Background / History
Aiyi is the youngest of the six Demonoid sisters born from the Demon Lord's power. Following the Demon Lord's defeat, she initially hated Heroes because one had killed the person most important to her; she nearly sought to destroy the world before her sisters stopped her. Seeing demons rejoice at the war's end eventually led her to abandon revenge and help preserve peace in the Demon Realm. 184
Though she holds supreme authority over dragons, Aiyi is largely a hands-off ruler. She leaves territorial and Demon Race affairs to her subordinates and sisters, preferring sleep and avoiding complicated planning. 284 660
Aiyi entered the Human Realm to investigate Shien, having identified him as a possible Hero. Her initial goal was to learn his intentions and the God Race's designs, but she gradually became attached to him because he treated her without ulterior motives or fear. 134 184 206
Her identity as the Dragon Demon was publicly revealed during Sera's arrival in the Royal Capital, exposing that one of the Demon Race's highest authorities had been living alongside Shien. 309
Aiyi later openly declared Shien to be under her protection, warning that anyone who opposed him would become an enemy of both her and the Demon Race. 440
She eventually recognized that her feelings for Shien were love. Their relationship became the basis for a proposed marriage contract intended to ease tensions between the Demon, Human, and God Races; Aiyi accepted the engagement once Shien agreed. 567 662 739
Appearance
Aiyi usually appears as a petite, childlike girl with a young face, an expressionless demeanor, and a pillow held tightly against her body. Her appearance causes others to underestimate her until they recognize her status or power. 134 176 186

Personality
Aiyi is blunt, detached, and uninterested in people or matters that fail to capture her attention. She dislikes formal titles, prefers being addressed simply as “Aiyi,” and often treats political or social obligations as nuisances. 134 185 660
Despite this aloofness, she has a playful, childlike side: she enjoys desserts, tends to sleep often, follows Shien around, and can become visibly pleased by things that interest her. 176 189 204
Aiyi is deeply protective of those she accepts as her own. Her attachment to Shien grows from curiosity into fierce devotion; she is willing to confront her own sisters to prevent them from harming him. 382 557 661
Her past grief over the Hero and the Demon Lord makes her emotionally guarded. She values the peace created after the ancient war, even while remaining uncertain how she truly views Heroes. 184 362
