==Summary ==
Oersted is one of the eight main characters of LIVE A LIVE, and the main protagonist of the eight chapter, "The Lord of Dark". A young, highly skilled combatant, he wins a combat tournament in the kingdom of Lucrece, defeating his best friend Streibough in front of the castle, its inhabitants and its king, and is thus rewarded with the hand of its princess, Alethea. However, right as the two get some time to talk with each other, a demon swoops by, and kidnaps her right in front of Oersted. As is then explained to him, The Lord of Dark, Odio, has returned from the dead after being slain by the hero Hasshe and his friend Uranus the mage. With the help of Streibough, Oersted finds Uranus and then Hasshe himself, convincing him to put aside his misanthropic view and help slay the Lord of Dark once more. The four climb Archon's Roost to fight the demon himself, but upon seemingly slaying Odio, Hasshe realizes it was merely a minion, as he begins to perish from a plague ailing him. Not only that, but Streibough also perishes, as an earthquake buries him in the very same room.
Uranus and Oersted return to Lucrece Castle defeated, but in the middle of the night, Oersted awakens to see Odio in the throne room. He cuts him down in one slash, only to cast away an illusion, revealing the King of Lucrece's body. Discovered and taken for an assassin, or even the Lord of Dark himself, Oersted runs, with Uranus giving his life to let him rescue Alethea and prove his innocence. Armed with Hasshe's sword Brion, Oersted climbs Archon's Roost alone once again, but at its peak, he finds none other than Streibough himself. Resentful of his friend's success, and possibly corrupted by Odio himself, Streibough had faked his own death and framed Oersted to ruin his life: Oersted kills him, but upon finding Princess Alethea, she reveal that she herself had been in love with Streibough, and hated Oersted for failing to rescue her. She takes her own life, leaving Oersted truly alone.
Knowing not a single human being stands by his side anymore, Oersted finally gives in, accepting the title of demon and with it the name and power of Odio, The Lord of Dark. He slaughters the entire kingdom of Lucrece with newfound powers, then moves his hateful eyes to the rest of time and space. He summons seven "heroes" from different times into his world, to confront them and prove his view on the world superior. These seven come to face Odio, and manage to defeat him after a long battle. Desperate, he begs for death, but when that is refused, Odio gathers all the hate he can from the entire world to manifest the true form of the Archon, Sin of Odio. The seven once again stand against him, but this time fail to land the finishing blow, their struggle suffocated as Odio renders them powerless. However, for but a brief moment Oersted manages to remember who his once was and both metaphorically and physically frees himself from the grasp Odio had on him, landing the final blow himself.
After this, a dying Oersted uses the last of his powers to send away the seven back to their times and places, giving them one last, stark reminder. As long as hate exists, Odio will too, and if it's allowed to grow within a person's heart, the Lord of Dark will return.
