Great Demon Lord Loyce Hal, also known as Inner Shadow Empire, is the legendary Demon King, easily standing as one of the strongest characters in Darwin's Great Akuma Universe, and potentially the multiverse. Considered by many as the most powerful SS+ Rated Inner Shadow of the infamous Black Legion Organization, Hal's tremendous reputation is succeeded by his feats. His followers are extremely powerful and numerous, from conquering thousands upon thousands of universes and creating countless more realities.

He is one of the major antagonists in Darwin's Great Akuma Universe. As of Beyond the Gods, Loyce is the greatest threat, seconded to Vala the Spirit of Hope.

Powers and Abilities

Loyce is among one of the undisputed, strongest threats to the entirety of the Great Akuma Reality Continuity. In terms of intellect and power, Loyce has repeatedly proved himself to be unparalleled to the point where even indirect intervention by the Demon Lord is capable of completely turning the tide of a confrontation. Loyce's might is so tremendous that many of his followers and subordinates were either forced to submit or voluntarily surrendered; such subordinates included extremely powerful Demon Lords themselves, or beings with power that rivaled or surpassed such a ranking. When Inner Shadows John Crassman and Jason Hellion learned of Aaron Hope's declaration to challenge Loyce, both Inner Shadows personally confronted the Outer Shadow, outright telling Hope that he stood no chance against Loyce. The Inner Shadows even went as far as to reveal that aside from Hakah, Loyce was in a class of his own and could easily singlehandedly defeat the rest of the Inner Shadows in the Black Legion.

Ultimate Primordial Demon Physiology: As the only Primordial Demon to reach the final evolution stage of Ultimate Primordial, Loyce exhibits immense and borderline unparalleled power that has only ever been eclipsed by beings such as The Great Akuma and her trusted successors, offspring, and descendants. Loyce is also the strongest Primordial demon in history; his power even surpasses that of Supreme Primordial Sena Ark, the first Primordial and mother of all Primordial demons.

• Tremendous Physical Strength: Loyce has demonstrated nearly unmatched and immense levels physical strength. A single punch from Loyce was enough to completely disperse and nullify the gravitational effects of Kapstan 667, a supermassive black hole billions of times the size of the Sun. Loyce's strength was to the point where he was able to deflect the strikes of Shosuke "The Devil Monk" Shiki's One Strike Kill style with only a finger, with little to no effort. Even with the combined efforts of The Skyworld pooling their energy into Archangel Erafil, Loyce was able to defeat the Demon Lord in four strikes while holding back.
• Unmatched Speed: Loyce is capable of performing unbelievable feats of speed, easily outpacing speedsters, and exceeding the speed of light by several orders of magnitude. When in battle, Yeling described Loyce as "moving so fast that he was practically invisible. By the time he had slowed down, it would be too late. There would be no way someone could react to his attacks no matter how prepared or sloppily he had executed them."
• Immortality and Invulnerability: Loyce's durability has been described as nigh unparalleled. Capable of withstanding the combined magical unison of the galaxy's strongest mages and warriors during his crusade to conquer the world of Demon Lord Leon Valentine, Loyce's immense durability is layered onto his near-infinite regeneration. Due to the combined effects of invulnerability and regeneration, Loyce is considered practically immortal to almost all opponents he has faced.
• Tremendous Magical Power: Loyce possesses an extraordinarily high amount of magic power, so monumental, that even with fellow SS+ Rated Inner Shadow Jun Gasket using Stage Five Hachi, is incapable of quantifying. The sheer aura of Loyce's magical power, even when suppressed, is considered so overwhelming that lesser creatures such as Shadow Minions, and even ordinary human beings, suffer a sensation of "immense pressure from within their bodies". At higher levels of combat power, Loyce is capable of passively disintegrating entire planets and civilizations just from his aura alone, which he uses to intimidate and force servitude on those who deny their allegiance, particularly lesser Demon Lords.

Alogigenesis - The Comedy of Divinity: An extremely powerful and vast esoteric ability that enables Loyce to manipulate, create, and destroy realities, narratives, plot armor, and even the plot of storylines depending on his frame of the narrative. It is unknown how Loyce obtained his power, but it was assumed that the power to warp reality was inherent to the final stage of evolution for a Primordial. This was the power that gave Loyce his terrifying reputation even amongst fellow esoterics due to his power to skillfully bend and shape the rules of the world around him in his favor. Loyce's mastery over manipulating reality was so skilled, that he had denoted the ability a "Divine Comedy", as he believed his mastery over a power so inconceivable and incomparable was "comical to divine proportions". Having defeated many reality-warping entities during his conquest, Loyce was considered the "King of the Esoterics". Using Divine Comedy, Loyce has been able to:

• Neutralize the concept of a character's narrative, such as eliminating Apex Primordial Kon the Worldkiller's Absolute Dominion, which was a power that provided him with Infinite Strength.
• Dethrone Queen Celene, the goddess of her universe by destroying her concept of being the "strongest entity to exist no matter any conditions".
• Create thousands upon thousands of universes while simultaneously destroying the same number of realities from a single thought.
• Force Tyrannon the Conquerer to experience fear.
• Create and destroy time.
• Eliminate the concept of fate itself, changing the destiny of Hana Alzeron, who was fated to become the wife of Archdemon Jemiel.
• Warp reality to whatever he wishes, regardless of reason.
• Transcend narratives and realities.
• Outsmart countless narrative and reality-bending individuals in a battle of "reason" and "law bending".
• Defeat Stage Four Susanoo Hakah Mah and Stage Four Hinokami Yeling Mah simultaneously.
• Reset Vicki Harriet's moral compass.
• Destroy and recreate Millennium City hundreds of times over without anyone realizing.
• Defeat Kigatilik with a single ice-based spell, bypassing Kigatilik's inherent concept of ice resistance.
• Freeze the supergiant blue star, Rigel.
• Defeat Lucifer in his own domain.
• Harm his own creator/author, by inflicting several wounds and scratches which manifested themselves overnight on the author's body in a higher narrative.
• Overwhelm Shosuke Shiki and Aaron Hope by willing them to be petrified by just his name alone.
• Contain and weaponize anti-narratives, such as Supreme Primordial Aran Sol.
• Eliminate the effects of Aaron's signature Black Bullets

Genius Level Intellect and Combat Knowledge: As a Primordial, Loyce belongs to a race of beings who were the first known entities to display intelligence in the history of the universe. According to Kon Larum, it was the Primordials who suggested the offshoot of intelligence to other organisms, and thus from them came mankind, a race of beings who displayed evolving intelligence. Loyce's intelligence has been shown to be one of the most dangerous qualities that cemented his position as an Ultimate Divine Demon Lord, as well as his knowledge of warfare, nation-building, strategy, cunningness, and trickery. Even amongst other Primordials, Loyce had displayed an intellect that was significantly higher than his peers due to his affirmation to continuously acquire knowledge through omnicidal conquests in the multiverse. Some examples of Loyce's feats include:

• Outsmarting SS+ Rated Jun Gasket in tactical warfare, using only forty thousand foot soldiers to defeat Gasket's Machine Kingdom of seventy trillion.
• Defeating SSS Rated Hakah Mah by psychologically influencing her power using her brother, Yeling.
• Inventing forty-seven new forms of magic using a single runic transcript, an accomplishment that could not be achieved in the history of several millennia by the top mages of Leon Valentine's world.
• Wield celestial magic, despite being a Primordial Demon, by identifying and adjusting the details of his rune summoning, patterns that differ only by several micrometers.
• Completely assess the fighting style, strengths, weaknesses, and combat profile, and deduce the past, present, and future of an enemy army amounting to eight nine million soldiers, for each and every single soldier through a single glance.
• Best Aaron Hope in a battle of wits and gunplay, despite the latter being infamously known for being the greatest gunman in the entirety of the Black Legion easily.
• Outsmart and defeat Ra'vin the Tribunal, the vast cosmic entity and embodiment of the multiverse, without using Alogigenesis and only relying on his Primordial physical abilities.

Magecraft: Due to Loyce's massive mana reserves and his ingenuity, the magnitude of the Demon Lord's magical spells is tremendous. Even the most primitive of spells have been described by Loyce's victims to be overwhelming, to the point where they were often mistaken as legendary class spells.

• 100% Mana Efficiency: Historically, the conversion of a mage's mana to energy, be it kinetic, heat, or potential, was at most 46% efficient due to losses from a variety of factors including chant inefficiency, runic inefficiency, and biological spell execution losses. However, Loyce invented a new way of performing spells, by converting the mana flowing within his body to the primitive energy of the spell, allowing the primitive energy to distribute into its subsequent child forms that made up the spell's energy profile. Doing so allowed Loyce to shatter all understanding of how spells were performed, and for the first time, allow spells to be executed at 100% efficiency. Because of this, the scale of his spells was considered significantly higher than other mages, even when using only a fraction of his mana.
• Elite Spell Mastery: Loyce demonstrated expert to grandmaster level mastery of all forms of magecraft, performing all spells and their child spells flawlessly and at absurd magnitudes. A single [Flare Burst], thought to be an elementary-level spell, was comparable to the size of a planetary star. An [Aqua Shot] performed by Loyce was to the level of a tsunami. This was likely due to the fact that Loyce possessed both tremendous mana reserves, but also his ability to call upon these spells at an impossible 100% efficiency.
  • Supercosmic Level Magic: A level of magic that was thought to be impossible, as the upper threshold of magic used by its practitioners was Cosmic Magic, Loyce's seemingly infinite mana reserves meant he was capable of calling upon a level of magic even further Cosmic Magic, which later coined the term "Supercosmic". Loyce was the first to weaponize magic to this level and is both the pioneer and only known user of Supercosmic Magic. An example of this level of magic is Loyce's version of Supercosmic Aspectum, which allows him to access the complete profile of anything he encounters through any of his senses. This includes their weaknesses, strengths, habits, and fighting styles.
• Yvvir - The Legendary Spell of Resurrection: A taboo branch in magecraft that involved resurrecting the dead. Thought to be a myth, until Loyce resurrected a criminal that he had slaughtered who was caught defiling the Church of Babel, which Loyce became fond of. Loyce was capable of calling [Yvvir] multiple times on the same target, as shown when Loyce continuously slaughtered and resurrected the same criminal over and over again in a rage after discovering that the criminal had been assaulting the women and children of the church.
• Raava - The Legendary Spell of Fate Manipulation: A forbidden and extremely complex branch in magecraft involving traveling within the time stream and undoing the inevitabilities of an individual or select region of a universe's future. [Raava] has only been used by two individuals in history. The first time [Raava] was called was when a renowned grandmaster mage known as Emiol called upon the spell to undo his son's death after traveling back in time. Though successful, Emiol was then enslaved for eternity to serve as a Time Keeper by Ra'vin Da Saar, a child branch of Ra'vin the Tribunal. When [Raava] was called for the second time in history by Loyce to save the fate of the Babel Church, Emiol was forced by Da Saar to execute Loyce but was defeated instantly. Loyce then used Alogigenesis to completely eliminate the concept of needing to preserve the stream of fate while keeping the timeline intact, then proceeded to delete Ra'vin Da Saar from existence, explaining that by using Divine Comedy, a Time Keeper was no longer required as it was now part of the narrative that "the timeline remains intact no matter what". Since then, Loyce has been able to call upon Raava whenever needed.
• Origin Magic Ard Metria - The Affirmation of Self: Origin Magic is a branch of magecraft that was invented by Loyce solely for the purpose of retaining his sense of self, should any attempt of possession be made. This discovery of magic was first observed by Rya the Celestial, who, in a desperate attempt to protect her master, Kon the Worldkiller, attempted to possess Loyce's origin soul and prevent him from using 80% of his Ultimate Primordial abilities and his Alogigenesis, to allow Kon to fight on par with the superior Primordial Demon. Upon attempting to possess Loyce, Rya was struck by [Ard Metria], which was powerful enough to fully incapacitate the Great Celestial and send her comatose for seven months.
  • Logic Bending Origin Magic - Absolute Self: Though powerful, it is possible for [Ard Metria] to be bypassed by beings of incredible magical prowess, as shown when Rya attempts to possess Loyce once more but uses the full power of her Great Celestial abilities. If by chance, [Ard Metria] is bypassed, Loyce is capable of enhancing the spell even further by removing such limitations using Alogigenesis, to evolve the spell into a Self Affirmation that is absolute, meaning by the narrative of the character and storyline, it is impossible for Loyce to be possessed. To break past [Absolute Self] one must bypass the narrative, by engaging in a battle of reason on a higher level of narrative. An extension behind [Absolute Self] is that by passively retaining this spell, Loyce's Alogigenesis ability cannot be replicated, as it is a part of his sense of self. This passive ability also appears to be immune to anti-magic, as shown when Aaron Hope attempted to use his [Black Bullet Barrage] on Loyce to no effect.

Weaknesses

Nihilism and Desire for Mortality: Loyce has repeatedly stated that he does not find satisfaction in his power. And due to his immortality, he cannot be killed even if defeated. This degree of nihilism was such to the point where Loyce contemplated repeatedly battling and defying Lord Ginga and Hakah Mah in hopes of being destroyed for good, though the effort only left him defeated and on the brink of death, but "not quite there". A large part behind Hal's defection from his responsibilities as an Inner Shadow to provoke Hakah using Yeling has been for this reason. Despite this level of nihilism, Loyce has at times, hesitated in finding ways to end his existence due to his subordinates, with whom he has taken a mentoring role.

The Great Akuma and Lord Ginga: Despite possessing the immense reality-warping power of Alogigenesis, Loyce has admitted that he is incapable of defeating neither the Akuma nor Ginga, due to the two being capable of neutralizing and withstanding Loyce's Alogigensis reality warping and narrative bending attacks. This passive ability also extends to the children of the Akuma, such as Mahyako, Avalon, and their descendants, including Diana Avarice, Hakah Mah and Yeling Mah. Due to being immune to Alogigenesis, Loyce must resort to his Ultimate Primordial abilities, though despite the handicap, has proven to be still an extremely difficult and borderline impossible opponent to put down.
