Wonder if this actually was Baal. It seemed like things were going his way before the interruption.

I honestly can't disagree with Baal here.

We know Behemoth was in the lab Baal has hidden away. Worst case this is Kirio doing his own thing but I honestly think Baal plans to target the demon god with this move. Either way I think he can spin this to his favor.

I think what I'm most interested in this chapter is why Baal specifically put Bachiko up for nomination for the extra seat. what does he have planned for her?

I think it's just a misdirection; he's nominating someone he has no ties to because it will sow the maximum amount of chaos. If he just nominated his own lackey it would be easy to accuse him of making a power grab.

Wouldn't he be aware that Bachiko was already going to be elected to a seat until Narnia's bid was submitted? She's the best person to push this idea forward if the goal is to free up Delkira's seat.

Yeah, it's just that she's the most popular and qualified candidate to accomplish his primary goal of unseating Delkira. Her being affiliated with his political enemies just makes him seem reasonable and bipartisan.

This would be more of a big deal if I really believed that Iruma would actually have kept this secret for so long if the plot didn't demand it.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.



Before you run off to read it be advised that this "new chapter" skips two chapters ahead. Cant find any translations for 301 or 302.


Really would've appreciated if the person above had mentioned it!

yeah DO NOT READ THE NEW CHAPTER, it's 303 while misfit has only released up to 300. I thought we were getting a "flash forward" sort of chapter that would then go backwards to show what happened, but no, I didn't notice the chapter number when I started reading and got spoiled.

mangadex usually has a warning for when there's a gap between the last read chapter and the one you're about to read, dunno why it didn't trigger this time.

I think that only happens when you're reading multiple chapters and hit "Next". Otherwise it'll let you jump straight to a link without complaint.

If you click chapter 303 directly mangadex doesnt give a poo poo. If you click on a prior chapter - whether you start at chapter 1 or chapter 300 - once you hit the end of chapter 300 and click next it'll tell you there's a gap.

Did you forget the entire Idol competition arc that ended with a declaration of love by a female idol of another female idol. The former also known as a lady killer and having a harem of idols as well?

Alice is Iruma-sexual. He doesn't care if Iruma is male or female or any other gender. He just wants to bottom for Iruma.

I legitimately think there are trans demons because like 70% demon girls seem to have heart shaped tails and like 70% of apparent dudes have arrow shaped tails but no one seems to give a poo poo about Lied having an arrow tail. About as certain as i could be without actually going back and checking each tail in the series

Or just not really caring about gender considering Opera.

Spoilering just in case but I hope if Kirio does tell Alice that Iruma is human and asks him if he is curious how Iruma would taste, Alice responds with "Of COURSE he'd be absolutely delicious! He's Iruma! I already know that without tasting him!

Even if everyone found out about Iruma, he has a ring that can suck out all the power from every single denizen of the demon world so it isn't that big of an issue.

The ring doesn't have an infinite capacity so once someone strong enough just force feeds it some mana Iruma is wide open as he'd have to expel that mana before he could get that passive drain thing going on again. At least that's what I assume I have no idea if the ring could do that AoE thing if it isn't empty. The real obstacle is that Sullivan wouldn't allow someone to threaten Iruma without a fight so it's a matter of whether the other greats would side against him or not.

yeah he'd be wide open, he'd only have to shoot a nuclear magic cannon before he could drain again

You just read a chapter where two of the most powerful demons in the world effectively restrained an entire room full of other skilled, famous, and influencial demons. They were also neutralizing many types of magics instantly and some demons appear to have cuffs put on their hands or suffering some debilitating physical ailment in the process. On top of that someone like Henry instantly blitzed Behemolt within seconds of registering the threat with a punch that would absolutely turn Iruma into red paste.

Sure, Iruma getting a full ring is giving him a nuke, but the whole thing is that he's still a literal glass cannon. And without a higher command or knowledge of magic I imagine it would be very easy to counter him were he to actually have the Netherrealm after him. There's a reason why the power of friendship is his greatest ability.

After Paimon gave Iruma that advice about how it's fine to have someone you hate and fight back with all your might, I really hope the following chapters has Iruma decide he's had of Kirio's creepy bullshit and tell him to prepare for the mother of all rear end-whoopings.

Atori was fast enough that Iruma himself couldn't get out of the way of his grapple and needed to get help to survive that encounter. His danger sense is top tier but again, once we start throwing higher ranking demons into the mix it's no longer the perfect guard it previously was presented as.
