Volumes: 3 (most recent one released April 2024)Synopsis: Meet Cello, the priest of light. He, alongside his fellow comrades, worked together to defeat the Sixth Demon Lord. However, his victory was short-lived, as a curse laid by the Demon Lord's dying breath hit Cello, turning him into a demon himself. Betrayed by his own party, he's kicked out, lost his fiancée, and banished to the demon realm.
In his exile, Cello meets Lucy, the daughter of the Sixth Demon King, who tells him that that he holds enormous power now. Now, in what was once enemy territory, the demon turned priest starts a new life with the demon lord's daughter.
Comments: I'm gonna be honest, I only learned about this from Manga Mogura tweeting about a manga adaptation. I know that JNC has had its fair share of "fired from the hero's party" novels, "reincarnated as a demon" novels, and "now I'm living a slow life" novels, but what about a series that combines those all together... with tomatoes too?
