Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf wo Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii?

Zagan is a powerful sorcerer feared by nearly everyone, but he knows almost nothing about ordinary human relationships. At an auction of a deceased Archdemon's estate, he sees an elven woman named Nephy and falls in love at first sight, spending everything he owns to bring her back to his castle.

The problem is that Zagan cannot express kindness without sounding terrifying, while Nephy's past has taught her to expect cruelty from anyone who holds power over her. Their life together begins with constant misunderstandings, yet genuine care gradually appears beneath the awkward words. As dangers connected to the strongest sorcerers and the church close in, learning how to cherish Nephy becomes a challenge for Zagan every bit as difficult as magical combat.
