There are two wolves inside you.
One is interested in the idea of Iruma slowly adapting to the demon world in mind and body. The language comes easier on his tongue and the environment is no longer menacing. His teeth get sharper, his magic flows more naturally and one day he spies the beginning of small wings and tail sprouting from his back. He assimilates and embraces his newfound demonhood.
The other is intrigued by the idea of Iruma settling in the demon, eventually ruling it while remaining unabashedly human. Its customs, while familiar, always feel strange. He uses his human traits, both those advantageous and not, to force his way to the very top. The reason no one ascended the throne of the demon king in hundreds of years in none of them had that inate human grit to overcome hardship.

#Honestly I will always lean more towards option 2 #but ohhhh there is something so interesting about Iruma becoming demonic #he'll always think of himself as human but oh how slippery that slope is #that gradual demonification until he wakes up one day unrecognizable from his former self #ahhh but also Iruma who rules over demons and monsters as a tiny human #with no wings or claws or magic of his own #there bc he possesses human stubbornness and passion and won over those around him #they're both very good
