Synopsis:

In one sentence: The tangled love and hate between the Demon King, his nemesis, and his four-hundred-year partner.

In detail: When Yoriichi was young, he couldn’t fully understand why his father disliked him. He only knew that after an unfamiliar black-haired man appeared, his life changed dramatically. His mother recovered from her illness, his father stopped treating him with hostility, and his older brother could come play with him without being punished. It seemed everything was getting better. But just as Yoriichi began to feel fond of the man, he learned his true identity: the Demon King, who treated human lives as worthless, a beautiful flower with a hint of decay, blooming in a pool of blood. The course of fate was corrected once more.

“I understand now. I was born for the sole purpose of defeating you.”

When Michikatsu was young, he knew his father didn’t favor him, but that couldn’t stop him from caring for his younger brother. Then an unfamiliar black-haired man appeared. He held a high position, and even their father treated him with the utmost respect. Thanks to this gentleman, Yoriichi was able to live a normal life. But when Michikatsu learned of Yoriichi’s astonishing talent, everything changed. The younger brother he had once needed to protect became the stronger one, and Michikatsu also learned the man’s true identity…

But could even such a powerful Demon King really be no match for Yoriichi?

Only when he held the Demon King’s frail, shattered body tight in his arms did Kokushibo hear the Demon King’s thoughts: “Kokushibo, I need you.”

Eternal years in exchange for unwavering loyalty.
