Summary: This is the story of the romance of Tenran, Demon King of the East and his follower, Asagi, a shape-shifter with a dragon form (though none of it's powers), who is responsible for his lord's safety.
Before her death, Asagi's mother, a true dragon in form and power, instructed him to serve Lord Tenran. In preparation she told her son many wonderful stories of Lord Tenran's nobility, kindness and beauty. However, Asagi quickly learns Lord Tenran is egotistical, vulgar, and quite lusty. He seems to only be concerned with teasing Asagi into his bed. Lord Tenran, a complete uke despite his great power, will stop at nothing until Asagi has thoroughly taken him!
Review: While the artwork isn't that great, the comedic plot is a light pleasant read. It's a bit strange at times for the uke to be so all powerful while the seme always has to be rescued, but that's what makes the story interesting. Nothing overly dramatic occurs, and the story truly focuses on the relationship between Asagi and Tenran.
It's a yaoi story, but since main characters are such unique and extinct species I kind of feel sad that they won't be able to have descendants. Perhaps the mangaka will leave a loophole for that since Tenran is a power sorcerer after all.
Overall, it's a cute light read
Rate: 7/10
