Tourou

Bram, the mightiest of all dragons, seeks a death worthy of his long life—one earned through an all-out battle. He finds a glimmer of potential in Ragnaru, a girl training to be a hero in a world otherwise devoid of the strong. To put an end to the "Hero Hunts" plaguing the land, Bram strikes a deal: he will train Ragnaru, and in exchange, she must be the one to kill him. Thus begins his grand plan to cultivate the ultimate hero capable of taking his life! A heartwarming yet dark fantasy about a dragon’s final days and his quest to groom a hero.

The Demon King has had a rough day. Just when he thought he finally defeated the hero, he came back. And back. And back. And sooner or later, the hero who constantly resurrected was bound to defeat a Demon Lord who couldn't. And he did. The hero vanquished the Demon Lord, peace spread across the land, and so on and so forth. The End. That's it. That's the whole story....Kidding. The Demon Lord sent his soul to a empty vessel, which saved his life but unfortunately also is incredibly weak. So what’s a Demon King to do when he wants to rule the world, but couldn’t even defeat a child?Official EnglishWon the 2nd Shinchosha Bunch Manga Award
