This section contains spoilers. (Skip Section)

Belial is the true identity of the Red Count ruling over Roppongi. After the Great Cataclysm, he and Nebiros found Alice's body, and taken by her, resurrected the girl. After introducing themselves to her and becoming her "Uncle Red" and "Uncle Black", they resurrected more people to populate Roppongi so that Alice would have many more friends to play with. After the Hero delivers a Hiranya to her, she will request that he die for her, and seeing that he will not, breaks down in tears. The Red Count, seeing this, transforms into his true form as Belial and attacks the party in order to fulfill Alice's wish. As Belial is invincible, the party is forced to retreat and return with the Glancing Pot from Roppongi's lowest floor. He gets sucked into the pot, defeating him, which breaks the illusion placed on Roppongi's undead inhabitants and making Alice fade away. Right after, Yuriko appears and requests that the Hero give her the pot, and should he deny her, she will simply paralyze the party and take it by force anyway.

Later, at the Basilica, after either defeating Lilith should the Hero be on the Law and Neutral routes, or with her simply leaving should he be on the Chaos route, she will drop the Belial Pot, allowing the fusion of the Karyuken.
