Nerobasta「ネロバスタ」 is a member of the Goddess Clan.
Appearance
Nerobasta is a voluptuous woman with pink hair, large breasts and angelic wings. She is clothed in a white, figure-hugging dress and wears a pair of large gauntlets over her hands.[1] When she first manifests from within Denzel's sword, she appears to be as large as a giant, but her true size of her physical body is closer to that of a human.
Personality
During her possession of Denzel, Nerobasta shows a strong hatred for the Demon Clan, not caring for humanity, showing no empathy for Denzel's sacrifice to summon her and blamed the humans for breaking the seals on the Demons. Nerobasta is rather cowardly in nature, as after her attacks didn't effect Derieri she pathetically begging the demon to spare her life before being killed by the Commandment. She even started to direct the blame of the Purity's anger towards her superiors as she was ordered to kill the demon women and children hostages despite the fact that she holds some of the fault for doing it anyways.
She is also prideful and somewhat condescending as she demanded the humans who entered Stigma's base to kneel in reverence before the presence of her superior, Ludoshel. Overall Nerobasta is a selfish individual and cares only for herself and her reputation. This is shown as during Melascula and Gowther's infiltration of Stigma's headquarters, she called all the members of Stigma to kill them while disregarding the potential risk to themselves. During the humans' elimination of Stigma when none of the races entered the Light of Grace, Nerobasta became more concerned with her own standing in the Goddess Clan and Ludoshel's view rather than if the Stigma members were alright or not.
History
3,000 years ago
Not much is known about Nerobasta's past but she was around during the Ancient War when the Goddess Clan broke the pact with the Demon Clan and the massacre of innocent demon civilians by her superiors' orders, which earned Derieri's justifiable hatred for the Goddesses due to losing her own sister in said massacre.
At some point, Nerobasta was sealed within the sword by unknown means and is held in possession of Denzel ever since as a secret weapon against the Demon Clan if they ever return eventually.

As a last ditch effort to stop the Ten Commandments, Denzel summons Nerobasta by offering his body to be Nerobasta's vessel which she inhabited.[4] As she realizes the return of the demon clan, she falsely accuses the human clan of releasing the seal provided by the Goddess Clan and refuses to fight and flies upwards, annihilating two demons on her way. She is then confronted by Derieri, whom Nerobasta recognizes as the Purity of the Ten Commandments. Confident in her abilities, Nerobasta uses Ark on her opponent, but in the end is no threat to the demon as Derieri defeats her with only one slice of her hand, surrounded with darkness.
