ngl i forgot who baal is, whats his deal

Ball is one of the 13 crowns, leaders of the demon world (under the demon king, semi-adjacent to the three greats). He's also the uncle of Sabro, one of Iruma's classmates (The "I will be the demon king!" otaku). He's ALSO the leader of the Six Fingers, the group that's trying to bring demons "Back to Origin" (ie, their truly evil and classically demonic selves). He's ALSO the sempai of Amy Kiriwo, the magic battler guy who iruma befriend before he tried to literally blow up the school.

So yeah, he's the big bad of this entire series.

Baal really played this perfectly with these incremental plays that let him tear it all down like this. I think if the worst case scenario happens we may get a full Iruma in human world arc where he punches his way back through with Alikred. The parallels between Iruma as delkiras successor is also really interesting, I think the reason he disappeared is that delkira fully reincarnated as "the perfect human" to match who he was as "the perfect demon".
We're getting to the climax of the manga it feels like, so I imagine the good guys will be placed on the absolute brink of destruction before things start to turn around.


We're absolutely going to hit the "worst case scenario".

Im suprised he wasn't just executed for treason right there, for burning down the crest of the Demon King, THE KING, the monarch. Certainly enough justification right there.
With the princess right next to him? The three greats reacted the way yu would expect with buring a contract that important but baal is being protected

Oof, this girl actually managed to annoy me. She has all the authority and power to turn the Demon World upside down, yet has no idea how anything works. All that power, none of the wisdom and responsibility. And to think I used to see her as kinda cute.
You have to remember she is being groomed into doing whatever baal wants her to do AND she is still young in the deity race

Hmmm interesting. Baal few chapters away was suggesting to get his nephew in line for Demon King. What sacrificial lamb Baal would've turned Sabrock into if his ultimate goal was becoming Demon King himself?

I still doubt Sullivan becoming Demon King himself would save Iruma. The story is about Iruma and it should be Iruma's own capabilities and friendship forged throughout that would get him out of this mess.

Is this the first time we see Sullivan's surname? Being Samael is a great deal.

Also, I love how the flower text bubbles depict Shura is a being above all.

Baal played his role masterfully, deserving an Oscar nomination for his 'Why? Me? I'm just a poor guy' charade.

I believe (though her name is written in katakana), that Shura's name may be based on Shura/Ashura (修羅). That name can also mean 'carnage, conflict, strife', so I'd bet her revenge on Baal, once she finds he bamboozled her the entire time, will be... brutal.

Thanks for the TL!
