Magic - Page 135

Deep in the unexplored reaches of the dungeon, a corpse is discovered—one that shouldn’t exist. After Iarumas is resurrected, his memories of life before death are gone, and he spends his days delving into the dungeon to retrieve the bodies of dead adventurers. Can they be revived as well? Or will God reduce them to piles of ash on the altar? Either way, Iarumas collects his finder’s fee. And though his skills earn him some grudging respect, he’s also scorned for this cold, utilitarian attitude. The living keep their distance—Iarumas consorts primarily with the dead. That is, until he meets Garbage, a feral young swordswoman who’s the sole survivor of a massacred party. With Garbage by his side, Iarumas ventures deeper, scouring the dungeon for clues to his past, avoiding monsters, traps, and the inevitability of a permanent ashen demise.

The people of Ente Isla are living in constant fear and darkness. Notorious Demon Lord Satan has declared war on humanity in his quest for global domination. But when Emilia, a brave hero, puts a stop to his conquest, Satan and his devoted general, Alciel, retreat to Earth. In a bid to regain his power and authority, Satan faces the challenge of existing in a world devoid of significant magic. Despite this, he assumes a human persona and lands a job at a fast-food restaurant while Alciel searches for a way to restore their strength. As Satan grows ever more determined to conquer both Earth and Ente Isla, he surprises himself by climbing the corporate ladder as a full-time employee. Alas, his designs are once again thwarted by Emilia, who swears to vanquish him once and for all.
