In Maoyu, after fifteen years of war between humans and demons, the greatest warrior of mankind, known only as Hero, invades the Demon King’s castle to end the conflict once and for all. To his surprise, the "King" is actually a beautiful Demon Queen who has been expecting him. Instead of a fight to the death, she presents a shocking economic and political proposal: the war has become a necessary evil that sustains the economies of both realms. She enlists Hero’s help to implement agricultural reforms, new technologies, and a plan for a sustainable peace that doesn't rely on bloodshed. Together, they set out to change the world, one potato at a time.
