DEMON LORD 2099

Long ago, Demon Lord Veltol was defeated in battle by the Hero, but thanks to his reincarnation magic, he has returned after 500 years. Veltol is keen to resume his world domination once more, but his vassal, Machina—one of the Six Dark Peers—reveals an unexpected truth.

Veltol learns of his former vassal Marcus’s betrayal firsthand. Meanwhile, Machina shows Veltol around the city. While Veltol struggles to adapt to the completely altered world of the future, Machina introduces him to someone.

Following the advice of Machina’s friend, Takahashi, Veltol begins streaming games with a face reveal. He spends his days establishing his image as a streamer, using Takahashi’s strategy and influence. Meanwhile, Veltol goes for a stroll through the back alleys of Shinjuku’s outskirts one day, and Veltol is intrigued by the sight of a particular vagabond.

Veltol is asked to work as Takahashi’s bodyguard. Hoping to test the strength of his restored faith as well, Veltol planned to launch a surprise attack on the yakuza, but their run-of-the-mill heist leads to unexpected developments, swallowing the two of them deeper into the city’s dark underbelly.
