Character[]
The hero of this work, Raul is a hero with jet-black hair and crimson eyes, who saved the world from the hands of the Demon King. Originally an inhabitant of another world, he was reincarnated by the Goddess of Love to become a hero and save the world. In the village of Baden in the Kingdom of Kurz, where he was reborn, he lived with his mother and sister, but the village was burned down by demons, and his mother was cruelly killed. His powers as a hero were awakened at that time, and he was discovered by General Brown, who rushed to the village and went to the royal capital to train himself.
Together with Wendel, Christiana, and other friends, he defeated the Demon King and brought peace to the world. He was crucified on a cross, and like Prometheus in Greek mythology, his body was mutilated and eaten by wild dogs and rats. After his death, she meets the goddess of love again and reveals the ugly nature of the humans she tried to protect, demanding that she be brought back to life to take revenge on them. She is aware of the existence of the dark power that lies dormant within him and demands to be freed from it at the same time. She visits the kingdom of Kurtz again, this time with a new body and the power of dark magic from the goddess.
- Originally, he was an honest young man with a strong sense of justice and a gentle disposition toward the weak, but after being betrayed by many people and some of his friends, he was falsely accused of crimes he did not commit and lost those he cared about (his family, friends, and the villagers in the village he was close to). He has become so twisted by his anger and hatred that his personality has changed, and he has transformed into an extremely brutal character. He exacts revenge on his targets with cruelty and cruelty that is unbelievable for a hero and enjoys watching them suffer.
- The reason why his revenge is so brutal is because he has established his own rule: "I will do back what was done to me, my family, and my friends." In other words, his method of revenge is the same as what his targets have done to him in the past. However, this rule is not absolute, and he is willing to break it in some cases. The rule itself was a trap to trick Wendel, who had only betrayed himself (Wendel was only made to experience "death" in the illusion by casting a spell of illusion, but he was still physically alive. (But he is still physically alive since he is "using illusions to cheat back those who cheated him"). When he has completed his revenge, he takes the bodies of those he has killed back to the wilderness as trophies to be collected in his "revenge collection."
- In addition, when taking his revenge, he sometimes joins forces with those who share his desire for vengeance, or with the king, who is supposed to be the target of his vengeance. Although his body and soul are dyed in darkness, he has also built a tomb for his sister who was killed by Victoria, and for the sisters of Moltke Village who were cruelly murdered by the villagers of Nord Village, and has recovered a pocket watch that was taken from them and placed on their tombs. (The scene of the construction of the sisters' graves can be seen in the extra pages of the fourth volume of the manga.) However, he is no longer a friend of justice, but rather an enemy of evil.
Abilities[]
The ability「Absolute Darkness」that Raul gained after he was resurrected. Raul was able to use his ability to destroy and take away everything, which was sealed away by the Goddess of Love, but he was able to use it after she freed him to take revenge on humans. Raul's ability is so versatile that the Goddess of Love is concerned about it, and he can do all kinds of things with it.
"Shall we begin? With the purge of this world"
― Raul vowed for his revenge
Once upon being revived by the Goddess, Raul was able to access his original powerset from before when he became the Hero of the Kingdom. It was one of the requests made to the deity who revived him in order to seek out and meet his passion for revenge upon everyone in the realm of Kurz. Former Hero Raul is very adept at manipulating his dark powers for a plethora of ingenuities and effects, the application range so far being only limited by his own twisted imagination.

"There isn't any just cause... "Having a sense of justice." I despise that from the bottom of my heart. I will simply and absolutely exact my revenge. ABSOLUTELY! No matter what happen, I'll never forgive them. I will definitely massacre every damned one of those despicable people.
I won't show mercy to anyone."― Raul vowed for his revenge
However, it is not necessarily invincible, since it is said to be incompatible with the light magic of saints and purifies the power of dark magic. Incidentally, the only person who can use light magic at this point is Christiana, a former companion and current vengeance target of the saint. Later Christiana died at the hands of him by endless torture. Raul is a skilled swordsman trained by Ernst in his day to become a hero.
Raul is a master manipulator and an extremely cunning individual, to the point that he even planned his own death to depart to the afterlife in order to confront Christiana. Constantly persuades the Goddess of Love to break the laws of the realm of gods for his own sake, despite the fact that this would cost her a part of her body. Is an accomplished fighter, who killed the Demon King in the past, and was able to make complicated plans to exact his revenge against his enemies to make them suffer the most before meeting their deaths, all within a single month. He also manipulated many people (inc. Gods), to do atrocious things, such as enslavement, cannibalism, suicide, murder, self-harm, etc.
| Weapon | |
|---|---|
| A powerful divine weapon, a God-Killing Scythe that humans can never wield, and the only weapon that can kill or hurt a God. Raul can use this weapon because of the heart of the Goddess of Love he took to her to gain authority to wield the weapon, With the authority he got, Raul can cast holy magic (Supreme) even in hell without breaking any rules. |
"It's often said that "Revenge is meaningless and produces nothing", but that's just a bloody lie by those who have never exacted revenge before!... Revenge does produce something! An irresistible pleasant rapture inside this chest and a nerve-wracking palpitation!!"
― Raul
But due to his vengeance, Raul's sense increases his basic parameters and strengthens one's physical abilities in exchange for hindering the mental capacities of being sympathetic to his opponent by accessing the pure dark magic power that seal from him by the goddess of love. Thus Raul's instincts in combat increase he can dodge attacks in a split second able to identify the action of the opponent during combat in this he can predict any trajectory, and it is possible to avoid attacks from firearms/magic attacks.
Reception[]
The original work, which existed on Shōsetsuka ni Narō, was deleted at the same time as the Manga book version began to be serialized. One of the reasons given was that it was too extreme, and depending on the future development of the story, there was a possibility that it would be a violation of the Shōsetsuka ni Narō's Rules.
