Arc 23Wrath and the Seventh Bullet
Lilith’s jealousy and Erice’s questions about Novia brought the past into the open, while the Seven Deadly Sins gathered around him. Erice discovered that Novia was the Demon King and learned that Chitose had originated from him, then declared her love for Novia.
- Shekinah joined Lilith’s scheme to put Novia to sleep, while Metatron’s closeness with him made Erice wonder about their relationship.
- Lilith drew Kama into her plan to use the sins, but Metatron absorbed Kama’s lust and became Sloth before Novia helped her confront it.
- Melusine arrived and challenged Kama, while Novia learned from Metatron that Chaldea had cleared the Seventh Singularity and Kama revealed Lilith’s despairing love for him.
- Kama showed Lilith Novia’s affection for Melusine and Metatron, driving Lilith to transform into Lilith Samael/Kamael and attack him.
- Novia stopped Lilith’s assault and told her that the Lilim wanted to speak with her, after which Lilith joined the crowded Kuonji household and claimed Novia as hers.
- Satan of Paradise Lost approached Erice, but Novia unsettled him, and Erice later learned that Luce loved Novia and had moved out to avoid burdening him.
- Erice questioned Novia about his past with Martha, then fired the Magic Bullet Shooter’s seventh shot, which Novia caught and which revealed that he was the Demon King.
- Lilith claimed to be Erice’s mother through the wrath in the Magic Bullet Shooter, but Chitose stopped Erice and revealed that she had originated from Novia, prompting Erice to declare that Novia was the one she loved.
