== Plot ==
Morioka Yuuto awakes to find a strange tarot card lying next to him, a Lovers card. He asks his parents about his discovery and is surprised by their ecstatic reaction. To his disbelief, he is the Devil King candidate of Lovers. 
​ Yuuto can attend Ginsei Academy, an academy for devils living in the human realm. 
On his first day, Yuuto gets into a fight with a devil student due to his hostile attitude, the devil Geld. Yuuto learns his first spells in the midst of combat, comes out victorious, and passes out. 
He wakes up naked in the luxurious room, beside a naked Himekami Lizel. Lizel supported Yuuto in the fight against Geld and hinted to him on how to use magic. While unconscious, Yuuto underwent a ritual with Lizel to restore his mana. Lizel provides an insight to Yuuto about the devil king's war and declares her desire to mentor him. Their conversation is interrupted by two girls, energetic blonde Yuugaoze Miyabi and the timid, and insecure Koiwai Reina. Yuuto learns the three girls want to forge a contract with him, becoming his cards. To not rush such an important decision, Yuuto decides to take his time and heads home.
The second day takes a similar turn. In class, Yuuto caused an uproar when he was demonstrating his magic power and overdid it. As a result, Yuuto must visit the headmaster. When he arrives, Yuuto meets the current headmaster & Devil King, who`s also a passionate weeb, Gandou Barbatos. Headmaster Gandou kindly shares information about the devil king war with Yuuto to the extent he is allowed (he cannot favour one candidate over others) and quickly change the subject to anime. 
After lunch, Yuuto and Lizel find Geld getting punished by Linel Aspite. The unknown man turns out to serve devil king candidate of the World alongside Geld, the knight Kilga. Yuuto doesn't appreciate Kilga beating down his comrade and decides to step in. Kilga takes on Yuuto and Lizel joined by Reina. They defeat the Knigth and they want to go back to the lover's palace. However, an unpleasant visitor stops them. Yuuto comes face to face with the devil king candidate of World, Aspite. Aspite is displeased with Kilga' defeat. He removes Kilga's status as a knight of the World, vents his anger on him and goes home without doing anything to the Lovers. Yuuto passes out. He wakes up in the lover's palace and makes the contract with the girls. Yuuto now has three cards. 
Aspite waste no time and proceed to plan Yuuto's defeat. Haida Cluzaz, Aspite's ace, volunteer to defeat the Devil King candidate of Lover's, wishing to obtain Miyabi as a reward to fulfil his desires. In the lovers camp, Yuuto begins to work out. He unlocks an advanced form of Figa, Fizard. Next on the list is physical training with Miyabi. The workout quickly took a different, erotic direction. After the erotic distraction, Yuuto learns more basic spells for close-range combat. The girls were talking about the worst possible outcome (defeat), if Yuuto lose how that would that impact their noble status? Their conversation is overheard by Yuuto in the shower, making him determined more than ever. 
At school, Yuuto reunites with Geld. He attempts to warm their relationship, but Geld is angry at Yuuto because he got fired by Aspite. When he got home, Yuuto noticed that the sky turned black. His house is under attack. Yuuto rushes down to find his parents unconscious with an unknown person facing him, Haida. Their face off was short as Yuuto got a mana boost from girls and managed to outplay Haida, forcing a retreat.
A week later, an unveiling occurred. It was a formality to recognize Yuuto as a Devil King candidate of the Lover's Arcana by the other candidates. Precisely candidates, who bothered to show up. At the meeting, Yuuto met a famous idol and the Devil King candidate of Star, the cheerful yet terrifying Hoshigaoka Stella. Most of the present candidates didn't care and just said yes and went home. One candidate came with a condition for his approval, Aspite. To gain his recognition, Yuuto must defeat Haida. 1v1 didn't go the way Haida imagine, and after an intense fight, Yuuto came out victorious. After catching a breath, Yuuto had a quick chat with Stella. Who introduce her friend to Yuuto, the devil king candidate of Chariot an introverted girl whose name is Carnac Neith.
On Sunday, lovers decided to go shopping for summer outfits. After the shopping, Yuuto went to the nearby store to kill time. When he was looking at a photo album of Hoshigaoka Stella, a masked person dragged him off to the side alley. It turned out to be Stella herself. She began to ask Yuuto about the details on his arcana, magic, showing an interest in Lizel etc. Unknowingly to Yuuto, as he was chatting with Stella, Lizel was kidnapped by Aspite.
Back home, Geld informed Yuuto of Lizel's whereabout and warned him about Aspite plan. Lovers decided to strike at night. At Aspite's house, they were surprised by Stella. Stella made a proposition to Yuuto. She will beat Aspite, but she will take Lizel as her card. Yuuto declined her offer and went with his plan.
Lovers used teleport spell to get into Aspite's mansion. Miyabi and Reina took on Aspite's peerage. Yuuto challenged Aspite. 
Aspite used his unique magic, World Revision. Yuuto started with a series of attacks but got outclassed by World Revision, unable to land a single hit on Aspite. Aspite grabbed the initiative and launched a series of attacks on Yuuto, finishing with a high-gravity field. The gravity field had prevented Yuuto from moving. However, it uncovered a weakness in the World Revision. Stronger gravity was applied to Aspite as well.World Revision changes the rules in the active field for everyone in it. Knowing his unique ability was figured out, Aspite decided to use his raw power to end the fight. In doing so, Aspite accidentally triggered the unique magic of the Lovers arcana, Infinite Lovers. Yuuto now had the upper hand. Yuuto used the unresolved formula World Fall to destroy Aspite's World Revision, sending him flying. Yuuto won. The lovers went home, where Yuuto got rewarded with girls dressing in bunny suits.
