Biography
In Volume 3, when the leaders of the Holy Church were having a meeting to discuss a defeat he suffered from the Liberators at Andika Darrionaccompanied Pope Ishtar Langbard as he arrived after everyone else and remained by his side. Once the meeting was finished. Darrionremained by the pope side as he and the church's new Oracle Ainz Arsalk had a private meeting with the Templar Knight's Commander Laus Barn.

In Volume 4, Darrionand the Paladins arrived near the Pale Forest where the church's forces were battling both the Liberators and the Haltina Republic. As they church's forces were starting to lose their momentum, Darrionordered them to retreat in the name of their god Ehit, to which they complied without question. Oscar Orcus and Lyutillis Haltina were about to attack the retreating members of the church, but Laus intervened and warned them of Darrionand the Paladins abilities. Ultimately, the church managed to escape without incident.

When Laus was preparing to take his family and flee with them to join the Liberators, he saw his youngest son Sharm being escorted by the rest of his family, Darion, and several other knights. Sharm had been severely injured due to the church attempting to brainwash him into serving Ehit without question, but had failed to do so. Ash Laus attempted to free his son and escape, Darrionattacked him with the butt of his Divine Spear Longinus Artifact. Laus blocked the blow with his hammer, then used his Solid Specter spel to project his soul out of his body in order to attack the knights hat were restraining Sharm. Darrion attempted to stab Laus’ body while it was unoccupied, but Laus stalled him with a Soul Shock and reunited his flesh with his spirit. The moment he returned, Laus sent out chains of light to grab Sharm and pull him over, while keeping Darrionat bay with his hammer.

Laus healed Sharm and then handed him off to his personal guard Reinheit Ashe so that the two of them could escape while he would hold off Darrionand the rest of church's forces. As they fled, Reinheit was attacked by Darrionby stabbing him with his Divine Spear. Darrionthen offered to spare Reinheit if he handed over Sharm, but he refused out of his own desire to help those that were in need of help. Darrioneffortlessly managed to severely injure Reinheit and proceeded to capture Sharm by grabbing the scruff of his shirt and headed back to the church. It was then that Reinheit somehow managed to awaken a hidden power within him and prompted Darion's other weapon, the Holy Sword Uralt, to approach him on its own. It managed to heal him, and gave him the strength to fight back against Darion. As Reinheit charged in with his new weapon, Darrionmanaged to block him with his Divine Spear. The battle soon ended with both of them mortally wounding each other with a single stab. Reinheit used his remaining strength to tell Sharm to head out and find the person that had inspired Laus to stand up against the church. As Sharm was about to follow Reinheit's wish and head out, he was blocked by Darion, who somehow still had enough life left in him to fight, and was prepared to kill both of them, but Laus arrived at the last second after having escaped the church's forces (at the cost of his left arm) and killed him with a lethal punch in the face.
