The Reluctant Demon Cult Leader

Though I hold the title of the youngest leader in the Demonic Cult’s history, my true desire has always been a quiet, ordinary existence. Fate, however, had other plans. When my father, the infamous Heavenly Demon Asura, died unexpectedly, chaos consumed the cult. A violent uprising forced me into hiding, and for a brief moment, I thought I could escape my destiny. But Poong Cheon, my father’s most trusted ally, refused to let me walk away. He relentlessly pursued me, demanding I take my place as the 16th leader of the cult. No matter how much I resisted, the weight of my lineage and the expectations of those loyal to my father dragged me back into a role I never wanted. The freedom I craved slipped further away with each passing day, leaving me trapped in a life I never chose. The cult’s dark legacy now rests on my unwilling shoulders, and I must navigate its treacherous politics while longing for the simplicity I was denied. Every decision I make feels like another step away from the peaceful future I envisioned. Yet, despite my reluctance, the path ahead is clear—I must embrace the power I never sought or risk losing everything, including myself. The struggle between duty and desire defines my existence, and there seems to be no escape.
