Black Clover: Julius Novachrono And Lucius Zogratis Identity EXPLORED

In Black Clover, we learned that Lucius Zogratis from the Spade Kingdom was extraordinary: he harbored two souls within him – one being his own and the other belonging to Julius Novachrono. Among the Zogratis siblings, Lucius stood out as the most fitting vessel for a devil. Consequently, he became the chosen host of Astaroth, one of the underworld’s rulers. Despite not yet knowing the reason why, Lucius yearned for peace and aimed to transform humanity by granting them eternal lives. He also shared this intention with his siblings.

In my experience as a lifestyle expert, I’ve found that assuming someone else’s identity can be a necessary step to achieving a greater goal. For instance, I once had to take on the persona of Julius Novachrono to gain access to Lucifero’s heart and set in motion a plan for peace. My quest led me to the Clover Kingdom, where I sought out two powerful magic users: Yami Sukehiro, wielder of Dark Magic, and William Vengeance, master of World Tree Magic. Both were crucial components of my vision for creating and nurturing the Tree of Qliphoth.

The Tree of Qliphoth serves as a bridge linking the underworld and the world of the living. Via this conduit, Lucifero made his way into our realm, albeit with diminished powers. Asta managed to vanquish the devil, an accomplishment only he could achieve. In order to ensure their victory, Lucius manipulated time repeatedly, enabling the Magic Knights to reach the optimal outcome. After Lucifero’s demise, Adramelech was dispatched by Lucius to retrieve his heart, while the remainder of the devil’s powers were obtained from the Tree’s seventh level. Combining these newfound abilities, Lucius transformed humans into immortal beings called Paladins, marking the completion of phase one in his grand scheme.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to share an alternative perspective on why Julius revealed his true identity to Lucius during the Spade Kingdom Raid Arc. Contrary to popular belief, it wasn’t just because Damnation Kira was closing in on him. Instead, it was due to Lucius’s desire to regain control of his own body.
