The king who called himself "Devanampriya" and "Priyadarshi" was Ashoka, the Mauryan emperor who ruled from 268 to 232 BCE. These titles, which translate to "Beloved of the Gods" and "He who is pleasing to all," reflect his commitment to Buddhism and his efforts to promote moral governance and social welfare throughout his empire. Ashoka is renowned for his edicts and the spread of Buddhism beyond India.

Who called himself the king of kings?

Nobody does. Michael Jackson did not call himself that or demand that people call him that. His fans and Elizabeth Taylor referred to him as that. They were the ones who called him the King of Pop. He never said "I am the King of Pop." There is no evidence any where to suggest that he ever said anything of the sort.
