Biography
As kids Nozeru and Fuegoreon Vermilion grow up together and forge a rivalry.

At the entrance exam, Nozeru, along with the rest of the magic knight captains, observe and judge on whom they may take into their squad. After the exams, when Yuno appears in front of them, all of the captains, including Nozeru, want him and raise their hands, but Yuno decides to join the Golden Dawn.

Much later, at a decoration ceremony with the Magic Emperor, Nozeru is present as captain of Silver Eagle, along with Nebra and Solido, who are being promoted. As Noelle's own siblings are heartily humiliating their sister, Nozeru goes as far as trying to banish her from the venue. Seeing it happens in front of his eyes, Asta quickly grabs Noelle's arm as he tries to prevent her from leaving. The former then climbs on top of one of the tables and makes his declaration to surpass all of them. A fight arises and eventually Asta is able to hold against Solido. Seeing the embarrassing actions from his younger brother, Nozeru steps in as he releases his Magic Power. Fortunately, the captain of the Crimson Lion squad, Fuegoreon Vermilion, interferes as he points out the House Silva's shameless act of attacking a boy. Fuegoreon's comments are not received well by Nozeru as the latter gives him a condescending remark which leads to a brief confrontation between the captains.

When the city is attacked, the Magic Knights spread out to take care of the attackers. Once they defeat the enemies, a spatial magic is used and all are teleported far away from the city. Using combined efforts, they manage to get back rather quickly, and Nozeru uses his Silver Rain on the enemies but is surprised when the enemy uses a dark magic item to absorb the properties of his attack.

As the enemies leave, they take Asta with them, and Noelle immediately proposes a rescue mission for her squadmate. However, the other Knights immediately reject it with Nozeru deciding to focus the resources on establishing the Royal Capital's defenses. Solido starts making fun of Fuegoreon's loss, but Nozeru interrupts him stating that they are even less than him for not even being present at the fight. Later when Nozeru is leaving, he is angry at himself for letting Fuegoreon on the verge of dying. As he remembers his past with him, he states that he will find the one who did this to Fuegoreon and bury him himself.

Nozeru later shows up with two other captains, saving Yami from Liar, Vetto, and Fana's attacks. After Yami complains about their arrival, Nozeru comments on his condition. Telling Yami to keep himself nice and clean for the day he may hang him, calling him a foreigner - followed by Yami insulting him in return.

Nozeru attacks Licht but Fana blocks the Silver Spear. As he squares off against Fana and Salamander, he creates multiple spears and boasts about the strength of his mercury, having trained against Fuegoreon's Fire Magic. Like the others Nozeru is surprised when Asta makes it through the battlefield unscathed and lands a hit on Licht. When Licht's magic begins overflowing because Asta's sword removed the seal, the Third Eye surround and seal their leader, surprising Nozeru with the feat.

Nozeru attends a meeting of the Magic Knights captains. He complains about Jack and Yami's bickering. Lil Bowamoltie mentions the absence of Fuegoreon and the table goes silent, but when she tries imitating the Crimson Lion captain, Nozeru and Jack threaten her. After William Vangeance's late arrival, Nozeru questions why he was also absent from the decoration ceremony. They proceed to the dungeon and wait to hear the name of the traitor, as revealed by Georg and Catherine.
