Background

Lavna waited year after year in the former Demon King of Tyranny's castle beneath the Great Tree Sea for the prophesied new Demon King to arrive. When Pei Renli appeared through the crystal ball on a stormy night, she immediately knelt before him and recognized him as the new Demon King. 1

She was created by the Demon King of Tyranny and inherited some of his powers. Her knowledge of the Demon King System and the Demon King Arena is limited to what he told her, leaving her unable to answer many of Pei Renli's questions about his transmigration or the system's origins. 3 9

Following the former Demon King's disappearance, Lavna spent twenty years throwing gold, treasures, and magic items into the castle's crystal ball on stormy nights in hopes of obtaining something valuable. By Pei Renli's arrival, this had reduced the castle's remaining wealth to a few weapons and scarce funds. 11 12 21

Appearance

Lavna resembles a young, beautiful human woman, but has a pair of curved horns growing from her head. She frequently remains concealed in shadows, allowing her to observe or assist Pei Renli without drawing attention. 1 11 20

• Curved horns are her most visible nonhuman feature. 1
• Can extend a pale arm from Pei Renli's shadow while hidden. 11
• Is able to pass through a wall-like surface when teleporting. 15

Personality

Lavna is intensely reverent toward Pei Renli, treating his arrival as both a coronation and the fulfillment of her long vigil. She routinely kneels before him, addresses him as “Your Majesty the Demon King,” and refuses to relax her formal etiquette even when he finds it unnecessary. 1 3 24

Her loyalty is active rather than passive. Lavna prepares supplies, researches people around Pei Renli, stands guard through the night, follows threats back to their source, and stays near him during dangerous missions. Her protectiveness can become overbearing: she secretly summoned goblins to provide him combat experience, believing it was her duty to help him grow stronger. 14 15 20 24

Story Role / Major Arcs

The New Demon King's Arrival

Horror Castle Aftermath

After Pei Renli survives the Demon King Arena's Horror Castle trial, Lavna treats his injuries with herbal medicine. She explains what little she knows of the Demon King Arena and confirms that she cannot train him in magic. 8 9

Naspar and Adventurer Training School

Lavna helps Pei Renli enter the Adventurer Training School by preparing his false background information and retrieving a spear from the former armory. Unable to enter the barrier-protected school grounds safely, she waits outside his dormitory, maintains his living space through the Puni, and investigates possible dangers around him. 11 14 15

First Mission and the Goblin Incident

Lavna secretly accompanies Pei Renli's first field commission by hiding in his shadow. Wanting him to gain combat experience, she calls goblins to the party's location, later apologizing after the encounter becomes more dangerous than expected. 20 24

Threats Around Demon King Castle

After Pei Renli's mission, Lavna investigates suspicious tracks near Demon King Castle and reassures him that the outsiders appear not to have discovered the hidden entrance. She later offers to track nearby Demon King Revival Society members, though Pei Renli chooses not to contact them. 24 25

Trivia

• Lavna added a postscript to Pei Renli's Notes of Demon King Atlas, describing his singing as comparable to a sonic attack. 10
• Despite the castle's former scale, Lavna's remaining resources at Pei Renli's arrival consist mostly of simple weapons, a few coins, and the Puni attendants. 3 11 12
