"If Kenjirou wished for immortality and got it, that means he became the new Demon King. From the information I gathered before I died, the heavier the wish, the longer the caster must remain locked away. They can't leave the Demon Castle or its surrounding lands until a certain time passes."

They wanted to ensure no one could rise to challenge them... maybe that's why..."
