3,000 years ago

He was later sealed away in the Coffin of Eternal Darkness with the rest of the Demon Clan by the Goddess Clan.

After Hendrickson manages to weaken the seal on the Coffin of Eternal Darkness, Gloxinia and the rest of the Ten Commandments appear before Fraudrin (in Dreyfus' body) and the terrified ex-Great Holy Knight. Shortly after being updated on the current state of Britannia, Zeldris suggests that they head east for Edinburgh Hill to recuperate their magical power. In agreement the Ten Commandments depart Zhuhur Valley, leaving Hendrickson alone. They arrive at Edinburgh Hill where Gloxinia and his fellow Commandments find a ruined castle, commenting on the powerful magic that destroyed it and finding a 30,000ft deep hole, which they conclude was Meliodas's doing.

Great Fight Festival arc
While waiting for the challengers to come after sending out invitations to anyone receiving them, he is alerted that Galan and Merascylla have been defeated and that Fraudrin has also been attacked and gone missing after sensing their presences by Dolor. After a suitable number of challengers manage to make their way through the labyrinth Dolor made, they decide it is time to begin the festival. Gloxinia then kills (almost) all of those still in the labyrinth with Vasquez, Form Nine: "Death Thorn" and reveals himself to be the former Fairy King and the "Repose" of the Ten Commandments, much to the shock of King and Elaine. When asked how he is alive and why he would betray his people, he simply replies that should King win, he woudld answer all of his questions. After pairing all the contestants up, he summons the three Blue Demons that delivered flyers: Dolzzo and Calzzo are teamed up together and Quazzo is teamed up with Silver. He and Dolor construct dolls to act as their representatives in the tournament.

King reveals himself as the current Fairy King, so Gloxinia and Dolor decide to test the king and increase their dolls' strength. With Chastiefol's Second Form losing to the dolls, King releases the sacred treasure's true power, impressing Gloxinia, who realizes the power was used to defeat Albion. In response to Dolor's question about Chastiefol, Gloxinia remarks on King's conceit in using its lesser forms to fight in the competition.

During Gowther and Escanor's fight, Gloxinia astonished by Escanor's power level that surpassed Galan's. In the end, Gloxinia and Dolor were crushed by Escanor's powerful attack that they thought was directed to Gowther.
