Lira

Lira (リラ) is an elf and one of the ten Apostles of Sephirah. He is reincarnated into the body of Rill Boismortier, Captain of the Azure Deer squad.

Appearance
As an elf, Lira is a short boy with shaggy light-colored hair.

While possessing Rill Boismortier, two tattoos appear on Rill's cheeks and his ears become pointed.

Personality
Lira cares strongly for his comrades and despises humans.

Biography
Lira and some of the other elves enjoy a meal the day before Licht and Tetia's marriage. After the wedding, the village is massacred by humans.

Centuries later, Patolli sets the last magic stone in the sephirot, and Rill Boismortier and his team begin glowing. Lira possesses Rill and breaks through the floor with his Four-Headed Lindworm, crashing into the fight between Rhya and Mereoleona Vermillion.

Lira is delighted to see Rhya but Asta interrupts insisting that they are friends. Disgusted by the thought, Lira attacks the three humans with his Lindworm. When Zora Ideale activates all of his traps, temporarily paralyzing and blinding the elves, Lira points out that they can still sense magic, but Zora comments that Asta has no magic to sense. Asta then destroys the Lindworm with Black Meteorite, and Lira takes a glancing blow from the Demon-Slayer Sword, which causes him pain but does not free Rill.

After the rest of Rill's team arrive, Lira and Rhya launch two large magical blasts, which Mereoleona counters after throwing Asta and Zora out of the room. Mereoleona challenges all five of them, so they launch a series of attacks, with Lira creating a giant that is too large for her to burn away. Mereoleona tries to dodge but the punch connects due to Rhya warping the fist to a different angle and Fragil Tormenta weakening the captain's senses. After breaking out of Rossa's Variable Hardness Prison, Mereoleona is ambushed and slashed by Rhya, and the other four rain down more feathers on her. However, she survives and attacks Rhya.

When Mereoleona unleashes her strongest attack, the elves survive with minor injuries at the cost of most of their mana. Seeing that Mereoleona is also still alive, the elves combine their magic for one final attack to finish her off. However, Zora and Asta quadruple the power of the spell and reflect it back at the elves. The spell passes overhead and detonates behind the elves, and the Knights escape.

Later, Ado brings Lira and the other elves in the dungeon into the central room. The dungeon is then steered toward the Clover Kingdom and their revived brethren. Once all of the Apostles of Sephirah assemble atop of the floating dungeon, they summon the Shadow Palace. Afterward, Lira and most of the elves fly through the gate.

Lira sits and practices his painting while waiting for the final magic stone to arrive. When Asta and Mimosa Vermillion enter his room, Lira attacks them with all of his pictures.
