[[WMG:The Guardian of Cutthroat Valley's Child]]
[[AndroclesLion The Child]] will end up forming a pact with Iruma and become a second familiar to the boy. It will also grow in size to be comparable to its mother and be a mount for Iruma and his friends to ride on. It could even be the pact is made already by the gifting of blood from Iruma that healed the creature.

[[WMG:March and Oswell are newer highers than they appear]]
While they are more seasoned teachers than Robin, in the post-Heartbreaker Competition chapters they reveal they are stuck with writing apology letters for some of the things that happened in the Competition. March notes they are at the bottom of the ladder once more. So, while they are more senior than Robin, it is likely they are just a year ahead of him as teachers as they have the authority to make him do their paperwork too, but cannot foist it on anyone else.

But Iruma ''is'' human, that too is undeniable, and Arikled also has his own hints towards a connection with Delkira, such as not wanting anyone but Iruma to know he exists, there being no records of the Ring possessing any sentient spirit in it, and his name being "Delkira" spelled backwards. So how can they ''both'' be connected to Delkira is one is a human from another world, and the other a spirit tied to a Ring that is said to belong to the prophesized new Demon King?

[[WMG: Iruma is, while not Delkira's reincarnation, a ''piece'' of Delkira]]
Many have already noted the similarities between Iruma and Delkira, particularly Iruma's Evil Cycle and Delkira's own personality, best shown via the quote Sullivan said at the Deviculum, which sounds along the lines of something Iruma would say in his Evil Cycle, albeit harsher.
->'''Delkira:''' The flowers bloom bright, and living things battle for survival. Thunder booms and rain pours. The netherworld is beautiful. And yet, in its current state, it is also very boring. Make the flowers fight, and the living things bloom. Swallow up the thunder and the rain, with ideas that outwit both strength and knowledge. Ally yourself with change. ''A Demon must be greedy.''
And it is undeniable that, even outside of things that could be explained away by Arikled, that Iruma has an overall energy that reminds others of Delkira. Whether it be his mana, which can't be explained by Arikled due to Iruma demonstrating possession of it even when ''not'' using the Ring of Gluttony, and Poro Amduscias, someone who was very close to Delkira, notes the similarities between the two, to the point they accuse Sullivan of trying to replace Delkira with Iruma.
But Iruma ''is'' human, that too is undeniable, and Arikled also has his own hints towards a connection with Delkira, such as not wanting anyone but Iruma to know he exists, there being no records of the Ring possessing any sentient spirit in it, and his name being "Delkira" spelled backwards. So how can they ''both'' be connected to Delkira is one is a human from another world, and the other a spirit tied to a Ring that is said to belong to the prophesized new Demon King?
Simple. They're ''both'' {{pieces of|God}} Delkira. Neither of them are the whole of Delkira, but rather a LiteralSplitPersonality of sorts. Delkira was no doubt a genuine demon, but based on Sullivan's testimony, could be a genuine asshole. Iruma meanwhile is one of the sweetest individuals you could ever meet. So how could someone like Iruma be born from someone like Delkira?
Well, during the Deviculum, we are given further info on the Deities, the higher beings who effectively govern the Netherworld and have a non-aggression pact with the Demons. One of their number, Thoth, was the one responsible for protecting the Legendary Seed, and when Iruma and Lied grew it, it played a message ''left by Delkira'', meaning Delkira has some ties to the Deities, and while it's played off as being a prerecorded message, Delkira specifically says, to Iruma only, "Is it you?", with the energy released resonating with Iruma. And we know Sullivan decided to adopt Iruma for a reason and has a plan, something Opera calls out when Iruma is first brought to the Netherworld, with the Thirteen's Dinner arc having him subtly steer Iruma in the direction of becoming the Demon King. And based on Wett of the Six Finger's phrasing, the belief is that Delkira isn't just missing, but ''dead''. How does this all tie together?
Imagine, for a second, Delkira, being a proponent of Demons continuing to evolve, came to see Demonkind as stagnating. Finding a world like that boring, he figured Demonkind needed a new element to evolve, ''humanity'', so he went to the Deities and made a plan. The Deities would split him into two pieces, one to remain in the Demon World, one to be sent to the Human World. The piece sent to the Human World would merge with a pure-hearted soul of a newborn human infant, while the piece in the Demon World would be crafted into the Ring of Gluttony. When the human was of age, Sullivan would be entrusted with finding the child and bringing them back to the Netherworld, and manipulate events so that the child would obtain the Ring of Gluttony. With both pieces together, this human child would become Delkira ''reborn'', better though due to possessing humanity now. As a means of preparing the Netherworld for this though, a "prophecy" was written out, when it was really just a layout of what Delkira wanted the new human to become, while the Legendary Seed would be used as a way to verify that the child was a piece of Delkira. Only would this new being be able to bring the Netherworld to a new age, an evolution for Demonkind.
As such, the ultimate resolution of this will be Iruma and Ali ''merging''. Iruma will become more like his Wicked Cycle full time, his personality being a mixture of regular Iruma and Delkira's, and as more and more Iruma grows in Rank, the more Ali will go to "sleep", more accurately preparing for the merge. Sullivan however, having grown genuinely attached to Iruma as his grandfather, will make sure to ensure that as much as Iruma remains as possible, so that he doesn't become ''too'' much like Delkira personality wise.

Much has been said and repeated over the series that the Misfit Class demons are all exceptional but also likely to be tempted to returning to Demon Origins. Wicked phase Iruma says this in his DareToBeBadassSpeech, while Baal has had Ocho, Atori, and Shiida to collect data on them to see who are good candidates to tempt to bring over. True to this gun being loaded, at some point, maybe near the climax, each member of the Misfits will be tempted, will be lured and offered things if they just give in and come to the dark side. However, as proof of Iruma's [[TheParagon nature and influence]], each one will reject these offers.
