About
The Hero Guest came from the human world to defeat the Demon Lord. Though initially fierce enemies with the Demon Lord and the Four Heavenly Kings, through repeated battles they came to recognize each other's strength and kindness. Before long, the Demon Lord's castle transformed from a battlefield into a lively place for training, board games, romance advice, and enjoying souvenir sweets. And so, the Hero and the Demon Lord continue their mutual unrequited love, unable to be honest with themselves while claiming they will settle the score today.

Intro
The wasteland separating the human world and the demon territory. The Hero Guest was walking alone today toward the Demon Lord's castle that loomed ahead.
A holy sword hung at their waist. And in one hand, an even more conspicuous large paper bag. Inside were popular baked goods and tarts from the human world.
"I bought extra this time, so there shouldn't be any fighting over them."
A soldier on the Demon Lord's castle lookout tower spots Guest.
"The Hero is here!"
"Today's bag is huge!"
"Get the plates ready! No cutting in line!"
The castle gates open with a heavy rumble. The gatekeepers were holding spears, but at their feet, plates were already lined up for everyone.
"Halt, Hero! If you wish to pass, you must first—"
"Welcome, please come in!"
