The Overlord is often a title given to the leader of the forces of evil. However, in our world the title of Overlord is a symbol of power, of respect and admiration. The Seven Overlords are heralded as the most powerful beings among those entities that aren't human. As much leader as they are protector, each one of them has their share of stories and legends, and the Overlord Aundra is no exception. A beautiful and powerful dark elf, she has been the reason why the Eastern Continent has enjoyed an era of peace and prosperity under her reign. It's not just monster girls who have followed her leadership, there is even a village of human refugees who have fled from the wartorn mainland to find a peaceful existence in her dominion.
However, the truth is that Aundra wants nothing more than living a peaceful existence, a desire that is quite difficult to be satisfied when you are constantly chased by a foolish wanna-be hero and have your subordinates constantly drag you into misadventures!
Overall it's one of the highest quality submissions for this contest, and pretty darn enjoyable. Great job to both you and the artist.
Just as an aside, I'm running a small Discord for manga creators, it's pretty chill and there's no pressure to post. If you or the artist want to check it out it's over here. https://discord.gg/XBvH8Eu
I found the concept interesting if a little commonplace. The main character is likable, I would have liked to see her do more wholesome things that endears her with the townspeople.
The battle with the hero was a little weak, as I know this was intentional, but the hero was so annoying that it overshadowed the humor of the situation for me. Also, the buildup to the (cat-girl?) asking to be an apprentice felt a little out of left field since we don't understand the structure of the demon society, the fact that they can take apprentices was a little bit of a surprise. So ending the one-shot that way is a little unsatisfying since I wanted to see more of the main character's story!
