Sinopsis of Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha

In the distant past, a war between humans and demons caused widespread chaos and bloodshed. To end this seemingly endless conflict, the Demon King Anos Voldigoad willingly sacrificed his life, hoping to be reborn in a peaceful future. In preparation for the king's return from him, the demon race created the Demon King Academy, an elite institution tasked with determining Anos's identity when he awakens. He is reincarnated two millennia later, but to his surprise, he soon discovers that the level of magic in the world has drastically decreased during his absence.

Also, when he enrolls in the academy to claim his rightful title, he discovers that the demons remember him differently. His personality, his facts and even his legacy are falsified, masked under the name of an impostor. This "lack" of common knowledge makes him the outlier of the academy, a misfit never before seen in history. Despite these drawbacks, Anos is unfazed. As he sets out to uncover those who alter his glorious past, he takes it upon himself to make his descendants recognize that his ruler has finally returned.
