Balflear was one of the loyalist supporters of the current Demon Lord, Leohart who acts as both courtier and trusted agent when spying on the Demon Council. After the events of Volume XII, he disappeared during the decisive battle with the Demon Council, then returned under the alias "Cleo Angeles" and was later revealed to be the partner of Shiba Kyouichi.

Appearance

Balflear appears as a young man in his twenties and has light green hair with cat-like ears, horns on the side of his head, pointed downward, and red eyes. He is mostly seen dressed up in a black ornate cloak that has a unique design.

As Cleo, he appeared to be a young man with short brown hair dressed in business attire.

Personality

Balflear at first appears to be highly loyal and respectful to Leohart as noted, referring to him in a respectful manner when interacting with him. He always went to spy on several of the Demon Council for his best interests for the Demon Realm. It is noted that Balflear maintains a calm and serious demeanor no matter the situation.

Balflear is an opportunist, and he is willing to play whichever side best suits his agenda. He's also driven by his desire for revenge against those who wronged him in the past.

History

In the past, Balflear's similarity to Shiba was the result of the Vatican's Cloning Experiments to create someone who could make a pact with a Demon God and later escape during the chaos caused by the latter absorbing Reginleif. At some point, during the Great War with the Hero Clan, he formed a pact with the Wraith to survive long enough for him and Shiba to enact their revenge on the Hero Clan and the Vatican. He soon became the attendant of Leohart for safety.

There are some times when he would return back and forth from the Demon and Human Realm, while under the human alias "Cleo Angeles" as an inquisitor alongside Celis.

Plot

Volume VIII

Leohart mentions that he wanted Balflear to act as the Leader of the Parliament, but he had gone missing after the Decisive Battle in the Demon Realm.

Volume IX

While at the Vatican, he takes on the name Cleo Angeles and works as an inquisitor alongside Celis.

Powers and Abilities

Demon Powers

Although he isn't as strong as other demons such as Leohart, Gald, and Lars, Balflear had practiced something similar to contract magic with different beings and use their powers.

Contracted Powers

Balflear is a demon who has made contracts with different beings and is able to use their powers.

• Wraith: He formed a pact with a High-Class Demon known a the "Wraith", letting him disappear and erase his presence making it useful for covert missions for Leohart. As such, Balflear is able to go unnoticed after leaving the Demon Realm several times. He can evade physical attacks by removing his body and remain undetected even by Chaos.

• Legion: He formed a pact with a being made up of devils, which are one-eyed creatures with their bodies' being sludge-like. Since Balflear has a perfect contract with Legion, he is able to summon as many as he desires without restrictions unlike Chaos, which required a number of sacrifices making it his own personal unkillable army. Chaos, Legion originates from a higher world.
