Lapis

**Lapis** is the main protagonist of *The Dark Lord's Confession*. She is a Magician who hides her identity and infiltrates the Area Academy as an apprentice knight. However, whilst practicing for the entrance exam, she ended up accidentally breaking the seal on the Dark Lord, Calla, and gave her an unintentional love confession.

It is later revealed that she is actually the reincarnation of the original Dark Lord. Following this revelation, she is tasked by her former disciples with retrieving the Constellation to recover her memories and power, which would effectively erase the Magicians' Curse.

## Appearance

Lapis is a short young woman with pale skin and light ash-blonde hair that she often wears in a loose ponytail. Her eyes are purple and light blue. She most often wears Area Academy's uniform. Lapis' curse mark is placed over her heart.

## Personality

Being the protagonist of her story, Lapis is very righteous. She often tries to stand up for what she thinks is right, and does not hesitate when making decisions if it is for the sake of others. For example, she defended Princess Charlotte who was being put down by her sister, despite the fact that the two do not get along. She has a self-sacrificial nature and will do anything for her friends, hence why she is well-liked among her peers.

However, Lapis has very low self esteem and is easily overcome by negative emotions, making her somewhat hectic and easily flustered.

## Abilities

### Magician's curse

Although Lapis has the magician's curse, she cannot remember ever receiving it. She laments having all the downsides of being a magician, such as blackened eyes when agitated or a curse mark, all the while being unable to use any form of magic.

It is unknown why Lapis has a curse mark even though she is the Dark Lord.

Like most magicians, Lapis does not want to be cursed. Hence, she tried over and over to receive divine power in hopes that it would nullify the curse and that she would finally be able to live a normal life.

Lapis often hears a voice in her head, shouting cruel or hateful things. She states not knowing whether this is due to the curse, or if it may be a forgotten memory of her childhood.

### Divine power

Lapis' special skill is regeneration. Lapis also wields a sword, which used to be Hecabe Libere's divine sword. However, wielding the divine weapon has spurred intense headaches for her in the past.

### Dark power

Although she is a magician, Lapis is mostly unable to wield any sort of dark power.

After recovering only one constellation, Lapis already possessed power greater than that of a Holy Knight. Being the source of dark power, she won't break as easily as a human when faced with the flow of magic. However, Lapis is inexperienced with wielding such an immense amount of power, and lacks control. Nonetheless, she is technically able to control whether or not she should turn into a dark beast. Furthermore, when recovering the second constellation, Lapis describes the Dark Lord's power as being "unpleasant".
