How Not to Summon a Demon Lord (異世界魔王と召喚少女の奴隷魔術)

-- Hurry it up! -- I'm trying!

We're being ambushed!

Get back!

Tria--!

Tria!

Oh poo.

No, that can't be the end.

I was enjoying our little game.

Weren't you, Lumachina?

Please, leave me alone.

God, hear my prayer.

Someone here cannot hear your voice.

Make your powers known

and lead us out of the dark with your guiding light.

Aw. How's that plan working out for you?

You think your angels can handle all this?

If they can grow flowers in empty fields,

and fill the rivers with schools of fish.

Wow, your skin is flawless.

I'm so jealous!

Huh?

Hello, Beast Mushroom! You're just in time!

Don't you hate it when you try to set an example

of pious purity and then someone sends along

a Summon to shatter your dreams?

Oh, they went there!

Please stop. Please.

Can we discuss this?

I hate it here!

Why'd they stop?

Um, God?

This weather is everything!

I was gonna say that.

Which means I had the same thought as you,

and now I'm drowning in self-hate.

No you're not!

But if you are, sunbathing naked will help!

Uh, no. Not even a little bit.

You'll get an all-over tan!

You don't always have to strip!

Elves are such pervs!

Not true!

No one sunbathes with their clothes on!

It doesn't work!

Okay, fine.

So pick an activity that doesn't require random nudity!

It's not random if you're sunbathing!

Quit being such a pooper pants!

Get drunk on that validation.

Just another day in virtual paradise.

It's been some time since Rem and Shera

summoned me into this game.

Cross Reverie.

How am I supposed to talk to girls?

Right, I'll just act like I'm role-playing

as Demon Lord Diablo!

And I've been the Demon Lord ever since.

I got to fight Shera's freak brother

and the Greenwood Kingdom when they came for her.

And then crushed the Fallen like a champ.

I also released Krebskulm from inside Rem's stomach

and, you know, made her my slave.

That was cool.

I've done more than I ever imagined.

Overall, I'd say life as the Demon Lord Diablo is all right.

I don't hate it.

Tell her! I'm right! Rem's wrong!

You can't sunbathe with your clothes on!

It defeats the entire purpose!

Say it, Diablo!

Arm assault!

Assault with two deadly flesh pillows!

It's really not about sunbathing.

She needs to learn you don't have to

take your clothes off to have a good time.

And now I'm being stabbed

with the tiniest, angriest nubs!

We did not come here to relax or sunbathe!

We came here to test out a new spell.

So please focus!

Wait, a new what now?

It's called flight magic.

You're just now telling us?

I'll try it on this log first then attempt to ride it.

Stand back and watch.

You will do as I command.

I command you to fly!

Adzet!

You did it, Diablo! You made the big log float!

Yay! Yay!

You're gonna give yourself a black eye.

This is nothing to get excited about.

After all, I am Diablo,

the Demon Lord from another world!

Thank goodness it worked!

Now, let's take it for a spin.

Wait! Where are you going?

Hey! Not too bad!

Whoa! Spoke too soon!

It's still a little bit wobbly!

In the game, there was equipment

that let you fly through the sky, too.

Let's see. There should be some in that dungeon I created.

What's that? Someone's magic?

Wow! It's so pretty! I wonder what it could be!

It's a light.

Amazing. I've never sensed power like this.

Is it wearing off already? That was quick!

I think I lived.

Ouch. That's gonna leave a mark.

God?

No! Where did that come from?

And why can't anyone leave their clothes on when the sun's out?

Wow, you're taller and younger.

What now?

Look what you've done to my precious Beast Mushroom!

Who do you think you are--

falling from the sky unannounced?

Is that a Paladin?

Have you no respect for a man's mushroom?

That was the only one I had.

And now it's gone! You scoundrel!

I don't give a damn about your mushroom!

Do you have any idea who--

My savior!

Oh... You appeared in my moment of need

like I knew you would.

I've only ever heard your voice, and have always

felt lonely never being able to see you!

I'm Lumachina Weselia.

And I've been praying to you my entire life.

She's just standing there

with her honkers hanging out!

Where're your clothes?

I can't take you seriously like that.

What's wrong?

How could I present myself so shamefully

in front of God Himself?

Just. Here.

I hardly know what to say.

I never imagined we'd be swapping clothing.

Thank you. It's truly a blessing.

Well, this is awkward.

Do I have a cape "thing"?

So hot!

Wait, why is she referring to me as God?

You weren't clothed by God!

You're covered in filth!

That's an idiot dirty demon!

No, not exactly. You see...

I know that he's God!

He heard me pray to him!

That's why he's here!

He heard me from Heaven!

It's inevitable.

If I'm speaking to-- or around--a female,

I will be interrupted and then ignored.

Prayers? What kind?

She's got powers, too? Overkill.

Please be very careful, my Lord.

This man is a sinner unworthy of being your follower.

But his powers are well respected.

Okay, slow down, I'm not a god of any sor--

Don't say that about yourself!

It's true!

You're God!

No he is not! You know what, forget it!

I'll just kill both of you together!

It sounds like Lumachina has developed

a strong faith in her religion.

So why would an agent of the Church

be so interested in taking away her life?

Oh. That's cute.

You assume because I work for them

I know what the Church is thinking?

The reason I want her killed is because Vishos told me to do so!

I don't understand.

I get it now. You're a mercenary.

It's all starting to make sense.

What did you call me?

Those mercenaries wish they were worth as much as my toe hair!

That's it. How 'bout a shot of Hunger Worm for the road!

Mmkay. A Level Sixty Hunter Worm.

I guess that's to be expected from a Paladin.

It's on quite a different level

than the adventurers in Faltra City.

However! You're no match for me!

Is that a Level Eighty Trap Worm?

Now that's what I'm talkin' about!

A challenge! Gotcha.

Rip them apart! Aero Shredder!

I hate Elemental Magic so much!

Is that a high-level wind spell?

Your Summons are impressive

even though you're a total scumbag.

And you seem to know a good deal about

Elemental Magic from what I could see.
