Yes—but the definition is stretching. The MC is still vowing to create a demon harem. But in v112a, we see him more as a collector of powerful assets than a romantic lead. Some fans love this evolution. Others miss the earlier chaotic energy.
Personally? I think it’s working. A harem built on genuine power dynamics and demonic politics is more interesting than another accidental flirtation fest.
The core of this update expands the tense parley between the MC (let’s call him Rael, as fans have unofficially named him) and a rogue demon lord’s enforcer. The original v112 cut away mid-threat. Here? We get a full back-and-forth—complete with a surprisingly clever contract clause about “voluntary servitude without emotional coercion.”
It’s a small change, but it reframes the MC’s ethics. He’s still manipulative. But now? He’s also careful. he who vowed to create a demon harem v112 a updated
The updated version also expands a dialogue scene between Dante and Lilith. While the original had Lilith simply agreeing to a risky plan, v112 a reveals that she has been hiding a secret: she once served the very Archdemon Dante is trying to overthrow. This betrayal creates tension and mistrust, adding a layer of psychological drama rarely seen in the harem genre.
The comedic beats are fewer here. One joke about succubus coffee breaks remains, but the rest is pure power calculus. The author seems to be steering toward a long-term political thriller disguised as a harem builder.

"The v112 a update fixes everything wrong with the original. The new bride doesn’t feel like a random addition—she’s integral. And the extra dialogue? Finally, the harem feels like a real family, not just a checklist."
However, some purists argue that the "a" revisions soften Dante’s ruthless persona. In the original, he coldly accepted Malkor’s sacrifice. In the update, he hesitates. Author Kazuma Blackthorn responded on Twitter:
"Dante is a monster, yes. But monsters can grow. v112 a shows the first crack in his armor. That’s by design." The core of this update expands the tense
With the "a" update now live, the author has confirmed that v112 b is already in beta. According to the roadmap shared on Discord, v112 b will feature:
Furthermore, Volume 12 (tentatively titled "The Harem’s Oath") is slated for a Q4 release. Given the events of v112 a, it’s likely that the Celestial Order will launch a counter-invasion, forcing Dante to either unify the demon realms or watch his brides fall one by one.
Given the niche nature, this series may be available on:
