The Misfit of Demon King Academy

Anos Voldigord was once a formidable Demon King known for his unmatched power and ruthless dominance. He eradicated humans, spirits, and even the gods, establishing himself as a tyrannical ruler of the demon realm. Despite his strength, Anos eventually grew tired of constant warfare and destruction. Longing for peace, he chose to reincarnate into a new life, dreaming of creating a world free from conflict and hostility.

After approximately 2000 years, Anos was reborn in a world that had drastically changed from the one he once ruled. Instead of a fierce realm filled with ongoing battles, this new world was peaceful, but at a cost. The various races, including demons, found their powers weakened over generations of peace. Magic, once vibrant and potent, had deteriorated into feeble remnants of their former selves. The descendants of the demon race, in particular, appeared to be far weaker and less formidable than their ancestors.

Eager to reconnect with his past and assess the current state of the demon race, Anos enrolls in the Demon King Academy. This institution is tasked with nurturing and identifying potential reincarnations of the legendary Demon King. It serves as the central hub for training young demons in magic and combat skills, aiming to prepare future rulers of the demon realm. Despite his true identity and unparalleled strength, Anos finds himself struggling to be recognized for what he truly is within the academy's strict and cautious environment.

However, the academy’s administration and many of its students fail to see Anos's real power. Due to the weakened state of magic and the superficial understanding of older legends, he is labeled as a misfit—a student who cannot fit into the traditional mold of the future Demon King. His presence is dismissed, and his abilities are underestimated, preventing him from gaining the respect and acknowledgment needed to ascend to his rightful place. This misjudgment leads to a series of challenges and conflicts that highlight the disconnect between appearances and reality.

Despite being branded as an outcast, Anos Voldigord’s true strength and intelligence remain hidden beneath his unassuming exterior. His journey at the Demon King Academy becomes not only a test of his abilities but also a quest to prove his identity and restore the greatness of the demon race. The story explores themes of identity, strength, and perseverance as he navigates a world that refuses to see his true power. Ultimately, Anos’s story is about overcoming misunderstandings and reclaiming his legendary status, even when others dismiss him as a mere misfit.
