The Demon Lord’s Bride (BL)

Getting transmigrated inside a novel is not really a bad thing—you know the story, you have the power of the future in your hand, you know all the hidden keys. You might as well end up as the most powerful and omniscient being in that world. That is, if you don’t wake up during the epilogue. And yet I find myself in the body of a fallen priest at the end of the novel, a tragic hero who had his mana circuit broken in the last war, being shunned, drown in debt, and destined to die not long after. Fortunately, I know just the cure. Unfortunately, the cure was in the hand of one of the Demon Lords—you know, the race that my kingdom just wage war with. Would he give me the cure if I asked him politely? There’s no harm in trying, right? I’d die if I didn’t get the cure, anyway. “Sure, but you have to be my bride as the price,” the Demon Lord said. ...huh? Sir, you know I’m (technically) a priest, right?

The Demon King.

It was a title with a completely different concept than the Demon King I had in mind while consuming Earth's culture. The word 'King' had always been used to illustrate the highest ruling authority, but with the Demon Realm, the 'King' acted more like a religious leader.

Which was rather weird to me, since the demons didn't look religious at all. Was it because there was no big worship activity? There was no obligation to do any worship aside from the New Year. Each community had a habit of praying during harvest and going to the Temple during hard and important times, but it was more cultural and religious.

Or perhaps because the King showed himself to the public--well, it was my first time, even. Since the governmental position had already been carried by the seven Demon Lords, there was no need for the King to show up unless a matter that might destroy the Demon Realm came out.
