Once upon a time our world was saved by the Valkyrie, a goddess who graced the battlefield with her immense beauty and power. Many years later, the evil Demon King remains sealed away, and the girls who inherited the Valkyrie’s powers are revered by the people as “Divas.” In the present day, a young king named Alnoa returns home after defending his country from an invasion to shocking news: two Diva princesses have each offered their hand in marriage to him! Knowing that a single misstep could be political suicide, Alnoa diplomatically offers to meet them both one month apart...yet when he heads to the castle gates to greet his first potential wife, he finds that they’ve arrived at the same time!

After his battle with the Empire, Alnoa sets his mind to learning more about the mysterious Demon King. He resorts to summoning the succubus Lilicia for information, and she has a surprising secret to share with him. According to her, Al needs to perform the so-called “Heavenly Surge” with all seven divas in order to renew the seal keeping the Demon King at bay. If he fails, there will be cataclysmic consequences. But unfortunately, Feena—the only Diva he can make it to in time—is dead set on avoiding him!

Hardly any time has passed since the battle against Eshantel, and King Alnoa’s plan to seal the Demon King away once more is coming along perfectly. That is, until he receives an unexpected visitor named Luna, who is a Diva, a princess of Distania...and also Al’s former bride-to-be! With her arrival, the Divas break out into an all-out battle for the young king’s hand in marriage!

Once upon a time, our world was blessed by the Valkyrie, a goddess of war whose fleeting beauty shone brilliantly on the battlefield. Her campaign against the wretched Demon King proved victorious, with the evil being sealed away by the beautiful warrior.Many years later, the young King Alnoa has just returned home after staving off another invasion of his homeland. Before he can even change out of his battle attire, his sister Cecilia comes to him with startling news: Sharon and Lesfina, both princesses and Divas blessed with the power of the Valkyrie, seek his hand in marriage. Alnoa isn't fond of the idea, but his feelings mean little in the face of politics. He arranges to meet them one month apart and will choose one to be his bride, ushering in a new era for his kingdom.Now it's time for our young king to meet the first candidate. He awaits her at the castle gates... But wait! Both candidates showed up at the same time!?

Right after their battle with Eshantel, Al got word of two unexpected visitors. The first is none other than Luna: his old friend, and first love. Their happy reunion is met with some not so happy glares from the other Divas and would-be brides.His second visitor, however, is a much less pleasant surprise. As Ranbolg, the second in line for the Freiyan throne enters Althos' throne room a suffocating pressure envelopes the group. That pressure only grows as his goal becomes apparent: "Sharon. Come back to Freiya and marry me."Now it's up to Sharon to choose her fate...
