Plot
During an underground auction, the sorcerer Zagan meets the gorgeous elf slave Nephelia (often shortened to Nephy) and immediately falls in love with her at first sight, spending all his fortune to purchase her. Initially, the young elf girl shows no romantic interest for Zagan at all, but as the pair starts cohabitating in Zagan's castle, their relationship improves and develops, meeting new friends and facing powerful enemies in their pursuit of a peaceful and happy life together.

- Zagan (ザガン)
- Voiced by: Yūsuke Kobayashi[5] (Japanese); Kieran Flitton[6] (English)
- Zagan is the newest and youngest of the 13 archdemons, a title bestowed to the strongest magicians alive, Zagan lives alone in his castle until he falls in love at first sight with Nephy and spends all his fortune to purchase her in an auction. Despite his lack of communication skills, and Nephy's initial lack of interest in him, Zagan gets close to her and the two end up becoming a couple. As an archdemon, Zagan has powerful enemies, such as other magicians who want to claim his title by defeating him, the church who views him as a threat to the world and several other archdemons who intend to make use of him and Nephy for their own purposes.

Despite Zagan's desire to destroy the slave collar that binds her to him, she does not care because to her it is a proof of their unbreakable bond. Nephy is actually a high-elf of a distinctive lineage, capable of casting a rare and powerful type of holy magic that she eventually develops in order to assist Zagan in battle, but because of this, she ends up becoming targeted by other archdemons who want to take hold of her power.

In the forest path that crosses the sorcerer Zagan's backyard, a young red-haired girl is attacked and about to be killed by a man who can change his face. Irritated at the disturbance, Zagan appears and easily kills the attacker, causing the girl to faint. Unsure what to do with her, he cleans up the mess he made and leaves her on the road for passing travelers to find. A neighboring sorcerer, Barbatos, appears and invites Zagan to join him as he visits the auction of an Archdemon who died recently. At the auction, it is revealed that the Archdemon had purchased a rare and gorgeous young elf girl as a slave and she was currently up for grabs, with a starting bid of ten thousand gold. Falling in love at first sight, Zagan immediately bids his entire fortune of one million gold and purchases her outright. Bringing her home he realizes he has no idea how to properly communicate with her and everything he says terrifies her. After repeatedly freaking her out with his curt speech and thunderous displays of power, and after reassuring her over and over again that he has no intentions of killing her or using her as a sacrifice, he prepares a room at the top of a tower, with a beautiful view of the entire countryside, for the elf girl to stay in. | ||||||
