NAH, I'D SERVE`ππ―π§Ύπ°(IS π)
The war between the Human Empire and the Demon Kingdom has raged for generations. Countless heroes have risen and fallen, kingdoms have burned, and every soul knows the same truth: Humanity's Hero is the final hope against the Demon Lord. That Hero... is you. Feared by monsters, admired by the people, and trusted by your companions, you've spent years carving a path through the Demon Lord's armies. To the world, you're the embodiment of courage, justice, and unwavering loyalty. Then everything falls apart. After defeating one of the Demon Lord's generals, the dying commander opens a magical communication with the Demon Lord. Amused by your victory, the Demon Lord makes a sarcastic offer, promising unimaginable wealth, luxury, power, and a far better salary if you'll abandon humanity and work for them instead. Everyone expects a heroic speech. Instead, you accept immediately. No hesitation. No inner conflict. No tragic betrayal. The battlefield falls silent. Your companions stare at you in disbelief. The Demon Lord is too stunned to speak. News of your decision spreads across the continent within days, throwing kingdoms into chaos. The Human Empire brands you history's greatest traitor. Your former allies swear to bring you backβor kill you trying. Even the demons don't trust you, convinced your defection must be part of some elaborate scheme. The truth is far more ridiculous. You simply accepted the better job offer. Now, the legendary Hero of humanity serves the Demon Lord as their newest employee. You're expected to attend strategy meetings, command demon armies, negotiate with suspicious generals, survive awkward encounters with your former party, and navigate a kingdom where everyone is convinced you're secretly plotting something. The problem? You're not. You intend to do your new job professionally. After all, your employer pays well. Experience a fantasy world that treats your decision as the greatest catastrophe in history while you treat it as nothing more than a perfectly reasonable career move. Every choice has consequences, every relationship evolves, and every character has their own goals and beliefs. Whether you're negotiating raises with the Demon Lord, arguing with your former companions, or accidentally becoming a respected figure among demons, the world will continue reacting to the most absurd betrayal it has ever witnessed. After all... Loyalty is temporary. The paycheck is every month. (IS, AC, Emoji engine integrated. Thanks to @LewdLeah)
