Description

-Wait, this adorable little monster is S-Rank?! * “Hmm… only two viewers today as well… I wonder why…” Mao Arisugawa, a high school girl dungeon streamer, used her youthful and cute appearance to do laid-back “strolling streams” where she casually wandered around inside dungeons. However, because her content lacked any excitement, her live viewership never grew beyond a consistent two viewers. Mao’s greatest joy was doting on her favorite dungeon-dwelling monsters, or as she called them, her “oshi-mon.” She would pet and cuddle slimes, fluffy sheep monsters, and even gentle-eyed spider monsters as she wandered the dungeon. One day, after finishing her usual dungeon stream, Mao continued admiring her oshi-mon as always. That was when she encountered an unbelievably adorable (at least by her standards) fluffy wolf monster—one she had never seen before. “Whaaa!? What is this?! A super cute little mon-chan I’ve never seen before?! Wait, hold on—” Ignoring everything else around her, Mao immediately began fawning over the creature and, without realizing it, disappeared with it deeper into the dungeon. However, she had no idea… That the monster she was cuddling was actually an S-Rank irregular monster—Orthros. Or that she had accidentally saved Tomo Kamiwara, better known as “Tomo-sama” a hugely popular dungeon streamer with 1.5 million subscribers, who had been on the verge of being killed by that very same Orthros. “Wait… she tamed an S-Rank monster?! Who is this girl?!” —And then, the internet exploded. “No way LOL” “Did she just call herself the Demon King?!” “She touched Orthros, and now it’s acting all tame…” “She’s got more monsters following her—she’s literally a Demon Lord LOL” “She looks like a little girl, this is suspicious in so many ways” “Hurry up and track her down!” As footage of Mao affectionately cuddling an S-Rank monster spread, people began whispering rumors that a new Demon King had been reborn in modern times. And so, despite her hopes of building a wholesome, pure-hearted image… Mao became a legend overnight.
