Appearance

Personality
Zerceus is a cunning royal supremacist who believes that all mixed-bloods are beneath them. Since he opposes the current government, Zerceus is very cautious and ruthless. He has no qualms about causing the deaths of many civilians to reach his selfish ambitions.

History
Zerceus is the head of the Angart family and the second most powerful demon in Midhaze, after Demon Lord Elio. He played a part in Midhaze's administration, as he attended all the meetings to discuss new policies, and his opinions were always valuable. He was known for promoting harsher policies on royalty, but this would revealed to be a cover for his true beliefs.

After the segregation of royal and mixed-blood demons was abolished, Zerceus formed the Resistance, a covert group that disapproves of Midhaze's new decree and clings to its old ways of royal supremacy. As such, he dismisses Demon King Anos as a fake that was planted by the Unitarians.

Selection Trial Arc
When Anos abolished the nobility system, Zerceus was one of the many royals who secretly opposed the change. While seeking to recruit more members, Zerceus is introduced to Anosh Polticoal by Ramon Iver, not knowing that it is Anos in disguise. Since Anosh demonstrated his mastery of magic, Zerceus asks him to demonize a restrained dragon and have it rampage in Midhaze. However, the dragon went out of control and had to be taken down by Anosh.

Because Zerceus broke one of Dilhade's three rules, Anos reveals himself and uses Nedneliaz on him and his men. Under the effect of the collars, they would be in a dream where they are killed over and over by Anos unless they work for him to convert all the other rebels. After experiencing the effects multiple times, the heavily traumatized group finally kneels to Anos. Only once he's done with his task will the collar be removed.

Anos Voldigoad
His founding ancestor. Due to being a mixed-blooded demon, Zerceus refused to acknowledge him as the true Demon King and secretly plotted to overturn his just society. He shamelessly blames Anos for creating them, not willing to take responsibility for his actions. If Anos didn't leave his royal blood to create descendants to reincarnate into, none of it would've happened.
