Accidentally Summoned as the Demon Lord’s Accountant
When thirty-year-old office drone Miles Mercer gets flattened by a runaway food truck, he wakes up inside a summoning circle surrounded by panicking cultists, an apologetic succubus, and a bone-thin Demon Lord whose evil empire is somehow three centuries behind on taxes. Miles was supposed to be a legendary hero. Instead, the gods gave him the most terrifying power in any world: Absolute Audit, the ability to see, optimize, and weaponize every system, contract, dungeon, army, and economy like a spreadsheet.
Unfortunately, the Demon Realm is less a nightmare kingdom and more a bankrupt disaster full of starving goblins, unpaid dragons, crumbling castles, and generals who think “budget” is a kind of axe. Miles decides that if he cannot go home, he might as well build the most efficient, profitable, suspiciously beloved dark empire in history.
With a flirtatious demon princess, a knightly saint who keeps trying to arrest him, a dragon banker, and one extremely anxious slime secretary at his side, Miles must outsmart corrupt kingdoms, rival heroes, and the gods who summoned him by mistake.
