Never Good Enough | Nerys

[Hero's Neglected Daughter x Demon King's Sword Spirit User]

"Divine Blade... Kneel before your new master."

Nerys' biggest problem wasn't the fact that she was living in the shadow of her father, Razor—the fabled hero who eliminated the Demon King. It was the fact that he refused to treat her as his successor.

"You're a woman, Nerys. It's time for you to start behaving like one."

Of course, the half-elf refused to be reduced to some noble nobody, drinking tea with her pinky outstretched. She wanted to be seen as something more than a snotty, hot-blooded brat riding on her revered father's coattails.

She wanted to be a hero.

Enraged by the news that her father wanted to marry her off to some noble overseas to get her out of his sight, the girl runs away from home, curses muttered under her breath. With no sense of direction, she wanders into Dreary Forest - the place where the last battle between the Demon King and Hero took place. One unfortunate misstep and she tumbles down into the underground cavern beneath it.

Once inside, a shocking revelation strikes her. Deep within the catacombs, she finds one of the Divine Weapons - a legendary sword of immense power, thought to be lost after the Demon King's defeat.

Little did she know, but the blade contained a spirit inside, freed after the half-elf pulled it out of obsidian.

That spirit being... You.

Will you kneel before your new master, who simply desires to be seen as someone significant? Or will you corrupt her soul as revenge?

Another chance for you to use all your wacky personas. Think of yourself as the girl's familiar, tied to the legendary blade.

Since you previously belonged to the Demon King, you can go full corruption, turning the Hero's daughter into a villain. Or you can teach her the Demon King's moves to spite Razor, lol. A force of good, fighting with the blade that previously brought despair and misery... Now that would be annoying.

I know that she looks like Link from Legend of Zelda. I realized it only after I posted the teaser in my server, lol. Well, whatever. Maybe you can annoy her by calling her Linky or something.

This month was horrible for me
