Description
Bai Yang is the youngest son of a rich family who grew up spoiled, unambitious and having no one expect anything from him. He doesn’t really mind this though, because he’s still able to live a simple and happy life. One day, however, his older brother got into an accident and is now comatose. Bai Yang’s father now has to consider his youngest son to take over the family business. Unfortunately for him, Bai Yang is a weak, timid, and cowardly child. How can he ever succeed? Wanting to change his son’s personality, the father has Bai Yang transmigrated into the world of Wild Wind, a very famous fantasy novel. Bai Yang’s father hopes the environment of that world will shape his son to be more arrogant and domineering, as a child of a wealthy scion family ought to be. However, due to an error with the Main System, instead of transmigrating as the protagonist, Bai Yang ends up becoming a cannon fodder villain, Xie Zietian, from the Demon Realm! In order to safely and quickly return to his world, Bai Yang has to ensure that the protagonist, Zhou Ying, ascends to the heavens so his transmigration mission will be complete. In order to sneak into the human realm and help Zhou Ying, Bai Yang comes up with a variety of excuses to the Demon King of Eternal Night, such as… Bai Yang, in a dignified manner: “Your Majesty, that person might threaten the demon world. I went to the human world to kill him for you!” (Actually, I went there to meet the protagonist.) Bai Yang, proclaiming his loyalty: “Your Majesty, hang in there. I will go to the human world to find the elixir for you!” (Actually, I went there to save the protagonist.) Bai Yang, with an attitude of selfless dedication: “Your Majesty, I just want to go to the human world to further your great cause!” (Actually, I went there to see the protagonist.) The Demon King’s face remained impassive but, in fact, the tips of his ears were red. He was thinking: I can’t believe he loves me so deeply… Demon King: “Hmph! Seeing how clingy you are, I’ll accept your love. Tell me! Whatever you need, I’ll give it to you!” Bai Yang: “****! Your Majesty, I don’t love you.” Demon King: “No, you love me.” The Demon King truly believed Bai Yang and he shared a deep mutual love until he discovered that Bai Yang was having an “affair” with a “wild human” …

The Demon King Always Thinks I’m Secretly In Love With Him Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on The Demon King Always Thinks I’m Secretly In Love With Him
"The Demon King Always Thinks I’m Secretly In Love With Him" is a novel that promised a delightful blend of action, adventure, comedy, romance, xianxia, and yaoi. While it delivers on some fronts, a significant issue casts a dark shadow over the entire experience.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the comedic undertones and the premise of a cowardly protagonist navigating a world where a Demon Lord misunderstands his every move. The idea of a dense, dishonest protagonist trying to survive in such a scenario had me eager to dive in. I was anticipating a fun, lighthearted read with plenty of humorous misunderstandings.
What Works Well
For many chapters, the novel lives up to its comedic promise. The MC's quick wit and the Demon King's cluelessness create genuinely funny moments. I found myself enjoying the clever ways the protagonist weaseled his way out of difficult situations, often through sheer luck and a talent for bullshitting. The initial dynamic between the MC and ML was entertaining, with the tsundere Demon King providing plenty of awkward but endearing moments. The world-building was engaging, and I was curious to see how the MC would navigate the plot and protect the original protagonist.
Areas of Concern
However, the story takes a disturbing turn around chapter 70. A specific scene involving r*pe is handled poorly, with many finding it traumatizing, abusive, and played for laughs. This scene fundamentally alters the dynamic between the characters and casts a dark shadow over the rest of the novel. The victim-blaming narrative that follows, both from the system and the ML, is particularly egregious.

Final Verdict
"The Demon King Always Thinks I’m Secretly In Love With Him" is a deeply flawed novel. While the beginning promises a lighthearted and comedic adventure, the problematic handling of the rpe scene and its aftermath taints the entire experience. I cannot recommend this novel due to its disturbing content and the author's apparent lack of sensitivity towards the issue of sxual assault.
