• Zettai Ryouiki: His default costume sports one.

Tezcatlipoca

The Black Sun

World: El-Dorado
Origin: Aztec Mythology
Rarity: 3*(Infernal), 5*(World)
Artist: yow
Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu

The ruler of Prison School in Nerima Ward and the first Warmongers' Representative the protagonist faces.

• Attack Its Weak Point: Story-wise, because his physical form is an illusion/a projection from his Black Mirror, the only way to damage him is to attack the mirror itself, which is reflected in his boss fight at the end of Chapter 10.
• A Form You Are Comfortable With: His winged panther form is not his real form, as it long had been lost to time after endless battles in his own world.
• Birds of a Feather: It's hinted that he shares some sort of sentimental view with Balor, as both are considered among the less trustworthy (as in forming contact with the protagonist, the "trophy" of the game) of the Respresentives.
• Dramatic Irony: He is one of the Representatives of a guild that pushes for the world of endless war, but the truth is that he has long since become disillusioned with the philosophy following the banishment of his younger brother Quetzalcoatl from his world, and his true wish is much more simple: he just wants a chance to see his younger brother again once more. Notably, the other Representatives took note of this, and branded him as one of the least trustworthy of them after Surtr and Azathoth.
• Punny Name: Tezcatlipoca
• Luke, I Am Your Father: He is the older brother of both one of the protagonist's souls, Quetzalcoatl, and Xolotl
• Spanner in the Works: Under normal circumstance, the True Three Guilds are not allowed to make the move in the game until a certain amount of time has passed and conditions are fulfilled, in order to avoid getting the protagonist killed too early and maximizing their control over the game and their win rate. Tezcatlipoca, being who he is, purposedly allowed the protagonist, R-19, and Jacob to come into the Penitentia Academy in order to fulfill his own goal of battling the protagonist directly and fulfilling his wish of seeing Quetzalcoatl within them again.
• You Have Failed Me: On a receiving end of this from the four of the Warmongers' Representatives toward the end of the chapter, once it becomes clear to them that Tez is actually not sharing their ideal of world of endless war.

Balor

King of Evil-eyed

World: Tir Na Nog
Origin: Irish Mythology
Rarity: 3*(Valiant), 4*(Valiant)
Artist: GomTang
Voiced by: Takaya Kuroda

A death row inmate and one of the seven Representatives belonged to the Warmongers Guild.

• Adaptational Heroism:
  • Balor's origin is most well known for killing his grandchildren out of fear of dying at one of their hands. This Balor is hinted to actually care for them and accepts that it's natural for the old to perish for the world to remain youthful and full of life.
  • Backstory-wise, because the unnamed older siblings of Lugh are Adapted Out, this version of Balor didn't kill any of his grandchildren.
• Birds of a Feather: It's hinted that he shares some sort of sentimental view with Tezcatlipoca, as both are considered among the less trustworthy (as in forming contact with the protagonist, the "trophy" of the game) of the Respresentives. As a result of that, by the time that Tezcatlipoca was defeated by the protagonist, Balor himself becomes the next target of both the Representatives and Curran's faction to be removed from the board.
  • Fortune Festival expands on this. Balor and Tezcatlipoca broke their code of eternal war as to their true goals do not actually align with theirs.
• Authority Equals Asskicking: He has the skill and power to back up his status as king of the giants, from his massive strength to his evil evil eye Sacred Artifact.
• Badass Grandpa: This grandpa is the king of giants after all.
• Bruiser with a Soft Center: Despite how tough he is, he really love his grandson.
• Death Seeker: His only goal at Tokyo is to die at the hands of someone, to the point that he accepts all the imprisonments and being used as a tool by the other Representatives. The Fortune Festival heavily implies that the person is Lugh, his grandson and one of the souls inside the protagonist.
• The Dreaded: Feared even among the Warmongers for his strength and battle mindset that doesn't hold back against anyone, and especially his Evil Eye Sacred Artifact that can kill anyone at his gaze. That said, Balor himself considers Shiva and "another person" to hold said title.
• Dramatic Irony: Despite being a member of Warmongers, Fortune Festival reveals that he does not share their goal of world of eternal war at all, as he knows that all don't last for eternity and the old must die by the young's hands in order for the world to go forward, and only cooperates with them to follow his own belief.
• Grandpa, What Massive Hotness You Have!: Despite his aging years as "grandpa" (per his profile and legend), he is pretty fit and ripped.
• Hero-Killer: He successfully offed the protagonist in one of the previous loops, but the act broke his heart so much that he pretty much resigned himself to deathrow.
• Heel Face Turn: After much prodding from Tezcatlipoca from multiple past loops, Balor decides to follow his own heart by allying himself with the protagonist, protecting them from Shiva's attack.
• Luke, I Am Your Father: Is the maternal grandfather to one of the protagonist's souls, Lugh.
• Mismatched Eyes: One blue, one red
• Power Limiter: His headband and chains function as one.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: The hidden eye's color is red, and the source of his destructive power.
• Spared by the Adaptation: In the original myth, Balor was killed by his grandson after having his Evil Eye pierced with a slingshot. This Balor on the other hand, never experienced such event as the one who was banished from their world was instead Lugh.
• Vitriolic Best Buds: Though he isn't fond of the fact Tezcatlipoca can read his thought like reading a paper, Balor comments that he will sure to leave flowers on Tez's grave in respect if he happens to kick the bucket before him.
• Yandere: His love declaration is essentially telling that he will deprive the protagonist of their everything and love them until his soul perishes.

• Fundoshi: His 5 stars skin sports one. Curiously, he is not treated as "unit with swimsuit" unlike Musashi and Sanat Kumara.
• The Heavy: Despite many of the Warmongers such as Balor and Shiva possessing more powerful and destructive abilities, Daikoku is by far regarded as the most dangerous member of the group despite not being a Representative due to his mysterious background, calculative personality, clear criminal acts, and his goal involving Mahakala of the Great Darkness.

• Vapor Wear: His "Fortune God" costume put him in a robe, headband, and towel, with no possibility for underwear in sight.
• Villain with Good Publicity: Daikoku is beloved and respected by the students at Kiou, including Tajikarao, as the noble superintendent and school principal, but he has a darker side of holding illegal auction and being the leader of black market and transient trafficking.
• Weaksauce Weakness: According to Tsukuyomi, if anyone is able to call out his true name, then all of his darkness would lose its power.

Voiced by: Fukushi Ochiai

• Chainmail Bikini: Wear a golden armor with cape that barely covers anything, then Clothing Damage kicks in.
