Vicky's very lucky that the angels are so diligent about only acting with the boss's permission.

You just know that the angels debated re-worming her, since Raoul had left her like that for like a year or more.

Or maybe less time than that. I don't know, time is kind of wonky in this story.

She's not getting redeemed, y'all. She may get an explanation, but she's still a rapist and she still ordered his family killed. Raoul is not going to let that go, circumstances be damned (literally, in this case). What it might earn her is a quick execution vs the original prolonged torture plan.
Again: the goddess magic did not make her do those things to him. All it did was remove her inhibitions, so she would do the things she wanted to do anyway without any consideration of the consequences. The intrusive thoughts were given free reign, but they were still her thoughts.

Well, guess that we have time for a little flashback while Raoul is studying ! Let see how Victoria became who she is now and if the author is hinting at a possible redemption… (I mean, I highly doubt that but Raoul is full of surprises)

Also, love how Raoul got the Hell Angels loyalty by merely treating them as people :chad: Bro ironically turned their Hell into Paradise lol

Victoria's redemption arc? Meh. Let the author cook.

Raoul is possibly trying to promote other mortals into divine being by usurpation, kinda? Like how he took over god of hell's place. So maybe he planned to turn Victoria into goddess of yande- cough cough... goddess of love, and Theodora into goddess of abundance themselves?

Considering how vile a lot of the mortals have ended up and realizing it's likely due to this utterly rotten pantheon of gods, I'm very curious how many of Raouls' former targets ended up evil the way they did and what happened to them to become so. Next chapter should be fascinating.

More side characters in the actual story instead of just the flashbacks is more than welcome, the story could use more change of paces like this.

Honestly? A Victoria redemption might be a decent way to conclude an arc or the manga. That'd be new for this kind of torture porn manga.

Considering Ms. Saint who was literally corrupted by the gods never got redemption, why should Victoria?
Raoul gave her a chance, and the moment she was confronted by reality, she didn't hesitate to throw away her faith and abandon those who believed in her words (had to reread the hell part). Her true nature was that of a narcissist, hence no redemption. We have yet to see Victoria's true nature.
She's not getting redeemed, y'all. She may get an explanation, but she's still a rapist and she still ordered his family killed. Raoul is not going to let that go, circumstances be damned (literally, in this case). What it might earn her is a quick execution vs the original prolonged torture plan.

I guarantee you there is no human in the world that doesn't have dark thoughts. Knowing not to act on those dark impulses is a core part of morality. Taking away a person's inhibitions fundamentally changes a person's morality. It's the same reason why drunk or drugged people tend to get violent and make stupid decisions- their inhibitions are lowered.

Ugh, I thought Victoria was going to end up locked in a hellish dungeon and continue to be punished, and instead Raoul seems to genuinely forgive her for what she did and take care of her, making her a new Princess of Hell this time. I'm so angry! :pout:

Raaaaaaouuul Stop being stupid!!!

The one thing i can always this Manga besides the creativity of the Karma wrongdoers get, is how well he treated those that hasn't done anything to him. He provide the Paradise for the people who does little to no wrong (Rip to that though), and he gave the Angels far better work benefit than the so called previous God
The problem with that is it sets these angels up to become the next set of victims.

To be honest, Raoul isn't innocent in it. Whether he realizes it or not, he sometimes seemingly and inadvertently sets up scenarios where he has a reason to get revenge.

Take that paradise thing for instance. Yes, it's true that if he had left them as they were, they likely all would have been killed or worse. But they ended up dying anyway. Did he really not see the potential that someone would come after his creation? At best, the way he focuses energies on revenge rather than protecting what is his is at fault, and he doesn't feel the negative feedback from these events in a way that causes people to think "I gotta be more careful next time", because it's immediately assuaged by his plans for revenge. There's plenty of examples of this, like what's happening to Theodora.

I expect nothing else from him, and I do think he's actually somewhat aware of it, that's why he doesn't consider himself a hero. It's not just because he engages in punitive actions unbecoming of a hero, but also because he doesn't really save anybody. Does he even want to?

That's not just a rhetorical question too. While he's kept a poker face so far, and seems to tell himself Theodora is just a tool/plaything/convenient revenge scenario generator, I wonder if something irreversible really did happen to her, would he crack? That could be an interesting development.
