sadslime's manga / #Demon King(9)

Prince Ike has gone to defeat the demon king, but to his dismay, not only does the demon king's servant easily overpower him, the demon king himself just keeps running away from a fight. But the longer Ike stays at the demon king's castle, the more he gets to know them and starts to really like the kind and good-natured demon king. A very cute and pure-hearted romance from these two. Trigger warning: mention of suicide.

Ch.1-4.1 - The lazy Demon King Val just can't be bothered to do anything, and his faithful servant Rudy hates it because he wants to get the respect he deserves. In in effort to stir up Val's desires, Rudy suggests he bring in a nightly attendant, but Val says he can't be bothered to find someone and suggests Rudy do it, which pushes Rudy over the edge and he tops Val. But the next day, Rudy has run away and Val has no idea why and no desire to do all the things Val did to keep the kingdom running, so he's off to track Rudy down. These two are cute enough and I really like the character design for the demon king. No trigger warnings. Ch.4.2 - Aoi and Takuma are fashion students in university who worked together last year for the annual fashion show, and that's why Aoi knows how impossible Takuma's designs are to work with. He's desperate not to go through that again, but Takuma has already fallen for Aoi and is determined to win him over and be his partner in everything. Short and sweet. No trigger warnings.

Ch.1-2 - Villainess Alexia suddenly remembers her past life and that not only is she about to get killed by the demon she's tricking into sex to get his magic power, he's also her bias. But when she expresses her feelings, they live happily ever after. No trigger warnings. Ch.3-7 - Butler Hal isekaied into a game and found himself working for the villainess (and his bias) Laetitia who will go insane after a god grants her magic on her 20th birthday because of her purity. To save her, he tries to set her up with the male leads so that she can have sex with one of them, but failing that, he'll offer up himself. My favorite of the bunch. Trigger warning: mention of rape. Ch.8-9 - Isekaied into the role of the villain Sayuri, the FL has no choice but to let go of her love for her ex-fiance, Second Lieutenant Toba. But when a mysterious figure saves her from a freaky monster, she learns maybe Toba cared more than she thought. Trigger warning: noncon(monster).

A man is isekaied into a martial arts world as the Demon King, but he just wants to escape the demonic faction. Meanwhile, the alliance wants to make him lose his power through losing his virginity. More smut than story, not something I'll read again. Trigger warnings: noncon, rape.

Masakiyo is the hero Skull Black who spends his day being treated no better than a corporate slave while fighting evil. Meanwhile, he goes home to his enemy from work, Baphomet, who likes to teleport into Masakiyo's house and make food for him. Masakiyo is bewildered by Baphomet's intentions, but when Baphomet finally gets his love across properly, Masakiyo is surprisingly willing to give him a chance. A cute and sweet comedy. No trigger warnings.

A Japanese mountain god (later called Water Lily) finds an injured man on his mountain treating a deer's injury and begrudgingly takes him back to his shrine and heals him. The man, Kyouya, agrees to tell Water Lily about the city in return, and ends up getting physically intimate with Water Lily, only to steal one of his horns right after the act, rendering him powerless. Water Lily has no choice but to go to the city with Kyouya, but he finds that Kyouya takes good care of him and is so kind, that he doesn't mind that Kyouya took his horn, until he learns Kyouya only did it to give him to the emperor. I think Water Lily is an interesting character, and given that he's not human, the way he perceives Kyouya is fascinating too. Trigger warnings: kidnapping, noncon.

A slice of life story about the Rei, the demon king, and Aoi Yamato, a hero who was summoned to defeat the demons, who have since married. The chapters show Rei trying his best to learn how to be a housewife while Aoi goes from seeing this as a marriage in name only to actually caring about his partner. Very cute. Trigger warning: cheating.

Salaryman accidentally summons and sleeps with demon king

Asagi's dragon mother raised him with stories of her time serving the demon king Tenran, the most beautiful and powerful person in the world, so even though Asagi's father is a human and his only special power is the ability to turn into a dragon, he goes to serve Tenran after his mother's death. He finds Tenran to be flighty and out of control, constantly leaving to try to pick up men, but still Asagi wants to serve him, and it turns out, Tenran doesn't want Asagi to leave, either. This feels like it has three distinct arcs that each have a very different vibe, in my opinion, and it also felt like the author meant to continue it but didn't. Still, an fun read with a very pretty-boy uke. Trigger warnings: kidnapping, attempted rape, drug (aphrodisiac), attempted murder of an infant.
