There once was a Skeleton Demon King so dreadful that even the gods were vexed by him.... more>>

"If you do our work for us, we'll turn you into a human."

However, the gods deceived him with a fraudulent contract and sealed him away.

"Now that the Demon King is gone, let's eliminate all demons."
"For demon subjugation and evangelism alike, let's entrust it to the precious [Saint] on our behalf."
"As for that insolent Skeleton Demon King... let's torture him for life, imprisoned within a maggot."

That's definitely what happened, and yet.

"Oh my, baby Saint, you're awake?"

He had become the Saint?
Moreover, the son of a Duke of the Holy Empire that sustains the gods?
Then, if he destroys this country, won't the gods also be destroyed?

"Oh my, why does the baby Saint seem so pleased?"
"Baby Saint, this is the hateful Skeleton Demon King's toy. Would you like to break it once?"
"The great gods have reclaimed everything from the Skeleton Demon King who insolently challenged a god despite not knowing his place."

...Let's destroy this country.

Let's destroy it while taking the gods' backbones as well. <<less
