The Demon King Yi Er transmigrates to another world and assumes a secret identity as an ordinary adventurer.
The good news: He still has all his powers, and his subordinates and the entire Demon King's castle have transmigrated with him.
The bad news: His life force is sustained entirely by faith. In this godforsaken place, he has no followers at all, and his subordinates are scattered across the world.
Yi Er: ...
To stay alive, Yi Er has no choice but to set out to gather faith and find his subordinates.
On his first day in the other world, Yi Er acquires a human slave.
Facing the slave's hopeful, grateful, sparkling eyes, filled with the feeling of having been rescued, the Demon King Yi Er says haughtily, "My name is Lan Ze. I order you to worship Lord Yi Er."
The slave tilts his head. "Worship... Lord Yi Er?"
On his second day in the other world, he cultivates man-eating demonic plants to threaten the villagers.
By his hundredth day in the other world,
Yi Er has forced the villagers to move as hostages and gathered assassins from far and wide. He has done everything a Demon King is supposed to do.
Yi Er, looking ferocious:
"Hurry up and worship Lord Yi Er! :)"
Using these violent methods, Yi Er gains quite a few followers.

One day, a strange man arrives in a human village.
His name is Lan Ze. He claims to be an ordinary warrior, yet he has many powerful friends.
The infamous fortress commander kneels at his feet, fervent as a devoted kitten.
The kingdom's sage is overwhelmed with gratitude, bursting into tears when they meet and rushing over while shouting something about the Demon King and bonds.
The Empire's Regent, a ruthless killer, follows him around every day, tugging at his sleeve and pleading for comfort.
Humans: ...No matter what powerful figure he meets, he always looks so innocent. This man's strength must be terrifying!
Later, the seeds of the demonic plants Yi Er cultivated begin attacking nearby monsters on their own, and villagers can pick up meat in the forest every day, ending the famine that had plagued the area for years.
After the villagers move, their former settlement is invaded by a neighboring country, and they narrowly escape disaster.
The assassination organization has run out of work because Yi Er killed all the villains, so its members have no choice but to help the locals plant rice and dig fields for wages.
Humans, overwhelmed with gratitude: He really is a great man hiding his true strength!
-
The Demon King Yi Er has hidden in the human world and lain low for years. At last, the time has come to unite it all, and he reveals his secret identity.
"I am the Demon King Yi Er. Surrender at once!"
The entire crowd freezes. The humans gaze at him with fervent admiration.
"Lord Yi Er!!!"
Yi Er looks up and is stunned.
Wait, why does the hero statue in the square look exactly like him???
