The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody
In his past life, he was known as Demon Lord Varvatos, an all-powerful magic user and ruler. But he was lonely after the loss of his friends and loved ones during his rise to power, so in his dying moments, Varvatos cast a reincarnation spell so that he'd get a second chance at just being a normal guy. At first it looks like that's going to work – he's reborn thousands of years later as villager Ard. Unfortunately for him, his memories are still intact and he's not aware just how much has been lost over the time he spent not existing, and it looks like that's going to cost him his normal life.

Typical Nobody
Due to the isolation caused by his strength, the Demon Lord Varvatos longed for a normal life, and after several thousand years he reincarnated as the villager, Ard Meteor. His dream is to forge bonds of friendship with other humans. However, even after turning 10 he still had yet to achieve his goal. During that time he has a fateful encounter with a young girl fighting monsters in the forest.
Non-Standard
Though he joined the magic academy, what awaited him was far from a normal life. Without realizing it Ard had already grown famous and he was quickly put on a pedestal by his peers. Then there was another problem within his class - the young girl, Ginny, a succubus, was being abused by Elraldo, a noble's son. Ireena then intervenes and Elraldo insults her. When Ard demands an apology, he is challenged to a duel instead.

Ireena tries to be even more considerate after that, so Ginny speaks of her true ambition. Then on the day of their date, the three run into a suspicious group of people.
Duel
Ireena finds herself constantly irritated at Ard's popularity. While Ard is trying to think of a way to soothe her, Ginny appears before him in an enticing outfit.

The two are about to explode at each other over Ard and they nearly start a duel when...?!
The Story of a Lonely King
Elzard is planning to use Ireena as a sacrifice to revive the evil gods and destroy the world. Yet why was Ireena chosen as a sacrifice? Ard appears before Elzard with new weapons in hand to rescue Ireena as Demons stand in his way. When Ireena's hidden secret is revealed, how will Ard react...?

The Mask Laughs
The play serving as a main event for the festival is starting up. Ard is playing the role of the Demon Lord while Sylphy performs as the Evil God, making Ard suddenly recall his battle against said god.

Yet when Varvatos reveals Lydia's true feelings and gives Sylphy permission to fight freely, Sylphy pulls off something incredulous...
According to a God
