Akinosuke Nishiyama

After hearing there’s a demon lurking in a village near the border, Albrea, the kingdom’s strongest knight, sets out to slay the monster. When she arrives in town, however, she quickly discovers that all is not as it seems. It turns out the humble town of Montt has a lesser-known nickname—the Maxed-Out Village—and the mighty demon is a retired old man! Montt is also inhabited by a stew-loving demonic sword that likes to take the form of a young girl, a money-grubbing witch, and a drunken priest known as the Holy Fist... Just what are so many of the kingdom’s greatest defenders doing in such a remote town?

Through her encounter with the kindly old demon and the rest of the Maxed-Out Village, Albrea will learn what it truly means to be a knight!

The Retired Demon of the Maxed-Out Village: Volume 1

Jarod Blackburn

When the duke and Father Blutgang return to the remote village of Montt after a relaxing day of fishing, they find a young monk clad in ominous cursed armor waiting for them. She goes toe-to-toe with Father Blutgang, who soon learns that she is in fact his beloved disciple Zaza. His only chance to save her was to destroy her sacred armor—the treasure of Mt. Eirimt. The duke agrees to repair it, but how did the armor get cursed in the first place? The duke’s search for the armor’s secret leads him to the ancient source of the holy power of the monk temple on Mt. Eirimt, and the mystery behind the curse may end up tying in to the incident that resulted in the dragon-slaying hero Blutgang’s expulsion from the temple ten years ago!
