The novel is titled Cheat no Ou: Isekai Tensei no Saikyou Yuusha VS Mura no Juunin, and the synopsis is described as follows:
What if ... instead of being reincarnated in another world as a powerful protagonist (the cheater), you were one of the people who suffer from that protagonist (those who cheat)?
Yuri is a young man from a certain village who aspires to be a soldier. If you continue your diligent work, you may be able to pass the exam to become an Imperial Knight. But one day, chaos strikes his people. Yuri is attacked by "the shadows" who murdered his family, and he is unable to do anything about it.
Shortly after, he discovers that "the shadows" are invincible beings who reincarnated from a world called "Japan" and who have ridiculous statistics. Having narrowly evaded death, Yuri swears that he will defeat “the shadows” and, for this, will gain the power of the God of Darkness in the abyss of the world. Gaining immortality will not matter how many times you are killed, it will always return.
Before his sworn enemy known as "The Hero", he will become the "Demon King".
