Synopsis

After centuries of conquering the world, defeating heroes, and torturing poor souls (because it’s his job), the mighty Demon Lord (Kayn) has had enough. The constant screaming, the hero attacks, the drama—it’s just too much. So what’s a legendary overlord to do when world domination gets way too exhausting? He quits. Yes, that’s right—Kayn packs up his evil cape, walks out of his dark fortress, leaves his minions awkwardly standing by the gates, and heads to a quiet village to open an inn. Why? Because he’s tired. He’s tired of the constant destruction. He’s tired of dealing with heroes who have no idea how to mind their own business. And honestly, he’s just here for some peace, quiet, and maybe a few naps. But being an innkeeper isn’t exactly as relaxing as it sounds. Kayn's inn quickly becomes a hotspot for mischief. There’s the local hero who insists on 'challenging' him (even though Kayn is clearly just trying to enjoy his coffee). Then there are the villagers who refuse to stop asking why he never smiles, and don’t get him started on the weird monster outbreaks that just keep happening around the inn. Will Kayn ever get the relaxing, hero-free life he so desperately craves? Or will he be dragged back into the chaos of his past, whether he likes it or not? One thing’s for sure: Being a Demon Lord is a lot easier than running an inn.
