With Studio Pierrot officially confirming the highly anticipated return of the anime, fans are flooding online platforms with one massive question: Who are the devils coming in season 2, and how strong are they?
The upcoming Spade Kingdom Raid arc is entirely driven by the dark forces of the Underworld. To get you ready for the ultimate showdown, here is the complete breakdown of the Underworld’s caste system, the Tree of Qliphoth, and every major demon set to debut.
The Underworld Caste System: How the Devil Hierarchy Works
In the Underworld, power is absolute. Devils are strictly locked into a hierarchical caste system determined at birth. A lower-ranking devil physically cannot disobey or challenge a higher-ranking one.
The Underworld itself consists of seven distinct layers sealed away from the human world. The deeper the layer, the more terrifying the magic power becomes. To bridge the gap between worlds, the Spade Kingdom’s villainous Dark Triad intends to open the Tree of Qliphoth, a magical channel that unlocks the gates, level by level.
Low-Ranking Devils
These creatures possess monstrous, beastly designs. They lack specialized magic attributes and can be overwhelmed by massive amounts of raw, standard mana. An example of this is Liebe in his early life, before he manifested anti-magic.
Mid-Ranking Devils
These entities are vaguely humanoid and possess complex, specialized magic attributes. Defeating them requires tactical coordination or mages who have achieved Arcane Stage status.
High-Ranking Devils
These humanoid figures possess distinct, bat-like wings and an immense pressure of mana. They can completely crush entire squads of standard Magic Knights with ease, much like Zagred did using his Word Soul (Kotodama) Magic during the Elf Reincarnation arc.
Supreme Tier Devils
This is the absolute pinnacle of the Underworld hierarchy. These are the ten ruling devils anchored directly to the distinct layers of the Tree of Qliphoth. They wield world-ending magic capabilities that defy the natural laws of the human world.
Supreme Devils Summary and Hierarchy Breakdown
As the Black Clover season 2 release date is not too far, you should know the ranking of the demons.
| Devil Name | Underworld Layer / Gate | Magic Attribute |
| Lilith & Nahamah | 1st Gate (Highest Layer) | Demon Ice & Demon Fire Magic |
| Adrammelech | Mid-Tier Layers | Unrevealed |
| Lucifugus | Lower-Tier Layers | Passive Lethal Miasma |
| Megicula | 7th Layer (Unholy Trinity) | Curse-Warding Magic |
| Beelzebub | 7th Layer (Unholy Trinity) | Spatial Magic |
| Lucifero | 7th Layer (King of the Underworld) | Gravity Magic |
The Supreme Devils of the Tree of Qliphoth
These are the catastrophic entities ruling the gates of the Underworld. When the ritual begins to open the channels, these are the primary threats heading straight for the Clover Kingdom.
The Twin Devils of the First Gate: Lilith and Nahamah
Residing on the very first level, Lilith and Nahamah are supreme devils who epitomize sadistic playfulness. They possess a terrifying elemental duality consisting of Demon Ice Magic and Demon Fire Magic. Unlike normal human elements, their magic can physically burn or freeze intangible concepts, including light, shadow, and standard magical spells.
The Mid-Tier Gate Keepers: Lucifugus and Adrammelech
- Adrammelech: This high-ranking supreme devil sits on the upper-middle layers. He is uniquely detached, preferring to sit back and observe the chaos rather than immediately obliterate his opponents, making him a highly unpredictable psychological threat.
- Lucifugus: A supreme devil associated with the lower levels. Historically linked to the dark past of Nacht Faust’s family, his raw presence alone emits a passive, lethal miasma capable of wiping out nearby living things instantly without him casting a single spell.
The Unholy Trinity: The Rulers of the Seventh Layer
At the very bottom of the Underworld sit the three supreme rulers who govern all devil-kind by manipulating core aspects of reality:
Megicula (Curse-Warding Magic)
Manifesting through the Dark Triad’s Vanica Zogratis, Megicula‘s curses are generational, capable of bypassing standard defensive barriers and rotting human life force from the inside out.
Beelzebub (Spatial Magic)
Contracted to Zenon Zogratis, Beelzebub grants absolute domain over space. His spatial mana allows a host to create inescapable, absolute vacuums that instantly delete oncoming magic spells and trap opponents in compressed voids.
Lucifero (Gravity Magic)
The undisputed king of the Underworld, possessed by Dante Zogratis. Lucifero represents the pinnacle of physical despair. His passive mana exerts massive physical gravitational pressure that bends space, warps landscapes, and pins even the strongest Captains to the floor without him needing to lift a single finger.
What This Means for Asta and the Magic Knights
Because mid, high, and supreme devils operate entirely outside the laws of nature, standard elemental magic is practically useless against them. To even stand a chance, the Magic Knights must utilize Arcane Stage magic (magic that breaks natural laws, like Yami’s Dark Magic) or master Saint Stage spirit contracts.
For Asta, the incoming invasion forces a crucial evolutionary step. He must move past basic anti-magic weapon slashes and perfectly synchronize his mind and soul with Liebe to unlock the true potential of their relationship through the absolute transformation known as Devil Union.
