Description
“Huh? Was I a grand archmage in my past life?” Sunghoon Lee, who worked as a so-called “porter” – helping awakened ones hunt and handling cleanup duties. After suffering near-fatal injuries from a monster attack, the shock triggers his memories of his past life. “It’s good that I remember, but… why is Earth like this?” From his perspective as someone who was once a master of magical engineering, Earth seems strange. “Level up? What kind of insane deity came up with this?” The awakened ones’ abilities that everyone took for granted. But could there really be power given without a price? “Well then. If I sweep everything away, something should come out of it.” The Demon Lord’s magic sweeps across the world!

My Thoughts on I Am the Demon Lord
"I Am the Demon Lord" has been quite the interesting read so far, and it’s easy to see why it's garnered attention, especially with its manhwa adaptation. The blend of familiar fantasy tropes with some unique twists kept me engaged, although I do have a few reservations.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of a protagonist armed with knowledge from a previous life, especially one who isn’t completely reliant on a system. The whole "reincarnated genius" angle is always appealing, but the potential for unique magic usage outside of the system felt like a breath of fresh air. It promised a character who could truly outsmart his opponents, and that's something I always appreciate.
What Works Well
The protagonist's cleverness is definitely a strong point. He's not just powerful; he's resourceful. The way he uses his past life's understanding of magic to accelerate his growth and even the world's development is fascinating. The idea of a character reaching demigod status and using that power to influence the world around him is pretty compelling. The integration of modern concepts, like nuclear power, into a magical setting also added a layer of originality that kept me hooked. The scale of the story seems grand, hinting at conflicts beyond the typical fantasy realm, which is a big plus in my book.

Final Verdict
Overall, "I Am the Demon Lord" is a worthwhile read if you're looking for a fantasy novel with a clever protagonist, unique magic system, and a scope that eventually extends beyond the planet. While I have some minor reservations, the strengths of the story definitely outweigh the weaknesses. I'd recommend giving it a shot if you're a fan of the genre and looking for something a bit different.
