His first appearance was at the same time that Rio gave Flora to Vanessa after rescuing her, he was in front of the hut where Rio lived until then watching two soldiers carrying the assassin defeated by Rio, he talked about the assassin as his subordinate, he then broke a tini stone between his fingers and the assassin died. Five years later, he was listening Charles to grumb while drunken about his defeat against Rio, he got from him the location of the place where the outdoor drill would be held and made and spy of him inside the Hugenot house to give Stead a map with a false shorter route, days later he followed Rio, Christina's and Flora's group in secret while sending goblins under his control to attack them, when the group arrived to the cliff he sent a bigger and stronger group of monsters towards them resulting in Flora falling from the cliff due to her classmates' panic after that he sent a minotaur expecting it to be a way of measuring Rio's strenght.

While Rio was living in the spirit folk's village, Reis apprached a rookie adventurer pretending to be a member of the heavenly lions and offered him a place in the mercenary group in exchange of completing some jobs for him, Reis and the adventurer rode a griffing together until a black wivern's cave, Reis entered the caved when the wivern was hunting outside and stole its eggs, he stored the eggs in his shadow except one, he said the rookie adventurer to hold the egg close to his body while he rode the griffing towards the spirit folk's village, they arrived there the day after the spirit festival, he left the adventurer and the griffing alone inside the village's barrier until Sara, Ouphia and Alma arrived tp where they were with the village's warriors, the rookie adventurer tried to run away from them in the griffing, during his run away two black wivers leading a flock of black flying-lizards arrived there following the eggs' odour, the griffing crushed against a black wivern and lost the egg, the broken egg and the rookie adventurer fell near Latifa and the enraged black wivern began to attack her, Alma fought against that wivern for some time with the help of hers and Sara's contracted spirits, Sara, Ouphia and her spirit fought against the other wivern and Uzuma and the other warriors against the flying lizard, after Rio killed the black wiwern attacking Latifa and Alma the rest of the flock run away, after the fight Reis killed the rookie adventurer crushing a tiny stone on his fingers and left the places with the rest of wivern eggs stored on his shadow.

Two months before the hero summoning, Reis offered made a secret pack with the Arbor house, the Proxia empire would invide the Bertram's kingdom north region and allow them to pin all the blame of the defeat on the king's and Hugenot's conservative politics, after they take control of the kingdom due to that they would give them back the occupied land in exchange of breaking the alliance with the Galarc kingdom.

Two months after the hero summoning Reis was in forests aroung Amande transforming adventurers in revenants, then he ordered that revenant to go and bring him more people for him to turn them into revenants too, one of those groups of monster almost kill Miharu and Aki the day that Rio came back from asked permission to spirit folk's elders for taking Miharu, Aki and Masato to the spirit folk's village.

Two months the Arbor house that rose in power again was able of forcing Celia's family to give her to Charles as his wife, the wedding day Reis was in the church too and was able of feeling Aisia's presence when she was carrying Celia out of the city from there, when the Arbor faction lost face after losing Celia he decided to make a group of monsters to capture Liselotte and destroy or damage Amande as much as possible for the sake of balancing the strenght of both kingdoms.

Four days after the kidnapping he made a black wivern under his control to fly along the route of Liselotte's magic ship forcing her to stop in a city near Amande called Nor for avoiding calling the wivern's attention, there he found Flora, Hiroaki, Roana, and Hugenot that had to stop at the city to because of the wivern, Hiroaki forced Liselotte to let him go with her until Amande for looking cool in front of her, the group would stay that night in Nor, the next morning Liselotte rode a carriage with Flora, Hiroaki and Roana surrounded on the outside by her eight maids, behind her Hugenot was riding another carriage escorted by a group of twenty five knights.

When the group was near Amande Reis sent several hundreds of orcs and goblins to attack them, Aria took care of the monsters better than what Reis expected so he sent four minotaurs and some tens of revenant after them, after sending to fight the last monster Reis hid himself when he felt Aisia's presence getting near, then thanks to recognizing her sing he realized that Rio was Celia's kidnapper, Reis saw while still hiden how Rio saved Liselotte's group from the monsters that he sent as reinforcements, the he began to lament that he lost to many monsters and that he may need Lucius' help for continuing his plan.

While Rio and Liselotte's group went to Amande he went to Proxia's capital where he would ask the Lucius that was talking with Nidor his help for kidnapping Flora, the next day Lucius and him appeared in front of twenty of the knights working for Hugenot, Alphonse between them, after Lucius lets them unconscious Reis turned them into revenants and by Lucius suggestion he made Alphonse into a perfect revenant, he slept in the forest with Lucius and his revenants before the start of his plan for kidnapping Flora and damaging Amande as much as possible.

The next day, a little before dawn Reis made a minotaur to break Amande's west gate and sent after it two more minotaurs, some tenths of revenants and a coup of thousands of goblins and orcs, after seeing how the majority of the city and Lizelotte's strongest fighters fighting against the monsters in the west gate he went to the east gate, he made another minotaur to break the east gate and sent after him some tenths of revenants and a little more than one thousand goblins and orcs, after seeing Rio fighting against the monsters at the east gate he went to where Lucius and Alphonse were in Amande's north district, Reis had a third group of monsters prepared for sending them to Amande's south gate in case of Aisia going out to fight too, but because Aisia stayed in an inn as Celia's escort he didn't.

Reis, Lucius and Alphonse walked until a shelter near Liselotte's mansion pretending to be refugees and there they waited for a signal, Reis ordered to his strongest monsters like the minotaurs and the revenants to stay in the rear guard of the monsters group for making the strongest fighters able of killing them to need to stay longer in the battlefield, if they saw Aria and or Rio charging towards them for killing them at once they should roar loudly, the minotaur in Rio's side died without being able of sending the signal, but when he heard the roars coming from the west gate he entered Liselotte's mansion.

Lucius and him made the demonized Alphonse to guide them towards the room of the Beltram's people group, Lucius killed the two knights watching the door and Reis to the demonized Alphonse to enter the room with another four grey revenants, then he should let Flora escape and to not try to kill Hiroaki because he could awaken if he does it.

Three of the grey revenants began to fight with the three knights that were inside the room, the demonized Alphonse punched Hiroaki out of his way to hugenot and let the fourth grey revenant in charge of not letting Hiroaki to get in the middle while he was going to kill Hugenot slowly, Lucius took Flora out of the room at that time pretending to be helping her to escape, after Flora left Hiroaki counterattacked and killed the four grey revenants, after dodging a mass of water shot by Hiroaki's katana Alphonse run away from the room, Reis left Hiroaki who was pursuing Alphonse unconscious with a surprise attack and ordered Alhponse and another group of grey revenants to fight against the people in Liselotte's garden for they to not be able of following him and Lucius, minutes later Reis arrived just in time for saving Lucius from Rio and they teleported together to the basement of Proxia's castle where he would heal Lucius's wound placing a red gem inside his chest and would forbid him to interfere with Rio anymore.

At any moment of the month and a half until the evening was held remaining at that time Reis kidnapped Esther Rubia, Rubia kindom's second princess and forced her older sister Silvie to take him with her to evening party as part of her entourage, before the second day of the evening party he met with Charles and told to him to pretend to not know him during the evening party because he was attending to it as Jean bernard, a baron from the Rubia kingdom and not as the diplomatic from the Proxia empire, later that day a little before the beginning of the dancing time he entered a bathroom near the venue and left there a magic tool marking the bathroom as the destination of teleportation magic amd a magic tool for not letting the people around the bathroom to realize that magic was used there, Reis didn't really wanted to kill anyone with this, he just wanted the assassins to measure the hero's strenght and to cause chaos, if they really had managed to kill someone then that was a bonus, after the assassins were all defeated and capturer he killed them crushing a bag full of tiny stones in his hand.

Twelve days later, when Rio left the castle with Miharu he followed them until the rock house and the next day he kept tailing Rio's group until Creia, that night he observed from the sky how Rio and the girls helped Christina's group to get out of Creia, he then warned Alfred while pretending to be a common citizen about a group of suspicious people running towards the city's southgate, when Rio separated from Celia and Cristina's group for dealing with their first group of pursuers Reis sent two minotaurs and several tenths of orcs to attack them, Sara, Ouphia and Alma protected Celia and Christina's group from his monsters, after fight he shot a light bullet at Christina's head by surprise everyone reacted late to it but Rio arrived just in time for saving her.

Reis got out of the forest applauding to Rio, he introduces himself as Reis, a member of the heavenly lions for making them think that his attemp of killing Christina was because he wasn't going to cooperate with Charles in capturing her, he apologized sarcastically to Rio for getting in the way of his revenge and said to him that Lucius was alive and well, he asked him if he didn't find curious how both were now avenger and target of revenge, then he adressed Rio as "Rio-san" in front of everyone, after bluffing a little and warning Rio that if he loses his time with him the soldiers from Creia that comes to investigate about the minotaurs' roars he's let go of by Rio that a little after that run away from that place too with Christina's group.

Reis went to a hut were Arein, Lucci and Ven were waiting for him, in their presence he acted as if he was a member of the heavenly lions too and referred to Lucius as Lucius-sama, he explained to the three how their goal is to help to Charles to be the one capturing Cristina and why, then he explained the three his plan for locating Rio's group, three days later Reis and Arein located Rio's group travelling towards the Galarc kingdom, he ordered Arein to follow them from the distance while he went to Creia to say to Charles where Christina was, who was escorting her and his plan for making him the one that captures her.

Five days later, Rio's group leaves the last city before the national border, they're ambushed by Reis Arain, Lucci and Ven + a lot of hired adventurers, first Reis, Alain, Rucci and Ven surround Rio's group pretending to want to take Cristina from them themselves, Reis calls forth the hired adventurers, Rio begins to knock out the adventurers with his wind spirit arts while receiving at the same time attacks from Reis, Alain, Lucci and Ven, trying to create a way out in their encirclement for Cristina's group to escape being him the only one staying behind, the adventurers while pretending to pursue them let Cristina's group go and finally Sara and Alma stay behind too to help Rio and the battle changes to Rio vs Reis and Alma and Sara against everyone else while Ouphia is still with Cristina's group.

The action changes to Sara and Alma, first they fight 2 vs 3 With Alain, Rucci and Ven, the three decide they can't defeat them if they don't make it a 3 vs 1, so they order the adventurers to hold back Alma while they defeat Sara, but Sara uses water spirit arts to put a water bubble around their heads and defeats the mercenary trio, at the same time Alma defeats the adventurers with earth spirit arts and then the action changes to Rio vs Reis.

This fight was pretty much the same than their fight at the end of arc 4 in the Wn, both Rio and Reis are flying, with Reis trying to keep Rio away with light bullets, Rio charges against him while covered with a wind barrier and makes him crash against the forest giving him a kick in the stomach, then Reis attacks Rio making his right arm a sword of magic power, they cross in the air and Rio cuts that right arm, he was just about to finish Reis when Sara and Alma told him about Ouphia's situation and they run to help her, then Reiss thinks there alone that they already earned time but he doesn't know what will happen now, that maybe they've awoken the sleeping dragon.

Next day, Reiss and Nidor are talking when Lucius arrives screaming that Rio is his prey and why did Reis fought against him when interfering with him is supposed to be forbidden, Reiss puts some excuse and begins to talk about Rio’s power level, he says that he thought that Rio’s level would be great hero one thousand years ago, but now he thinks his level is awakened hero and if handled wrongly he may reach the transcends, he promises to Lucius that he will have a chance of killing Rio but he will have to do as he says by the moment, Lucius gets out of the room while angered, now Reiss explains Nidor step by step the plan to assassinate Haruto Amakawa, the black knight, also called Rio, he says to Nidor all the information about Rio that they have already gathered, the scheme to keep him away from Rodania to take Celia as hostage while he's away, how he needs to send him to the Paladia kingdom where Duran will give him false information prepared beforehand, how from now on he will go to try to secure Renji and as much strong fighters as possible to use against Rio, then they talk a little about the sixth yet to appear hero and how that hero seems to be the saint of an organization called the cult of the end.

A month later, the day after the Rio vs Nidor, Renji and Silvie were talking in an inn at Rubia's capital, in the middle of their conversation Reiss arrives and introduces himself as Jean Bernard, says to Silvie that if she wants to see Esther now is the moment, Silvie leaves the room with Reiss, and this before leaving shows Renji a smile purposefully more suspicious than usual for trying to make him follow them secretly, Renji looks through the window how Silvie and her bodyguard Elena enter in a carriage with Reiss and decides to follow them secretly as Reiss wanted.

Reiss rides a carriage with Lucius, Silvie and her escort Elena until a rocky place near the capital where Arein, Lucci ven are waiting with Esther, after a little of talk Renji would try to play hero rescuing Esther from them, Reiss convinced Renji of having a duel with Lucius betting to agree to follow his orders once if he loses, and if he wins he would release Esther, Renji is defeated by Lucius and left in Silvie's care while everyone else teleports back to Proxia's castle, Reiss went to see Nidor and asked him if Rio already came to the castle for attacking him, after Nidor said that he did he went to Lucius' room.

Reiss entered Lucius' room and explained to him that he needed his help for kidnapping Celia because Aisia the most like will be protecting her, he says to Lucius that Celia is the only missing piece in his plan for allowing him to kill Rio without anyone's interference, that with his help they may be able of capturing Aisia too, that he has interesting uses for her and how Rio was now in his way to the Paladia kingdom for visiting Duran.

Two days later, Lucius and Reiss are waiting together in the room where Celia and Aisia discover Reiss, in the exact moment Celia is going to open the door Lucius teleports to the same hut Cristina and Flora found after being teleported, after not finding them there he begins to follow their trace and when he finds them he just has fun watching them giving their best to survive from some distance, at the same time Aisia is chasing Reis while carrying Celia in her arms, in the middle of the chase he lets Celia in Ouphia's care and chases Reiss now alone, then they have the same fight than in the arc 6 of the WN, Reiss envelops himself in darkness and from that darkness a lot of monsters like minotaurs and flying lizards come out, Aisia kills them, Reiss takes out now a group of skeletons that Aisia crushes now, their remnants transforms into a great skeleton with wings a great sword and a shield, while kills it Reiss hides his presence and runs away.

After escaping from Aisia Reiss began to looh for Lucius, he even went to the Paladia kingdom too where Duran lied to him saying that he didn't saw him.
