Yukina Freesis is a famous writer of the Freesis family. Writing stories since her youth, she published numerous classics during her lifetime. Among her most popular titles is "Daughter of Evil", written after investigating Princess Riliane and the Seven Deadly Sins.

Early Life
Born in EC 491, Yukino moved into the Sfarz Mansion in Aceid, Elphegort while very young. Early on, he showed a love for reading and writing, which earned the attention of his father, Keela. Buying him Rollam bird feather pens, the child began writing his own stories or sometimes had the servants do so instead for him. Around EC 497, his mother read the story of Vampire Cronus to Yukino, scaring the child. Despite knowing it was a work of fiction, the six year old was unable to sleep that night. In EC 499, he came under the care of Albin and grew attached to his unique appearance and ability to serve his needs. When Keela returned from Prince Rintoine's birthday party, Yukino ran straight into her, excited to hear she came back. Expressing his disappointment she didn't come see him first, Keela promised she would read him a story to make up for it. Months later, Yukino had woken up during one of his mother's parties and yelled at Albin for running in the halls.

During the Green Hunting, Yukino weeped when she said goodbye to Albin while the Netsuma man comforted him and promised to make him a cream cake when they saw each other again. Like the rest of his family, Yukino was imprisoned at the Lucifenian Royal Palace and was released months later, staying at Koopa's mansion. A few days later, Yukino met Germanus Avadonia and the one-eyed Abbey as they arranged to meet with his mother. Albin later arrived and Yukino immediately clung to his leg in excitement. Led into another room, he watched silently with his father, Mikino, as Albin broke down in tears and asked if he was okay. On the day of Albin's departure, Yukino cried and gave him a book with all his stories he had written, up till that point.

Life in Marlon
During the Lucifenian Revolution, Yukino and his family fled after the area was liberated by the Resistance and moved into the Sfarz mansion in the Kingdom of Marlon. Sometime after, the family was visited by Elluki Clockworker and Gumillio. Living with them for several months, Yukino was often accompanied by Gumillio and played with. At some point, he was lectured by him for not using honorifics. Sometime after they left, Yukino was desperately writing when his mother asked about it. He responded he was writing a snake and frog story and later was confused by his mother's laughter while reading a letter. After finishing his story, he had Keela read it and told her he would write about The Son of Evil next, captivated by the recent Revolution against Rintoine's reign.In EC 501, Yukino heard their names again when Princess Kyla added them to the Witch Hunt. As time passed, Yukino wrote numerous books that his mother published, growing in fame as a novelist across Evillious. Due to his continued interest in the revolution, Yukino studied the event closely and its people involved.

Journey Abroad
Around EC 504, Yukino read the historical account of Wilhelmina Jacqueline and became interested in his writings about the "Seven Deadly Sins" and those said to be possessed by them. Finding the name "Elluki Clockworker" included in the century-old text, Yukino became interested in researching the Sins and understanding exactly what happened with The Son of Evil and Kyla's current regime. Although opposed by his family to leave, Yukino snuck away from home and voyaged to Divine Levianta. While in the snowy northern country, he met a teenager who related the tales of Kronos Conchita being possessed by a glass vessel of sin that made him into an "Evil Food Eater" and, skeptical the vessels even existed, didn't believe the tale. He later embarked towards the neighboring Asmodean, but the border guards refused to let him cross until he bribed them. Arriving in Asmodean, he investigated the Venomania Mansion ruins in Lasaland but found nothing. At some point, he met a group of mercenaries there and they instructed him in proper fencing and self-defense. Yukino continued on his journey and crossed over to Lucifenia. Restricted in many of his actions due to being a foreigner, the young writer decided to leave for the Beelzenian Empire.

Star-Shaped Fortress
After Yukino travelled to Retasan Fortress, he checked in at the Half Moon Pavillion and stayed there for three days before heading towards the fortress' for Beelzenia. While walking through the city streets, her hat flew in the wind and rushed to pick it up when a blond-headed soldier did so for him and he thanked him before running off again. At first, he was prevented from entering Beelzenia but the fortress commander, Rintoine Mouchet, helped Yukino pass through the entrance. Stopped at the front gate, one of the two guards told him he wasn't allowed and, pressing him for why, was stated it was military problems. Told he wasn't allowed to know the details, he told the arrogant soldier that Marlon must have had a hard time controlling guards like him. Faced with the guard's outburst, the other guard approached him and kindly apologized, explaining it was classified. Placing a gold coin in his hand, he asked if there really was no way to pass but the guard returned the bribe, saying Commander Mouchet would kill him if the "demon" officer knew he accepted it. Giving up, Yukino returned to the hotel.

After explaining he already paid the bill, the owner returned her identification papers and Yukino headed to the bar. Paying the waiter two coins for a white Rollam bird meal, Yukino spied the blond-haired soldier from earlier and thanked her again. The writer joined the soldier and he spoke about his experience at Retasan when his meal arrived. Asked about why he went toward the gates, Yukino explained his situation and the soldier elaborated on the political friction between Marlon's Lucifenia and Beelzenia. When the blond man mentioned higher-ups saying Beelzenia was harboring criminals, Yukino pressed her to know more but she said it was classified and said it was likely war would break out, hence why traffic to and from Beelzenia was limited. Angered that such a small issues was halting his journey, he punched the table and cursed that it was an excuse for them to expand their territory. Realizing his blunder, he was surprised when the soldier laughed and agreed with him.

Grateful, he explained how poorly he was treated at the gate and criticized Commander Mouchet for being so awful. Remembering his manners, Yukino asked for the soldier's name and he said he was called "Li". The child then ranted how Li must have suffered under Mouchet's cruelty the guards mentioned and that sensible people like him should be leading them instead. At that moment, a soldier entered to discuss military matters with Li and addressed her as "Commander Mouchet" before leaving. As the revelation came over her, Yukino aksed for Li's full name and, when he stated it was "Rintoine Mouchet", the child immediately apologized but the commander encouraged him to eat before the food grew cold.

Over the course of five days, Yukino was constantly spending his time with Commander Mouchet while walking through the streets, learning about his father, Gaston, and character. On the fifth day, Rintoine promised to help Yukina get to Beelzenia. While window shopping later on, Rintoine asked if he needed a new pair of shoes and Yukino noted the commander's good mood. Brushing him off, Rintoine said they should focus on their goal and asked why he wanted to go to the Red Country. Yukino responded that she wished to visit the ancient city there, though not an enthusiast. Coming up with a plan, Yukino tried posing a question and Rintoine asked if he had wanted another pair of shoes. Brushing aside he would like them but could still use his old one, he inquired if they could send a messenger to Beelzenia. The army commander asked why due to the danger and he explained his relation to Keela and how they could use his Sfarz name as weight and the surprised Rintoine agreed, sending out the messenger that day.

Eighteen days later, Yukino awoke to the sound of Rintoine shouting outside and the soldier quickly stomped into his room, demanding he get dressed. The writer obeyed and asked why Li wanted his suitcase and Mouchet replied Yukino was heading abroad. On their way towards the gate, Li explained that his name didn't cover it but that his acquaintance to Keela pushed the plan's success. At the gates, Yukino watched as Rintoine hurriedly barked orders for the gates to be opened. Curious, Yukino asked why he was hurrying him out and the commander explained that Princess Kyla ordered troops to arrive that afternoon and it was difficult to get his visa approved. Yukino thanked him again and Li told her to follow the road to Rockbane and that, if he was stopped, she should show the guard her permit, given the paper. Excited that he was heading to "Vampire Cronus'" area, Yukino accepted Li's advice to stay alive and be wary of impending war and headed out into Beelzenia.
