Hiram, the strongest demon king in history and ruler of all demons, defied the Demon God’s demands for sacrifice. This defiance led to a fierce battle that left Hiram dead. Even though he is the strongest, he cannot overcome the truth of this world: Demons cannot defeat Demon Gods.
Five hundred years later, Hiram was finally reincarnated as a human.

So begins Hiram’s new quest to destroy the Demon God in this unique adventure story!
