The Survivor of the Massacre[]

Twelve years ago, Reika was an unfortunate victim kidnapped by the Academy's Witchcraft Club, the Rose Cross, to be used as the human sacrifice in order for the girls to summon the devil and gain unfathomable power. However, despite seemingly having sacrificed Reika through stabbing her with a large metal sword, the girls were unable to summon the devil, leading to the group's priestess Nami going mad and slaughtering everyone else in order to complete the ritual. Unknown to Nami, Reika was only mostly dead and was able to regain her strength.

Full of hatred toward the priestess, Reika stabbed Nami to death as the latter tried to appeal to the devil, before succumbing the the injury herself. Recognized by the devil as the sole survived, Reika was offered a contract with the devil to prolong her life, granting her unimaginable power, in exchange for him claiming her soul thirteen years later, which Reika accepted. Reika then proceeded to return back to her normal life as if nothing happened, and began to use her newfound power to gain wealth and glory, fulfilling her every desires. Reika also took the Bible Black spellbook in the Rose Cross's possession and used it to become a powerful witch in her own right, though she failed to notice a one particular spell due to a bloodstain that got on it.

Although Reika initially didn't give much thought about the contract's expiry date at first, she slowly began to fear her upcoming death and started to research for a way to avoid her end of bargain. Reika eventually discovered a secret spell once used by the Knight of Templar to escape the pact: the Soul Succession Ritual, which allows her to switch bodies with another person and letting the devil claiming their soul in place of hers, though the ritual has to be performed on the night of Walpurgis and requires a virgin body.

Knowing the requirements, Reika transferred back to the Academy where she was once a student and worked as the school's doctor as she began to prepare for the ritual and build up her army, using her seductive appearance and alluring personality to lure the students to her side. She also set her eyes on Kurumi Imari, an energetic girl whom she believed to be a perfect vessel, and decided to use the girl's childhood friend and classmate Taki Minase (the game's protagonist) to bring her to him.

The Soul Succession Plan[]

In the Anime[]

Reika's backstory in the anime closely follows the manga, though is also expanded to flesh out her personalities further. In the anime, Reika is an attractive and kind-hearted soul who turned many students' heads, including the antagonistic Student Council President Nami Kozono, though Reika clearly dislikes Nami and tries to reject her advance.
