The Curses of the Witches of Qlipha have been purified. Elfriede has been freed from DemonicPossession. The world has been saved. So why is there something amiss? As it turns out, the Successor's journey isn't over yet, [[spoiler: as all 10 Curses have converged into Illya, and with the prescence of an angel and the demon lord now inside her,]] Illya has become something even the Pope did not expect: The Witch of God's Curse. [[spoiler: the 11th Witch of Qlipha. Designation: 0.]] But will Illya use this newfound power to save the world? Or will she destroy it instead for the sake of the one person she's come to love?
----
* BreakingOldTrends: Illya's the 1st Witch to have a variant with an Aura type normally reserved for the Witches of Qlipha.
* PimpedOutDress: Illya gets quite the alluring black dress as she gets her new power.
* SealedEvilInACan: Illya ''is'' the can, [[spoiler: becoming a host to the demon lord after the 10 Curses plaguing the world have converged inside her and she used her miracle to survive instead of bringing peace to the world]]. The only way to get it our for good is to enter the underworld and reach the throne.
* SuperMode: Technically, Illya's [Witch of God's Curse] form is this. Though with so much on the line, it's hard to tell if it really benefits her.

The Pope of the Church of Longinus and the first ever Witch of Qlipha, the Witch of Longinus. As the kindhearted Pope, her task was to seal away the demons who seek to destroy the world. However, ''everything'' went wrong when one demon had the bright idea of taking advantage of Elfriede's insecurities and weaknesses to take control of her body, then bring about the end of the world while also setting off the Curse of Longinus by cloaking the Adrian Empire in light. Oh, and she's also responsible for the creation of the other 9 Witches of Qlipha fought during the events of the game.

Oh, and she's also responsible for the creation of the other 9 Witches of Qlipha fought during the events of the game.\\\

The combination of the light of the Pope and the darkness of the demon that possessed her gives Elfriede the power to protect the world and atone for her mistakes. Her 1st active "Angelic Decimation" has Elfriede use the Pope's power of light from the angels to annihilate evil and bring salvation and peace to humanity by increasing her chance to hit by 50% for 2 turns and deals 1 physical attack equal to up to 800% of her ATK to 3 random enemies, which increases by up to 50% of her ATK for each buff that all allies are enhanced with for a maximum of a whopping 1200% of her ATK. On the other hand, Elfriede's 2nd active "Demonic Judgement" has her cast a light that passes on judgement on sins from her once-white wings tainted black with impurity by dealing 1 physical attack equal to up to 1400% of her ATK to up to 3 random enemies, which increases by up to 400% of her ATK for each debuff inflicted on the opposing team for a maximum of 1600% of her ATK.\\\

Elfriede's new determination to protect the world and its people from destruction despite the mess she caused takes on the form of her 1st passive "The Pope's Blessing" which grants her a buff that increases all of her DEF (DEF, PDEF and MDEF) by up to 10% 2 times (4 times from lvl 2 onwards; maximum of 10 times), with the stack count increasing by up to 4 and if she's attacked and takes damage that exceeds 10% of her max. HP, the damage is cut by 40% which activates once per turn. Meanwhile, the demon that took over Elfriede's body has imbued her magic words with new power that manifests in her 2nd passive "Prayer for Salvation", which increases the chance to inflict a debuff of everyone in the party aside from Elfriede herself by up to 30% for up to 4 turns which activates once every 4 turns at the start of the turn.\\\

Once Elfriede takes up her Unique Weapon "Lance of Longinus" again, "Angelic Decimation"'s range increases to 5 random enemies, "The Pope's Blessing" increases the damage cut to 90% and "Demonic Judgement"'s physical damage is increased to 1600% of her ATK (a staggering 2400% of her ATK max).\\\

Elfriede serves as the focal character of the ''[=MementoMori=]'''s 1st Anniversary, alongside Illya's [The Witch of God's Curse] variant.

* HiddenAgendaVillain: It's never made clear what she's planning whenever she makes an appearance in the Witches' various stories. For one, she's the head of the Church of Longinus that is constantly conducting witch hunts, [[BoomerangBigot despite being a Witch herself and not raising a hand against it]], and any morality she has must be suffering a dearth given that she mind-controlled Florence into cutting down her own best friend, Fortina. That's not even getting into being responsible for [[BreakTheCutie creating some of the Witches of Qlipha]]. And yet, Illya had nothing but nice things to say about her; the Pope encouraged the [[DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife girl when she was in despair]], and charged Illya with finding the Successor and giving him the Staff of Tikkun, potentially making him and the Witches [[CreateYourOwnHero become the ultimate downfall of the Church]].

Moreover, Loki's Memories show that when Elfriede was just a chief minister, Loki saw her as a good-willed person who sought the fortune-teller out to help the Church's followers pursue better lives, but after her ascendance to Pope, her harshness and command to hunt Witches made her like a different person.

The former Captain of the Kingdom of Galia's Witch Corps who ended up losing her entire unit to her own government's schemes. Furious over this betrayal, she becomes the 2nd Witch of Qlipha, the Witch of Lost Souls, and has taken over Galia's capital with the life-stealing specters who resemble former members of the Witch Corps if one risks their life to take a closer look.\\\

Commanding her army of specters that was once her comrades in the Witch Corps, Armstrong boasts high ATK and chances to land CriticalHit after Critical Hit. Her 1st active "Blitzkrieg Operation" has her send her ghostly army towards the enemy, dealing 1 physical attack equal to up to 600% of her ATK to the 2 enemies with the highest ATK and post-upgrade reactivates if said targets survive the attack. Her 2nd active "Volley Fire" has the specters initiate volley fire that deals up to 8 physical attacks equal to 250% of her ATK to random enemies, with the damage from said attack being multiplied by up to 2 if a target has remaining HP of 50% or higher and starting from level 2 is guaranteed to hit.\\\

According to Armstrong, "If you want peace, prepare for war". Based on this saying, her 1st passive "Parabellum" increases her critical hit damage by 20% and post-upgrade at the start of the turn increases the chance of landing a critical hit of herself and the ally with the highest SPD by up to 40% for 2 turns once every 4 turns. And with the masterful tactics that are the signature of the North's strongest military unit, Armstrong's 2nd passive "Elastic Defense" cuts attacks that Armstrong takes by up to 50% and for every attack she deals that's a critical hit, the potency of damage cutting decreases by 2% (which will not go further than 10%) and starting from level 2 also increases her ATK by 2% each time (up to 20%).\\\

Upon being reissued with her Unique Weapon "M1805 Magic Blitzer", "Blitzkrieg Operation"'s targets is increased to 3, "Elastic Defense" further cuts the damage from enemy attacks to 60% and the potency of damage cutting will not go lower than 40% with her ATK increase raised to 4% and "Volley Fire"'s physical damage is increased to 300% of Armstrong's ATK.
