A brief description of the manga Betrayed Thief, the Phantom Thief as a Demon King Goes for World Domination:
The thief Keith, whose family was captured, was forced to join the Demon King subjugation party. Thanks to his efforts, they managed to defeat the Demon King, but the king and heroes, who did not think highly of Keith, betrayed him and attempted to kill him.
Barely escaping with his life, Keith found sinister horns growing from his head and transformed into the Phantom Thief Demon King, an embodiment of destruction and violence who can steal others’ skills and statuses!
Along with the former Demon King’s subordinates, the Four Heavenly Kings, and monsters under his command, he exacts vengeance on the humans who betrayed him!
Another completely cliche “I vas betrayed by [insert group]”. Completely uninspiring and unidimensional characters who are 4ssholes for the sake of being 4ssholes. Overlord-eske devoted fanatics of the MC who only exist to be faithful to MC and fill that part of the power fantasy.
MC becomes OP a second after being betrayed. Oh and the member of the party that I saw for one second and thought “this is the simp girl from the original group that was always on MC’s side” was just as I predicted she would be.
I can already see the rest of the story without having to read any other chapter.
From the cover alone seems like a garbage. The first chapter confirmed this is garbage.
