demon world named Maki, and Keita who summoned her from a mysterious
box. Keita is granted three wishes in exchange for his soul. But she can

demon with little knowledge of how to be evil, Maki must rely on her
trusty guidebook to teach herself the ways of the nefarious arts and trick
Keita into using up his wishes. Until then, Maki's going to live with

princess in the history of the kingdom begins.
