Don

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Master Artisan

Status: Immortal

Background: The head of the Kisaragi household, Don, had many of his works displayed in the Devil King’s Museum. His popularity soared to such heights that the museum housed a dedicated Kisaragi Floor, separate from the Devil King’s own collection. Though he took pride in Laeus’s growth, Don opposed his son’s dreams for the future. The Grand Philosopher refrains from commenting further. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Natasha

Affiliation: War Demon Empire

Alias: War Princess of Judgment

Background: After returning to the War Demon Empire, Natasha was appointed by Vaas to lead a special unit in a purification campaign — capturing countless bandits who roamed the wild and escorting them to rehabilitation facilities. Among the outlaws, she became feared as the “War Princess of Judgment.” On her days off, she visited the Holy Demon Kingdom to challenge Lylia, though she had yet to claim a victory. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Natsu

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Child of Light

Status: Immortal

Background: Natsu served as Blazer’s secretary at Silver Corporation while also helping out at Lala Farm. Everyone who spoke with Natsu said they felt invigorated, though the effect differed from that of Pochibitan D. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Haiko

Affiliation: War Demon Empire

Alias: Holy Beast

Status: Unknown

Background: After becoming the guardian beast of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Haiko accomplished much. He learned to read and created numerous poems. Whether by chance or fate, whenever he appeared before Pochi, a masterpiece was born, though Pochi never understood them. Haiko lived in the courtyard of the Devil King’s castle, drawing many tourists who came just to see him. Over time, people began to call him the “Holy Beast,” which led Pochi to start seeing Haiko as a rival. A friend of the Grand Philosopher. The lifespan of a Heavenly Beast remained unknown.

Bathym

Affiliation: War Demon Empire

Alias: Observer

Status: Immortal

Background:

After the war against Devil King Lucifer, Bathym moved to the War Demon Empire, staying in Gaston’s body without erasing the latter’s personality. He would occasionally take over to travel the world and take in the sights and observe natural phenomena. He learned the art of observation from Bright and later dubbed himself the “Observer,” though Gaston often mocked him for it. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Baladd

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Sky Ruler

Status: Immortal

Background: Baladd continued serving as Lina’s Familiar, patrolling the skies above the Holy Demon Kingdom. Despite calling it a mere “stroll,” Baladd’s vigilant nature ensured that no monster, however small, encroached on their airspace — A trait perhaps inherited from the Grand Philosopher. The people of the kingdom looked to the sky with peace of mind, and when they spotted Baladd, they clasped their hands and whispered, “Sky Ruler.” A godchild of the Grand Philosopher.

Haruhana

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Princess Popular

Status: Immortal

Background: After the war against Devil King Lucifer, Haruhana became the head of human resources at Silver Corporation. Her beauty captivated all who met her, and she wielded it with precision, recruiting the strongest candidates and placing them in the perfect departments. Many admired her for this. Rumor had it that she sneaked into the Devil King’s quarters more than once, but the Grand Philosopher had been sworn to silence, so the details will remain a mystery. A regular at the Devil King Cup, Haruhana was the undefeated champion in the cooking division since the second tournament. The Bruce & Betty siblings, who ran the nationwide Devil King Cup betting pool, often found the odds too skewed in her favor to accept wagers. In this particular case, people bet on who would come in second. She served as the Grand Philosopher’s personal chef.

Barun

Affiliation: Northern Alliance

Alias: Scale Tipper

Status: Immortal

Background: After the war against Devil King Lucifer, Barun returned to his studies under Minerva, but his natural talent soon surpassed his mentor’s. In response to the fervent wishes of those around him, he unified the settlements in the northern mountains, forming the Northern Alliance. As its leader, Barun, alongside his Familiar Ricky, exterminated the monsters that plagued the north, bringing peace to the hearts of the residents. When they built the Adventurers’ Guild in the north, a squabble arose between Catherine and Jacob, allegedly sparked by Barun’s remark, “I was being immature, unlike the two of you.” The details, however, remained unclear. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Ferris

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Invincible Wife

Status: Immortal

Background: After the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Ferris became Bright’s wife. She had meticulously planned every detail of their love life, leaving even Bright the Black Emperor with no way to escape. When she mistook Bright’s tearful eyes for tears of joy, the Grand Philosopher was left speechless. Ferris primarily assisted Bright with his Junior Minister work, though she struggled with intellectual tasks, leaving her with mostly errands to run. Although she was called the “Invincible Wife,” this title was only spoken of whenever she wasn’t around. A disciple of the Grand Philosopher.

Fuyu

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Demon Instructor

Status: Immortal

Background: After the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Fuyu took command of the special patrol unit responsible for guarding the kingdom’s interior and borders. Though she believed herself to be kind to her subordinates, her mindset remained locked in the era of the Devil King War, leaving few able to keep up with her. For this, she was often dubbed the “Demon Instructor.” On her days off, she worked as a sales clerk at Gaston’s Magic Tool Specialist Store and sought out new sweet shops. She participated in every Devil King Cup, but victory still eluded her. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Bright

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Black Emperor

Status: Immortal

Background: After the war against Devil King Lucifer, Bright was one of the masterminds who elevated Asley, the Eternal Fool, to the position of Devil King. He then took on the role of Junior Minister of the Holy Demon Kingdom, shortly after which he found himself practically forced into marriage with Ferris. Though he claimed it was a nightmare, it was clear he didn’t entirely hate the situation. Not that there was ever any room for anyone else to come between them. The numerous challenges facing the Holy Demon Kingdom were swiftly resolved by Bright’s cunning, just as they would be for Warren. A disciple of the Grand Philosopher.

Hidden Message: Look, I do NOT appreciate having my name paraded around like this. And remember, at the end of the day, most of what was written here was based on the Devil King’s own subjective interpretations. Ferris and I have a good relationship, yes, but we ARE NOT married. So, Devil King, I implore you — bend the laws if you must, but please, stop Ferris’s outrageous behavior. That is all I ask. And to you, reader — yes, you — and anyone who is able, please, I beg of you. HELP ME!

Platina

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Extremespeed Messenger

Status: Immortal

Background:

After the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Platina was assigned to the special patrol unit alongside Fuyu. When messages had to be delivered without the use of telepathy, Platina was the one to call. Occasionally, Platina would also carry secret letters, though these were usually of a private nature. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Bull

Affiliation: Far East Wasteland

Alias: Judge of the Foolish and Wise

Status: Immortal

Background: Living a life of eating and sleeping in the Far East Wasteland, Bull maintained a good relationship with Shi’shichou, who occasionally visited to hang out. He often served as the referee for the battles between Tūs and the Grand Philosopher, earning the affectionate title “Judge of the Foolish and Wise” from spectators. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Blue

Affiliation: Northern Alliance

Alias: Holy Dragon

Status: Immortal

Background: As Grand Master Minerva’s Familiar, Blue soared through the skies of the Northern Alliance, earning the love of the people for her graceful presence and the protection she provided. Recently, she had grown close to Kohryu, and sightings of the two Dragons flying together had become increasingly common. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Bruce

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Silver Wolf

Status: Immortal

Background: After the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Bruce was appointed head of the emergency response division at Silver Corporation. However, with few pressing issues to deal with, he rarely had to act. Using the excuse, “It wouldn’t be right to do nothing,” he patrolled the kingdom daily. He also took it upon himself to patrol the War Demon Empire, T’oued, and the Northern Alliance, until Haruhana finally assigned him as the gatekeeper of the Holy Demon Kingdom. Known as “the leading man of the Great War,” the kingdom’s northern gate had become something of a tourist attraction, though Bruce was rarely asked for autographs. A troublemaker to the Grand Philosopher.

Blazer

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Silver Lion

Status: Immortal

Background: After the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Blazer established Silver Corporation and took on the role of its president. Yet, despite his title, he often found himself with little to do — his subordinates were simply too capable. To occupy his time, he frequently worked part-time at Lala Farm, a favor granted by Tzar. Naturally, his secretary, Natsu, accompanied him on these endeavors. Blazer’s reputation as a formidable warrior attracted numerous challengers to his doorstep. However, none had ever managed to best him. His friend Bruce often grumbled, “Why doesn’t anyone come to challenge me?” A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Betty

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Silver Tiger

Status: Immortal

Background: Following the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Betty became the head of the planning department at Silver Corporation. She often remarked, “Ideas are the heart of any project,” but she also enjoyed wandering about to clear her mind. Despite her frequent strolls, no one accused her of slacking off. Unlike Bruce, Betty consistently delivered results. The “Women’s Survival Guide” series she personally penned became a cornerstone of Silver Corporation’s revenue. Particularly, the book “Women’s Self-Defense,” which she crafted using Bruce as a test subject, brought her fame across the world. The self-defense products that accompanied the book sold in droves, pleasing even Itsuki, who was often seen smiling contentedly. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Belia

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Old Silver’s Confidant

Status: Immortal

Background: After the founding of the Holy Demon Kingdom, Argent, the leader of Team Silver General, disappeared from the public scene along with Charlie. With the decline in monster activity, Team Silver General effectively disbanded. Belia settled down in a house across from Betty’s, finally finding time to share moments of parenthood that had long been missed. However, the two often quarreled. Despite their frequent clashes, these skirmishes only sharpened their skills further, though the neighboring houses remained empty. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Hawk

Affiliation: War Demon Empire

Alias: Undecided

Status: Immortal

Background: After returning to the War Demon Empire with Irene, Hawk dedicated himself to training students at the Magic University. His speech was rough, but he earned the trust of many students. Still, he lamented the fact that he had yet to be given an alias. He consulted his Master, Irene, about the matter, and they were currently working on one, but he hadn’t realized that spreading the name would ultimately be up to him. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Maïga

Affiliation: War Demon Empire

Alias: Haiko’s Surpasser

Status: Immortal

Background: As the Familiar of Hornel, Maïga resided in the War Demon Empire but found himself bored to tears. To alleviate his boredom, he picked fights with the Heavenly Beasts that had become guardians of various nations, and he lost every single time — except once, when he bested Haiko. Maïga remarked, “Strength isn’t only about brute force,” leading Warren to speculate that Maïga’s victory might have been through some form of debate. The truth remained a mystery, but shortly afterward, Haiko was seen moping and muttering, “Miss Pochi… if only I had more courage…” suggesting that Warren’s theory might hold water. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Mana

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Holy Foster Mother

Status: Immortal

Background: After the war against Devil King Lucifer, Mana took in many orphans under the care of Silver Corporation. Driven by the belief that “Every child deserves an education,” she founded the subsidiary “Devil King Daycare” with the approval of Prime Minister Leon. This excellent daycare, offering free admission from enrollment to graduation, stood as a testament to Mana’s dedication. Her unwavering love and equitable approach to education earned her the title “Holy Foster Mother.” Once a year, the Devil King himself would perform a picture-story show at the daycare, though the reception to his storytelling was lukewarm at best. (C’mon, why?) Though Mana had become a regular participant in the Devil King Cup since its third iteration, she still had a long way to go before securing a top spot. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Midors

Affiliation: Holy Demon Kingdom

Alias: Father of Three Mages

Status: Immortal

Background: After moving to the Holy Demon Kingdom, Midors married Idéa, and together they had triplets. The moment they were born, it was clear they had an innate aptitude for magic, leading to Midors being known as the “Father of Three Mages.” The awakening of his paternal instincts inspired him to pursue a career in education. With his newfound purpose, he took on many jobs at Silver Corporation while studying tirelessly, all with the goal of establishing a Magic University in the Holy Demon Kingdom. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.

Minerva

Affiliation: Northern Alliance

Alias: Second Grand Master

Status: Immortal

Background: After the war against Devil King Lucifer, Minerva took on the task of mentoring Barun. Though Barun’s talents were widely acknowledged, no one in the North could match the respect and trust Minerva commanded as a mage. At the behest of many, she took on the title of “Grand Master” from Chiquiata and later formed the Northern Alliance alongside Barun. While supporting Barun, she resolved many of the issues that plagued the region. A friend of the Grand Philosopher.
