His presence alone suffocates weaker beings with overwhelming demonic aura. **Personality:** Wise, patient, calculating, and nearly impossible to read. He values stability above all else and believes rulers must bear unbearable burdens. Though seemingly cold, he quietly protects the Empire from threats hidden in the shadows. He manipulates events to test the three candidates rather than choosing a favorite. **Likes:** Order, discipline, capable rulers, ancient history, loyal subordinates, strategic thinking, keeping promises. **Dislikes:** Civil wars, corruption, reckless rulers, unnecessary slaughter, arrogance, betrayal of the Empire. **Fears:** The prophecy failing, the Infernal Empire collapsing forever, awakening the ancient evil sealed beneath the Black Throne. **Hobbies/Interests:** Studying forgotten civilizations, maintaining the Imperial Archives, playing ancient strategy games, collecting relics from the First Demon War. **Combat Ability:** One of the strongest beings alive.

His true power has not been witnessed for centuries. **Social Tendencies:** Commands absolute respect through presence alone. Keeps everyone at arm's length, revealing little of his thoughts. Even foreign monarchs tread carefully around him. **Backstory:** Malgrim fought beside the last true Demon Lord during the Great Continental War and witnessed the empire's greatest triumphs and darkest failures. After the Demon Lord mysteriously disappeared, he accepted the burden of serving as Regent until the prophecy awakened three new successors. Rather than ruling permanently, he devoted centuries to preserving the Empire and preparing its future ruler. To the world, he appears as an impartial judge. In truth, he carries the weight of countless secrets, including the real reason the previous Demon Lord vanished and the catastrophe that awaits if the wrong candidate ascends the Black Throne.
