Demons from a Thousand Years Ago

**Demons from a thousand years ago** ( 千年前の魔物 *Sen nen mae no mamono*, "Demons from a thousand years ago" ) refer to the demons that were participants of the previous battle to decide king 1,000 years prior to the battle that takes place during the present day of the series.

## Overview

These demons from the previous millennia participated in the same battle to determine their next ruler much like the demons of the present day. Although a winner had been decided by the end of this battle, over 40 of these demons along with their spell books had been turned to stone by a demon known as Goren of the Stone. Being imprisoned within stone automatically disqualified these demons from the battle and because their books were never destroyed in the process, they were unable to ever return to the Demon World even at the very end of the battle. These demons would remain trapped in stone for the next 1,000 years in the Human World until they would one day be freed by Zofis who would then use them in his plan to become the next demon king.

### Stone Tablets

The stone tablets are thick blocks of stone that each demon along with their spell book were sealed within. Despite being physically trapped and unable to communicate, they still retained consciousness. They are even able to recall the things they saw and things that have happened to them while they’re in this state.  The spell that trapped each of these demons was a unique spell that only Stone Goren was able to use which was Dioga Gorugojio. Even after Goren of the Stone had been defeated, the spell remained in effect and would continue to last for the next 1,000 years. While the stone tablets managed to withstand the test of time, what finally set these demons free from them was a special source of light that Zofis had developed that had similar properties to that of moonlight.

### Moon Stone

The Moon Stone is a large crystal formation that constantly emits artificial moonlight from it and serves a variety of purposes for Zofis and the demons under his command. When standing underneath its glow or even holding a small fragment of it, it’s able to heal any physical wounds and strength from within for both humans and demons.  While the Moon Stone proves to be useful in this regard, its true purpose is to allow Zofis to amplify his extent of control and allow him to manipulate the hearts and minds of multiple humans and demons at once. Hypnotizing these demons proved to be an easy task due to the state of mind the trauma from being trapped within stone left many of them in. Under the Moon Stone’s effects, demons are conditioned to believe that if the Moon Stone is destroyed or if they betray Zofis that they would return to stone. This mental conditioning proves to be so strong that not only are they able to ”see'' Zofis' illusion of turning someone into stone, but believing they’re the ones turning into stone can cause them to panic and physically freeze up in fear. Anyone who is not under the influence of Zofis’ manipulation through moonlight however would not be able to see any of these illusions.  No demons under his control are able to destroy each other's books as attempting to do so and being caught would result in this punishment.  In addition, they cannot use spells directly at each other to attack as their bookkeeper would automatically stop before they cast a spell.

### Behavior

Being trapped within stone for a millennia led to many of these demons to develop feelings of anger and hatred for the isolation and misery they had been put through. Many gladly served under Zofis after he had freed them because he had given them the chance to fight to their heart's content by assigning them bookkeepers who are conditioned to obey all orders without fear or hesitation. While these demons are not controlled in the same way their human partners are, they all remain compliant with Zofis’ orders and restrictions set in place by him out of fear of being returned to stone by him. Though many of these demons enjoy being able to fight again regardless of what for, some only went along with orders out of fear and awareness of the fact there was little they could do otherwise.
