I Am Really Not The Demon Lord

I am not a keeper of mysteries

Kaelan Mercer is a young and passionate teacher, freshly graduated and eager to inspire the next generation. However, his world is irrevocably shattered when he loses his only family member, his father, thrusting him into a chasm of grief. In a desperate attempt to bring his father back, Kaelan searches for the fabled "Grimoire of Revival," a mysterious tome rumored to possess the secrets of resurrection. During his relentless search, Kaelan stumbles upon an ancient library, where he accidentally activates the powerful magic within the book. To his dismay, he learns that the grimoire is not what it seemed—it is an ancient artifact of outworld magic that transports him to Starren, a vibrant realm brimming with magic and extraordinary beings, rather than providing the resurrection he sought. Upon his unexpected arrival at Aster Light Academy, the inhabitants mistakenly view him as a figure of immense power. In Starren, those of lower magical rank cannot sense the abilities of those higher than themselves, and Kaelan, devoid of any magical capabilities, is perceived as a powerful being beyond their comprehension. Amidst the admiration and reverence from students and faculty alike, he grapples with the weight of expectation and the façade he must maintain as an alleged paragon of strength. As he navigates the complexities of his new life, Kaelan is painfully aware that he is the weakest entity in the entire academy, vulnerable and in danger at every moment. Though he strives to honor his father's legacy and live a fruitful life in his place, he is burdened by the crushing pressure of his secret—that his supposed magic is nothing more than an illusion. Determined to uncover the true nature of magic and the secrets held within the Grimoire’s ancient power, Kaelan learns that understanding oneself can be more challenging than unraveling the mysteries of the arcane. Join him on a journey filled with humor, heart, and self-discovery, where the most powerful magic lies not in spells or illusions, but in the strength of the spirit and the bonds we forge along the way.

The Demon Lord Wanted An Ordinary Life

In a realm where the universe is composed of interconnected realms inhabited by various races, the demon lord led a lonely existence despite his unparalleled strength. However, his life took an unexpected turn when he saved Lucian, a human kidnapped by demons during an invasion on Earth. Lucian became the demon lord's storyteller, sharing tales of ordinary human life—of love, companionship, and warmth, things the demon lord had never known. As the demon lord grew enamored with the simple yet profound joys of human existence, he longed for a life as an ordinary human. Even the allure of an awakener's life, filled with luxury and prestige, paled in comparison to the beauty the demon lord sees in the life of an ordinary human. Amidst these desires, a formidable challenge arose. More than a thousand demons, fueled by envy and fatigue of the demon lord's rule, gathered to overthrow him. Realizing his end was near, the demon lord granted Lucian a single wish—to return him to the human realm. Lucian's wish was granted, but at a great cost; the demon lord sacrificed his life to save Lucian and destroyed the portal, preventing further demon invasions for a century. In this realm, a brilliant yet eccentric scientist sought to create beings capable of controlling all elements, a feat no one had achieved. He kidnapped orphans and conducted experiments funded by Mr. Tilo, a wealthy but scorned figure in society. Success came when one the orphans gave birth to a child that was an awakener. The baby was killed by Mr. Tilo, but fortunately the soul of the demon Lord entered the baby and thus the start of his ordinary live. The demon lord would have to fight greater enemies to protect his ordinary life and the people he love.
