THE HEALING POWER OF FRIENDSHIP ​The incident in Megatholium has ended with ties severed among the five superpowers. On the surface, things seem disturbingly quiet—until tensions mount between Laville and Asylas…and Ginny is taken as a hostage! It’s up to Ard, Ireena, and Sylphy to save her, but things rarely go that smoothly, especially when their well acquainted nemeses are involved: Elzard and the masked figure. It’s a race against time to rescue their dear friend... and stop a certain mastermind from wreaking havoc all over the world!

When being mediocre is the best-case scenario As the most powerful entity of all time, the Demon Lord Varvatos thinks life is a big fat snore. When he takes matters into his own hands and decides to reincarnate, he calibrates his magical strength to be perfectly average. But there is no way he could have predicted that everyone in the modern world would be weak as hell, which means he is totally overpowered once again! Reborn under the name Ard, he has ladies fawning over him, the royal family begging him to become the next king, and an ex-minion insisting on killing him?! But Ard has a one-track mind, and he won't stop at anything to achieve his ultimate goal!

Here Comes Trouble... One of Lydia's former soldiers, Sylphy Marheaven, is starting to suspect that this "Ard" character might just be the reincarnated form of the Demon Lord. So when she discovers his whereabouts, she packs her bags and transfers into his academy, dead set on finding out his true identity. And as if Ard's hands aren't full enough, he's got the upcoming school festival to think about, which should be fun...besides Sylphy surveilling him around the clock and the threatening letter he's just received. But, of course, isn't everything a breeze when you're the greatest Demon Lord?

A DAY IN A LIFE OF AN EX-DEMON LORD Lurking in the hallways of Laville National Academy is a beast even the instructors fear, one who goes by the name of Ard Meteor. His average day can take any form: working as a member of a secret organization serving the queen; going toe-to-toe with an ancient god slumbering in the school dungeon; saving a young girl brainwashed by an Evil God; protecting the school when all he’s ever known is flipped on its head; even transforming the world—all for a certain champion. The typical nobody may pray for a normal life, but his daily errands prove his reality is anything but!

A BLAST TO THE PAST Ard may think he's just gearing up for a little class trip, but the world always seems to have other plans for him. As he and his friends are riding along to their destination, a self-appointed "god" sweeps them back to ancient times-for reasons unknown. To return home, their best bet is to earn an audience with Varvatos, Ard's past self (which is definitely a little weird). Then they find out there's someone else in this version of history claiming to be the Demon Lord...! But if wading through this topsy-turvy mystery is the only way to get back to their era, so be it. Ard's never been one to back down from a challenge!

THE PAST ALWAYS COMES BACK TO HAUNT YOU The end of one adventure marks the beginning of a new one. Ard and Ireena are summoned to serve as the queen’s guards in the holy city of Megatholium. Just when Ard thinks he’s managed to shake off one Heavenly King by leaving the city, another seems to take its place. This time, it’s Lizer, the old general. Apparently, he’s claiming he’s the pope of a religion that worships the Demon Lord…and he intends to brainwash the people to achieve world peace. Ard and Ireena begin to expose his nefarious plan, but it seems the pope has plenty in store to keep them on their toes!

TO THE REAL JOURNEY! A trip to the ancient world has undone the curse of Lydia the Champion, releasing Ard from a lifetime of agony. Now he can finally focus on the true adventure before themÖtheir field trip to the old capital of Kingsglaive! However, itís becoming clear he canít stay out of trouble for long. A run-in with another chaotic ex-member of the Four Heavenly Kings seems to prove Ardís propensity for mishaps, and it certainly doesnít help that Ireena and Ginny have started brawling for his attention. Their school trip has only just begun! What else could possibly go wrong?

A rescue mission against all odds? Racing through the city—a familiar landscape turned unrecognizable, devastated by magic and violence—Ard and his friends attempt to save Ireena from one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Lizer. After surviving back-to-back fights against the enemy, the heroes spot a single path forward to rescue their friend and save the world... But things turn from bad to worse when they run into Mephisto, an impossibly malicious character and the archnemesis of the Demon Lord. As Lizer torments the rescue party’s psyches and tears open old wounds, he inches closer to completing his utopia...Is nothing sacred anymore?
