Lucifer defied God in a moment of overwhelming pride and was cast out of Heaven into hell. Her path then crossed with Maria — an ordinary high school girl — in a collision that reshaped both their fates. Lucifer transferred her last reserves of angel blood into Maria and took her heart in exchange, binding their existences together permanently. Demon and human, inseparable. Lucifer went on to defeat each of the Seven Mortal Sins one by one, disrupting the divine plan to remake the world of mankind, and eventually claimed the leadership of the Seven herself. Then Belial, the Lord of Vainglory, made a secret arrangement with a third party that Lucifer did not see coming — and Maria was taken.
