content

The world is ruled by demons, whose king people regularly have to make a sacrifice. Saliphie grew up as the 99th demon victim and had a tough childhood. But she is not afraid to speak her mind to everyone's face. So did the Prime Minister and the Demon King at the offering. In contrast to the earlier victims, she does not want to beg for her life, but praises the soft and gentle paws of the king. He soon lets Saliphie, who was supposed to be locked up as a victim, explore the palace and takes her on a journey. This arouses displeasure among his subjects. Some of them want to venture a revolt against the king and are just waiting for the right moment. So far, the sacrifices have been used to ensure that the king shows his strength. But now the king has fallen in love with the girl and this with him. He wants to marry her and make her his queen, which leads to even more contradiction among the demons.
