When Kaito Yamazaki, an ordinary Tokyo office worker, awakens in the icy confines of the Netherworld, he’s thrust into a nightmare far beyond his comprehension. In a world filled with dark corridors, ancient prophecies, and malevolent forces, Kaito is declared the Demon Lord—destined to lead an army of creatures he never knew existed. But all Kaito wants is to return to his cramped Tokyo apartment, where the biggest challenge was choosing what to watch on TV.
Trapped in a realm that defies logic, Kaito is faced with a choice: accept his new role and save the Netherworld from an impending doom, or refuse and risk being consumed by the darkness that stalks him. But with each step he takes through this terrifying new world, Kaito’s sanity is tested, and the lines between reality and nightmare blur.
