Personality
Julius is known to have an obsession over magics where he loves to explore the Kingdom in search of magics that he had never seen before. Usually, his childish personality would emerge when he finds a new type of magic and gets excited to see it in action. Julius would also goes as far as disguising himself, so he could conduct his search without being recognized by the citizens.

Due to his childish nature, Julius also has a penchant of leaving his duty as the Magic Emperor or intentionally left high ranking Knights in the same room as low ranking Knights even though he is aware that they would eventually clashed.

Despite that, Julius is also a very wise man with a wide knowledge and experience on magics and social dynamics. This can be seen when he recognizes the artefact that Yuno had found inside a dungeon and when he sheds some light to him and Asta regarding the weight of being a Magic Emperor. In addition, Julius also does not see people based on their social standings as he still treats Asta and Yuno in the same way he treats the other Knights regardless of their rankings.

Biography
During a conflict between the Clover Kingdom and the Diamond Kingdom, Julius encounters Lotus Whomalt on the battlefield where he gets to see the latter's battle prowess.

Years later, Julius returns to the Noble region along with several Knights from defending against a foreign invasion. They are welcomed with joy and cheers from the Noble region's citizens.

Six months later, Julius decides to disguise himself as an old lady and wander around Kikka's black market. He then gambles against Sekke Bronzazza, which he manages to outmatch the young Knight. Not long after, a thief snatches his belongings and runs away. Fortunately, Sekke and several other Knights from the Black Bull squad are able to apprehend the culprit. When one of those Knights, Asta, returns his belongings, Julius removes his disguises as the Black Bull members are leaving. He then begins to take an interest on Asta after seeing him using the anti magic. Subsequently, Julius receives a call from his subordinate that requests for his immediate presence but the Emperor ignores his subordinates. When the said subordinates informs him about an emerging problem, Julius assures him that he found the perfect candidate to solve it.

Later on, Julius assigns Asta on a mission to explore a newly emerged dungeon by sending a formal letter to Yami Sukehiro, captain of the Black Bull squad. Julius then receives a report from one of his subordinates that the Diamond Kingdom is sending Lotus Whomalt and his group to explore the dungeon. While all of his subordinates start to panic, Julius remains calm as he is confident on his Knights' abilities.

After Julius learns that the dungeon exploring mission was a success, he immediately requests a meeting with the Knights that managed to complete it. During the meeting, Julius swiftly examines one of the artefacts that Yuno, a Golden Dawn squad member, managed to retrieve. He is excited when he asks Yuno to activate it, but quickly shows his disappointment when Yuno reveals his inability to control it. Subsequently, Julius decides to refrain from explaining the identity of the artefact while encouraging Yuno to grow along with it.

He then proceeds on examining Asta's artefact where Julius fails to comprehend the writing on the latter's grimoire. When he hold onto the sword that was summoned from the writings, Julius can feel his mana is being absorbed by the sword. He then returns it back to Asta and explains to him that the latter is the only one capable of wielding the sword because of his lack of magical power.

Subsequently, Asta and Yuno ask him about the method to achieve Magic Emperor rank in which Julius reveals the simple truth to them that anyone with great reputation on the public's eyes could become the Magic Emperor. Afterwards, Julius invites the young Knights to attend a War Merits Conferment Ceremony alongside him as he takes them to the ceremonial hall.

After promoting several Knights at the ceremony, Julius invites all of the participants to a banquet that he had prepared, before disappearing a moment later. However, when the Royal Capital is being invaded, Julius is still absent as he asked one of his subordinates to cover for him.

During his absence from the Royal Capital, Julius travels to the White Night Eye's hideout where he lies in wait until the mages whom were attacking the city, return. Once the White Night Eye members enter the hideout, Julius reveals himself and swiftly kills two of the mages whom were trying to attack him. Subsequently, he killed another mage before offering an act of mercy for a mage whom is willing to surrender as he plans to kill the rest of them. When none of the mages accepts his offer, Julius engaged in a fight against two of them before activating a restraining magic spell on all of them. Afterwards, Julius notices Asta's presence and asks the young Knight to observe the him.
