Zart uses his magic offensively by teleporting his opponents into the sky; as Flight magic has not been learned by humans of the era yet, this proves fatal unless they have extremely precise mana control.

| Whirlwind attack demon | |
| A demon working with the Divine Revolte. She keeps her hair tied in five sections and wears a blindfold. She wields a blade and specializes in the Whirlwind Attack Spell: Medrozobalt, which causes blasts of wind to slice at an opponent based on where she slices. The attack can be directed at the ground, which creates a rift in the earth in the direction of the opponent. She fights Methode, who notes that her opponent has a very steady attacking style. She has perfect defense even when on the offense and a solid foundation that Methode cannot find any openings in. She notices that Methode's fighting style is like that of a clan that used to specialize in fighting demons in the Northern Plateau and states that they can have a good fight. However, she does not notice until too late that Methode is fighting to buy time, and lacks any killing intent. She is defeated by a long range Zoltraak from Fern once Methode dispels her partner's fog.
