"I have my own demons and dark moods. It's weird - Phryix defending herself from a group of paladins hunting her"

Strong, beautiful and an abomination to the heavens, Phryix is the great demon lord that Arrid converted from true corruption. To understand how this happened, one must first go back to the time before Phryix became a demon.

In her mortal life as a human, Phryix was a commoner who was born under a poor farmer that lived in the outskirts of the city, Sentreum. It is a gift from the heavens if a female is stunningly beautiful but for Phryix and her family, it was nothing short of a curse.

As she grew up, Phryix gained the attention of many suitors but she did not answer or accept any of them because unbeknownst to her family, Phryix had another plan in mind. Far from her appearance, Phryix was a very strong headed woman who wanted to earn money the honest way. She didn't want to simply marry into a rich merchant's family. So when a suitor comes her way, she beats them up, claiming that she would never accept such a weak individual.

This didn't come without repercussions and Phryix did not live a quiet life. Despite her wish, she could not change how the world acts. In time, her rambunctious attitude and gorgeous appearance caught the attention of snob and stuck up young nobles who taught it would be a challenge to tame such a woman. Phryix did not like this one bit and she ran away from the city but managed to give all her savings to her parents so they could live a relatively comfortable life instead of always having to work

Alone and no longer in the safe confines of the city, Phryix started to explore the wilds with only her wit and a few tools she brought along with her. Unlike her unlucky start, the wild brunette found herself in many situations that helped her survive and eventually she gained enough strength to be recognized as a local hero.

But her luck eventually ran out and in a village she was staying in was the home base of a powerful cult who took her in her sleep and with great effort, sacrificed her to their demonic lord.

In the abyss through a miracle, Phryix managed to escape her captors and she maintained her sanity allowing her to keep an intact morality. Dodging and weaving through the abyssal hellscape, Phryix managed to collect the old weapons of unfortunate souls. With enough bravery and a lot of luck, Phryix managed to kill her first demon. As time passed, Phryix realized that she didn't age and every day she spends in the abyss is slowly changing her mind.

It was only at the heart of the layer she was when she managed to find a demon lord amulet. Furious and fearful for its life, the demon lord who was the master of the layer immediately came to try and kill the interloper who wields its amulet. When it arrived, Phryix surprised it and used the amulet along with her skills and weapons to slay the demon lord. Instead of loot, Phryix gained something different. She gained all the powers of the demon lord, its layer and inherent evilness but due to her intact morality she constantly fought against the corruption.

Slowly her mind was corroding and at the time of her almost complete fall, this is where she met Arrid who saved her from complete corruption. Ever since then, she makes sure to assist the solar who saved her and maybe due to her connection with him, she might have found the suitor she wants, if only the suitor actually tried.
