The Netherworld
is the world where demons live.
The king who dominates the Netherworld
is the Demon King.
However,
the throne of the Demon King
has been left vacant for a long time.
Who will be the next Demon King?
-"Iruma-kun from Demon School." -"Iruma-kun from Demon School."
Iruma, I'll leave this to you then.
-Don't let this place fall apart. -All right.
If it falls apart, your salary will be deducted by half.
Iruma Suzuki, 14 years old.
He's currently being forced to work on a tuna fishing boat.
Simply put,
his parents are scumbags who do nothing.
So he has to work on their behalf.
I'll be screwed if I only get half the pay.
Danger!
"Sold"?
What? This is just…
What?
Where is this place? Who are you?
-Yorikuzuse. Yagabathuk. -What are you talking about?
Yoss.
I phrased it as such so you can understand the demon language.
Iruma Suzuki, this is the Netherworld.
The Netherworld?
It's also known as the Demon World.
Demon… What?
I can understand him.
I've cast a spell on you.
A spell?
I'm a demon. It's normal if I can cast spells.
A demon?
That's right. I'm a demon.
I'm Sullivan.
Iruma.
Your parents have sold your soul to us.
They sold my soul to the demon?
How is that possible…
Well, my parents are capable of anything.
What's that?
It's my mansion.
What are you going to do to me?
Would you like to be my grandson?
Actually, I'm single.
So I've always wanted to have a grandson.
A grandson?
I'm so envious when Levy and Beliard keep bragging about their grandchildren.
I can buy you anything you want.
I'll dote on you.
All right? Please?
But…
But I've been sold by my parents, right?
Can I still refuse?
I respect your wishes.
If you really don't want it, you can choose to refuse.
What… What should I do?
Ever since I was born,
I've never refused anyone.
That's right.
Iruma Suzuki is a yes-man.
Take care of it yourself.
It's fine.
People asked for his help.
Sorry for the trouble.
It's fine.
Or even when people didn't ask for his help.
It's fine! You don't have to come after me!
No matter how unreasonable things are,
he'll accept them and never say no to anyone.
He's a yes-man and he's sick of it.
But…
given the strange situation,
I should refuse him.
But if I did…
-Well, I-- -But!
Because of that, I'm begging you!
Please!
Consider yourself doing a favor for a dying old man!
Iruma, please!
The lists of phrases that make Iruma helpless.
First, "I'm begging you."
Second, "Help me out."
Third, "Please."
AGREEMENT IRUMA SUZUKI
Become a demon's grandson?
Iruma, who has been living a pitiful life for 14 years,
has the habit of agreeing to people's requests.
Next, since it has been decided.…
What's…
What's going on?
You're my first lovely grandson.
First, food, clothing, and shelter. Then…
What's this?
It's your education!
It fits you perfectly! How adorable!
I'll send you to a demon school.
A demon school?
Since you were a child, you've been forced to work because of your parents.
You didn't get the chance to go to school.
It's all right.
I've taken care of the enrollment.
After all, I'm your grandpa.
Grandpa?
It's so touching to hear you call me that!
Let's take a picture at the enrollment ceremony tomorrow.
Wait a minute.
No human has ever been enrolled in this school.
As long as no one finds out that you're human,
you won't be eaten by others.
I'll be eaten if they find out?
There you go!
This perfume can eliminate human scent.
Don't worry.
Well, I think I should just…
Fortunately, you were such a good kid in the human world.
If you got rejected,
I have no choice but to have you for dinner.
What did you just say?
Nothing.
This will be your room from now on.
Mine?
The enrollment ceremony will be held tomorrow morning.
Recharge your energy tonight. Good night.
Hey…
There should be a limit to your fickle-mindedness.
Opera.
You could have adopted any demons.
Why must you adopt a human as your grandson?
What are you really up to?
Nothing.
Well, you'll understand sooner or later.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
I've never had
a room of my own.
After all, I've been living in dire straits.
It's like a dream.
What a strange dream.
This isn't a dream!
Iruma.
Good morning.
Did you sleep well last night?
I'm so excited! My dear grandson's enrollment ceremony.
Let's take a picture.
Iruma, stand next to it.
You mean this one?
"Enrollment Ceremony."
I can read it. It's Sulli…
This must be my grandpa's spell.
I'm so happy!
My grandson is attending the enrollment ceremony!
He carries a new school bag. How young and cute.
Excuse me.
Are you Mr. Opera?
The school is at…
Over there.
That's the demon school, Babyls.
Good morning, everyone.
-Good morning. -That's too soft.
Good morning.
All right now.
I need to get ready. So I'll get going then.
Mr. Opera, may I know…
Be safe.
All right.
Hey, you!
Were you calling me?
As long as no one finds out you're human, you won't be eaten by others.
What if I got eaten?
The auditorium is over there.
All right. Thank you.
This is great.
Good thing no one found out I'm human.
Ms. President, what's the matter?
Nothing.
Little brat, what are you trying to do?
Showing off before the enrollment ceremony.
I'll become famous if I can take a teacher down.
Strength is everything.
I see. You're but a fool.
Hey, don't you think there's a nice fragrance?
Don't find out.
It'll be great if we're in the same class.
I'm so nervous!
It's a normal conversation.
Mami, Wu, Konchie, Keebow, Sin Sin, Ran Ran!
Could this be
just another normal school?
Be quiet.
Are those the teachers?
They seem so scary.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
It's now 6:06 a.m.
The enrollment ceremony…
of Babyls Demon School officially begins.
Please rise.
We'll sing the school song!
-All human beings -All human beings
-Are our food -Are our food
-Feed on their souls -I'm just air.
-Flesh, and blood -Flesh, and blood
-The flapping sound -The flapping sound
-Of black wings -Of black wings
-To those who tremble -To those who tremble
-We are demons -We are demons
-The song that pours -The song that pours
-From the bloody mouth -Don't attract attention.
-Let's sing all loud -Let's sing all loud
-We are demons! -We are demons!
Next, let's hear the speech from the principal.
Our future Demon King!
The Demon King? Is that the king of all demons?
Iruma.
Here I am!
He's the principal?
Iruma?
The principal's grandson?
That's right!
My grandson is enrolled here.
He is a lovely child.
Oh, please. Stop spewing nonsense.
Also…
This is the photo of my grandson and me!
He's making it public?
Who is that?
I'll have the photo distributed later.
No one wants that!
All right. That's all I have to say.
That's all!
Next, we'll invite the freshman representative to give us a speech.
-Really? He's a genius? -I heard he scored full marks.
Asmodeus, the freshman representative.
He's so handsome.
He's what we called…
Cast a spell on me.
He looks all right.
-Everyone is focusing on him now. -What?
The one who'll be giving the speech is
the honor student, Iruma!
Why?
What is this?
Iruma giving the speech?
The substitute?
No wonder!
Iruma, please come to the stage.
He's just a kid.
Look. He isn't moving at all in front of so many people.
He has quite some character.
I have no plan at all. I can't even move a single centimeter.
Please greet the students.
Greet them?
How am I supposed to do that?
In order to celebrate you
having a good student life free of any obstacles,
I shall give you my blessings as per below.
From, your grandpa.
Should I just read this out?
I have no choice but to read it.
Aberuhouke.
Tarutodari. Yusabebe.
That's weird. What's with the atmosphere?
Risotoru. Aburuzu.
Sutomanu.
Aberu.
Uru.
Mahoraba.
Suresaza.
-Seriously? -My goodness!
-For real? -This is awesome!
He made it!
-What? -Hey, you.
How can you go chanting forbidden spells?
Forbidden?
It's taboo.
If you stuttered or mispronounced it,
it would have blown your limbs off.
-This is common sense. -This is my first time hearing this!
It turned out to be such a dangerous spell.
You're just so dangerous and crazy.
It was awesome and interesting!
Someone who chants forbidden spells is either a fool
or a madman who's simply too bold.
May I ask you?
What is the effect of the spells?
If you manage to chant them,
you won't trip and fall for the entire day.
Great.
I'm Alice Asmodeus.
Hi.
Why would things turn out this way?
I heard the chief and the honor student are having a duel at the courtyard.
That's interesting!
Am I going
to be eaten?
I should be the one giving the speech.
You took away my chance to show off.
You should be punished to death.
Alice Asmodeus.
A demon who is good at using fire magic.
You've tarnished the stage that was meant for me.
So I have the right to test if you're a great demon.
Right?
Everyone is enjoying it?
Bring it on!
If you're better than me,
prove it to me
with your body!
As expected of Asmodeus!
I've never seen a freshman who is so good at controlling fire.
He's really good.
But none of the attacks hit him.
Hold on! Calm down!
Darn it!
I can't hit him.
For about 20 minutes,
Iruma has been evading his attacks.
Hey, you! Why can't I hit you?
Sorry.
The reason why he could dodge it all
is all because of his difficult and crazy life.
The hellish experience that his parents put him through
has made him a real expert
in dodging anything dangerous, scary, and painful.
I should just apologize to him at once.
Zero attack, infinity defense.
If we were to give it a name,
it's called "Overwhelming Crisis Evasion Capability."
Look. I'm so…
Iruma is really good.
He didn't even launch a single attack.
Does it mean he doesn't even bother to attack?
Are you trying to imply
that I'm not good enough for you to even launch attacks at me?
No.
I'm just like an ant.
He's saying that you're worse than the ants!
You should just get lost with your tail between your legs.
That's good. Keep fighting!
It's not like that!
What a humiliation!
Since magic doesn't work,
I will use martial arts to force you to submit to me.
I'm going to slice you into pieces!
Use the enemy's strength to avoid attacks.
This is one of Iruma's Overwhelming Crisis Evasion Capability.
Eiko!
Watch out!
I'm going to fall!
If you manage to chant them,
you won't trip and fall for the entire day.
What just happened?
Having a duel on the first day of school?
What's going on?
After that, those who witnessed this duel said…
That's right. It was an impressive
German Suplex.
I'm so dead.
He chanted forbidden spells at the enrollment ceremony.
He even gave the chief a concussion.
The impressive honor student gave a good account of himself.
That honor student is really something.
He saved the girl who was watching the duel.
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
As expected of my grandson!
That's a good start, Iruma!
What should I do?
I did something so horrible to him.
I need to apologize to him at once.
Asmodeus?
Lord Iruma, you've defeated me there!
I completely lost to you in the duel earlier.
Besides,
you even took me to the dispensary.
I, Asmodeus,
am deeply grateful to you.
Well…
As per demon custom, the loser has to serve the winner.
So…
I'll dedicate myself to you
and work to dominate the school together.
Hold it right there!
Let's go and have the freshmen under our command.
Lord Iruma.
Who would you like to start with?
Please give me the order.
Iruma.
Can I put this photo on the homepage of the school's website?
Please stop!
Iruma Suzuki, 14 years old.
Enrolled in Babyls Demon School.
He has got himself a subordinate now.
No!
Bumper.
Lord Iruma, if there's anything, just give me the order.
I'm cool now.
That's Iruma, who saved my life.
I would like to thank him.
If possible, I would like to get closer to him.
Iruma…
What's the matter?
No, but I could feel a presence.
That was scary.
That guy is so scary.
Will she get to thank Iruma?
Keep it up, Eiko!
NEXT EPISODE
I didn't expect to be the demon's grandson and got enrolled in a demon school.
Asmodeus.
You don't have to bow to me.
Don't carry me. I can walk on my own.
Hold me? No, that's not what I meant!
I don't want to ride on your shoulders!
Just put me down!
Next episode of Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun.
"Familiars Summoned."
I'm human. I can't possibly summon a thing.
What should I do?
