Synopsis
After being defeated by the heroine Emilia, the Demon King and his general hurriedly flee to a parallel universe... only to fall into the hustle and bustle of modern, bustling Tokyo! Without the magic needed to return home, the two are forced to assume human identities and live ordinary human lives until they find a better solution. And to survive, Satan finds a job at a nearby diner! With his demonic mind focused on progressing through the management hierarchy, what will become of his thirst for conquest?!
