Volume 3 - 1st printing.

Written by Yukiya Murasaki. Art by Takahiro Tsurusaki. Translated by Garrison Denim.

After being summoned to another world that looks almost exactly like the MMORPG he once played, Takuma Sakamoto now spends his days going on adventures with Rem Galleau, the black-furred Pantherian, and Shera L. Greenwood, the Elf princess, both of whom accidentally became enslaved... to him!? One day, he is suddenly approached by the Fallen, Edelgard, with a request: Would he help her to undo the seal that keeps the Demon Lord Krebskulm inside Rem? Takuma, under the guise of his in-game character Diablo, hesitates, but he pushes through with his Demon Lord role-play and actually agrees! "I will revive the Demon Lord Krebskulm-and defeat them!" Now it's his Demon Lord role-play vs. an actual Demon Lord!

After being summoned to another world similar to the game he used to play, Diablo lives a tumultuous life in this new world after he finds himself the unwitting master of Rem the Pantherian and Shera the Elf; and now, even the Demon Lord-turned-young-girl Klem obeys him! One day, Diablo ends up rescuing a holy woman who was being pursued by a Paladin, and she turns out to be the most important person in the Church. Befriending her, Diablo and the others act as her escorts until they reach Zircon Tower deep in the Demon Lord's territory. After arriving in a new town, more difficulties arise, ultimately culminating in the appearance of a gargantuan monster attacking them!

Written by Yukiya Murasaki. Art by Takahiro Tsurusaki. Translated by Garrison Denim.

The High Priest Lumachina has been afflicted with a curse, and Diablo's only way of saving her is by reclaiming an item he once obtained in the game Cross Reverie. His next challenge: a dungeon that has claimed the lives of many brave adventurers. But his confidence isn't misplaced, for it was he who designed that very dungeon! Even when facing off against a supreme dragon, Diablo never falters, just like a true Demon Lord! Will Diablo be able to conquer the dungeon he himself created to retrieve the cure and make it back to defend Zircon Tower in time?

Lumachina has set out to reform the corrupted Church! Choosing to help her, Diablo finally makes his way to the Royal Capital. Even though a great battle against the Paladins looms ahead, Diablo is certain of his victory, for the new equipment he's gained from his Treasure Vault is overwhelmingly powerful by this world's standards. But before the battle can commence, the Church's believers stand in Diablo's way, powerless and helpless. Not wishing to fight them, Lumachina is imprisoned by the Church and falsely blamed for crimes she didn't even commit! The High Priest, the pacifist she is, accepts even this unjust treatment, but Diablo can't just sit idly and let that pass!

With Diablo learning of a ritual passed down by the Dark Elves that may be able to remove the remnants of the Demon Lord's soul still slumbering within Rem's body, he tags along despite her insistence to solve her personal problems on her own. Out of concern of course; it has nothing to do with the Dark Elves having gigantic breasts according to the game! R-Right...?
