溫馨奇幻出道小說《魔王大人的退休生活》
當毀滅世界和屠殺勇者變得枯燥乏味,身為魔王,除了在顛峰期引退,還能有什麼選擇?在這部充滿笑點、溫馨卻又帶點狠勁的溫馨奇幻出道小說《魔王大人的退休生活》中,魔王決定解甲歸田、平靜地種種蘿蔔,沒想到小村莊的「平凡」生活竟比毀滅世界還複雜!
加羅努斯一世(Galornus Prime)曾是萬國之災、希望終結者,以及原罪的主宰者。所有值得一做的事他都做過了,有些甚至還做了不只一次。
他的退休計畫很簡單:養隻山羊、安分種田,並極力避免一不小心又征服了什麼東西。然而這個計畫可不包含參加讓人抓狂的鎮民大會、課後幫孩子們上戰鬥特訓課,以及與他有史以來最強勁的宿敵開戰——也就是住在隔壁、高齡七十三歲且酷愛種玫瑰的寡婦。
即便身處退休期,邪惡也從不沉睡……但它會種蘿蔔。
當貪腐的官員與貪婪的商人群起威脅到他那些令人抓狂卻又無比討喜的鄰居時,加羅努斯面臨了全新的挑戰:如何在不暴露自己就是家長拿來恐嚇小孩吃蔬菜的「恐怖大魔王」的前提下,保衛這座村莊。
《魔王大人的退休生活》是一部帶有狠勁的溫馨奇幻小說,在這裡,最艱難的戰鬥不是擊敗勇者,而是如何成功退休,並在歷經 444 世的大魔頭生涯後,學會該如何真正生活。
The Demon Overlord retires to farm turnips in peace, only to find life in a small village far more chaotic than he ever could have anticipated in this laugh-out-loud debut cozy fantasy with teeth. Includes an exclusive bonus adventure coming 8/25/26!
When destroying the world and killing the hero grows boring, what's a Demon Overlord to do but quit while he's ahead?
Galornus Prime was the Scourge of Nations, Ender of Hope, and Master of the Cardinal Sins. He had done everything worth doing. Some of it more than once.
His retirement plan was simple: get a goat, farm quietly, and avoid accidentally conquering anything. The plan didn't include soul-crushing town halls, after-school combat lessons with children, and a war with perhaps his most worthy nemesis yet: the rose-growing, seventy-three year-old widow next door.
Even in retirement, evil never sleeps...but it does plant turnips.
When corrupt officials and greedy merchants threaten his infuriatingly loveable neighbors, Galornus faces a new kind of challenge: saving the village without revealing he is the monster parents invoke to make children eat their vegetables.
The Demon Overlord’s Retirement Plan is a cozy fantasy with teeth, where the hardest battle isn’t defeating heroes―it’s staying retired and learning how to live after 444 lifetimes of villainy.
