I Will Sacrifice Myself for the Disasters That Will Destroy the World

I woke up inside the novel A Step Away from Hell, a story I had read in my past life.

And not just anywhere—I found myself in a world destined to be destroyed by future disasters.
As if that wasn’t unfair enough, the place where I opened my eyes was none other than the slave shop where those very disasters were being raised.
Before I knew it, I had become a slave, forced to live in the same room as the young disasters who would one day bring about the end of the world…

“I told you, that’s Lizzie’s spot! Mary’s side has always been Lizzie’s spot…!”
“I sat here first. Why should it be yours? Explain it logically.”
“W-We should all s-sit fairly… t-together… I-I also… want to…”
“Friends shouldn’t fight…”

Yet, when I met them in person, they were nothing more than children—starved for affection.
These adorable kids… How could they possibly become the terrifying disasters that would one day destroy the world?
The answer was simple. The so-called education of the nobles, carried out under the pretense of raising high-class slaves.

“N-no, I d-don’t want to…! St-stay away! Don’t come near me!”
“Haah… Listen, brat. If you don’t want to get hurt, you’d better behave. Starting today, your education begins.”

I had read the novel. I knew exactly who would take them and what horrors they would endure.
In other words, I knew everything about how the nobles operated.
If that’s the case…

“I’ll go instead.”

If I could take their misfortunes, couldn’t I also change the future that leads to destruction?
