The Devil Class

Zagred, the Word Soul devil behind the elf massacre, is the most powerful devil to fully appear in the story, warping matter and souls at will. The Dark Triad of the Spade Kingdom — Dante, Zenon and Vanica — fight as living vessels for devil power, making them threats far beyond ordinary mages.

These beings operate on a different scale entirely — only Arcane Stage magic like Anti-Magic or Yami's Dark Magic can meaningfully harm them.

The Human Peak

Among humans, the Wizard Kings reign supreme. Lumiere Silvamillion Clover, the first Wizard King, fought devils on equal footing, and Julius Novachrono's Time Magic makes him nearly impossible to defeat outright.

Yami Sukehiro and Mereoleona Vermillion represent the strongest active captains, both reaching the Arcane Stage and refusing to back down from any opponent.

The Rising Generation

Asta and Yuno, the two boys from Hage Village, climb fastest of all. Asta's Devil Union with Liebe neutralizes any magic, while Yuno's combined Wind and Star Magic, paired with the spirit Sylph, gives him overwhelming offensive range.

Noelle Silva rounds out the new era, mastering the Valkyrie Dress and Saint Stage to trade blows directly with the Spade Kingdom's devil-empowered Dark Triad.
