Otherworld Demon King Survival Guide Chapter 183 Discussion

Warning: This novel has strong themes of r*pe and corruption, all perpetrated by the MC. Most/all of his female underlings he will have s*xual relationships with, and many of the latter are so called "monsters, " that have the intellect of children despite being in their adult forms. Do not read if you expect a MC to respect notions of consent or s*xual exclusivity; he sleeps with whomever he wants whenever he wants, a freedom not granted to the women of his harem (who also suffer from a bit of brainwashing from his corrupting influence and "Womb Tattoos." While he never purposefully hurts or harms his women, even for disobedience, and makes sure that is always extremely pleasurable for them, you should still not read this if these are unacceptable to you.

I'll spare you a full summary, but at the beginning of the story the protagonist is described as a weak demon derided by his peers who's sent to the Middle Realm (Lower Realm = Hell, abode of demons; Middle Realm = Earth, the world of humans, monsters and other humanoid species; Upper Realm = Heaven, dominion of angels). Being truly very weak and showcasing no particular powers at first, he's seen as disposable, and will essentially spend the first arc whining and worrying about dying, begging his relatives for help. He's a pretty simple minded individual too, in a way very pure hearted. Then he arrives in the Middle realm in a secluded backwater forested region where he recruits initially very weak monsters using his demonic abilities, and gradually grows much stronger along with his own forces, as he slowly makes contact with races from beyond the forest.

Some key points of interest:

1. He shows no hesitation towards mu*der. Incoming force of soldiery or innocent travelers, he shows the same willingness to kill them all (though it's very likely that he'll spare any beautiful women whom he'll then doubtless ravish and corrupt with his mana till they become obedient). To date he's not so much bloodthirsty as merciless and cognizant of how weak he currently is; to allow any humans to escape would spell death as soon as they call for a more sizeable armed contingent, and because he can't fully conceal his forces, any persons trying to investigate the forest for signs of unusual activity cannot be left alive (at one point seeing a well trained squad arriving in the forest he can't defeat he tricks them instead into believing that orcs instead were the culprits behind previous disappearances.
2. He loves his minions. As a demon of noble heritage he is capable of subordinating weak monsters, to whom he then often gives pet names as well as caring for them as best as he is able (referring to his own growing army as his family). He tries to keep them safe and happy, and whenever he himself grows stronger and acquires new powers will excitedly show them to the rest of his "family" who will congratulate him happily, and vice-versa. Among his powers is the ability to "enhance" his own subordinates, making them into stronger beings; he spends much of his time doing this daily, basically spending all his non-s*x time on consolidating his forces.
3. The r*pe. Oh boy. There's a lot of it. While many of his women he lies with do so consensually and enthusiastically, he captures the women he defeats and essentially r*pes them into submission, as s*x with him is always extremely pleasurable (he's not a sad*st in the least, and doesn't seem to enjoy inflicting pain at all) due to his incubus-like powers. Thanks to the above and his corruptive magical abilities, gradually any prisoners he acquires grow truly loyal to him, in part also because of how well he treats them. Expect the women he sleeps with to quickly become addicted to sex/m*sturbation due to womb tattoos and incubic s*xual prowess. That said, it's still a straight-male power fantasy; many/most of the women he lies with are virg*ns, and it seems they'll only ever have s*x with him. His male subordinates also seem to lose their libido.
4. The whininess really only happens at the start, he quickly becomes more confident in himself as his strength grows and later develops plans to conquer the Middle Realm (just a dream at the current stage). Being something very similar to an incubus (but stronger), s*x actually empowers him, and we're just scratching the very surface of his potential as of currently translated chapters.
5. There's no clear plan for now, currently the MC is in a reactive position, focusing on getting stronger and defeating enemies when they appear, with no real plan for the future except for a vague desire to eventually dominate the Middle Realm. There's a war between angels and demons to take over the Middle Realm going on in the background, and it's very likely he'll later become a significant force in the conflict, but for now times are bright and relaxed.

Overall, I strongly recommend this story (you may have to speedread through the first arc in Hell) for people looking for a power fantasy filled with s*x, with a protagonist with essentially no morals but no sadism either (quite the opposite).
