* NonActionProtagonist: Uchimura Denosuke is a Japanese salaryman who is transported into a StandardJapaneseFantasySetting without any [[NewLifeInAnotherWorldBonus Isekai cheats]], so he remains a completely ordinary thirty-something human who is expected by the Demon Overlord to solve administrative, diplomatic, and logistics problems for the demons using AwesomenessByAnalysis. The MegaCorp he worked for on Earth didn't properly appreciate his talents in this regard, but the Demon Overlord very much does.

* BoobsOfSteel: Ulmandra is quite well-endowed and strong enough in both physical combat and [[KillItWithFire fire magic]] to destroy flocks of wyverns single-handedly, though she pales in comparison to the Demon Overlord himself.

* {{Stripperiffic}}: {{Justified}} with the demons. A body that's in good shape is crucial to being able to use magic, so demons like Ulmandra traditionally like to show skin to advertise their magical power. Uchimura unintentionally offends Ulmandra when he suggests she use a weapon instead of magic to fight, which denigrates both her magic power and her looks.

* FemmeFatalons: One of Ulmandra's fighting techniques is a spell that transforms her right hand into scythe-like claws, which she uses to kill a giant wild boar. Though she dislikes using that spell due to how long it takes to wear off.

''Headhunted to Another World: From Salaryman to Big Four!'' (''サラリーマンが異世界に行ったら四天王になった話 Salaryman ga Isekai ni Ittara Shitennou ni Natta Hanashi''[[labelnote:Trans.]]"Story About a Salaryman Who Became one of the Four Heavenly Kings When he Went to Another World, Office Worker Has Become 'Big Four' in the Different World"[[/labelnote]]) is a {{fantasy}} {{isekai}} {{manga}} written by Creator/{{Benigashira}} and illustrated by Creator/{{Muramitsu}}.
The Demon Overlord calls forth his [[EliteFour Four Heavenly Kings]] to bring order and prosperity back to his lands:
->"[[FieryRedhead Ulmandra, Queen of Assault and Hellfire!]]"\\
"[[WrenchWench Sylphid, Conjurer of the Ultimate Storm!]]"\\
"[[ActionGirl Gnome, Manipulator of Nature's Bulwark, the Earth!]]"\\
and "[[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Uchimura Denosuke, Regional Manager of the Overseas!]]"
Yes, much to the bafflement of everyone, himself most of all, our protagonist is a [[NonActionGuy bog-standard thirty-something human male from Japan]], whose sole claim to fame is being [[{{Salaryman}} an underappreciated middle manager]] at a MegaCorp. Despite his misgivings, he's [[SignedUpForTheDental impressed with the pay and benefits offered]] by the Demon Overlord and signs on, bringing his skills as an administrator and negotiator to bear on the logistical and financial problems of the Demon Army. He's joined in this by Ulmandra, a FieryRedhead demon warrior whom the Demon Overlord appoints as his bodyguard--and who quickly [[BodyguardCrush develops a crush on him]] despite her [[{{Tsundere}} initial hostility]].
''Headhunted to Another World'' began serialization in ''Magazine/ComicGardo'' on 27 December 2019. Creator/SevenSeasEntertainment has been publishing it in English since 5 October 2021.

!!This manga contains examples of the following tropes:
* AccidentalProposal: At the end of chapter 8, the Demon Overlord gives Uchimura a runestone as a reward for his efforts thus far. To thank Ulmandra for helping him (and smooth things over after they had a spat over an unintended insult by him), he gives it to Ulmandra--not realizing that this is considered a marriage proposal among the demons. (Didja ''have'' to do it on bended knee?) He does it ''again'' when he buys a set of wedding goblets from a merchant as props for a gambit to establish trade ties with King Rampaige, and gives one to Ulmandra just because he thought she'd like it.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Uchimura's best skill is figuring out people's aims and desires by keen attention to detail. In the first chapter he quickly concludes a treaty with the minotaurs when he figures out that the word "Peniser!" that their ambassador Tarius kept repeating was a flawed result of their TranslatorMicrobes: the minotaur was trying to say that he thought the bed they gave him to sleep in was too flimsy.
* BigGood: [[OurDemonsAreDifferent The demons in this series are haughty but not inherently evil]], and the Demon Overlord is one of the best. He despises that AsskickingLeadsToLeadership in this world (necessitated by the presence of calamities, magical {{kaiju}} likened to natural disasters) and aspires to end that way of life so that ordinary people like Uchimura can thrive.
* BoobsOfSteel: Ulmandra is quite well-endowed and strong enough in both physical combat and [[KillItWithFire fire magic]] to destroy flocks of wyverns single-handedly, though she pales in comparison to the Demon Overlord himself.
* CarnivoreConfusion: Uchimura is initially baffled that the orcs, [[OurOrcsAreDifferent who resemble pig men]], are willing to consume wild boar. He decides to just go with it without trying to understand it further.
* NonActionGuy: Unlike most {{isekai}} protagonists, Uchimura got no NewLifeInAnotherWorldBonus at all: he has no fighting skills and is only able to cast magic with the use of a runestone. Fortunately he has Ulmandra to do his fighting for him.
* ObliviousToLove: Uchimura does think Ulmandra is hot, but is clueless about her crush on him or the fact that he keeps [[AccidentalProposal accidentally proposing to her]]--although her [[CannotSpitItOut inability to actually tell him her feelings]] doesn't help.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: {{Justified}} with the demons. A body that's in good shape is crucial to being able to use magic, so demons like Ulmandra traditionally like to show skin to advertise their magical power. Uchimura unintentionally offends Ulmandra when he suggests she use a weapon instead of magic to fight, which denigrates both her magic power and her looks.
