Asta[edit]

Voiced by: Shun Horie^[1] (OVA), Gakuto Kajiwara^[2] (Anime) (Japanese); Dallas Reid^[3] (English)

Portrayed by: Keisuke Ueda (stage play)^[4]

Asta (アスタ, Asuta) is an orphan who was left under the care of a church by his mother during his infancy. He has high aspirations of becoming the next Wizard King. He possesses no magical power, but he overcame his weakness by increasing his physical strength, which allowed him to join the Magic Knight Squad known as the Black Bulls after acquiring a five-leaf clover grimoire where the Anti-Magic devil Liebe resides. The grimoire allows him to use Anti-Magic effectively due to his lack of mana. He also embraces Yami's quote "Surpass your Limits" (限界をこえる, Genkai wo Koeru) as his personal philosophy in battle. Asta originally used the magic-nullifying Demon-Slayer Sword in the Magic Knights Entrance Exam as well as the Saussy Village mission where he battles Heath Grice with Noelle and Magna. During the Dungeon arc, he, Noelle, and Luck are exploring a dungeon when Luck goes off on his own. He and Noelle are later caught in a trap spell when they run into Yuno, Klaus, and Mimosa. He and Noelle later help Luck in battling Lotus. He, Noelle, and Luck later help Yuno, Klaus, and Mimosa battle Mars where he acquires the magic-siphoning Demon-Dweller Sword. During the Eye of the Midnight Sun's invasion of the royal capital, he battles Rades, Valtos, and other minions with Noelle, Leopold, and Fuegoleon until he is captured by Sally and saved by Julius. He later goes to a mixer with Luck and Finral and meets Rebecca who develops a crush on him. During the Nean Village arc, he goes to Nean to play with Rebecca's siblings and later Marie but this angers Gauche to the point of trying to kill him. He later helps rescue the children that were kidnapped by Neige and Baro with Gauche and Sister Theresa. He later confronts Sally when she turns Baro into a giant mud monster and defeats them with Gauche's help. However, he struggles against Patry(going by Licht at the time) and is almost killed until Yami saves him. Yami teaches him how to sense their ki and he uses it to defeat Valtos. When Patry tries to use his most powerful spell to take him and Yami out, he is saved by Gauche who reflects the spell back at Patry. He watches as Yami struggles against the Third Eye until he is saved by Jack, Nozel, and Charlotte. He does more damage to Patry with an attack with Yami and Finral.

During the Kiten arc, he defeats Yagos with Finral's help when Langris failed to kill him. He later travels to the Forest of Witches with Noelle, Finral, Vanessa, Fanzell, Dominante, and Mariella to have the Queen of Witches heal his arms. After the Witch Queen used her magic to increase the Anti-Magic flow in Asta's body, he gained the ability to transform into a form called "Black Asta" by tapping into the power of the devil within his grimoire which he uses to defeat Fana and the Diamond Kingdom when they invade. He is later forced by the Queen to kill all his friends until he is stopped by Vanessa's fate-altering ability. He later takes the Royal Knights selection exam and confronts Langris when he gravely injuries Finral. He is accepted into the Royal Knights and raids the Eye of the Midnight Sun's hideout later acquiring the Demon-Destroyer Sword that allows him to destroy magic's actual effects, even after the spell has been cast from Licht after he and Yuno battled him. This allows him to exorcise the elf spirits, should he inflict enough damage to their host bodies using it. Asta later learns that his weapons and grimoire once belonged to the Elf Race's leader Licht, the book itself revealed to have demonic origins as its creation was engineered by the devil Zagred with another devil sealed within it. He helps the Black Bulls defeat the reincarnated elves. When he enters the Shadow Palace, he finds out about how the elves were manipulated and turns Patry back to normal after he turned into a Dark Elf. Asta also learns about the existence of devils when he battles Zagred in the Shadow Palace alongside Yuno, Secre, Patry, Lumiere, and Licht. He defeats Zagred by slicing his heart in half when Secre seals away his physical damage which allows him to draw out more power. However, Asta later learns his "Black Asta" form subjects him to a curse mark known as Weg (轍（ヴィーグ）, Vīgu) that makes him a target for the Magic Parliament, who see him as a monster that needs to be destroyed. At Julius' request, he later travels to Heart Kingdom, where he stays for six months to train and prepare for the fight against the Spade Kingdom. When Dante Zogratis invades their hideout, he battles him but struggles against him even with the help of Vanessa, Grey, Gauche, and Henry until Yami arrives.

He travels to the Spade Kingdom with the rest of the Black Bulls and battles the Dark Triad and the devils including Lucifero. A year later after the battle, he battles Lucius Zogratis and is sent to the Land of the Sun by Sister Lily who was turned into a Paladin by Lucius where he trains to master Zetten with the Ruyzen Seven whom one of them is Yami's sister. When Sister Lily, Heath Grice, and Yrul invade the Land of the Sun, he finishes his training and stops them with the help of the Ruyzen Seven.

Marx Francois (マルクス・フランソワ, Marukusu Furansowa) is a Magic Knight and one of Julius' advisers. He uses Memory magic to gather information from individuals, such as spies.

Augustus Kira Clover XIII[edit]

Voiced by: Jun Miyamoto (Japanese); Sonny Strait^[7] (English)

Augustus Kira Clover XIII (アウグストゥス・キーラ・クローバー13世, Augusutusu Kīra Kurōbā Jūsan-sei), the current King Clover and member of House Kira, is an arrogant and petty person who thinks that being noble is everything and has nothing but contempt for commoners. He is extremely envious that the people fail to acknowledge him when compared to the Wizard King. Augustus's need to be recognized motivated his decision to take credit for the Royal Knights which Julius actually devised. While extremely powerful as a member of royalty through his use of light magic, Augustus's overconfidence that his position alone made him superior to potential opponents convinced him to not hone his skills. Thus a majority of his spells are mostly showy displays of power meant to impress others, though they usually have the opposite effect and are easily dispatched. During the elf reincarnation arc, he is attacked by the possessed Langris but is saved by Yami, Jack, and Finral. He later makes Sekke Bronzazza his personal attendant after Sekke "saves" him from a Coral Peacock possessed Magic Knight. He then tasks Sekke to join the captains in the invasion of the Spade Kingdom.

He is also a user of Scale Magic, making him able to shrink and counter all forms of magic save Anti-Magic. Following the elf incident, after dispatching anti-monarchist nobles who attempted to kill Augustus in the confusion, Damnatio oversees Asta's trial for using forbidden magic before the Black Bulls intervene with Julius passing a decree for a Black Bull mission outside the Clover Kingdom to hinder Damantio's inquisition. Damnatio allows this, but vows to place every Magic Knight through an inquisition should Asta's mission fails and threatens the Clover Kingdom in any way. He is later asked by Julius to help defend the Clover Kingdom from an ancient demon. They both struggle against it until they are saved by Asta. During the Black Bulls’ battle against the Dark Triad, Damnatio conducted his own investigation on the Devils and realized an inconsistency that links Julius to the unaccounted devil Astaroth. Damnatio confronts Julius about this, only for Lucius Zogratis to manifest in Julius and incapacitates him before he could use his Scale Magic. Later, it is revealed that Damnatio has been turned into the first paladin, prior Sister Lily. He confronted the Black Bulls at the Forest of Witches. He almost kills all of the Black Bulls but is easily defeated by Asta when he is brought back to the Clover Kingdom.

Black Bull Squad[edit]

Yami Sukehiro[edit]

Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe^[10] (Japanese); Christopher R. Sabat^[3] (English)

Portrayed by: Haruto Sakuraba (stage play)^[4]

Nicknamed the Lord of Destruction (破壊神, Hakaishin), Yami Sukehiro (ヤミ・スケヒロ) is the captain of the Black Bulls, who are regarded as the worst Magic Knight Squad due to unorthodox and unstable members, being both physically strong and intimidating to the point of giving death threats to anyone who annoys him. Despite this aggression, he serves as a mentor to the Black Bulls, wanting them to be as strong as possible. A running gag involves him suffering from constipation and threatening anyone who disturbs him on the toilet, usually Asta or Finral. He taught his subordinates, especially Asta, to surpass their limits if they feel like they are at their limit while fighting. Yami originated from another country known as the Land of the Sun (日ノ国, Hino Kuni) as a member of an assassin family known as the Yami Clan (夜見一族, Yami Ichizoku). After supposedly murdering his family, sparing his younger sister Ichika, Yami fled his homeland and reached the Clover Kingdom where he joined the Magic Knights at Julius Novachrono's behest despite being looked down as a foreigner by his peers. Yami uses Dark Magic, using it to enchant his katana since his type of magic is regarded as Light Magic's polar opposite due to its slowness. His Dark Magic can also interfere with magic from the underworld, making him a valuable asset. He also possesses a sixth sense which allows him to sense his opponent's ki to predict their attack and counter, enabling him to learn of the connection between Patry and William. During the Nean Village arc, he wakes up Finral and gets him to take him to the cave to help so he battles Patry while Asta battles Valtos. During the battle, he teaches Asta how to detect ki. He is later saved by Gauche when he comes back to reflect Patry's most powerful spell back at him. He later struggles against the Third Eye until he is saved by Jack, Nozel, and Charlotte. He later does some more damage to Patry with an attack with Asta and Finral. During the Underwater Temple arc, he is barred by Gifso from playing the game he set up for the Black Bulls. When he sees his squad risking their lives against Vetto, he learns a new spell and uses it to kill Vetto. During the Kiten arc, he saves William from being killed by Lotus. During the raid of the Eye of the Midnight Sun's hideout, he is asked by William to come over to the Golden Dawn's headquarters assuming that William is apologizing for Langris's behavior. He later realizes it was a trick and arrives too late as Patry kills Julius. During the elf reincarnation arc, he easily defeats the possessed Marx and Owen. Then he briefly battles Charla(the elf that possessed Charlotte) with Sol. Later, he defends the king from the possessed Langris with Finral and Jack. He later enters the Shadow Palace with Jack and helps Licht and Charla battle Zagred before he gets separated with Charla. He later helps Asta defeat Zagred and captures Gueldre and Revchi when he notices that they are in the Shadow Palace. He is later targeted by the Dark Triad for his Dark Magic, needed to create a Tree of Qliphoth. Though he and Asta manage to defeat Dante, he is captured and taken by Zenon, with his katana left in Asta's possession. After he is freed by Asta and Yuno, he assists in the battle against Lucifero. He was near death until he was saved by Mimosa. A year later after the Spade Kingdom battle, he vows to fight Lucius after hearing what happened to Asta. He later participates in the battle against Lucius when he invades the Clover Kingdom and is shocked to see Morgen brought back as a Paladin. He struggles against Morgen until he is saved by Nacht and Ichika.

Finral Roulacase[edit]

Voiced by: Jun Fukuyama^[5] (Japanese); Brandon McInnis^[3] (English)

Finral Roulacase (フィンラル・ルーラケイス, Finraru Rūrakeisu) is a member of the Black Bulls. He uses Spatial Magic primarily for transport, and is a womanizer and a coward, but has recently started becoming braver. For most of his life, he was considered by his father and stepmother as inferior to his younger brother, Langris Vaude, due to Finral not possessing offensive Spatial magic spells. Unable to handle the responsibility of becoming the head of House Vaude, Finral leaves home and adopts Roulacase, his deceased mother's name, as his surname. This lack of responsibility led to his carefree and cowardly personality, and a fear of responsibility. Langris eventually becomes the Vice Captain of Golden Dawn, the squad deemed to the strongest, and looks down on Finral and the Black Bulls. After the invasion of the royal capital he sets up a mixer with Asta and Luck. During the Nean Village arc, he is woken up by Yami and forced to take him to help Asta against Patry and Valtos. He then takes Gauche, Sister Theresa, Neige, and the kidnapped children back to the village. He later takes Gauche back to the cave so he could save Asta and Yami from Patry. He watches as Yami struggles against the Third Eye until he is saved by Jack, Nozel, and Charlotte. He creates an opening for Asta and Yami to do more damage on Patry. During the Underwater Temple arc, Finral eventually starts helping out his comrades in combat, primarily using his power to trick their opponents and conduct surprise attacks, and his ability to manipulate and change the spatial location of his comrades as he wishes proves crucial with helping Asta against Vetto with Vanessa. During the Kiten arc, he helps Asta defeat Yagos when Langris fails to kill him. He later travels to the Forest of Witches with Asta, Noelle, Vanessa, Fanzell, Dominante, and Mariella to have the Queen of Witches heal Asta's arms and helps his squad defeat Fana and the Diamond Kingdom. Finral was gravely injured during the Royal Knight Selection Exam by Langris, and he was saved from being killed by the Black Bulls. Upon awakening, he aids Yami and Jack the Ripper during their battle against Latry, the elf possessing Langris, and manages to partially reconcile with him. He is later woken up by Nero(Secre) who takes him to collect the magic stones and revive the first Wizard King. Finral decides to accept responsibility and become the head of House Vaude, and works hard to overcome his womanizing urges to become a proper husband to Finnes Calmreich, the betrothed to the next head of House Vaude. He travels to the Heart Kingdom to train for six months. He then takes Yami back to the hideout to help Asta in his battle against Dante. He later goes to assist in the Spade Kingdom battle. He saves Langris when he sees him struggling against Zenon. They work together and damage him, but they fail to kill him until they are saved by Yuno. A year after the Spade Kingdom battle, he hears about what happened to Asta but doesn't believe that he is dead and decides to search for him with the squad. He and the rest of the Black Bulls go to the Forest of Witches to find out if Asta is alive and make a summoning ritual that will bring Asta back to the Clover Kingdom before being interrupted by Damnatio. He is able to bring Asta and Ichika into the Clover Kingdom and is given some of Asta's anti-magic. He then goes to assist in the battle against Lucius.

Magna Swing[edit]

Portrayed by: Kosuke Maiguma (stage play)^[4]

Magna Swing (マグナ・スウィング, Maguna Suwingu) is a member of the Black Bulls and is depicted as Yami's right-hand guy. Magna is a good-natured yet hot-headed delinquent who uses Fire Magic and rides his personalized broom, which he calls "Crazy Cyclone". Though his inherent-mana is low, he makes up for this weakness by launching several low-magic fireballs with varying effects. Magna was originally a commoner from Rayaka Village near the Clover Kingdom border, abusing his power in antagonizing the nearby village of Saussy. He frequently fought against the village elder, sharpening his skills, before becoming his disciple, who influenced his choice to join the Magic Knights. He acts as a senior to Asta and Noelle, accompanying them on some of their missions like Saussy Village where he helps them battle Heath Grice. During the Underwater Temple arc, he and Luck participate in the game set up by Gifso and battle Gio before they are interrupted by Vetto. They battle Vetto but lose. He later takes the Royal Knights selection exam but is not accepted into the Royal Knights. He later fights the possessed Luck with Asta and Vanessa. The relationship between Magna and Luck proves key in freeing Luck from Rufel's possession, and they fight alongside the Black Bulls against the reincarnated elves. He is later transported to the Dream World by Reve with Luck, Vanessa, Charmy, and Sally. They later escape the Dream World with Sally's help and he and Luck defeat Reve in the real world. Feeling that he is not becoming strong enough in comparison to Luck and Asta, he studies rune arrays under Zora during the timeskip to further his magic techniques.

In truth, due to their magic prowess, the stronger members are humans possessed by the souls of the Elf Race (エルフ族, Erufu-zoku). Originally based in the Clover Kingdom's Forsaken Region five centuries ago, the Elves were victims of a plot conducted by the demon Zagred who manipulated the ancient Clover Kingdom's envious royals into slaughtering them for their mana so he could possess their leader Licht. Though Licht and Lumiere thwarted the demon's attempt, Zagred manipulated the elves' souls to reincarnate five centuries later in human vessels. Only Patry, one of ten powerful Elf mages known as the Apostles of the Sephirah, is fully reincarnated as he assumed the identity of Licht and established the Eye Of The Midnight Sun to gather the elvish magic stones to place within a sephirah stone slab to invoke a ritual he uses to resurrect his people by transforming their reincarnated bodies into their "True Forms" (真の姿, Shin no Sugata) so that they can exact their revenge on the Clover Kingdom.

The human members who form the majority of the Midnight Sun are deceived by Patry into joining the organization under the assumption that they are also reincarnated elves and given True Names (真の名, Makoto no Na), unaware that it branded them as sacrificial offerings to activate the ritual, killing them all, with Rades reviving himself, Sally, and Valtos moments later. Once the ritual is finished, Patry is joined by his elf brethren and with most of the Apostles, consisting of himself, the Third Eye, Licht, Ronne, Drowa, Reve, and Lira, and proceeds with the final phase by acquiring the final Magic Stone within the Shadow Palace underneath the Clover Kingdom capital's palace. At the Shadow Palace, the boundary between the living world and the underworld, they can make the elves' reincarnation permanent.

The Elves learn too late about the truth of their demise and resurrection by Zagred, whose reincarnation spell also afflicted them with wicked hearts (邪心, jashin) that amplified their negative emotions. An elf who is fully consumed by their wicked heart is transformed into a Dark Elf (ダークエルフ, Dāku Erufu), losing all self control and consciousness, and using negative mana to cause blind destruction. Once Zagred is defeated, the Magic Knights and the reformed Eye of the Midnight Sun members manage to calm the other elves so they can be allowed to rest in peace.

As Patry cannot use William's grimoire, he acquired a four-leaf clover grimoire to channel his Light Magic for both offense and healing. While Patry hates humans, including his fanatic human subordinates whom he only protects to serve in his plans, he expresses a stronger loathing towards Asta for possessing Licht's grimoire and weapons.

Adrammelech appears shortly afterwards carrying Lucifero's heart as Lucius travels to the underworld to devour the heart of Lucifero's remaining half, gaining the devil's Gravity Magic. He also gains the powers of the rest of the devils in the underworld. Lucius returns to Clover Kingdom a year later to carry out his plan once he kills Asta, deeming him a flaw that cannot be allowed to live in his perfect world. After he seemingly killed Asta while taking Lily as the first of his Paladins, he considers Yuno as his next target while informing everyone present that his judgement will commence within seven days. After recruiting Yrul along with the revived Heath Grice and Morris to his cause, Lucius sends the former two and Lily to Hino to dispatch Asta. He later begins his attack on the Clover Kingdom with an army of Paladins including Morgen and Acier Sliva. It is later revealed that he can now use all his siblings' magic to create clones of himself and overwhelms Yuno until he is stopped by Asta.

Devils[edit]

The Devil Race (悪魔族, Akuma Zoku), or demons, are monstrous beings from the Underworld (冥府, Meifu) whose only amusement comes from tormenting each other and other races from the living world. Devils tend to manifest within the living world during strange occurrences, usually by forming pacts with mages who become Devil hosts (悪魔憑き, Akumatsuki) though they are occasions where a devil can bring its body to the living world.

Zagred (ザグレド, Zaguredo)

Voiced by: Showtaro Morikubo^[41] (Japanese); Kellen Goff^[42] (English)

The first devil that Asta physically encounters, Zagred possesses Word Soul Magic, which allows him to manipulate himself and his surroundings through speech, and Reincarnation Magic, which lets him manipulate a dying soul and place it in another body. Having discarded his body to enter the mortal realm as a body possessing spirit, Zagred masterminded the Elves' genocide five centuries ago in a scheme to possess Licht's body and use the elf's five-leaf grimoire. Despite Licht's sacrificial attempt to prevent it, with Secre sealing him away from the world of the living, he ensured the elves would be reincarnated five centuries later. While Patry intends to make the elves' reincarnation permanent, Zagred manipulates Patry into bringing his body to the living world. Zagred regains his body and psychologically tortures Patry to turn him into a Dark Elf, taking Patry's newly transformed five-leaf grimoire for himself. He battles Asta, Yuno, Yami, Charla, and the restored Patry, Licht, Lumiere, and Secre, and is ultimately destroyed by Asta, who slices his heart in half. He is mocked by Liebe before disintegrating.

Lucifero (ルチフェロ, Ruchifero)

Voiced by: Jeremy Schwartz (English)

The King of Devils who made his home in the Spade Kingdom within the body of the Dark Triad leader Dante, his Gravity Magic allowing him to freely manipulate the gravity of himself, others, and other objects. He can also possess low-ranking Devils. Prior to the events of the series, Lucifero attempts to possess the body of Liebe when the rogue devil ended up in the living world and fatally wounded Licita when she thwarted his attempt. Lucifero abandons Dante following his defeat and forms a pact with Morris to hasten the Qliphoth in order to fully emerge, an act that would destroy the world. When Morris is easily defeated by the Black Bulls, Lucifer sacrifices his host to open the second gate and possesses the emerging demons to create a rudimentary body to fight the Magic Knights. Though his monstrous form is restrained by the Black Bulls and destroyed by Asta, Lucifero manages to partially manifest half of himself in the living world and resolves to kill Magic Knights and every other human in his current state after acknowledging them to be capable of harming him. Though he defeats nearly everyone present, including Yuno and most of the captains, Asta achieves a more complete Devil Union and manages to defeat Lucifero, only for the devil's heart to be ripped from his body by Adrammelech and delivered to Lucius Zogratis. Lucis later travels to the underworld and kills off the remaining half of Lucifero, devouring his heart soon after.

Astaroth (アスタロト, Asutaroto)

One of the three highest ranking devils that left the underworld years ago and currently resides in the body of Lucius Zogratis, possessing Time Magic.

Beelzebub (ベルゼブブ, Beruzebubu)

One of the three highest ranking devils that made its home in the Spade Kingdom, his Spatial Magic allowing him to create portals and dimensional spaces that control mana. Initially residing in the body of Zenon Zogratis, Beelzebub is later purified by Lucius and placed within the body of Lily Aquaria.

Megicula (メギキュラ, Megikyura)

Voiced by: Genki Muro (giant form) (Japanese); Christopher Smith (giant form) (English)

A devil that substitutes for Astaroth and made her home in the Spade Kingdom within the body Vanica Zogratis, Megicula is the source of all curse-based magic in the living world via her Curse-Warding Magic (呪符魔法, Jufu Mahō), a power potent enough that whoever mentions the entity without protection is cursed. Prior to the events of the series, Megicula formed a pact with the Agrippa family to grant them curse magic and later killed Acier Silva at Vanica's request, the latter act revealed to be part of Megicula's plan to fully manifest through a ritual known as Malevolent Femcantation (邪心女呪音, Jashin Jojuin) where she is required to kill three powerful mages of the same sex. The ritual also allows Megicula acquire Acier's soul and magic for her own use. Megicula targets Princess Lolopechka as her second sacrifice, inflicting her with a death curse which led to the Clover and Heart Kingdoms entering an alliance to vanquish her. Megicula partially manifests from Vanica's body when she is defeated by Noelle, revealing her host as the final sacrifice before proceeding to overpower Noelle's group. But Megicula gets confused over Noelle's insistence that humanity's true strength is their determination as Rill, Charlotte, and Gaja revive to battle Megicula's reanimated soldiers. Accompanying Luck and Asta with the latter saving Lolopechka, Nozel damages Megicula's body enough for Noelle to destroy the devil's heart and free their mother's soul. Megicula disintegrates while accepting that she was wrong about the strength of humans.

Lilith (リリス, Ririsu) and Naamah (ナハマー, Nahamā)

The twin Supreme devils residing in the first level of the underworld, fully manifesting in the living world when the Tree of Qliphoth is established. Superior to the Dark Triad in power, Lilith uses Devil Ice Magic while Naamah uses Devil Fire Magic. They also have the ability to merge into a stronger form able to create freezing suns. The two are first to emerge once the gate to the underworld is opened, nearly killing Nacht when he challenges them before Asta intervenes. After Asta dealt a near fatal blow to Naamah, the two devils then assume their fused form to confront the human. As he continues to bypass their combined attacks with ease, the two grow increasingly uneasy as Liebe tells them that they are beginning to experience fear towards him. They are then restrained by Nacht, allowing Asta to kill them.

Gimodelo (ギモデロ, Gimodero), Slotos (スロトス, Surotosu), Plumede (プルメデ, Purumede) and Walgner (ワルグナ, Waruguna)

Voiced by: Ray Chase (Gimodelo) (English)

The four mid-level devils residing in the body of Nacht Faust, the vice-captain of the Black Bulls. Through the use of Nacht's shadows, they can manifest as familiars or larger, more imposing forms wearing animal masks. Gimodelo wears a dog mask; Devil Union with him grants Nacht the characteristic "Pack", giving him the ability to create humanoid dog creatures from his shadow. Slotos wears a donkey mask; Devil Union with him grants Nacht the characteristic "Toughness", giving him immense physical strength and endurance. Plumede wears a cat mask; Devil Union with him grants Nacht the characteristic "Agility", giving him great speed and evasiveness. Walgner wears a rooster mask; Devil Union with him grants Nacht the characteristic “Call”, giving the ability to emit sound waves that can stun enemies.

Adrammelech (アドラメレク, Adoramereku)

The highest ranking Supreme devil from the second level of the underworld. He is very apathetic, harboring no particular malice or hatred for humans, and refusing to fight on Lucifero's behalf simply for his own enjoyment. It was only after Lucifero is defeated that Adrammelech rips out the demon's heart and flies off, later appearing before Lucius Zogratis to present the heart to him.

She possesses a high level of skill in Water Magic, most often demonstrated when she punishes Asta by summoning giant water fists to squash him into the ground. During the elf reincarnation arc, she and the rest of Hage Village are attacked by a Purple Orca possessed magic knight but is saved by Asta and Yuno. After the Spade Kingdom battle, Lucius used his Soul Magic to turn her into the first of Paladins, granting her Spatial Magic by making her host to a purified Beelzebub.

During the battle against the Magic Knights when they go to rescue the children, Neige is saved from Baro's mud monster form by Asta so he can take responsibility for his crimes. Neige saves Asta by freezing Baro solid and vowing revenge on Sally and the Eye of the Midnight Sun for making Baro a monster.

Licht[edit]

Voiced by: Takahiro Sakurai^[29] (Japanese); Jerry Jewell^[12] (English)

The leader of the Elves who possesses Sword Magic, Licht (リヒト, Rihito) is the previous owner of the Five-Leaf Clover Grimoire currently possessed by Asta. Licht expressed a desire for his people to co-exist with humans and befriended Lumiere while falling in love with the human's sister Tetia. After Licht and Tetia conceived twin half-elf children, they married with the elves present. But Zagred arranged for Tetia's family and the human royals to attack at that moment with Licht watching his people get slaughtered along with one of his children when his wife was mortally wounded in the attack. After his Grimoire transformed into a five-leaf clover grimoire, Licht struggles to keep Zagred from possessing him before using the magic stones to turn himself into a mindless monster to prevent his possession. Lumiere is then forced to kill his friend to stop his rampage after extracting the elf's mana. Licht was reduced to a skeleton littering the area Hage Village would be built on, while being demonized by the Clover Kingdom's stories of the event. Tetra and Licht's surviving child would flee in the aftermath to the Heart Kingdom where their descendants flourished in Elysia village. While Patry assumed Licht's identity after reincarnating into the body of William Vangeance five centuries later, he has Sally create an artificial body for Licht's soul to inhabit once all the Elves have been fully revived. But the effects of Licht's monstrous transformation render his soul mostly asleep by the time he is revived, his actions driven only by instinct. He then battles Asta and Yuno in the Eye of the Midnight Sun's hideout and defeats them. While indifferent to Asta possessing his grimoire and swords, Licht takes back the Demon-Dweller Sword and accompanies Rhya to Clover Castle where he proceeds to fight Zagred with Yami and Charla. Secre later unseals his soul to restore his true personality and strength, allowing him to fight by Lumiere's side. Once Zagred is defeated and the elf souls are allowed to pass on, Licht decides to join his people in the afterlife while his artificial body is used by Rades to keep Patry among the living.

While her body steals magic and life force, her magic stores objects without mana into other objects. Licita comes across Liebe, who is immune to her absorption, due to being a devil and not having any magic. She adopts Liebe and gives him his name, living happily with him. Eventually, Lucifero partially takes over Liebe's body, and Licita uses her magic-absorption to drive him out, at the cost of her life. Before dying, she uses her magic to store Liebe in the five-leaf grimoire, to protect him from Lucifero and to grow up safely.
