Overview
Helck is a television series that premiered in 2023. The story begins three months after the Demon Lord has been defeated, leaving the Demon Realm in search of a successor. To determine who will replace the fallen leader, the realm organizes a tournament. The primary contestant participating in this competition is a human hero named Helck.
