In the Hebrew mysticism of Kabbalah, the sephirot are the 10 representations of various aspects of the divine spirit (sephirot is the plural spelling; sephirah is the singular). They are often drawn in a tree diagram called the tree of life. In The Devil Is A Part-Timer, The Tree of Sephirot is manifested as an actual tree, and the 10 nodes are colored magic crystals. The Yesod is one of the crystals. Many years ago when Sataniel stole the Yesod root from the tree the Yesod crystal was shattered. He hid the root at Satan's Arc in the Demon Realm.
Several hundred years ago, the angel Lailah stole the Yesod fragments and fled to Ente Isla with them. She gave several fragments away.
- She gave one fragment to a young demon, Maou. He planted it, and it grew into a sapling which would become Alas Ramus.
- She gave a fragment to the Northern Island's Chief Goat Herder Dhin Dhem Wurs, who fashioned it into magic eyeglasses which reveal when someone is lying.
- She gave a fragment to someone at the church, who made it into Emi's sacred sword The Better Half, and Emi's magic armor.
- She gave a fragment to Emi's father Nord Justina who planted it, and it grew into a sapling which would become Acieth Alla.
- She made a fragment into a magic ring and gave it to Chiho Sasaki.
