I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! | comment |
Once upon a time, a middle-aged Japanese salaryman thought he led a decent life. He had a job, a loving wife, a child, and even a house, but somehow everything went wrong eventually: his wife divorced him and denied him his daughter in the belief that he had an affair, he lost his job after he was accused of embezzling money from the company he worked for, and debt collectors took everything from him due to money that he never borrowed.On the verge of his death, he wonders what he did wrong, when he is visited by a mysterious man, who introduces himself as the "Guide". The Guide reveals the truth of what happened: the man was deceived by his ex-wife, who cheated on him, helped his boss embezzle money, and foisted her debts onto him. Now knowing the true reason for his misery, the Guide promises the dying man a second, happier life in another world. However, what the dead man didn't know was that his life's misery was actually orchestrated by the Guide himself, who feeds on negative emotions, and he set him up for failure in his next life as well.When Liam Sera Banfield turned five, he started to remember his past life. Reborn as the heir of the count house Banfield of the Intergalactic Algrand Empire, Liam's parents leave their planet to him to rule as his "birthday present" (including all their debts), while they enjoy a carefree life in the capital. With his maid robot, Amagi, and his butler, Brian, by his side, Liam decides to live his life to the fullest as an evil lord, who tramples on others' lives like they trampled on his… The only problem is that most of the things he does to benefit himself end up benefiting the empire as a whole as well, and the gratefulness Liam feels for the Guide only makes the Guide want to crush him and throw him into the depths of despair.I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

Panacea: Elixir, which is very expensive, and Liam buys to heal people from ridiculously awful physical conditions, usually gaining their Undying Loyalty for it. It's made by draining people's life-force with an Ancient Artifact. | |

Older Than They Look: The human race has much longer life spans to where it isn't unheard of for them to live up to 600 years. Because of this they also age much slower, as Liam looked like a pre-teen despite being 30 years old. | |

Conscription: Starts to become an issue in two separate ways: When Liam conquers worlds that have had it enacted, it breeds resentment towards him, due to his Leave No Survivors policy. Additionally, eventually his administration is forced to resort to it somewhat themselves, which infuriates Liam, who considers himself the only one allowed to oppress his people. | |

Money Dumb | |
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! / int_31fbee81 | comment |
Money Dumb: Seems to be a common trait with most nobility, but special mention goes to Liam's parents. The sole reason they gave Liam control over the planet at age 5 was to push their debt onto him, which he has been paying off for decades. Also, despite living in the empire where Liam gives them an allowance, by the time he sees them again they are again in debt, ask him to use his reward money for taking out Goaz to pay it off and to increase their allowance. After that, Liam just fully cuts them off. | |

Implied Death Threat | |
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! / int_3255968b | comment |
Implied Death Threat: When Cliff tries to petition the Empire to reinstate him as the head of the Banfield house, the Prime Minister flat out tells him that the Empire sees Liam far more useful than he ever was and doesn't trust him to now start paying taxes after he never did so before. After pointing out he even tried to push the appeal directly to him, the Minister recommends he should shut it and not bring it up again if he wants to continue to live peacefully in the Empire. From Cliff's reaction, he seemed to fully understand what he means. | |

Then Let Me Be Evil: Parodied. After society in Japan kicked him around, siding with his adulterous ex-wife, slapping him with debts that aren't his, destroying his life by believing her Blatant Lies, Malicious Slander, and false accusations, with unscrupulous debt collectors literally working him to death, Liam promises to spend his new life being an Evil Overlord cackling like a madman as he makes his subjects suffer for his own amusement, and that is indeed his intention... until he sees that his parents and grandparents have already squeezed his subjects dry, left them with corrupt bureaucrats that see nothing wrong with running them over with their cars, and he himself is once again saddled with an unreasonable debt that isn't his. He promises to build them up so he can then smack them down later. He gets to do the first part but never really gets around to the second, winding up beloved by his subjects and becomes a genuine Ideal Hero without realizing it. | |

Neural Implanting: Education capsules, which come in the form of Healing Vats, can install years of knowledge directly to the brain in a matter of months while also enhancing the body's strength during that time. However, the user must undergo physical rehabilitation and quickly "use-or-lose" the knowledge they've gained after leaving the capsule, so one cannot just stay inside indefinitely. | |

Author Appeal | |
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: In line with the author's hatred for the little sister characters, Cecil and Cleo is this for this story similar to Marie from Trapped in a Dating Sim and Celes from Seventh. Unlike Marie or Celes, who has Freudian Excuse and/or underlying reasons for their actions and has a big role on the plot, Cecil is more or less treated as an amusement by Liam and her plans spectacularly backfiring at her though it is played straight for Cleo who was an Ungrateful Bastard and plans to kill Liam due to envy. Yomu Mishima really likes buxom blonde heroines as shown with Rosetta and Christiana, similar to Angelica/Olivia/Noelle from Mobuseka and Novem from Seventh. The Main character again is a noble with severe flaws (either in status or personality) in the beginning of their story but a life changing event turned their lives around like Rudel (Dragoon, one of Yomu Mishima's early works), Lyle (Seventh) and Leon (Trapped in a Dating Sim). | |

STD Immunity | |
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! / int_77a8fd8a | comment |
STD Immunity: Attempted but averted. Despite their best efforts, the doctors in this sci-fantasy universe failed to eliminate STD's. The viruses and other infectious agents mutate far too quickly, resulting in a strain where infected women are completely asymptomatic, but infected men have their groins grow obscenely huge and then EXPLODE. The only known cure for this is the extremely costly Elixir. | |

Bullying a Dragon: People who confront Liam usually have some logical reason to believe they can overcome him or his forces, just Underestimating Badassery. Not so for a certain boastful Marquis House, who run in fear to the Empire for protection after pressing Liam's Berserk Button by insulting his mother-figure gets their heir split in half. | |

Worthless Yellow Rocks: Liam loves to be bribed in gold, still thinking it is a symbol of wealth like in his past life. Though despite it still being a valuable metal, it isn't seen as valuable as a lot of other precious metals. The fact he prefers gold over other precious metals makes merchants see him as benevolent compared to other lords. | |

Dystopia Is Hard | |
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! / int_83f43ca9 | comment |
Dystopia Is Hard: Liam truly wishes to be a genuine evil lord, but what constantly stops him is the fact he realizes that many of his evil deeds he wishes he could implement are either Awesome, but Impractical and would bite him in the butt, or are considered competence under the sometimes-skewed morality of this Feudal Future. Among other things, he fantasizes about forcing beautiful women into his Royal Harem for him to do with as he pleases, only for Amagi to spell out for him that Imperial noblemen are practically expected to be screwing their female subordinates silly and the female members of his staff were hired with that in mind (which in Liam's mind takes all the fun out of it). | |

The ban on super advanced A.I on military robots and the noble's disgust to androids is similar to the Imperium of Man's hatred of A.I. The reason is also the same: the sentient robots tried to eradicate humanity. | |

Artistic License – Economics | |
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! / int_fd76df83 | comment |
Artistic License – Economics: Early in the story, Liam captures a Black Box that can turn junk into rare metals, which essentially lets Liam print money for himself and his feudal holdings. He abuses it so much that it ought to cause an inflation crisis a la what happened to Spain in the 1600s, but this never occurs to anyone. | |

The Magnificent: Liam is widely known as The Pirate Hunter, for obvious reasons. He encounters a thuggish Baron known as The Pirate Noble, and the two get along about as well as you'd expect. | |
