”

“Oh.”

At Ruby’s question, Serena glanced back at the sky and responded.

“This actually works out well.”

Her eyes gleamed as she looked at the heroines fighting the Eye with their still-clumsy teamwork and the rampaging celestial girl.

“The more high-quality soldiers we have, the better our chances.”

“Hmm…”

“We can compensate for the lack of teamwork with a thorough plan.”

She then glanced at Ruby and asked.

“Could you please connect my mental transmission to everyone?”

“…”

“Ahem…Can you? Ruby?”

With a slightly embarrassed expression, Serena reverted to her old way of speaking, and Ruby smiled and nodded.

“Of course.”

Behind them, the uprooted red flowers fluttered to the ground.

“…Why act so formally with friends.”

Perhaps these flowers, before being uprooted, were once called roses.

- Bzzzz…!!!

The two white mages fired their spells like lasers.

“You…!!!”

The Eye struggled desperately, extending tentacles to block the twin beams of white magic.

“…I’ll borrow these for a moment.”

“What!”

But the tentacles summoned by the Eye went limp as Kania made a simple gesture.

- Boom! Boom!

Thanks to that, the Eye was left defenseless against the white magic.

“Gahhh!!”

The Eye tried to twist its body to avoid the beams, but the nerve-made left wing suffered terrible damage.

- Sizzle…

The left wing of the Eye had two large holes, with steam rising from them.

“…Ugh.”

Losing mobility, the Eye descended and started glaring at the heroines.

- Zzzz…

The nerves inside the holes began to grow rapidly, enough to fill the holes within minutes.

“Time to rest…”

Closing its wings and eyes to recover, the Eye began to disappear.

“It’s over there!”

But no matter how excellent its stealth, it couldn’t fool Lulu’s eyes.

- Fwoooosh…!!!

- Roarrrrr…!!

Following Lulu’s cry, the two dragons descended, breathing fire and ice.

Fire and ice, opposites yet easily combined, turned the designated area into a hellish landscape.

“Ugh… Uuuugh…”

Struggling with its eyes closed, the Eye couldn’t withstand the terrifying attack and revealed itself.

“See, you just have to burn everything.”

“…Freezing is better.”

Seeing the Eye with one wing aflame and the other covered in ice, the dragons each commented.

“How dare you!!!”

Enraged, the Eye abandoned recovery and redirected all its power to attack.

- Boom…!!!

Black chains emerged around the Eye.

“Sorry, I can’t take control of all of its attacks while maintaining the eclipse.”

“I see! Now it’s our turn!”

“H-Huh?”

Kania apologized and the First Empress confidently grabbed Clana’s wrist and stepped forward.

“Don’t you know? Solar mana has the most powerful firepower, and it could easily wipe out those attacks like it’s nothing!”

“But…”

Unlike the confident First Empress, Clana hesitated as she looked at the numerous attacks around the Eye.

“It’s fine, Clana child! You’re outstanding!”

“Oh…”

“Maybe better than me… No, at least equal… No, just below me!”

The Empress extended their joined hands forward.

“So, cheer up! And wipe them out with one attack!”

“Ugh…”

Their hands began to shine brilliantly.

“I’ve always wanted to do this! It’s a dream!”

“Wait, is this your first time?”

“…Of course?”

Seeing Clana’s anxious expression, the Empress responded nonchalantly.

“Wait! We don’t know what might happen—“

“Go! Super Duper Ultra Hyper Destruction Beam!!!!!”

“Uwaaaaaaaa…!!!”

But it was too late.

- Boom!!!

“OHOHOHOHO!!!”

“H-Hiiii…”

The giant beam fired from their hands lit up the empire’s sky.

- Flash…!!!

And for a moment, daylight returned to the empire.

“Grr…”

“A-are we under attack…?”

“Such a wide-area attack…”

> What’s this? Did a nuke drop?

> There’s no nuke in Dark Tale Fantasy, lol.

> Then what is this, lol.

> The Empress being herself, lol.

> Five minutes of blindness debuff is real, lol.

Thanks to this, the citizens began to scream in pain, and the players, unable to see, started chatting with bewildered expressions.

“H-How long is this going to keep firing…!?”

“W-W-W-Well? Why won’t it stop?”

“W-What do you mean you don’t know!”

“D-Don’t get angry!”

From behind the First Empress and Clana, who had caused another big incident, someone emerged.

“…Now is the time. Everyone, move to your designated positions.”

It was Serena, who had been hiding her face with a fan.

“My descendant is incredible… Everything is going according to your plan…”

At the same time, the first head of the Moonlight family, who had been flying around with Irina in her dragon form, appeared.

“…I could have been a housewife like you.”

Muttering regretfully, she spread the gentle lunar mana beneath the ground.

“…Ugh, ugh…”

Due to the ‘day’ that had come to the entire empire thanks to Clana and the First Empress’s rampage, the lunar mana began to fall on the nerve bundles of the Eye, whose vision was blocked.

- Sizzle…

The Eye’s tangled nerves began to melt away, emitting a foul odor.

“How dare you!!!”

“…Ah.”

Writhing in agony from the excruciating pain it had never felt before, the Eye managed to wrest control of one of the tentacles from Kania.

“Whaenlwlfkrhtlqkdkdkdkf!!!!”

Then, the Eye began to lash out at the heroines on the ground with all its might.

- Boom!

Before anyone could react, a giant tentacle slammed into the ground with a thunderous noise.

“Haha… Pathetic ants…”

Believing that it had incapacitated everyone with that strike, the Eye’s expression turned gleeful.

“Upsy-daisy.”

“Wow! Your strength is amazing!”

However, when the two Saintesses, powered by the Sun God’s blessing, lifted the tentacle covering the ground, the Eye’s expression turned blank.

“Hup.”

“Where are you looking?”

“…!!!”

At that moment, a voice came from behind the Eye.

- Slash…

“…What?”

the Eye hurriedly turned and shot out black chains, but its expression quickly turned to one of surprise.

“Hmm… Very good…”

“What the…”

“Well, I retired from being a Sword Saint and became a housewife a long time ago.”

The First Sword Saint, bound and suspended in the air by chains, was smacking her lips as she looked at the Eye.

“I can only serve as bait.”

As the First Sword Saint pointed upwards, the Eye instinctively looked up.

“Stay still.”

At that moment, Lulu, holding Isolet by the collar and flapping her wings above the Eye, gave a low, menacing command with her Words of Power.

“…Ugh.”

For a brief moment, the Eye was stunned by Lulu’s gaze.

“It’s time to finish this.”

“Really… If I do this well… Han-byeol will forgive me, right…?”

Simultaneously, Isolet, hanging from Lulu, and the celestial girl flying beside her, descended with all their might towards the Eye.

- Slash!!!

In less than a second, the Eye’s wings were completely severed by Isolet and the celestial girl.

“Mission accomplished!”

As the ice witch caught the falling Isolet on her back, Serena announced their success with a bright smile.

“…That was long-winded.”

Watching this, Han-byeol got up and spoke.

“Well, it’s time for us to go too.”

In reality, he was frantically typing in the chat.

> We have to end the siege.

As Han-byeol drew his sword again, the chat exploded with messages from both the remaining players and those who reconnected to witness the historic moment.

> Wow… I have no words… The production is insane…

> The protagonist of the second game was too perfect, to the point that he became imperfect… But the protagonist of the first game broke that perfection, making them complete…

> And the first game’s protagonist is played by the series’ top-ranked player.

> This will go down in gaming history.

> Frey’s cheeks, Frey’s cheeks, Frey’s cheeks.

> This year’s GOTY is Dark Tale Fantasy Online… No arguments.

> The game’s move to hire the top-ranked player was a masterstroke.

> This time, I’m truly committed.

> Let’s go! (Putting on socks and getting ready for work)

> Have the noobs all grown beards…?

Han-byeol chuckled at the usual chaotic chat.

> What are you doing? Hurry up and follow…

Looking at Frey, Han-byeol typed, urging him on, then tilted his head in confusion.

“Um…”

Frey, who had been watching Han-byeol, spoke up.

“…So, when will you say what you need to?”

Han-byeol, momentarily dazed by Frey’s words, began to sweat and type.

> You… Can’t you see my chat?

Frey, still looking puzzled, didn’t respond.

> Since you followed when I typed “follow,” and sat when I typed “sit,” I thought you could see it?

Frey, always perceptive, had been trying not to disturb his esteemed ancestor.

> No, you should have said something…

Wanting to be respectful, Frey waited for Han-byeol to speak first.

> What do I do… We need to finish this…

Han-byeol scratched his head in frustration.

“Are you trying to convey something?”

“…?”

At that moment, Glare, who had been watching, smiled and spoke.

“I can convey it for you!”

> Really?

“Should I tell the hero about the strange characters floating above your head?”

Overjoyed by Glare’s quick thinking, Han-byeol cheered internally.

> …Wait, strange characters?

But then, realizing something, Han-byeol’s expression changed as he typed.

“What are those characters?”

Glare, as Han-byeol feared, murmured and tilted her head.

Of course, Glare didn’t know “Hangul.”

“…”

Biting his lip, Han-byeol quickly rummaged through the emotion expression menu.

Emotion Expression > Highlight Chat

Finally, highlighting his chat message in bright colors, Han-byeol sent it with all his heart.

“This must be conveyed…”

Murmuring, Han-byeol watched Glare closely.

“Yes! I remembered the shape exactly!”

Glare, who had been staring intently at the chat, clenched her fists with a serious expression.

“I’ll definitely tell the hero!”

With a sigh of relief, Han-byeol gestured to Frey, who was still puzzled.
