First Appearance Chapter 3: “The Demon Descends”

Background

Lily initially lived as Edward Connor’s younger sister, concealing that she was the demon Malkis. When Edward confronted her with a Pure Silver Cross, her demonic nature surfaced; she stated that she had not possessed Lily, but had descended in her own body and had only recently regained her power. Edward subdued her with Purification, accepted a system prompt to make her his pet, and bound her soul with a red collar. 3

Before arriving in the human world, Malkis was known in Hell as a cunning, treacherous demon who tortured souls. She had been Iblis’s neighbor for centuries, though Iblis later revealed that Malkis’s territory had been taken by an archduke. 138 139

Under Edward’s control, Lily retains her demonic instincts but becomes part of his household. She protects the family when ordered, trains Carrie through fear-based illusions, and turns the Connor home into a hostile proving ground for Emma and Esther. 17 26 39 42

Appearance

Lily presents herself as an innocent young girl, often using wide-eyed expressions, sweet smiles, and childlike mannerisms to disarm others. Her demonic presence becomes apparent through her inhuman gaze and the oppressive malice she can release. 3 363

  • Usually appears around ten years old. 42 139
  • Has blood-red or scarlet eyes when her demonic nature is exposed. 328 363
  • Keeps a pink princess-themed bedroom filled with dolls and lace. 39
  • Wears a black Gothic Lolita dress while acting as an exorcist. 190
  • Can conceal her nature beneath a sweet, obedient “little sister” persona. 39 43

Personality

Lily is calculating, cruel, and intensely playful. She enjoys fear as both sustenance and entertainment, often treating terror, torture, and violence as games. When cultists targeted her for sacrifice, she used her illusions to isolate them and fed on their fear. 29 30

Her apparent innocence is deliberate. Around Edward’s parents and ordinary people, she acts shy, polite, and harmless; around supernatural threats, clients, or rivals, she is coldly practical and willing to exploit fear, contracts, and overwhelming violence. 39 194 322

Despite her resentment at being controlled, Lily recognizes Edward’s superior power and obeys him as “Master.” His defeat of Beelzebub’s projection profoundly unsettles her, forcing her to reassess the hierarchy between demons and humans. 3 136 137
