After becoming Yuuto's card, she gained a heart-shaped tattoo on her navel, the proof that she is a card of a demon king candidate possessing the Lover Arcana. Lizel's beauty is widely known throughout Ginsei Academy, and she is desired and lusted after by many for it, such as Aspite.

## Personality

Lizel is a serious, calm and collected, but also very kind-hearted, friendly and caring girl. Unlike most Devils, she does not look down on humans and is not arrogant, boastful and selfish. She greatly believes in Yuuto's resolve, support his decisions and has enough trust to let him fight strong opponents on his own, despite willing to interfere when it is necessary.

Lizel dislikes most of the other noble Devils, and Devil King candidates like Aspite, because of their goals being mostly to boost their family's reputation and their own. On the other hand, Yuuto, is different and thus Lizel believes he can change the devils if he becomes the next Devil King.

In volume 3, Neith revealed that in the past, she was different from her current self. Lizel was very scary and had a queen-like attitude. She was willing to crush anyone who stood against her or displeased her, but one day, out of nowhere, she changed to who she is at the start of the series.

Lizel helps Yuuto train and later gets abducted by Aspite. She attempts to attack Aspite after waking up, but her magic is nullified by Aspite's World Arcana. Aspite offers her to join him once again. Lizel is rescued by Yuuto and the rest of the Lover's Arcana's members after Geld reveals her location to Yuuto.
