Hayaku Yuusha ni Taiji Saretai Maou-sama

The Demon Lord has arrived in the human realm with her loyal followers in tow, but she's hiding a secret that absolutely no one can discover: she needs to be defeated by the Hero! Despite her fearsome title and powerful subordinates, what she really wants is to lose as quickly as possible and finally be freed from her role as Demon Lord. Unfortunately, deliberately getting yourself defeated without anyone realizing what you're up to is easier said than done. Will the Demon Lord manage to guide the Hero toward victory and finally achieve the defeat she's been waiting for? --- **The series has been on hiatus since October 8, 2022, following its last known update, Chapter 14.**
