What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He manipulated and possessed the humans into killing the Elf Tribe, especially during the day Licht and Tetia were going to get married. In return, Tetia was also killed during the event alongside their unborn child, which is Foeticide.
- However, it's been confirmed Tetia survived alongside two unborn children and two descendants of Licht and Tetia's children were seen years later. But the death of one of their first born is still impacted.
- He then helped the Royals drain magic from the elves with them witnessing the event, just to spite them.
- He corrupted and manipulated both Licht and Patolli, causing the uprising of The Eye of the Midnight Sun, reincarnating the elves' souls with a mindset filled with hatred for humans as he used them as pawns to his advantage, and also resulting in Licht becoming the Demon God.
- He masterminded the elves' possession over many humans and played a role in the elves' corruption.
- He wanted the humans and elves to kill each other off for no other reason than just outright sadism and amusement.
- He mocked Patolli over manipulating him the entire time and using him as a pawn for his plans. He briefly took possession of Patolli after torturing him.
- He stole Patolli's grimoire after gaining a new body as he was about to rule and destroy the world.
- He demonstrated Moral Agency over his actions by how he manipulated The Eye of the Midnight Sun and masterminded the mass murders as part of his plan despite being a devil. Which later on, Liebe, an anti-heroic devil, proved that his and Zagred's kind isn't inherited evil by nature.
