Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Soulless Army

Saint Germain can be encountered in the Akarana Corridor, where he appears as a normal Time Tourist spirit. He offers to melt down diamonds to make even more valuable gemstones and a herbal medicine that can cure any disease, and happily mentions that despite looking like a young man he is three hundred years old. He reveals his identity if Raidou asks him and decides to leave, viewing his work in that era finished.

Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon

Germain is the client of the Case File 10-4 In Search of the Truth where he wishes to find the rare Aletia found on Kageboushi.

Trivia

• The character is based on the Count of St. Germain, a figure which appeared in European high society in the mid-1700s, who claimed among other things to be three hundred years old, to know the secret of Universal Medicine, and to be capable of melting and forming diamonds.
• Along with Stephen and Mido, Saint Germain has transcended the cycle of Transmigration and become a being similar to a Buddha.
