The literal son of Satan, Rin Okumura had quite a legacy to deal with growing up, and yet this young exorcist does not fall into the shadow of evil, instead, he helps his brother and fellow academy students defeat the demonic hordes sent to tip the world into chaos for their lord Lucifer.

Rin was born only a half-demon, and yet he has almost unlimited access to the powers of Satan. These blue flamed powers were so dangerous that they had to be contained inside of Rin’s primary weapon, the demon-slaying sword known as Kurikara. But when they are unleashed and Rin begins to grow a pair of fiery horns, the powers of Satan have proven to be quite deadly against any demon that wants to take Rin to their overlord.

Rin lives a somewhat complicated life, wanting to kill his father for killing his stepfather by using the powers given to him by his father. Rin is determined to defeat his evil father and also prove to everyone who fears him for what he could become that Rin is firmly a human first and a demon second, using Kurikara to build a non-satanic future for humanity.
