Stirbargen

Description

One of the Demon Realm's four most powerful lords and leader of the Red-Demon Army. He had been sealed in the Demon World subspace. He managed to escape to Elrios but was left without much of his powers in the Fahrmann region.

History

Demon King's Rule

Under the Demon King's rule, Stirbargen was one of the four demon rulers recruited in order to unify the entire demon world.

Collapse of Power

After the Demon King fell from his throne, a power vacuum soon consumed the demon world. The four major factions who once ruled under the Demon King now turned on each other in a desperate attempted to claim the throne for themselves. Stirbargen and his Red-Demon Army being one of the factions.

Betrayal of the Demon Lord

Stirbargen was eventually betrayed by Ran. He was sealed inside the Demon World's subspace. Stirbargen was eventually able to escape his imprisonment and found his way to Elrios, but in the process the seal that bound his powers was scatted across Elrios, rending his powers limited and reducing his form into that of a child.

Demon Invasion of Xin

When Ran and his demon forces began their invasion of the Xin Kingdom, Stirbargen was in the area. Stirbargen saw Ran while he was Fahrmann, but the two had already parted their ways.

Soon after, going through the forest, he ran into Ara. She tended to the boy's injuries and told him to seek a nearby village in order to seek proper care. Stepping back, Ara talks out loud about her concerns over Ran. Stirbargen overhears her and mentions that the person who had given chase to him called himself Ran. Ara jumped at the boy to tell her where Ran was, but she soon realized the absurdity of her actions, asking a boy to go back to the person he had fled from. Stirbargen told Ara a shortened name, "Tyr". He didn't mind as he told Ara he was meaning to head back to try and get back something important he had left behind.

Soon, Eun feels a monster close by and they soon spot a dragon just beyond the bushes. Ara tells Stirbargen to stay back as she planned to take on the monster, much to Eun's uncertainty due to Ara low mana.

Unsealed Power

After Ara was able to slay the beast, Stirbargen was impressed that she was able to defeat the guardian that was transported to guard the seal. With Ara unconscious from the battle, Stirbargen walks up and absorbs a fragment of his powers back. Looking back at Ara, he realized that Ran would probably be back to get rid of her as a potential threat, Stirbargen then believes that if he allowed her to grow, she might be an invaluable asset for him in the future. Soon he notices the strange hairpin Ara had in her bag, before he could do anything, Ara awakens possessed by Eun.

Eun is quick to realize that the boy is not human, sensing his demonic energy. Stirbargen tell Eun that the girl had help him removed the seal to his power, Eun is angered that the boy deceived Ara. Stirbargen corrects her that he wasn't completely lying, actually having seen Ran, going so far to say he might plan to track Ran down now that he has some of his power back. Eun is shocked to hear that the boy would simply just walk away after they had helped him. Stirbargen simply rebuts that he never said he would help them in the first place, however he did say he may return the favor one day.

The Demon's Bet

Eun lets the boy walk away, but before Stirbargen could leave, he mentions a demon he had once known, one who had once boasted about sealing a Holy Beast in a hairpin. Eun quickly jumps to threaten the boy to tell her who that demon was. Stirbargen was undeterred by Eun's threats, knowing his powers already far exceeded hers. Eun attempted to attack but was quickly halted by a promise she had made to Ara. He then makes a bet with Eun, that he would tell them all they need to know about Ran and the demon who sealed Eun the next time they meet.

Having made the deal, Stirbargen seeks out Ran. He remarks that Ran appears to be proud of his betrayal but soon states he no longer cares about his throne. He soon informs ran that Ara is a very important person to Aren and that she is soon to seek him. However, Stirbargen pins Ran with his demon powers, threatening his life, refuses to let him harm Ara and ruin his fun, intending to make a new bet the day they all meet once again. A bet that will settle the girl and Ran's punishment. He then let's Ran go and they part ways for the time.

Trivia

There are a lot of striking similarities between Stirbargen and Luciela. Both were Demon Lords that were betrayed by an underling (Ran / Barkat) and kept imprisoned. They eventually escape with all their powers drained, ending up in Elrios and reverting to a child-like state.
- Both also have unnatural pupils (blue rings / 4-pointed star) and sometimes go by a shorter version of their real names (Tyr / Lu).
