Synopsis[]

In regards to the MMORPG Cross Reverie, Sakamoto Takuma boasted an overwhelming strength that was enough for him to be called the Demon King by the other players. One day, he gets summoned to another world with his appearance in the game. There, there are two people that insist "I am the real summon master." Takuma gets slave-turning magic used for summoned beasts cast on him by the girls―

However, the peculiar ability "Magic Reflection" is invoked! The ones that were turned to slaves were the girls!

Takuma was bewildered. He's the strongest magician but, he doesn't have any social skills. Panicking, the first words that came out were the ones that he used inside the game role-playing the Demon King?! "I'm amazing you say? Of course I am. I am Diablo... The one feared as the Demon King!"

This is the story the Demon King (acting) that would soon inspire the world and his other world adventure that he plunges through with his absolute strength, raise the curtain!

Character[]


The main character of this work. His real name is Takuma Sakamoto. He boasted overwhelming strength in the MMORPG Cross Reverie, but when he noticed it, he was summoned to another world in his in-game appearance. He level is 150, but he begins to realize that he surpassed it in the middle of the story. I think I've reached my limit. He was an introvert who played the MMORPG Cross Reverie as his character Diablo. He also played a bit of Sister Carnival (SisKani) and a modern warfare FPS.

Takuma was a Cross Reverie player who controlled the character @Diablo-13, known as the true Demon Lord. He always defeated players with better equipment and overwhelming skills, always holding back for being too strong. But one day he was invoked into another world, appearing in the body of his character, Diablo, finding two girls, a Pantherian and an elf, who claimed to have summoned him and that he should be a slave to one of them, but due to his ring's ability, the magic has rebound back against them, becoming his slaves. Takuma has poor social skills, resulting in him speaking as his character to communicate; it comes off idiotic (to readers) since he doesn't grow out of this, despite the fact it causes more problems than necessary.

In the real world, he is a withdrawal who is absorbed in games, and has a so-called "communication disorder" personality that makes it difficult to converse with others, especially with the opposite sex. From now on, I'm surviving with a demon king role play. Perhaps because of his personality, he dislikes male and female couples, and especially when he witnesses them getting along, he reveals a tremendous amount of anger. Aside from his inner feelings, he hides himself by pretending to be a "demon king" and conversing with an arrogant tone, but due to his own habits, Shera and Rem are half aware of it.

In addition, the corner of the head is removable. Shera and Rem have become a husband and wife, and since he became the husband of the first princess, Shera, he has become the king of the Kingdom of Greenwood.

Personality:
  • His true personality is that of an introvert who has trouble talking to women. He gets jealous of couples in the game and uses his character Diablo to annihilate them as a form of catharsis.
  • As Diablo, he projects a haughty persona although his true personality sometimes slips.

Abilities[]

"Both in-game and in real life, I've always played solo."

Diablo

On Earth as a human, Takuma Sakamoto has no outstanding abilities except for being an expert at playing video games, especially Cross Reverie. He got his character Diablo to the counter-stop level of 150 as a Sorcerer, he has mastered all of the Elemental magics and had the Combiner sub-class. The arrangement of his stat distribution and skills, his job-class title is 《Sorcerer of Annihilation》. When he came to the other world and became his game character, he could use them as well and he could even adjust it to make an ice cup filled with water appear out of thin air. Also after coming to the other world, he might have picked up the chef sub-class and may have surpassed level 150 as a Sorcerer.

He manipulates a large number of elemental magics that are not widely used in other worlds, and his level is overwhelmingly high, so half-baked attacks will not work. Since magic is reflected by the effect of the item equipped, it boasts no loss except once in the work.

He has been appraised by Emile Bichelberger as level 40 Warrior when they first fought & met. He decides to level up after facing the Fallen who infiltrated the Kingdom of Greenwood in Volume 7. In Volume 8 he trains and ate Gold Fruit to level up to get the current Master Swordsman Graham, Graham Sasara, to teach him to reach pass the limits.

At the time of the game, he was only able to use magic, but after being defeated in a match with the Graham Sasara, he was keenly aware of the reality of this, and by increasing his level of swordsmanship with his own knowledge, there is one thing that can be raised. It broke the concept in the game that there is only one.

《-SKILL-》
SKILL:
  • Omit》: Omits the charging (aria) of magic.
  • Underwater Movement》: Allows easier movement underwater.
SPELLS:
  • Return》: Magic that is the basic of the basics. It allows a person or party to return to the last town they had visited.
  • Ice》: A low-level spell that conjures and manipulates ice.
  • Water》: A low-level spell that conjures and manipulates water.
  • Light》: A low-level Light Attribute spell. A ball of light that flies towards the ceiling (or open air), and once it hits (or reaches a certain height), it bursts and light spreads out in the room/immediate area. This is a magic spell created by Diablo in his spare time practicing magic as a counter-measure for night warfare. He can also imbue objects with it.
  • Fire》: A low-level spell that conjures and manipulates fire.  
  • Arm Scrap》/《Arm Break》: A weapon destroying spell. It has no effect on equipment that was greater than Rare. This means that it is restricted to weapons that have not been bestowed with magic. It has no use in Player battles, but it does have an effect in drastically shaving off the offensive ability of monsters that possessed weapons.  
  • Stardust》: Level 30 Water Type spell. A weak magic. Its visual effects (sparkling hexagonal ice crystals fluttering about) is showy. When used by a magician with a short charge time, it is possible to fire it in rapid succession in the surrounding area around the opponent to use 《Stardust》's visual effects as a smokescreen.  
  • Bit Arrow》: A spell that conjures an arrow of light and shoots out toward the enemy. Its power is low and has a high hitting accuracy.
  • Explosion》: Level 50 Fire spell; collecting the hydrogen within the atmosphere, it ignites that spot using magical power.
  • Flare Burst》: A superior version of the 《Explosion》 spell. It can cause a rare Critical Hit and sometimes Fumble.
  • Air Shoot》: A spell as if a squall had blown in. It separates the opponent to a distance away from the caster.
  • Lightning Bullet》: A high-ranking Lightning spell. A bullet of Light that is shot at the opponent.
  • Dark Bullet》: A high ranking Dark spell. A bullet of Darkness that is shot at the opponent.
  • Dark Press》: A spell which produces a black sphere of Darkness that is thrown/tossed at the opponent. Manipulating gravity, it would flatten enemies that were in its effect range of 5 meters. It also has the special effect of putting the enemy in a Bind status for a while.
  • Dark Flare》: A spell that conjures a black hellfire.
  • Dark Burst》: A spell that causes a soundless explosion.
  • Black Lance》: A spell that summons and launches a jet-black lance.
  • Darkness Rain》: A spell that creates Darkness arrows that downpour like black rain on the opponent.
  • Aero Shredder》: The highest grade Chemical Element Magic of the Wind attribute under level 100. The target of the spell is wrapped up in a green flash with a thunderous roar being raised as the target is cut into pieces.  
  • Burst Rain》: Level 70 ranged spell; A ball of fire appears in the sky and bursts open together with a thunderous roar. Clumps of flame that were about the size of fists will rain incessantly on the spots the caster aimed at.
  • Super Mine》: Level 80 Earth attribute planting-type spell; It is a trap that would break out from the aimed at the ground, and bestow damage on the opponent that passed by above it. The damage it gave was small but with its characteristics being the time until it activates being fast, it was a magic meant to bring down monsters and Warriors that were filling in the distance.
  • Freezia》: Level 80 Water spell; putting a brake on the molecule's motion with magic, it makes them freeze. A magic that would freeze the target's range.
  • Volcanic Wall》: Level 80 Fire and Earth spell; Flames were made to spout out from the ground like an eruption and make a flame wall.
  • Freeze Zone》: Level 90 Ice spell; it would freeze a small targeted range. It would also bestow the speed reducing bad status 《Cold》.
  • Heaven's Fall》: Level 100 Earth spell; it gives damage over a vast range by making countless meteorites appear. By determining the aim with an FPS point of view, the meteorites could be guided to a certain degree, and it was possible to increase the power in exchange for narrowing the range. Hard to use against small opponents, but extremely effective against gigantic monsters and large groups of opponents.
  • Cross Blizzard》: Level 110 Wind and Water/Ice spell; Two tornadoes springs forth. All that touched them were frozen over, and on top of that, they were smashed to pieces due to the winds.  
  • Matoi Izuna》: A Wind and Light spell; by cladding a kamaitachi in lightning and firing that at the opponent, it would tear the opponent apart from the inside. While it would continue to bestow slip damage to the opponent for a fixed amount of time and paralyze them, it had the effect of bestowing large damage at the end. The "large damage" is a pure white explosion caused by a pillar of light that engulfs the opponent.
  • Hercules Lance》: A level 120 Light Attribute spell. Creates a 5m spear of light.
  • Naraku》: Level 130 Darkness spell; The effective range was touch--meaning it would only happen to the opponent it was touching. A magic spell that creates a minuscule black hole that forcibly imprisons the enemy in an airspace of darkness. The power is high and the effect is tremendous with only a 5% chance/probability it will Fumble and fail.
  • White Nova》: Level 150 Fire and Light spell; The strongest magic spell that Diablo can use. On the tip of his staff, a pure white fireball about the size of a ping-pong ball is produced. The fireball then falls to the ground at a lax speed. The instant the fireball touches the ground, it will split open in a pure white flash with a thunderous roar--a disintegrating annihilation due to magic power should be repeatedly happening in the effect range of the attack. The effect range is a semi-circle that went about twenty-something meters forward from the caster's feet. Its power is tremendous enough to defeat a high-level monster in one hit. However, the weakness of such a powerful spell is the huge MP consumption along with how it took time until the spell is invoked (Diablo needed thirty-something seconds until the spell was invoked).
  • Apocalypse Abyss》: A 《Forbidden Spell》. It established magical power points in thirteen spots and was something close to a 《Formation-type Magic》. Its power was high but with a long prep time which only makes it useful against an opponent that moves in a limited space. Within the set range, pillars of light rise up from the thirteen magical power points. The four classical chemical elements raged about and physical objects changed into dust entirely. Lightning ran around, magma blew about, and things that were frozen burst in an instant. A current of magical power was swirling about.  The four classical chemical elements that were spouting out became a tornado tinged with lightning and rose to the heavens swallowing up the area in the set range and causing immense damage. This magic possesses the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind. Against a being of the Darkness attribute, it has an extremely high effect.
  • Flight Magic》/《Adzet》: A magic which makes objects float. The caster can control how high, which direction and speed of the object. It has a limited effect time.  
  • Gravity Abyss》 A multiplex magic.
    • Dark Arc Seek》: A maximum magic that makes a bow arc with limbs made of darkness.  
    • Black Hole Arrow》: A maximum magic that makes a black hole sphere.  
  • Air Block》: Creates an invisible barrier harder than concrete in the air.  
  • Lightning Sphere》: A three-meter sphere covered in purple lightning that slowly moves forward.  
  • Absolute Zero》: One of the Water Attribute's strongest magic. Any and all kinetic energy is completely and eternally lost. The target was limited to one person, and the spell won’t activate unless done at zero distance.  
  • Darkness Cannon》: A high ranking Darkness Attribute magic. It fires a jet black cannonball of condensed magical power.  
  • Grand Tornado》: A maximum magic. Makes a tornado.  
  • Earth Bounce》: An Earth Attribute magic. Creates an earth tremor. It does not affect whatever is within a 3-meter radius of the caster.  
  • Virus Cloud》: Poison magic. A level 110 Darkness and Wind Attribute magic. It makes a black cloud of poison and spreads it forward.  
  • Lightning Arrow》: A Light Attribute magic. The superior version of 《Bit Arrow》.
  • Glakius Cannon》: It was magic that fired a clump of ice. However, the ice that was generated through Diablo’s powerful magical power was a gigantic lump of ice that was bigger than a single adult.
  • Sonic Boom》  
  • Thunder Axe》  
  • Rust Burst》  
  • Chain Lightning》

Suspecting Rem is keeping secrets, Diablo forces her to confess in private that the Demon Lord Krebskulm was sealed inside her body ever since she was born. Celestine is the only one who knows, and they have been working on a way to extract and slay Krebskulm without killing her. Diablo vows to help her with her problem.

Diablo teleports himself and Shera back in time to save Emile from being killed. Vengeful for all the people Gregore hurt and killed, Diablo humiliates him with his magic until he begs for mercy, then kills him. After funerals are held for the people killed in Gregore's attack, Shera attempts to seduce an exhausted Diablo, only to be attacked by a jealous Rem.

Medios explains a master can remove a collar by pouring their magical energy into their slave's body.

Depressed about being abandoned again, Diablo mopes, but Rem and Alicia eventually deduce that Shera was hypnotized and the group plots a rescue. Keera chains Shera up in his tent and interrogates her on her relationship with Diablo, not believing her when she says Diablo did not touch her. Keera unleashes a fabric-eating slime creature to destroy her clothes and prepares to rape her, but the group arrives in time, having already defeated his guards.

Disappointed in Krebskulm's weaker form and refusal to kill, the Fallen Eulerex appears and attacks her, but Edelgard and Diablo drive him away. As they approach Faltra City, Edelgard leaves since Fallen are not welcome. They change Krebskulm's name to Klem to avoid a panic.

Klem orders Edelgard to never kill mortals again. Rem asks Alicia why she did what she did and she reveals her past suffering and desire to wipe out the mortal races.

Transcription: "Dai Shushinkan" (Japanese: 大主神官)
Fumihiro Yoshimura Kazuyuki Fudeyasu Satoshi Kuwabara April 9, 2021
Diablo inadvertently rescues the priestess Lumachina Weselia from assassination by the Paladin Gewalt, easily defeating Gewalt and leaving him frozen in ice. As Lumachina had been praying when Diablo appeared, she now believes Diablo is God, which disturbs him. Lumachina explains to Rem and Shera that only God and her future husband are allowed to see her naked, and since Diablo did unintentionally see her underwear either he must be God, or she must marry him. Backed into a corner, Diablo instead insists his identity is a secret, allowing Lumachina to continue believing he is God and appeasing Rem and Shera’s jealousy. Lumachina believes the Head Cardinal of her church wants her dead for investigating his corruption, so she had been looking for Head Paladin Batutta for his assistance. Diablo agrees to escort her to Zircon Tower City, as he remembers that the dungeon he built in Cross Reverie is located there. Lumachina also meets Klem and Edelgard and they instinctively do not get along, so Diablo decides to leave Klem and Edelgard behind, though Klem does upgrade Shera’s bow to a demonic ebony bow before they leave, to keep Shera safe.

Takahiro Tamano Kazuyuki Fudeyasu Satoshi Kuwabara April 16, 2021
When the group arrives in Zircon Tower City, a child named Horn who had explored the first three floors of a newly discovered dungeon offers to be a guide; the description confirms it is Diablo's dungeon, implying it was summoned along with him. A woman begs a priest of the Paladin Brigade to heal her child of a deadly disease called Death Knell, but is denied because she lacks money. Diablo defeats the priest when he gets violent and Lumachina heals the child. A monstrous sand whale attacks the city and Diablo tries to fight it, but requires the help of Batutta and the city's leader, Fanis Laminitus, to drive it away. Batutta apologizes for his subordinate's behavior, but Fanis heavily taxed the church, making them desperate for funds. Fanis says God is not real and the Church are just swindlers. She tries to shoot Lumachina, and when Batutta blocks it, she says that since God did not stop her, that proves he is not real, then leaves. Lumachina is appalled that many people have Death Knell and are denied healing due to lacking money, but Batutta says they must be pragmatic. Batutta takes the group to his mansion and serves them food. While Diablo and Shera bathe, Batutta and his maid meet Rem and Lumachina for a discussion.

Just as Lumachina deduces that Death Knell is actually a curse, not a disease, she and Rem are drugged and abducted by Batutta and his maid, Shiliu. Horn spied on them and warns Diablo and Shera. Lumachina and Rem wake up tied to crosses in an underground altar where an orgy takes place to extract the evil essence this releases to produce Death Knell. Batutta reveals that he has experienced no tragedy and has no excuse for his actions other than he enjoys being evil. His plan is to corrupt Lumachina with lust so he can make a Death Knell powerful enough to assassinate Fanis. Diablo, Shera, and Horn arrive before Shiliu can sexually torment her. Diablo and Batutta battle with Diablo at a disadvantage because using his power risks triggering a cave-in. Diablo is impaled, but survives and takes off Batutta's arm. Shiliu threatens Rem, but Shera shoots her with an arrow that turns her to stone, while Horn unties the girls. Batutta declares they have already lost and makes a final attack that Diablo counters and Batutta is apparently killed, but this triggers a cave-in. They escape, but discover Lumachina has Death Knell. As she cannot heal herself, Diablo says they must enter the dungeon, as he had stored an item that can heal. Meanwhile, the Fallen Varakness attacks Fanis in her bath and warns her that his army will attack Zircon Tower City soon and then he will force her to join his harem before leaving.

They explain their plan to retrieve an item from the dungeon that can cure everyone of Death Knell, but she doesn't believe them and orders them arrested. They escape when Diablo triggers an earthquake. Gewalt arrives and offers Fanis his services, learning of the dungeon. Four days later, the group arrives at the dungeon deep in the desert, but Lumachina does not have long before the Death Knell will kill her. Diablo conceals the fact that he built the dungeon. After defeating the guardian at the entrance, they encounter a labyrinth. Horn had prepared a map, but it is useless because the walls shift over time, so Diablo simply blasts through the walls. After battling monsters, they are suspended in a basket over a river of lava and must answer trivia questions to pass, which they achieve. To pass another level, they must entertain an army of ape-like White Jaegers with a song and dance routine. On another level, they must move along a narrow ledge above a raging river. Gewalt ambushes them and nearly kills Lumachina, but Horn tackles him and they both fall in the river. Diablo tells the others to keep moving and jumps into the river to save Horn.

She wakes up and explains she is an orphan who dressed as a boy to gain respect. While waiting for her clothes to dry, she says he reminds her of her father. Rem, Shera, and Lumachina get through several floors but are attacked by Gewalt again. A massive black dragon appears and attacks them all. Gewalt summons the fire spirit, Ifrit, but the dragon destroys it and critically injures him. Lumachina heals him despite him being an enemy, but he remains unconscious. Diablo and Horn arrive. Though weakened without his staff, Diablo injures the dragon, who attempts to escape, but the maid golem Rose appears and kills the dragon for cowardice. Diablo recognizes Rose as his faithful NPC ally, while she recognizes him as her master and lets them into the treasure room. They go to a white ox statue that heals Lumachina of Death Knell when she touches it. Diablo gets new clothes and a staff while Rem and Horn reluctantly change into revealing outfits that Diablo explains will strengthen and protect them. Shera puts on a ring she finds. Rose is jealous of the other females in Diablo's life, but is placated when Diablo gives her a hair broach.

While Lumachina visits the city's church, Diablo and Rose learn Edelgard works at a bakery with Klem and Celestine as the usual customers. Klem warns Diablo that she senses something powerful in the Royal Capital. A criminal organization led by the Measmos family has been pressuring the bakery owner to pay protection money. When some Measmos enforcers come and ruin Klem's meal of biscuits, she beats them up and leads Edelgard, Diablo, and Rose in storming the Measmos mansion, but Diablo has to remind the others not to kill anybody. After taking out all the guards, they confront the boss and decide to intimidate him into doing good deeds to atone for his crimes. As everyone regroups and has dinner, Chester Ray Galford appears and says their actions were witnessed and Klem is accused of being a Demon Lord and must be destroyed. Fortunately, the bakery owner and several others appear and thank Klem for stopping the Measmos, and say the Measmos have been making amends for the people they hurt. Chester concludes anyone who could inspire such goodwill couldn't be a Demon Lord. The next day, the group leaves Klem and Edelgard again and travels to the Royal Capital.

Rose becomes jealous, but relents when Alicia says she would willingly die for Diablo. As they eat, Horn says she wants to be stronger. Rose presents a slave collar and says if Horn wears it and makes a Master-Servant contract with Diablo, his power will flow into her, but Rem and Shera warn that if Diablo dies, she will die, plus other demerits of wearing a collar, so she refuses. After explaining to Alicia what is going on, she agrees to investigate the Head Cardinal, Vishos, but warns that the Law cannot touch the Church. That night, Rose asks Diablo to recharge her magical energy, and he is embarrassed when this involves touching her intimately. The next day, Alicia presents evidence that Vishos and his followers have embezzled funds from the Church and have murdered several people. Alicia wants Diablo to destroy the Church, but Lumachina insists on presenting the evidence so she can excommunicate Vishos and his followers. The group bids Alicia goodbye and goes to the city's holy ground, finding a ground-based church and a massive floating church in the sky. When Vishos appears, Lumachina denounces his crimes and orders him excommunicated, but he counters by accusing her of lying and of neglecting her duties and orders the group seized. His guards and the worshipers believe him and attack the group. Horn gives in to fear, manages to escape, and runs away. Lumachina asks the group not to fight as blood cannot be spilled on holy ground, so they surrender and are transported via a levitating platform to the floating church.

Horn inadvertently activates a Holy Grail she took from Diablo's dungeon and a tiny fairy-like girl named Babylon appears. She explains she appears to those who offer blood to the Grail and an embarrassed Horn remembers urinating in it and decides not to tell her. Babylon offers to make Horn stronger, but her spell doesn't work. With little options, Horn puts on the collar. Babylon helps instruct her on her new powers like bewitching men to fall in love with her as they infiltrate the floating church. Just as she reaches the group's cell, a Paladin attacks and injures her. Enraged, Diablo breaks down the door. Horn is disappointed that they could have escaped on their own and so she tied her life to Diablo's for nothing, but Diablo thanks her for snapping him out of his foolishness in obeying Lumachina, as he is a Demon Lord and obeys no one. He gives Horn a healing potion, then defeats the Paladin after a little difficulty. Diablo flies outside and bombards the church with lightning while demanding Lumachina. When she is presented by guards, he sentences the worshipers to death; his plan being that Lumachina will rebuke him to save them and then he will pretend to fall to make Lumachina a hero. His plan goes awry when Lumachina agrees with "God" to smite everyone, believing the worthy will go to Heaven. Suddenly, Vishos unleashes a giant monster called Europa.

Vishos merges with Europa and boasts that he is a god, then starts smashing the church while trying to kill Lumachina. Diablo learns he is protected by a force field, so he asks Lumachina to cast Dispel to destroy the force field, but must protect her as it takes a long time to cast. Rose tries to help, but Vishos destroys her arm. Lumachina casts the spell, but Vishos resists it until the worshipers pray for her, empowering her and allowing the spell to work. With the force field gone, Diablo easily vaporizes Europa and Vishos, but to his chagrin, the worshipers start calling him God. Rem investigates the inside of the church and discovers that Gewalt, out of gratitude for Lumachina healing him, has resigned from the Paladins and killed Vishos' guards, then presents the key to the cell of Lumachina's friend Tria so they can free her. Lumachina decides to stay and repair both the church and its reputation, aware she must also investigate Vishos' connections. Diablo finally convinces Lumachina that he is not God, but she is grateful for his help nonetheless. Horn and Babylon decide to stay in Sevenwall so Horn can study magic, and Alicia takes them in. Rose is repaired and the group returns to Faltra. When Fanis learns what Diablo has done, she decides to visit Faltra to try to seduce him again. Shera brings up the ring she took from Diablo's dungeon and he is embarrassed when Rose points out it signifies marriage. Rem becomes jealous, so he says they will go on a quest to find another ring for her.
