Series
Demon King Priest II is a Western fantasy web novel by the online writer Fat Bread, a sequel to Demon King Priest and the Brave Beauty. It was serialized on Qidian and is now complete. The protagonist, Ulysses, has admired the respected vocation of priest since childhood and trained hard for it; yet a chance encounter leads the ancient "Book of Curses" to choose him as the Demon King's heir. From then on, he clings to his dream of becoming an ascetic priest while having to face all the entanglements and battles brought by his Demon King identity. Around him are girls of different personalities and allegiances: Laxia, the hero fiancée who always gets lost yet is utterly devoted to Ulysses; Aya, the little demon who guards the "Book of Curses" and will stop at nothing to mold him into a true Demon King; the Ice Phoenix "Mama," far in the far north, who worries over him like a child; and Helen, the strongest weapon girl who would destroy the world for "Papa." Also appearing are a witch poor at magic but superb with the sword, a saintess with the power of divine descent, and a dragon princess burning like flame. Set in a fantasy world of swords and magic, the work unfolds around main arcs such as the "Dark Holy Grail Incident" and the "Radiant Festival," depicting Ulysses's repeated struggles between his Demon King destiny and his priestly faith amid passionate battles and light-comedy daily life. As the second installment of the series, it can be regarded as the official sequel to the Demon King Priest series.

Summary

Demon King Priest II

Editor's review

作为《魔王神官和勇者美少女》的续作,《魔王神官II》延续了肥面包最擅长的写法:把“一本正经的宏大设定”和“毫无正经可言的日常闹剧”搅在一起。主角尤里西斯的处境本身就是个绝妙的喜剧内核——他毕生的志愿是当一名清心寡欲的神官,命运却偏要塞给他一顶魔王的冠冕。于是读者看到的是一个一边念叨着教义、一边被各路“勇者”围追堵截的倒霉少年。作者在人物塑造上很舍得下功夫:路痴未婚妻拉夏、唯恐天下不乱的小恶魔艾娅、护崽心切的冰凰妈妈、把父亲当全世界的最强兵器海伦,几乎每个角色都有一句能立住的“人设台词”,群像感强,读起来热闹。战斗与日常的比例控制得较为均衡,魔剑“深渊断罪”、使徒之团等设定也为后续剧情留足了空间。需要提醒的是,本书属于典型的起点男频西幻网文,节奏偏长线连载,带有一定后宫向与轻度擦边描写,阅读时不妨按“轻松消遣”的预期进入。对于喜欢剑与魔法世界、偏爱反差萌主角和多角色群像的老读者,这部续作值得一读;若你追求严密的世界观考据或严肃文学性的表达,则未必合口味。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • 读过《魔王神官和勇者美少女》、想追续篇的老读者
  • 喜欢剑与魔法西幻设定、享受长篇连载节奏的网文读者
  • 偏爱“理想与现实错位”式反差主角和群像日常的读者
  • 能接受轻度后宫向、擦边搞笑桥段的成年读者

Not a good fit for

  • 偏好严肃文学、要求严密世界观考据的读者
  • 不接受后宫向、擦边搞笑桥段的读者
  • 希望从零开始读单本完结故事的读者(本作为续作)

Reading tips

  1. 建议先读前作《魔王神官和勇者美少女》,理清尤里西斯成为魔王继承人的前因与核心角色关系。
  2. 可按“黑暗圣杯事件”“光辉祭典”等主线分段阅读,每段结束后回顾人物立场变化,避免长线连载读乱。
  3. 把本书当作轻松消遣读物,不必逐章较真战力数值,重点享受角色互动与反差喜剧。
  4. 见到陌生角色(如使徒之团成员)时随手记一笔身份与所属,能显著降低中后期人物混淆。
