▍About The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy Anime
The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy is an ongoing light novel series that revolves around the misadventures of the Undead King, Leonis Death Magnus. The series has also been adapted into a manga series that’s also ongoing, with an anime adaptation coming soon.
Led by the Six Dark Lords, humanity was said to have been wiped out. However, humanity had hope in the form of the Six Heroes. With their combined might, the Six Dark Lords fell one by one until finally, Leonis himself remained.
The Undead King would meet his end, but not before sealing his own body in a powerful spell and casting a resurrection spell, that would allow him to rise once more. Leonis declared that he would concede only this once, but shall rise again in one thousand years to conquer humanity.
In the present time, Leonis’ self-inflicted spell is broken by accident by a girl named Riselia, who stumbled upon his now ancient crypt. With the seal undone, the Undead King awakens, only to be resurrected in the body of a ten-year-old human child.
Mistaken as a victim to monsters known only as the Voids, Riselia takes Leonis into her care. All the while, Leonis begins to uncover what had happened to the world while he slept.
