Synopsis

How is it you go about defining good and evil?
A question that has plagued the mind of our protagonist ever since he was born.
...............
Floid, a young man born on earth suddenly finds himself transported into a world of magic and demons after playing the mysterious game 'Rivalle'. But in this world, he is reincarnated as a demon instead of the regular hero he played as.
Join Floid as he paves his own path in this new world as a demons while facing suspicion for looking just like the greatest enemy of the demons, the hero.
.......
I'd like to put this here for all those who will be interested in reading. This book is not the sort of novel where the main character goes around taking all the abilities in the world for himself. Nor would it be a book where only the main character has screen time and we only focus on what he's doing as he goes around saving damsels in distress. I want to write a novel where all the characters have their personalities and trials. The readers do not have to love only the MC since all the characters have something worth relating to, they can like any of the characters.
There will be powers that the MC cannot have (Ever) and people the MC cannot fight (For now). Things will happen outside of the MC's control and he might never even know about it. If things like these aren't to your liking, or if you want a book where you just watch the MC run around and spawn crazy skills mindlessly, then this book might not be for you. But if you can stay with me on this journey, I promise to write something you'll love.

...........
This book will be a mix of magic, kingdom building and an absurdly interesting cast of characters. Everything that they do will be perfectly explained and all questions are welcome. Just like always, I will make a discord for us all to meet and see our favorite characters soon!
........
I'm currently working hard to correct some spelling errors in some chapters, so if you see any unfixed errors, please bear with me.
........
Please note, the harem will not be beyond five members and they will all be demon girls. The main character has a distaste for human nature and so he will not have any special relationship with any of them other than occasional sex.
Thank you and see you inside!

    Hello! Author here! This is my new book and I feel like I should lay out a few things so that you guys can know what to expect going forward 1) Like I will say in the first chapter, this is a kingdom building novel, but don't expect the regular route of kingdom building with alliances or handshakes, instead there'll be more of subjugation and invasions. 2) There will be a harem, and also demon maids. Don't mistake one for the other. The maids exist only to serve their master and perform 'whatever' task be required of them *coughs* 3) Expect a lot of kingdom building and world building. The MC won't be the kind that feels empathy towards every cute thing. He's a demon Lord so of course he'll be evil. I will admit that he won't even bat an eye at the d**th of human children or even babies. 4) The MC will have unlimited power but he had to train himself on how to use it. No story is interesting with just a quick power dump. Well, at least none of the interesting stories I've read are like that. And with that said, I hope to see y'all inside! P.S. I gave myself a five star just for kicks - like always xD. If you think I deserve it then please leave a review!

    This novel evokes mixed feelings in me. It's not the kind I like. Sometimes there are too many psychopic acts. I hope I don't get mental damage.

    One of the best I have ever read with a cruel Mc, yes a cruel Mc. He doesn't back of from his true side. He is the evil deal. I'm a simple man, I see a villan mc? I'm happy, I don't see a simp? I'm happy, I see over privileged brats getting spanked? I'm happy. And maids? who doesn't want one. The story somewhat gives a vibe of overlord. The side characters each have their own personality and not just some robots. The world is slowly revealing itself to us, so there no info dump of sort. And some lemons😈😈😈😈

    I wish I could rate it higher, but the constant change in pov in the middle of paragraphs and the chuuni-ish behaviour of the mc and the lack of IQ of many many of the character just keeps putting me off. this novel and the author is sadly too influenced by anime logic and such.

    writing quality = Very good with very less grammatical errors. story = trust me the story is really hooking. characters = every character is like the characters of OVERLORD (my opinion) but still diff and unique in there own ways. MC = The MC what you really need if you like OVERLORD anime or novel. My request to the Author ~ plz don't drop this masterpiece ever! EVER!!

    This Novel is not best , it is the bestest of all . As , I have read many novel those have tag villain but at the end they will act like a hero. But here he is best Villain I have read after "Why I should stopt being the villain" .I have also read many novel where mc reincarnated and when MC maid try to do it's duty he act like a virgin. And in some novel it said like a simp she have not to do this . Just really if they are the beta mc why not tell them also that you reincarnated and not your son . And in some novel even after betrayal MC again trust someone and in some novel he also forgive them sometimes. Really, that is the worsted things I ever see. But here nothing is like that . That's why it is really really really the best novel . Ohhh. If I have some suggestions I think it's that you just sometimes not write what they what to say like the overall talk they do is in there head . Ohh... If you have some free time you really have to see "Why I should stopt being the villain" I think from there you can take reference. Just trust in there the scheming of the MC as just the mind blowing.

    Writing Quality: 3/4 There are chapters that only has 2 or 3 dialogue. This type of writing style just not for me. Has some spelling mistakes but it's not that of a big deal, just the writing style. Character Design: 4/5 Because there aren't many dialogue I find it hard to imagine how they talk. But the author tell us their thought. Keep up the good work.

    Very good, like the title mc act like real demon lord. World building, characters, and conflict very intresting. Mc personalty very much alive, floid have high intelegent and uses his brain, not impulsive unlike common mc.

    I will religiously follow any author capable of dropping 16 chapters in a week. Haven't read anything but the plot, so for now rating will be 5 stars and I will adjust as I read. I read 480 words a minute so you can imagine why I will follow any author that can put out good content efficiently and keep up with my own pace of reading.
