"The Demon Empress's Husband is a Part-time Hero" is an enchanting fantasy novel that follows the journey of William, a man burdened by tragedy and determined to protect his niece, Aimee. After losing his parents in a devastating accident, William selflessly takes on the role of a father, nurturing Aimee's fragile spirit as she grapples with the trauma that has rendered her voiceless.

Unexpectedly, William and Aimee find themselves transported to a magical realm brimming with wonders and dangers alike. The inhabitants of this world hail William as a Hero, but he rejects the path of fame and glory, choosing instead to create a haven where he can raise Aimee in peace and safety.

However, fate takes an unexpected turn when the Demand Empress, a once-powerful ruler who suffered a great betrayal and lost everything, becomes enslaved by William. Bound by a shared sense of loss and longing, the unlikely duo forges an intricate bond as they navigate their new reality together.

As William settles into a peaceful city, dedicating himself to his daughter's well-being, he is plagued by haunting dreams and the awakening of latent powers. In a momentous decision, William embraces his emerging abilities and assumes the mantle of the Hero of Darkness. 
(Note - He does not become a Hero for fun. The situation around him forces him to cover his face with a mask and since then he has been using his second identity to deal with problems around him while living his normal life as a merchant in Emberfall City.)

"The Demon Empress's Husband is a Part-time Hero" is a captivating tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption. Through William's journey, readers will be immersed in a richly imagined world where the line between darkness and light blurs, and where the strength of a father's love and the resilience of the human spirit triumph over adversity.

So what can you expect from this novel? This is the question that every reader unconsciously or consciously thinks about before reading a novel. If you have read till here then let me some highlighting and catching points of this novel.  
- a romance between Demon Empress and the Hero? [Yes]
- Harem Novel? [Yes but with proper character development.]
- Character Growth? [Yes]
- System? [Yes]
- The Story of a Hero? [Yes]
- No NTR? [Yes]
____________
Note - First of all I would like to clear everyone's misunderstanding that William will become a Hero because he has a strong sense of justice. He has a secondary identity that starts as a result of his desire to have powers to protect his daughter. And this is a Hero that is not like your typical Hero who stops robbery or stops thugs at night. This is something much more than that. The stakes are a lot higher and more personal.
I am not talking about Heroes like Captain America or Spider-Man. William is very different. He did not become a Hero because it sounded like fun. He was forced to take that role because of the situations that he had been put into. 
This is a slow novel. Especially the whole first volume might feel very slow for you as in this volume, a background of this fantasy World and William's daily life in Emberfall city is established.

The Demon Empress's Husband is a Part-time Hero

"Lunch is all set!" William announced cheerfully, a big smile on his face. While Isabella and Aimee had been taking a break in the cool shade, he had been busy preparing lunch for them. He had used the meat they had brought along, which, luckily, hadn't gone bad despite the heat. He knew, though, that it wouldn't have lasted much longer in these desert conditions.

"Thank you so much, Will. I wish I could have helped..." Isabella said, her voice filled with gratitude as she dabbed at her forehead with a small towel. She was still feeling the effects of the desert heat. Clearly, she found it hard to cope with the hot, dry weather of the northern desert.

Even Aimee wasn't sweating like her.

William gently brushed off her apology. "No need to say thanks. Let's just enjoy the meal," he insisted.
