Grace Mirchea Luslec (그레이스 미르치아 루슬렉, Geuraeiseu Mireuchia Luseulaek) is Slayer No. 1 and the living "god" of the most dangerous and secretive criminal group, FUG, in the Tower.[1]
Although FUG’s true motives and goals are not clearly known, it is true without a doubt that they exist in the shadows of the Tower, hiding and corrupting. People call Luslec the "God of the Devils" (악마들의 신, Ahkmahdeuleui Shin) or "Demon King" (마왕, Mahwahng; 魔王).[1]
Even though the FUG has a dangerous status, the influence of Luslec's group can never surpass the Family Heads of the 10 Great Families, as long as they hold contracts with the Tower's Administrators.[1] Nevertheless, Luslec holds a rank that surpasses a few of the Family Heads. This is because he represents the "Absolute Darkness" of the Tower.[1]
History[]
Luslec was one of those that helped the 10 Great Warriors climb the Tower.[1] Garam Zahard stated that he was a warlord serving under the irregular 'V' who was part of Zahard's original 12 companions.[4] No one knows how or why he fell and became the leader of a such a dangerous group; although the author hints that it has something to do with how Zahard became king and the forgotten civil war his master fought against Zahard and the 10 Great Warriors.[5]
In Part II, it is revealed that Twenty-Fifth Baam had joined FUG and adopted his family name, becoming Jyu Viole Grace.

Tower of God: Part 2 - The Workshop Battle[]

Tower of God: Part 3[]
The Nest (Arc)[]
After the failure of Khel Hellam to try to stop the war with the Canine People to defend the Wall of Peaceful Coexistence, as the war heroes were freed and the Canine People suffered a great loss, Sophia Tan stated that regardless of what Luslec may think, he is unable to act directly yet as it would cause the Family Heads to act as well, resulting in a massive war that would be beyond Jyu Viole Grace's power to intervene in and revealed Luslec wants Baam to grow from these challenges. Hwa Ryun later stated that though Luslec will not be able to participate directly, he will ask the Elders if they want to save Ha Jinsung if Baam knows where he is. Hwa Ryun is later on seen contacting Luslec regarding Baam fighting a Ranker to influence the public so that the Elders of FUG will side with him and assured him that the battle will be a victory.
Grace[]
Luslec responds to Ha Jinsung's summon as he wishes to witness the death of a Great Family Head in the arena. Butterfly announces the arrival of both Jinsung and Khel Hellam.[6]
Lo Po Bia's Split[]
Reuniting with Jinsung and Khel Hellam after a long time, Luslec admits he could not resist the opportunity of seeing a family fall. He invites his visitors to share a drink with him which they refuse, which he thinks is a shame.[7]
Heading For The Arena[]
On their own way to the arena, Luslec and his ship decide to pierce through the Po Bidau's 3rd Fleet in order to facilitates Baam's journey to the arena, with Luslec himself ordering Garnak to do so.[8] As Po Bidau Varane is defeated, he questions Garnak's origin, and Luslec responds in unison that they come from the darkness. As they continue onwards they run into a Wolhaiksong ship, with Luslec admitting he is surprised to seem them take action here.[9] As Butterfly approaches the ship, a voice responds from the inside, with Luslec immediately recognizing Urek Mazino's voice.[10]
Powers and Abilities[]
Apparent by his ranking in 15th place as a High Ranker, Luslec is an incredible warrior, even surpassing some of the Family Heads in rank. His prowess with his great black Hook is said to be able to pierce anything.[1]
During his confrontation against Urek Mazino when Wolhaiksong began getting involed in the Lo Po Bia Family/Po Bidau Family war, Luslec showcased his immense power against Mazino.[10] [11]
Spells[]
Luslec notably showcased multiple unusual Spells, and showed that each one was powerful enough to contend against Urek.
- Dark Charge: A transformation-like spell that allows Luslec to gain a stronger form. As shown, this transformation starts with Luslec forming a bright ball of light in his palms, then clapping down his hands to trigger his transformation, causing a gigantic, raging cascade of Shinsu waves to envelop himself and ravage his surroundings. This transformation causes Luslec to be enveloped in a robe of darkness-shadow and drastically enhances his combat abilities.
- Flower Spells: Luslec has been shown to primarily use powerful spells that physically manifest as exotic flowers that produce a number of effects.
- Water Arum Unleashed:
- Unleash Plummed Thistle:
- Unleash Ghost Orchid:
Physical[]
Aside from his spells, Luslec has also showcased immense physical strength, endurance, stamina, reflexes and speed, having been able to fight against Urek Mazino in close combat.
- Piercing Technique: Much like Twenty-Fifth Baam and Ha Jinsung, Luslec also uses the Piercing Technique martial arts and was notably able to use it to push Urek back.[11]
Relationships[]
- Ha Jinsung: Mirchea seems to be quite close to Jinsung, as they are among the few in the higher-ups of FUG who support Baam as a Slayer Candidate, working together to ensure that the other elements of FUG don't have their way with him. This is shown by how Jinsung could confidently promise Luslec would accept his good word of Viole's team remaining a team, which Luslec clearly accepted. Although he could not directly save Jinsung, Luslec was willing to hold a meeting with the Elders and Slayers to ask if they want to help save him.
- Twenty-Fifth Baam: Baam is the son of his masters lover, Arlen. Luslec has Baam adopt his family name and turns him into the Slayer Candidate Jyu Viole Grace. Luslec appears to be the only one apart from Jinsung in the higher-ups of FUG to believe in him and care for him: Luslec supports Jinsung giving Baam freedom, allowing Jinsung to use his authority along with Jinsung's own to ensure the other elements of FUG doesn't have their way with him. Jinsung noted on how Luslec was perplexed with how members of FUG tried to kill Baam, which was noted to put him in a complex situation, indicating he had went out of his way to protect Baam's status despite the difficulties. Sophia Tan also noted how Luslec would not act directly until Baam has grown strong enough as it would attract the Family Heads and begin an all-out war and that Luslec hopes that Baam will grow from facing his challenges. Regardless, Luslec offers his support indirectly to Baam by hosting a meeting with the Elders and Slayers to ask if they want to help Baam save Jinsung.
- Hwa Ryun: Mirchea and Hwa Ryun seems to have a personal relationship, as Hwa Ryun respectfully refers to Mirchea as Lord Mirchea and he seems to trust her capabilities, apparently entrusting her with keeping an eye on Baam and reporting to him directly regarding Baam, as shown by how she tells him about Baam fighting Test Ranker Pan to make the hard-liner Elders and Slayers, especially Sophia, consider helping him and Luslec likewise trusted her to ensure the success of Baam's battle to rescue Jinsung from the Nest.[12]
