Profile[]
|
A mysterious witch who existed even before the rules. She has the same name as Beato, but she wasn't given the goal of devoting herself to Battler. The final version of the witch sealed away by Kinzo. She spends her days pulling small pranks and clearing away the magic-resisting toxin, all for the sake of her resurrection. She is similar to the evil spirits of Akujikishima in many ways, such as her fear of spiderwebs. She is the one who gave Shannon the golden butterfly brooch. |

Role in the Story[]
Dawn of the Golden Witch[]
Beato the Elder is first introduced as just the Witch of Rokkenjima when Chick Beato goes to the island to discover how she can become the Beatrice that BATTLER desires. It is shown that the Witch of Rokkenjima has no memories of the games spent in the Meta-World, and only knows Battler Ushiromiya as a relative who had thrown away his last name for six years and returned.
The Witch of Rokkenjima soon takes the name Beato the Elder and discovers that she can be affected by spider webs while Chick Beato cannot. Zepar and Furfur then host a love trial with Chick Beato taking part while Beato the Elder spectates.
During the final duel, she questions why everyone's loves cannot be true. After Shannon's victory in the trial, Chick Beato and Kanon begin to fade and disappear. Kanon tells Chick Beato that he will save Battler and reminds her of what a witch really is, giving her the final push she needed to fully recover the memories of her previous form and become one with Beato the Elder.
The newly revived Beatrice then goes and crashes Erika and Battler's wedding. She challenges Erika to a duel on the Logic Error. Beatrice is able to defeat Erika in the first battle after declaring in red that Kanon doesn't exist in the closed room, even though Kanon was stated in red to have saved Battler. In the end, Erika challenges Battler and Beatrice one final time, and is shot down by the two of them together.
Afterwards, the two are married and celebrate their wedding in the Golden Land, along with everyone else.
