Bright Yet Dark Cloud Above The Sky

Xia Mi found himself transported into a classic JRPG game, becoming a villager in a beginner's village.
His biggest wish was to save money and marry a woman from a different race as his wife, live a peaceful and worry-free life, and eventually pass away peacefully.
One day, the heroes defeated the Demon King.
[Name: Xia Mi]
[Profession: Villager]
New addition: [Profession: Successor to the Demon King]
"Quickly take action, Demon King! Kill all the heroes! Restore the glory of the demon race!"
Wait, did something go wrong here?
In the beginner's village, where Xia Mi spent his days farming and serving as a passer-by, he suddenly had an identity panel.
But he was just a villager in the beginner's village!
"Where is the Demon King? Where is the Demon King?"
News of the Demon King's emergence spread across the continent, and every hero who came here to defeat the Demon King could see a constant stream of monsters in the beginner's village, but never caught sight of the Demon King.
A villager from the beginner's village: Demon King? I'm just a villager. I have no idea what it is.

"Do you always wear some sort of ancestral ring on you?"

"I don't have anything like that..."

The mood suddenly turned melancholic.

After a moment of silence, Xia Mi took out a pitch-black ring from his Demon King's Ring. It was one of the six rings that the previous Demon King couldn't even give away at the Succubi's Lounge.

Even now, Xia Mi still couldn't reveal the true form of this ring.

He casually offered it to break the awkward silence.

Lureia looked surprised, her eyes widening when she saw the item in Xia Mi's palm.

"A ring? You're not proposing or something, are you? There isn't even a balloon!"
