Description
Simeon, an angel originally from the Celestial Realm, arrived in the Devildom as an exchange student alongside Luke. Once a Seraphim, he was demoted to Archangel, becoming a warrior-class "low-level grunt" frequently overworked by superiors like Michael. He shares a history with Lucifer, having once considered each other brothers before their relationship fractured following Lucifer's fall. Simeon knew Lilith, the brothers' sister, witnessed the Great Celestial War, and did not intervene to aid Lucifer during Lilith's crisis.
He maintains a calm, gentle demeanor, nearly always smiling and composed even under pressure. This earned him the title of the "least intense" Seraphim, though the rank itself was noted as severe. Beneath this serenity lies sharp intuition and a capacity for wrath; his rare anger unsettles powerful beings like Diavolo. Simeon exhibits mischief, teasing his protege Luke—whom he views like a grandson—by comparing him to a "Chihuahua who thinks it is a German Shepherd" and deliberately provoking him. Pragmatic and morally flexible, he openly admits to lying, stealing, and manipulating when necessary. He displays little bias against demons, actively socializes with them, and prefers the Devildom's vibrancy to the Celestial Realm's tranquility.
A core aspect of Simeon's identity is his secret career as author Christopher Peugeot, creator of "The Seven Lords" (TSL) series. The books allegorize the lives of the seven demon brothers and have been adapted into anime and stage plays. TSL often predicts real events like Belphegor's imprisonment or Mammon's frozen credit card. As a playwright and director, Simeon becomes strict and demanding, driving cast members to exhaustion. His writing raises questions about prophecy, whether he consciously foresees events or inadvertently shapes fate. His stories sometimes cause harm, such as a cursed soundtrack linked to human deaths.
Simeon struggles with technology, frequently requiring help with devices like his D.D.D. or cameras. His preferences include the color celestial blue, the animal sloth, escape rooms, and tiny cooking. Culinary favorites are black tapir, Gehenna mushrooms, and fruit-topped pancakes. He feels a connection to his birth flower, the Hell Winter Daphnes, and favors autumn for its "calm yet slightly sad" atmosphere.
During the Ring of Light arc, Simeon stole the artifact from Michael to stabilize the protagonist's magic, costing him his angelic powers and blessings. This transformed him into a human, confirmed in Lesson 76, though the permanence is uncertain. Without powers, he became vulnerable to threats like magical crevasses but retained his resolve. Lucifer pledged to help restore his status. Post-fall, he remained in the Devildom or human world, continuing to oversee Luke despite his diminished role.
Relationships define his journey:
- **Lucifer:** Their fractured bond involves Simeon attempting to reconnect, often rebuffed. Simeon sees through Lucifer's pride, acknowledging his love for his brothers, which irritates Lucifer.
- **Luke:** Simeon acts as Luke's guardian and mentor, encouraging independence through indirect methods. He is fiercely protective, deflecting Lucifer's attempts to "borrow" Luke for stress relief.
- **Solomon:** A long-term acquaintance later acknowledged as a close friend. They reside together in Purgatory Hall with Luke.
- **Diavolo:** The demon prince openly dislikes Simeon, citing difficulty in dealings, possibly linked to TSL's exploitation of the brothers' lives or prophetic implications.
Simeon's development reveals divergence from traditional angelic obedience. His rebellious actions—stealing the Ring, defying Michael, and rejecting Celestial dogma—prioritize personal ethics over divine mandate. This nonconformity, enjoyment of demonic company, and moral ambiguity position him as an outlier among angels, perpetually at risk of falling yet steadfast in his chosen path.
