One of the best dark webnovels I have ever read. Usually, the quality of the story of webnovel can't compare to normal novels, but 7th Prince somehow makes it.

Summary: The world is invaded by Demon, which is actually a human tribe that uses violence to deal with everything in their life. Because of that, there is war between humans and demons, and the human side is always losing. Desperate enough, our hero group has to do kamikaze (a.k.a su*cide mission to assassinate the Demon King) and fails miserably. After the reincarnation, he vows using his soul

that he will destroy Demon Kingdom, even when he becomes their Prince.

Again, let's sum up what you will expect from this novel.
    • Worldbuilding: Absolutely astonishing. Everything is well-thought and related to each other. There are multiple races, multiple ideologies, etc. Crammed into each other without the feeling of being forced in. Also, because this is adark

      novel, you will see some disgusting stuff that may make you vomit. And the best of all, somehow, the author makes the worldbuilding works realisticly.

      Spoiler

      Demon race values strength over anything else -> they become the strongest so nobody can beat them, and even in war -> they start fighting against themselves to show that they are the strongest -> a war is made so that they have the same enemy so that the country is united instead of a civil war.


      But, that doesn't mean love doesn't exist in that country. The mothers still love their children, but since they are a country of violence and they have a contract with corrupted devils, the best they can do is ease their children's suffering by transferring it into their bodies instead of curing them. This will later be weaponized into magic used in the war.[collapse]
    • Characters: very well-made. While many people are simpletons because demon country is a barbaric low-cultured country, the important characters are four-dimensional characters. Some people misunderstood the MC for being savage, cringe and edgy, but if you read further, there are lots of places that explain why MC behaves like that.Spoiler

      Let's take MC's mom. Because the King is chosen by being the strongest, they will kill their own father, other queens and princes to take the throne. So, her motivation is trying her best to make her son become the demon king and it's the only way for the to survive. This leads to her methodology of raising the MC in a cage that only aims at becoming the strongest and getting the throne and killing his siblings. Later, when her son's growth makes him more like a monster, she also reflects on this and thinks about whether she should raise him like a normal child. But, no matter what, she still tries her best to help her son to achieve his dream of becoming a demon king, and her evaluation and expectation become so harsh.

      For the MC: we are repeatedly shown that they have a loving family and subordinates to sympathize with, but in the end, the MC just casually 'But I will kill you all in the future'. People call it edgy. The story explains this shortly in Devil Contract act that his soul and personality have a lot of holes, making him a unique existence.

      Also, there is only 5 years since he is dead so he doesn't bond enough with the new family. Then, in later arcs, it shows that the qualification for being the hero is that you have to own a strong EGO to hate everything against humanity. That's right, his deep hatred of demons makes him a hero, not vice-versa.

      [collapse]
    • The theme: just like other dark novels, the theme circle around the tragedy and suffering of the people in the story. In order to save the human, our hero has to kill his own new family. In order to save his own country, the demon king is overworked to death and can't even see his own children. In order to become the king, the princes and princesses try to kill each other although they are a family.-> Also, this does one thing that other LN or WN unable to do: it makes you question that if by chance, one character, especially the MC, just stops doing what they are doing, and try to enjoy their life, maybe the world and their own life will be better. But no, they are driven by something: desires, common senses, goals, etc. So it is extremely hard to break the circle of suffering.
In conclusion: if you like dark stories like Lobotomy Corp that are devoid of comedy and focus solely on the dark stuff like tragedy and action, 7th Demon Prince is a very good choice. Yes, the story is really plot-heavy, so you will not have mild slice-of-life stuff like in Executioner and Her Way of Life or Roll Over and Die. The start of the novel is a little bit weird but if you read far enough, you can see that everything has its own reason to be there, and things fit in like puzzle pieces.
