Summary
Official Details
For countless generations, the human world was consumed by an era of relentless chaos as the Demon King waged a devastating invasion that spanned six hundred and sixty-five centuries. It was only through the holy sacrifice of courageous heroes that this catastrophic war was finally brought to an end, allowing humanity to barely cling to survival. Yet, the fragile peace is soon disrupted by the emergence of a new ruler in the demon realm: Demiurge, the 666th Demon King. In a shocking turn of events, Demiurge utters a single, resolute declaration before abruptly abandoning his domain. “I will stop being a demon lord,” he proclaims, turning his back on the demonic throne and vanishing from the underworld entirely. Now a runaway sovereign, his unprecedented departure sets into motion a journey unlike any other, drawing even a legendary hero into his orbit—not as an adversary, but as his unexpected subordinate. Together, this unlikely pair navigates a world still scarred by ancient conflicts, bound by a mystery that defies all logic. What could possibly compel the most powerful being in the demon realm to forsake his crown, and what is the true reason behind his sudden resignation?
