Caught up in a Hero Summoning, Kaito was sent to a different world āTriniaā, where he spends a year in peace until the Festival of Heroes takes place, but meets a Demon girl, Kuromueina, and falls in love with her. However, Kuromueinaās true identity was actually one of the rulers of the Demon Realm, the Underworld King! Furthermore, people from the Demon Realm and God Realm started appearing one after another around Kaitoā¦ā¦ After having been invited by the Emperor of Archlesia Empire, Kaito somehow ends up having a drinking contest with the War King, and finally learns of the threat posed by the mysterious Phantasmal Kingāāāā
What is the Festival of Heroes?
This is a festival held once every 10 years in honor of the achievements of the First Hero who defeated the Demon Lord and became the bridge of friendship between the Demons and Humans, where a person from the same other world (Earth) as the First Hero is summoned and invited to play the role of Hero. The one who plays the role of Hero is treated as a guest of honor for a year before the main festival occurs, and after the festival, they would be able to return to their world.
The 23rd day of the Water month.
Iām currently in front of a stone gate with a huge magic circle drawn on it. This is the gate that connects the Human Realm and the Demon Realm, and it seems that you can use this gate to teleport to the various gates in the Demons Realm.
Incidentally, in order to go to the Demon Realm, you need something like a pass, and it seems that it takes at least 10 days for that to be issued. Yesā¦ā¦ Itās that card that Phantasmal King No Face gave me the other day. Moreover, itās been thoroughly signed under my nameā¦ā¦ She probably took my appearance and had it issued. How should I say thisā¦ā¦ I donāt really like how it feels like everythingās running at the palm of her hand butā¦ā¦ Itās certainly as most people would say, itās good since I didnāt have to wait for the permit to be issued.
[Welcome, Iāll be checking your permit.]
[Here.]
[ā¦ā¦Yes, everythingās fine. Which gate would you like to go to today?]
[Errrā¦ā¦ That one near āForest City Yggfresisā]
[Most certainly. This way, please.]
The attendant led me to stand in the center of a large magic circle. Thereupon, the magic circle began to emit a strong glow, and in an instant, the landscape changed. And when I closed my eyes in front of a stone gate, I opened them in front of a wooden gateā¦ā¦ Arriving in a place that could be called the center of a large forest. I didnāt need to look for my destination as thereās someone waiting for me.
āHello there, Kaito-san. Welcome to the Demon Realmā¦ā¦ Welcome to Yggfresis.ā
[Lillywood-san, hello. Iāll be in your care today.]
Lillywood-san had previously told me that if I were to visit Isis-san, she would show me around, and just as she suggested, she would help guide me today. Itās really reassuring that Lillywood-san, one of the peak beings of the Demon Realm, the Six Kings, and she who seems to have a wealth of knowledge, would be the one guiding me.

In the Southern Mountains of the Demon Realm, a giant shadow stepped forward along with a thunderous roar.
[Magnawell-sama!? W- Where in the world are you going?]
āā¦ā¦What, I donāt want to miss this chance. No matter how much I think about all these information I see, in the end, I canāt measure his value until I see him with my own eyes.ā
Hearing the words of the High Ancient Dragon who spoke to him with a startled look, his leader, the Dragon King Magnawell, told him with a voice that seems to reverberate in the earth. Saying that if heās going to measure āthat personāsā value, he would have to meet him in person.
āHe has already met 5 of the Kingsā¦ā¦ And just the other day, driven away the threat of the War King. Fufufu, interesting, Iāve not felt my blood boil in a long time.ā
[ā¦ā¦I will be going with you.]
āDo as you please. Well then, I shall be on my wayā¦ā¦ to see for myself the face of that youngster Miyama Kaito.ā
Speaking in a calm voice, but held within those words were strong interest, the Demon Realmāsā¦ā¦ no, the worldās largest beast walks forward, shaking the earth with each step.
Now, in order to determine the true value of the Pole Star, he who shines the strongest even among those who came from another world, with his own eyesā¦ā¦
