Demon Lord 2099 Synopsis
The cyberpunk metropolis of Shinjuku, a sprawling
city-state adorned with neon signs, towering skyscrapers, and the latest
cutting-edge technology. It is here, in the year 2099 of the Molten Era, that
the legendary Demon Lord Veltol makes his second coming five centuries later.
But this landscape is nothing like the one he conquered all those years ago, as
the fusion of magic and engineering has elevated civilization to dazzling,
unprecedented heights. Veltol may have been reduced to a historical footnote, but
make no mistake… this brave new world is his!
