I'm the Demon King and Lord, So What If My Subordinates Are All Witches?

[Infrastructure Building] [Multiple Female Leads] [No System] [Magitech Industry] [Rivalry Between Multiple Races]

Over a thousand years ago, nine heroes joined forces to slay the Demon King Ichi, ending the brutal rule of the demon race.

Yet with the Demon King dead, the heroes lost their purpose.

The king grew suspicious of them, and the priests rejected them. And so the heroes were renamed witches and cast out by society!

Today, more than a thousand years later, the Demon King Ichi has inexplicably reincarnated as the powerless, illegitimate son of a duke.

The old duke was utterly biased against him. As soon as Ichi came of age, he sent him to a border territory to serve as an administrator for a beast-eared girl.

He called it a test of character, but it was no different from exile.

Fortunately, Ichi retained his magical talent from his previous life after reincarnating.

The strength of the Stone Ox Clan, the agility of the Moonlit Rabbit Clan, the lightness of the Bop Chicken Clan, the stealth of the Spirit Snake Clan, the spirit-bestowing gift of the Mystic Rat Clan...

But this body was far too frail. So far, it had awakened only the Astral Projection talent of the Nether Sheep Clan, which allowed the soul to leave the body.

One person alone couldn't possibly develop a territory. He had to recruit all kinds of talent.

But what sane person would travel all the way to a place of exile to serve a penniless, unknown lord?

After much thought, Ichi decided to take a desperate gamble and recruit those... witches everyone feared!

They were hunted by the church and forced to hide like rats in the streets. If he could offer them shelter, they'd naturally be willing to stay and help.

Everyone feared the witches, but Ichi was the exception. After all, he was the Demon King~
