A story about a demon king who becomes disillusioned with humanity and picks up a girl to make her happy.

A demon lord who has lost faith in humanity and schemes to dominate the human world. One day, while repeating his invasions, the demon lord picks up a girl from a certain village. He picked her up on a whim, but for the demon lord, that girl becomes a thread leading to a single ray of light. This is a warm yet somewhat dark story told from the perspective of such a demon lord. ※This novel is planned to depict one story from both the "girl's perspective" and the "demon lord's perspective." This version is from the demon lord's perspective. The girl's perspective version is a story about "a girl who has lost hope in humanity being picked up by the demon lord and finding happiness." https://ncode.syosetu.com/n1871gw/
