A Demon King's Guide to Starting from Zero

First: You are the “Demon King.”

Second: But in reality, you are not the Demon King.

Third: You are human, but not “human.”

Fourth: This world has many races, but one is “missing.”

Fifth: You have many choices from the start, but they all lead to the same ending, because you determined that ending from the very beginning.

Sixth: To sustain the existence on the divine throne, the proper price must be offered every so often.

Seventh: The great God of Truth and Illusion reminds you that one of the points above is wrong. (Oh, and this one counts too.)

Eighth: “You” are cursed.

Ninth: You do not belong to this world, but “you” are part of it.

Tenth: One day, the trumpet of the end will sound throughout the world. The earth will split, the oceans will boil, and the sky will rain blood without end. Those are the tears of the god who commands the end. (Also, the God of Truth and Illusion would like to remind you that, if you wish, this blood rain can be changed into something else.)

Eleventh: Everything written about the God of Truth and Illusion is false to some extent. (Yes, dear, this one too.)

Twelfth: There is no twelfth. I've run out of ideas. That's it.

Thirteenth: Oh, the Thirteenth is a traitor. So, traitor, who are you?

(Lastly, the great God of Truth and Illusion reminds you that this book features gender-swapping and some mildly graphic, unhealthy scenes. Readers who can't handle that should proceed with caution.)
