Ancient Guards

Formally known as Vetus Praesido, the Ancient Guards (古代の駐屯地, Kodai no Chuutonchi, "Ancient Garrison") are beings that are told to have existed long before the Six Great Roots were created. They are believed to be the guards of the World Tree and described as having animal- or chimera-like appearances and grow in humongous heights. Though some cultures believe that they are sacred creatures, others believe that they are monsters and some think they do not exist.

There are 72 Ancient Guards around the world, commanded by the ten Kings:
 * Baal
 * Paimon
 * Beleth
 * Purson
 * Asmodeus
 * Vine
 * Balam
 * Zagan
 * Amdusias
 * Belial
