Also known as: Hametsu no Madou Ou to Golem no Ban Kisaki, 破滅の魔導王とゴーレムの蛮妃, Hametsu no Madouou to Golem no Banhi
by Northcarolina, Hinako Inoue, Rina Mapa
In a world of swords and sorcery, a ritual summons the “sorcerer king” who will bring ruin—but all it coughs up is an ordinary boy from Earth. Stripped of his memories but endowed with unbelievable power, our protagonist isn’t keen on destroying the world. Fortunately, tinkering with his newfound power results in the creation of an intimidating partner to keep him safe! (source: Seven Seas Entertainment)
The StoryHoard editorial verdict
A fantasy comedy in which a ritual meant to summon a world-destroying sorcerer king instead produces an odd, golem-like creature, and the absurd mix-up sets off a fun and chaotic adventure.
Pros
- Absurd, funny premise

Read the full take
In a world of swords and sorcery, a ritual summons the sorcerer king who will bring ruin, but all it coughs up is an ordinary golem. That premise is an absurd, funny reversal of the legendary-villain story, and the series builds its humour on a summoning that goes badly wrong. The mismatch between the expected doom and the strange result is the engine.The strength is the absurdity. The comedic beats land well, and the golem's odd presence gives each chapter a chaotic energy. The bright tone is fun.The weaknesses are clear. The jokes can grow repetitive, and the story is short. Readers wanting a long arc may find it slight.Recommended for fans of absurd, lighthearted fantasy comedy. Expect a fun, chaotic ride.
