What is Hero X Demon Empress?
“Hero X Demon Empress” is a Chinese manhua series that combines action, comedy, drama, fantasy, and sci-fi elements. Published on IQIYI in 2023, the series is created by 拾部 (Shibu). The manhua is officially licensed in English by Webnovel, with Japanese translations also available.
On Novelmic, the series achieved an impressive 4.7/5 rating from 43 readers with 3.5K monthly views ComicBook.com. Readers have praised it as “quite silly and enjoyable” with “more originality than some serious ones,” noting that “you never really know what’s coming next and it’s quite refreshing” Game Rant. The manhua is currently listed on 367 reading lists.
With its absurd comedy premise of defeating the world’s strongest Demon Empress with just a pet dog, cohabitation shenanigans between hero and demon queen, overpowered-but-oblivious protagonist creating constant misunderstandings, and isekai village life that never leaves the starting area, the series appeals to fans of lighthearted comedy manhua who enjoy ridiculous power fantasy and silly situations.
Plot Overview
All he wanted was the peaceful tranquility of countryside life. But destiny had very different plans. Suddenly transported to an entirely new fantasy world, our protagonist finds himself in Novice Village—and somehow ascends to become a creation-level entity, one of the most powerful beings imaginable.
Then, against all odds and expectations, he defeats the fearsome Demon Empress who ruled this realm with absolute power. His secret weapon? A dog. Just a regular dog he had raised. That’s it. The legendary Demon Empress, who dominated the world and struck terror into the hearts of heroes, was defeated by a pet dog.
From that absurd and pivotal moment, the defeated Demon Empress—having nowhere else to go—simply moves into his humble home and starts living with him. What follows is a series of increasingly ridiculous misunderstandings as everyone assumes this “village nobody” must be unimaginably powerful (which he technically is, but doesn’t realize it himself). Can our oblivious protagonist navigate his extraordinary adventure in this otherworldly domain while his pet dog continues to accidentally defeat world-threatening enemies?
