Revest Aynie

Revest Aynie (リーベスト・エイニー) is a student of Class 3-1 at the Demon King Academy.

Appearance
Revest has brown hair and light-colored eyes. He is wearing the royalist version of the demon school academy uniform.

Personality
He's very kindhearted and doesn't want to hurt anybody, initially refusing to develop his  or any offensive magic, for that matter. After being taught by Menou that the Demon King used his strength to protect people, Revest began having immense respect for the Founder, to the point of becoming a Royalist and developing a more confident and arrogant personality. Despite that, his kindhearted nature is still present.

Like other royals, he stubbornly believes that a mixed-blood can't be the Demon King of Tyranny and vehemently refuses to acknowledge any other way of thinking. Though his ignorance became irrelevant upon Anos’ coronation, his biased views withered away through time under the new egalitarianism order of Dilhade.

History
Revest was an underachiever when he first enrolled in Demon King Academy; he was close to dropping out. He hated the founding ancestor for all the atrocities that he had committed, but even more so for the fact that he shared his blood. Since the academy was combat-focused, Revest even thought about quitting. It wasn't until Menou Historia talked to him that he began to see the founder in a different light. She told him that the founder might've been similar to Revest. If it wasn't to protect the demon kind, why would the founder use a spell that distributes his power and weakens him? After that, he gained respect for the demon founder far more intensely than anyone else and took pride in his own lineage. For this reason, he can't forgive Anos Voldigoad for claiming to be the founder, believing him to be a fake, and antagonizing at any given opportunity.

Hero Academy Arc
Shortly before the Inter-Academy Exam, Revest gets into a minor dispute with Anos over which class will face the Hero Academy first, which is eventually settled after Anos concedes. The third-years go first, but the heroes soon overwhelm them because the battleground is rigged with holy water. Because Diego was purposely neglecting the safety of the students from the Demon King Academy, Anos had to get them out of the lake personally. At first, Revest refuses to get treated by Anos, but he concedes after seeing Menou crying. Revest also shows Anos the badge of the Hero Academy that he took, which was used to control the holy water. With tears on his face, Revest was about to beg when Anos stopped him, telling Revest to leave the rest to him.

Great Spirit Arc
Revest and the rest of his class were suddenly attacked by a first-year who kidnapped their teacher. Anos eventually notices something wrong in their classroom and frees them from a dimensional prison with Sasha's help. Revest tells him about their attacker, Linka Theorness, and reveals that he put a tracking spell on her, allowing the Necron sisters to follow her.

Anos Voldigoad
While Revest absolutely detests Anos for claiming to be the founder despite being branded as a "misfit"; he respects his power, confessing that he felt satisfied when Anos created a holy sword and hurt the ego of the Hero Class. After the hero class cheats and humiliates Revest and his team during the Inter-Academy exam, he swallows his pride and was about to earnestly ask Anos to restore their pride as demons when he is stopped by Anos, stating that he already knows. During Avos Dilhevia' s reign of terror, he finally realized and accepted that Anos is the founding ancestor as their founding ancestor couldn't be someone who harms the weak.

Menou Historia
Revest shows a lot of affection and respect to his teacher, even in public, even to the point of wanting revenge, thanks to Diego insulting her. Both share a close bond, as Menou acted like a mother figure when he struggled in school.
