Lilith 「リリス Ririsu」 is one of the highest-ranking devils connected to the Tree of Qliphoth and resides on the first level of the underworld, alongside Nahamah.[1]
Appearance
Lilith is a tall humanoid with long, white hair, blue eyes, and black lips. Lilith's face and neck are heavily wrinkled, and Lilith has a black mask that covers the upper-right quarter of Lilith's face and extends back past the ear. Lilith also has a pair of upward pointing, black horns; the right horn juts out of the mask and is longer than the left horn.
Lilith has a black marking that traces down the neck to the navel and a long, thin tail with ice-like spikes protruding from the tip. Lilith has feathered wings that emerge from the lower back. Lilith's right arm is larger than the left arm and is covered in a pattern resembling shards of ice and has ice-like spikes protruding from the shoulder.
Lilith's black dress has a deep v-cut that exposes the navel, and connects to the covering on the right arm and shoulder.
When Lilith fuses with Nahamah, Lilith's right half is combined with Nahamah's left half, with the right side retaining Lilith's ice-like wings, arm, and shoulder while the left side retains Nahamah's fire-like wings, arm, and shoulder. Their body is covered in the same black material with the same deep v-cut that exposes their navel. Some of the material extends out like a pair of long coattails. The upper part of their head is in the shape of both Lilith's and Nahamah's masks combined, leaving two eyes, one on top of another, in the middle. Their tail has both the ice-like spikes of Lilith and the fire-like wisps of Nahamah.[2]

Biography
When the Qliphoth Advent Ritual opens the first gate to the underworld, Lilith and Nahamah emerge and appear in Spade Castle. Lilith immediately attacks Jack the Ripper, who is sent crashing into a wall[4] and then is frozen to it. The two devils both attack Nacht Faust, but his Unite Mode: Felis allows him to dodge most of the barrage.[1] The devils wish to toy with the humans but agree not to attack Lucifero's host, Dante Zogratis. Nacht then enters Unite Mode: Gallus with Walgner, and uses its characteristic, Crow, to stop the devils' movements. He then drags them to another part of the castle through Shadow Magic. The devils are amused by Nacht's abilities as he traps them in his Dark Prison Hunting Ground. They decide to compete with each other to kill Nacht but agree to not fight earnestly. Their attacks force Nacht to continue dodging. After his kick to Nahamah fails, he returns to focusing on dodging. The devils question why he does not flee with his speed, to which he replies that he cannot forgive them or their unjust evil.[5]
Not long after, Nacht's Shadow Magic spell dissipates, causing the castle to be engulfed by fire and ice, leaving the mage severely burnt and pierced by frost spikes.[6] Nacht enters Unite Mode: Gallus × Felis and attempts to seal away himself, Lilith, and Nahamah in his Monument of Atonement spell, but the devils break out with their Demon Ice and Demon Fire Magic, covering most of their bodies with freezing ice and scorching fire respectively. They restrain Nacht's arms with their magic, causing him to cry out in agony, the sound of which delights the devils. Wanting to hear Nacht's final scream, Nahamah reaches for Nacht's throat, but Asta arrives and severs the devil's hand.[7] Lilith laughs with excitement as they have not faced anything so entertaining for centuries in the underworld. Lilith and Nahamah trap Asta in a twister of ice and fire, but Asta cuts through it and tries to behead Nahamah. The devils disappear into their own magic and then both launch projectiles at Asta, while debating which of them will hit and kill him first. However, Asta pulls out the Demon-Destroyer Sword and neutralizes the devils' magic.[8]
After Asta cleaves Nahamah in two, Lilith freezes the other devil and then fuses their bodies together, while laughing at Nahamah's loss and the prospect of continuing to play together. The fused devil wishes to hear Asta scream, but when he admits that he cannot feel their power, they unleash huge columns of fire and ice before flying high above the castle. They create a massive freezing sun in order to cause Asta pain from the deaths of everyone below. When they launch the sun at the castle, Asta increases the size of his Black Divider and reflects the sun back at the fused devil.[9] They merge into their sun, so Asta cuts it open with the Demon-Dweller Sword and then flies into it.
Inside the sun, the fused devil unleashes torrents of magic, but Asta neutralizes their magic again. No longer enjoying the fight, they begin to feel a foreign emotion, which Liebe correctly surmises is fear. The fused devil flees from Asta to wait for his transformation to end. After gaining some distance, the fused devil gloats and proclaims that they will crush him, his companions, and all humans. However, Nacht emerges from their shadow on an ice chunk behind them, and restrains them long enough for Asta to close the distance. The fused devil is cut into pieces right before Asta's transformation ends.[10] The fused devil's body then disintegrates, but their magic continues to cover the castle.[11]
Battle Prowess
Magic
- Demon Ice Magic: Lilith uses this magic attribute to generate and manipulate a sinister form of Ice Magic. This frost is capable of freezing anything and everything, including shadows, light, and even invisible concepts.[12] Lilith is also able to turn its own body into ice, which it uses to dodge attacks entirely by merging with and moving through its own ice.[13] Lilith is incredibly proficient in the use of this magic and can create barrages of ice shards,[14] waves of freezing frost,[15] and blizzards that freeze anything in their paths.[16]
Abilities
- Immense Magic Power: As one of the devils connected to the Tree of Qliphoth, Lilith possesses immense magic power, greater than that of the Dark Triad.[1]
- Fusion: After Nahamah is cleaved in two, Lilith fuses their bodies together. This fusion dramatically increases their magic power, far beyond a simple sum of their previous amounts. They are able to use both of their magic attributes simultaneously, as well as combine their attributes together.[17]
Fights
Trivia
- Lilith was a class of female spirits in multiple ancient mythologies and became a female demon in Jewish mythology.
