The ten commandmen

The Ten Commandments「十戒, Jikkai」 are an extremely powerful group of ten elite warriors who are the strongest amongst the Demon Clan. Handpicked by the Demon King himself, each member possesses a Commandment「戒禁, Kaigon」, a unique power gifted to them by the Demon King, which delivers a unique curse to whomever breaks a rule specific to each member. The Ten Commandments were formed when the Demon King had put the Demon Realm under his control and planned to give half of his power to his servants, which would allow him to conquer all of existence at once. However, in order not to give too much power to a single individual and put his position at risk, he divided half of his power into ten fragments and handed them to ten of his elite warriors in the form of Commandments.
