"In the MMORPG Cross Reverie, Takuma Sakamoto is so powerful that he is lauded as the 'Demon Lord' by other players. One day, he is summoned to a world outside his own--but with the same appearance he had in the game! There, he meets two girls who both proclaim themselves to be his Summoner. They perform an Enslavement Ritual to turn him into their Summon... but that's when Takuma's passive ability "Magic Reflection" activates! Instead, it is the girls who become enslaved! Though Takuma may be the strongest Sorcerer there is, he has no idea how to talk with other people. It is here he makes his choice: to act based on his persona from the game! 'Amazing? But of course... I am Diablo, the being known and feared as the Demon Lord!'"--Page [4] of cover.

Summary
"The MMORPG Cross Reverie’s top player, Takuma Sakamoto, is summoned to another world and forced to play the role of the Demon Lord Diablo! After purchasing a new set of rings with Sylvie’s help (and completely unrelated to a certain coupon he got), Diablo visits the capital. But he becomes involved in a certain incident at the sorcerer’s academy and ends up attracting the attention of the Order of Palace Knights. Taken to meet the king, Diablo grandly declares:“I am Diablo! A Demon Lord from another world!”Accepting a quest from the king, Diablo makes his way to the south, where Rem’s hometown is. But when they see her family’s home and business, Rem declares flatly –“They’re basically like the yakuza.”This is the eleventh volume of the adventures of an earth-shakingly powerful Demon Lord (or at least someone who acts like one) taking on another world!"
