In the prologue, we learn about Schera's miserable life before eating a death god and the events that lead to her eating the death god.

Thereafter, the "you are what you eat" concept taker root as she displays unmatched prowess at slaughtering her enemies with the scythe belonging to her one-time meal.

We come to learn that food is her ultimate motivation:

• Starved and on the verge of death, desiring nothing more than food, the death god that came to reap her soul ended up becoming her meal.
• She thought he looked delicious and, afterwards, still considers the death god to be the most delicious thing she's ever eaten.
• She joined the military because she wanted to be able to eat until full - something she never had the a chance to experience in her entire life before.
• Her other motivation - her hatred for the rebels - was because one of their men stole her last meal just before she was about to meet her end - it was the only decent food she had ever managed to get her hands on. She wall absolutely never forgive anyone who takes away her food.
• She raids enemy supplies for surplus dinner.
• She's always snacking - even at inappropriate times.
• She cares for people who give her food or eat with her and scorns those who would interrupt a meal.
• She cares more for the celebratory meal than her promotion - unlike all the others in the military.

All that aside, she's the most capable fighter in the series and her unit is the most competent at disproportionately spilling enemy blood. It's ironically appropriate that she will come to be feared as a death god and labelled as such as a result of her achievements.

For Schera, it's finally another opportunity to eat another delicious death god.

I do like the relationship the story is able to portray between Schera and her Calvary unit. It honestly can get a bit emotional when a Calvary member dies. Seeing Schera's Horse die was honestly one of the saddest moments of the story and it's really great.

I love the relationship between Schera and her advisor Katarina. They'd honestly make an adorable couple and there are even some hints as to that happening. I just find the image of Katarina forcing Schera into a bath while Schera is trying to run away with food in her mouth.

I do find it a bit of a disappointment how Katarina died. The story just gave it a passing mention really. I think at the end with the MC being taken away by one of her fellow Calvary members, I think that scene would've been all the more emotional if it was Katarina instead fighting to the death for Schera.

The beginning is slightly dark because her abusive and negligent family is slaughtered by the enemy kingdom and she almost gets r*ped by one of the soldiers. Or she really was being r*ped, we really don't know from her point of view, but I don't think she was. Just as the soldier was starting to r*pe her, she saw "Death", robe and scythe in hand. She eats the dude then, or in her perspective, she eats death, therefore becoming death and gaining monstrous physical strength.

She joins the army and is completely underestimated, but that changes when she absolutely slaughters everyone with her scythes. She quickly ascends the ranks with the bloody gore of her enemies in her wake. When she later gets her own army, they trust and respect her, to the point of worshiping her as the "Death God." This is where it gets even more dark than her being a little girl happily harvesting the heads of the enemy. Her army worships her as a literal god, to the point where they don't mind death because they don't believe they will truly die while they are fighting with the "Death God." It gets to the point where they take on the aspects of even being brainwashed at one point, making this extremely disturbing.

She eventually gets killed by a traitor in the rebel army that orginally was her Second Lieutenant. She vows revenge and then dies, but not before eating him. She is thought to have died, but Death once again gave her another chance, so she slowly waits for the day to take revenge on the other betrayers.

In the end, the rebel army wins, but it was no better than the previous kingdom. It's still corrupted to the core and it still has suffering commoners. This just makes it all the darker, because the ruling queen wanted a world where there was no starvation or suffering for the people, but in the end, she got her just deserts and then died due to stress overclocking her body beyond the limits. A new rebel army appeared and the cycle was starting to repeat. In the darkness of this all, the "Death God" had formed a new army with the rebel army, getting her revenge and reaping souls.
