10Seris Vritra
The Shadow Schemer
Scythe of Sehz-Clar and master of the mysterious Void Wind mana art,Seris manipulates space, gravity, and light distortionwith frightening precision. Her true strength lies not just in her formidable combat abilities but in her brilliance and willingness tooperate from the shadows.
Recognizing Arthur’s potential long before others, she positioned herself carefully within Alacrya’s power structure while secretlyorchestrating rebellion against Agrona. She can hold her own even against stronger opponents, and if given enough time, can flip the script on almost anyone -even Agrona.
Herpower is matched only byher foresight.
The Soulfire Master
As the strongest of the Scythes, Cadell wields theterrifying Soulfire- black flames capable of both disintegration and regeneration. His Vritra lineage grants him abilities far beyond normal mages, including partial intangibility andformidable physical capabilitiesenhanced by his bloodline.
Even as Arthur gained Aether abilities, Cadell remained a significant threat, demonstrating power that bordered on Low Asura levels. His combat experience andrefined techniquemade him Agrona’s most trusted warrior, responsible for thedeath of the weakened dragon Sylvia.
His presence alone commanded fear throughout Alacrya, marking him as thepinnacle of Vritra-blooded Scythes.
The Dragon Envoy
Serving as Kezess Indrath’s direct envoy, Windsom possesses theimmense power expected of an elderfrom the Indrath clan. His high-level mana manipulation and possible limited Aether influence make him formidable even among Asuras.
Though primarily acting as Arthur’s initialguide to Epheotus, Windsom’s combat capabilities shouldn’t be underestimated. He participated in the failed mission against Agrona, and hismere presencereportedly made evenAldir shiver.
While his role often seems more supervisory than combative, his position within the Indrath hierarchy and implied capabilities place him firmly among theelite High Asura tier.
The Pantheon Prodigy
Trained by combat master Kordri and marked as apotential World Eater wielder, Taci represents the future of Asura power. Despite his youth by Asuran standards, his skills earned recognition from Kezess himself, placing him in anelite category ofgreek-style warriors.
His clash with Arthur in the Aether-rich Relictombs demonstrated both his formidable abilities and the limitations of his understanding.
While possessing incredible mana control and physical prowess befitting his Pantheon lineage, Taci’s defeat showcased the fundamental difference betweeninherited power and hard-earned insight. Still, his potential remains vast, with combat abilities potentially surpassing many adult Asuras.
The World Eater
Considered the strongest Pantheon of his generation, Aldir possesses the most devastating single technique in the known world. HisWorld Eater spell annihilated the forest of Elenoir, destroying both life and mana across an entire region in seconds.
This fiercely loyal warrior of Kezess contended with multiple Asuras during a failed mission against Agrona, showcasing combat abilities that place him at thehighest echelon of non-leader Asuras.
Hismastery of mana and overwhelming presenceled Arthur to describe him as a “super predator,” a force of nature whose raw destructive potential ismatched by fewin existence.
5Cecilia Hornsheim
The Mana Legacy
Reincarnated from Earth into Tessia’s body, Cecilia possesses an ability that defies the established rules of the world. Her status as"The Legacy"grants her absolute control over all four mana elements and their deviants, manipulating mana with finesse surpassingeven experienced Asuras.
Despite herrelative lack of combat experience, her raw power allows her to absorb ambient mana and the cores of defeated opponents, creatingintricate mana constructson a scale that terrifies even elite fighters like Wren Kain IV.
She represents Agrona’s ultimate weapon against Kezess, a mana anomaly whose potential growth seems limitless, limited only by herdeveloping combat techniquerather than any ceiling on her power.
4Arthur Leywin
The Aether Master
Arthur’s experiences transformed him from a mana prodigy intosomething unprecedented. After losing his white mana core, he formed aunique Aether Core, allowing him to directly manipulate the fundamental force governing reality itself.
Combined with his Asuran physique, this makes him a true anomaly in the world’s power structure. His mastery of God Runes grants him abilitiestranscending normal magic:
God Step for instant teleportation,Aroa’s Requiemfor limited time reversal, Destruction for overwhelming offensive power, and Aetheric Realmheart for perceiving and influencing mana through Aether. Plus, there’s alsoRegis and Sylvie.
Having defeated Taci, contended with multiple Scythes, and even brieflyclashed with Agrona, Arthur continues his exponential growth, with seemingly limitless potential as his Aether insight deepens.
The Phoenix Mystery
The presumed leader of the Asclepius Clan and former close friend of Kezess, Mordain remains shrouded in mystery after hisself-imposed exilefollowing the Djinn genocide. As a Phoenix, he likely possesses supreme mastery over Vivum arts related to life and healing.
His placement among the strongest stems from his narrative significance and implied power. Hisstatus approaches that of other Great Clan leaders, with speculation regardingpotential Aether knowledgeand possible connection to training Rinia.
Despite limited concrete feats, his relationship with Kezess and potential influence on events behind the scenes mark him as one of themost formidable beings in the TBATE universe.
2Agrona Vritra
The Sovereign Scientist
High Sovereign of Alacrya and leader of the Vritra Clan, Agrona compensates for his relative inferiority toKezess in raw mana powerthrough unparalleled intellect and forbidden research. His mastery of decay-type mana arts combines with profound knowledge ofrunes and spellformsderived from Djinn experiments.
His true strength lies in his ability to manipulate souls and memories,achieve reincarnation, and orchestrate continental war throughstrategic brilliance. He engineered Vritra’s unnatural power increase and forced Kezess into a treaty despiteEpheotus’s military advantage,cementing himself asa fine villainfor Arthur.

1Kezess Indrath
The Dragon King
At the absolute zenith of power in The Beginning After The End standsKezess Indrath, King of Dragonsand ruler of Epheotus. His mere presence exerts pressure capable of overwhelming other Asuran leaders, with mastery over the Indrath clan’s Aether arts, particularly inTime and Space manipulation.
Combined with his potent King’s Force, unparalleled mana reserves, and strategic acumen honed over millennia, Kezess stands unchallenged at thepeak of conventional power.
While Agrona’sintellect and unique abilitiespose the only real threat to his dominance, Kezess remains the benchmark against which all other power in the TBATE universe is measured, a being whose full capabilities areyet to be fully displayed.
