I saw a lot of people wondering whether or not Nergal and Cliff are the same person so I thought I'd address it: The author said in one of their notes (on L*zhin) that Cliff has NOTHING to do with Nergal, they themselves spoiled it and were apparently puzzled that the readers even thought about that LMAO. This is the (MTL'd) part of the Q&A addressing the issue, quoting: " q. Are Nergal and Cliff the same person? When I first received this question, I was quite embarrassed because it was completely unexpected, but at the same time, I was impressed by the readers' unique perspectives. (I think he was attracted to me because of the shape of my ears + my dark hair + my hair length.)
In conclusion, the two are unrelated strangers. Absolutely nothing like Nergal from a parallel world or a sibling relationship! no. We’ve never seen each other face to face!! However, the two are aware of their existence. In the case of Nergal, I learned about him because Leon often mentioned Cliff unconsciously (refer to Episode 18). In Cliff's case, he knew Nergal as the 'head of Darkfall'.
It's a secret where he hangs out, but Cliff is alive and well(?). "
YES, THE AUTHOR CONFIRMED THAT CLIFF IS (KIND OF) ALIVE AND WELL! So don't worry about that, Cliff will return, and don't worry about Nergal being Cliff (that would be horrible IMO)
