List of The Legend of the Legendary Heroes characters

The Legend of the Legendary Heroes is a light novel series written by Takaya Kagami, illustrated by Saori Toyota, and published by Fujimi Shobo.

Main characters

Ryner Lute (ライナ・リュート, Raina Ryūto)

Voiced by: Jun Fukuyama (Japanese); Ian Sinclair (English)

The protagonist of the story. Ryner possesses Alpha Stigma (複写眼, [アルファ・スティグマ] Error: {{nihongo}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help)), an ocular ability which allows him to analyze various forms of magic. Through this, he has learned how to utilize numerous styles of magic through battle, and become a particularly strong mage. This is unusual, as often Alpha Stigma users are killed at a young age after their power causes them to go berserk. However, due to his father's implanting of a legendary demon lord's essence into him, Ryner is able to recover from such a state, which makes him a great object of interest to numerous individuals and groups throughout the story. Because of the discrimination and social stigma Ryner has faced because of his power, he is resistant to forming meaningful relationships to others. Later in the story, Ryner is nearly killed in battle, but awakens as "The Solver of All Formulas (すべての式を解く者, Subete no Shiki o Tokumono)" which grants him incredible omniperceptive abilities.

His real name is Feruna Lieutolu, and was born of the Noble House of Lieutolu.

Ferris Eris (フェリス・エリス, Ferisu Erisu)

Voiced by: Ayahi Takagaki (Japanese); Luci Christian (English)

A blonde-hair bishōjo with blue eyes who comes from a famous Swords-Clan (剣の一族, Tsurugi no Ichizoku) designated to serve as guards to the King of Roland. Ferris carries a typically emotionless expression, is extremely proud of her own beauty, and enjoys dango. She is assigned by Sion to accompany Ryner on his quest to search for the "Relics of Heroes". Ferris is traumatized by the strict training and abuse of her family. She is a skilled sword user and possesses inhuman speed and reflexes.

After rescuing Ryner from prison, she defects from her position serving the King of Roland and begins traveling with the Anti-Roland Coalition.

Sion Astal (シオン・アスタール, Shion Asutāru?)

Voiced by: Daisuke Ono (Japanese); Eric Vale (English)

Son of the previous king and a lowly commoner, Sion is the current king of the nation of Roland. Because of his lowly birth, he was shunned and hated by his half brothers. He vowed at a young age to become king so he can fix this corrupted world. While Sion was attending a military academy, Ryner, in a berserk rage caused by his powers, wiped out fifty Mage Knights from Estabul. Despite having had nothing to do with this deed, Sion was praised for having dealt such a major blow to the opposing forces. Thereafter, he led a revolution and ascended the throne, and is often known as the "Hero King of Roland". Despite his popularity with his people, he is often a target of assassination attempts, which at one point led to the death of his friend Fiole, for which he feels tremendous guilt.

Sion is widely known as a tactical genius, and is willing to sacrifice for the greater good, something about which he is greatly conflicted. He is initially a friend to Ryner, but later opposes him.

Roland Empire

Lucile Eris (ルシル・エリス, Rushiru Erisu)

Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita (Japanese); Jerry Jewell (English)

A cold, calm and reserved man, Lucile is the Head son of the Eris Swords-Clan, a position which he inherited after killing his own parents in order to save Ferris from being raped by their father. Lucile's real name is Relx Eris (レルクス・エリス, Rerukusu Erisu). He has absorbed the other half of the legendary demon's essence, thus becoming Lucile Eris, "The Weaver of All Formulas (すべての式を編む者, Subete no Shiki o Amu Mono)", granting him immense godlike powers and invincibility. However, Lucile regards this power, as well as Ryner's, as a curse, even going so far as to call himself and Ryner "monsters." Lucile supported Sion's revolution and ascendance to the throne of Roland, but intends to assassinate Sion if he should stray from the path Lucile hopes he will follow. He cares strongly for his sister, Ferris.

Milk Callaud (ミルク・カラード, Miruku Karādo)

Voiced by: Saki Fujita (Japanese); Jamie Marchi (English)

The captain of one of the Roland taboo hunter teams. She was raised in the same orphanage as Ryner and as a child asked him to marry her, although Ryner does not seem to remember this. Milk was sold to the noble Callaud family soon after and endured harsh training and entered the military to improve the Callaud family standing. She dislikes Ferris, but is willing to put up with her because she makes Ryner happy. She is unaware that Ryner is an Alpha Stigma bearer. Later in the story, she begins working for Roland as one of Sion's best agents, along with the taboo breaker squad. She is a love interest for Ryner.

Claugh Klom (クラウ・クロム, Kurau Kuromu)

Voiced by: Atsushi Imaruoka (Japanese); Mike McFarland (English)

Claugh is a senior statesman of Roland and the right-hand man of Sion. He is known as “Claugh of the Crimson Finger (紅指のクラウ)”, signifying his reputation as a killer. He was instrumental in helping Sion's revolution succeed, and under Sion holds the position of field marshal in Roland's army. While Claugh disagrees with many of Sion's military decisions, he remains loyal. Claugh prefers to attend to the front lines of battle, and dislikes focusing on the intricacies of Roland's politics. Claugh is also regarded as highly charismatic, as he is well liked by both the populace and his men.

Calne Kaiwal (カルネ・カイウェル, Karune Kaiweru)

Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro (Japanese); Chris Burnett (English)

A young man from the same orphanage as Claugh, Calne is described as Sion's left-hand man. He respects and is on close terms with Claugh and addresses him as senpai, and like Claugh, was an instrumental force in the revolution led by Sion against the previous tyrant of Roland. He is in charge of mainly the domestic and administrative affairs of Roland and also holds a military rank of major general.

Miran Froaude (ミラン・フロワード, Milan Furowado)

Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe (Japanese); J. Michael Tatum (English)

With raven-black hair and eyes, Miran Froaude holds the rank of lieutenant general of the Roland Imperial Army and is the adopted son of the former Marquis Karlal Froaude, bought as an orphan by the Noble House of Froaude. He quickly rose through ranks and was awarded the rank of colonel at a young age of seventeen. Believing that Sion has the caliber of a true king, one who can make difficult decisions and who understands the importance of making small sacrifices for the greater good, he came to Sion and proposed that they work together with Miran undertaking the covert ops and dark deeds of necessity. Froaude (as he's referred in the story mostly by his last name) believes that the only way to attain maximum peace is to unite the whole continent under one ruler. He is cold-hearted, emotionless, and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals with the maximum possible efficiency. Despite his extreme methods, sometimes carried out autonomously without the knowledge or permission of Sion, he holds a deep loyalty towards Sion, and is willing to risk his life if necessary, to achieve the grander goal of uniting Menoris under Roland's, and Sion's, rule.

Froaude's adopted father held an unnatural love for him, and was killed by Froaude's own hands together with the rest of the Nobles of Roland in an annihilation trap he laid in order to stabilize Roland internally so that Sion could turn his attention to external affairs. It was during that time that he first met Lir Orla and realized that other countries were already making their moves against Roland, and would have died if not for the timely arrival of Claugh. Thereafter, he was promoted to lieutenant general.

A descendant of Halford Miran, a legendary hero, Froaude is skilled in Roland's magic and also possesses the Rule Fragment known as "The Ring of the Dark Emperor (黒叡の指輪, Kokuei no Yubiwa)", which grants him the ability to summon shadow beasts, which have a variety of forms and attacks, can merge to form a protective barrier for a maximum of eight seconds and reattach missing limbs. He first met Ryner and Ferris at Toale's residence and without realizing they are also working for Roland, dealt Ferris a serious wound. During their second encounter while they were fighting Sui and Kuu, he indirectly saved Kuku by dealing Sui a fatal injury. Despite then knowing they were agents of Roland, he hid his identity by claiming that he was from the Stohl Empire. But because of Ryner and Ferris's beliefs, he expressed that it's a pity that he would still eventually have to kill them and left, gaining Sui's Rule Fragment, Blade of Dolueli, during that battle.

Froaude is constantly curious about the extent of Lucile's powers, and even risks his own life to test for any possible weaknesses in Lucile. He comes to the conclusion that Ferris is Lucile's weakness. Within Sion's court, he is the only person besides Lucile who knows of the existence of "The Mad Hero" within Sion.

Noa Ehn (ノア・エン, Noa En)

Voiced by: Mikako Takahashi (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard (English)

Former princess of Estabul Kingdom which was right at the southernmost end of Menoris, the only daughter of King of Estabul, Ruwe Ehn (ルウェ・エン), Noa is a seventeen-year-old (when first introduced) beauty with navy-blue long hair tied up in a ponytail. She has a very sharp and brilliant mind, and is well loved by the people of Estabul.

While Noa was technically the figurehead of the rebellion against Estabul's liege country, Roland, she was actually used by a noble of Estabul, Salawel (サラウェル, Saraweru), whom she trusted and who betrayed her when the rebellion was nearing its end. After the rebellion was suppressed by Claugh Klom and Miran Froaude, she was nearly killed by Froaude if not for Claugh's intervention. Thereafter, she was inducted into the nobility of Roland as part of a peaceful effort to stabilize Estabul which was merged with Roland, and subsequently resides within the royal compounds of Roland. She is in a romantic relationship with Claugh, who is six years older, and constantly worries about his well-being as he has a tendency to overdo things. Later, she aided Claugh to use her influence to help merge the army of Estabul with Roland.

Rahel Miller (ラッヘル・ミラー, Rahheru Mirā)

Voiced by: Yasunori Masutani (Japanese); Christopher Sabat (English)

A practical man in his thirties, Miller (as he is referred by his last name in the story) is the commanding officer of the "Taboo Breaker" squad. He holds the military rank of a major, and is also the husband of Ryner's master, Germer Kleisrole (ジェルメ・クレイスロール, Jerume Kureisurōru). He is extremely sharp and intelligent and often called a genius, and the brains in Sion's revolution. He was originally asked by Sion to become the field marshal due to his abilities veteran experience and seniority in Roland's military affairs, but rejected the position, preferring to work behind the scenes, gathering and developing talent, gathering intelligence, and managing covert operations. He appears to have also developed an interest in knowing Sion and Ryner's actual relationship.

Luke Stokkart (ルーク・スタッカート, Rūku Sutakkāto)

Voiced by: Satoshi Hino (Japanese); Mike Turner (English)

A member of the Taboo Hunter Squad that is ordered by Sion to keep surveillance on Ryner during his journey. He is very skilled fighter and is a good cook. Luke respects and concerns for his captain, Milk Callaud. Luke is also a master in magic trap where he uses his magic in forms of trap. In fact, Luke is so skilled to the extent that he easily defeated Miran Froaude (albeit with the use of the Rule Fragment Latsel Thread which he picked up after Ryner accidentally left it behind). Luke serves Sion with loyalty and has concerns for Ryner, informing him at a time that a paper has been issued ordering Ryner's assassination in the territory of Roland. This causes Ryner's temporary escape/disappearance. In the latest installment of the novels, Luke confesses to Ryner that he is in love with Milk. However, he tells him that he has less ability to love her properly than even Ryner, who does not understand what love is.

Lear Rinkal (リーレ・リンクル, Rīre Rinkuru)

Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto (Japanese); Josh Grelle (English)

A member of Roland's Taboo Hunter Squad alongside squad captain Milk Callaud, Luke Stokkart, Lach Velariore and Moe Velariore. Fights with a sword.

Moe Velariore

Voiced by: Atsushi Abe (Japanese); Orion Pitts (English)

A member of Roland's Taboo Hunter Squad alongside squad captain Milk Callaud, Luke Stokkart, Lear Rinkal and Lach Velariore. Fights with a sword.

Fiole Folkal (フィオル・フォークル, Fioru Fōkuru)

Voiced by: Miyu Irino (Japanese); Greg Ayres (English)

A cheerful and hardworking young man, Fiole was a commoner and got separated from his sister, Eslina, who was abducted by the nobility of Roland to be presented to Sion. He first tried to kill the nobles responsible and attacked Sion without knowing who he was. After realizing what was happening, Sion eventually returns Eslina to Fiole, and hired him as a personal assistant. He respected and admired Sion greatly, and was grateful that he became king, and worked hard to serve Sion to the best of his ability. Not long after, he was killed by assassins from the nobles making up the Anti-King faction which plots to remove Sion during the early period of his reign.

Eslina Folkal (エスリナ・フォークル, Esurina Fōkuru)

Voiced by: Ayana Taketatsu (Japanese); Alexis Tipton (English)

Sister of Fiole, Eslina is a girl with shoulder-length amber-colored hair. She was fourteen years of age when she made her first appearance in the story. She is very close to Fiole as she had lost her parents at the age of eight, leaving Fiole her only family. Later after Fiole's death, with the desire to inherit Fiole's will, she first served in Sion's cabinet as Calne's personal assistant. During that period, Eslina actively attempts to attract the romantic attention of Calne, and hopes to put a permanent end to his philandering practices. After Roland subjugated the south of Menoris, she is assigned to work in Runa Empire as a civil officer. When she heard about the defeat of Calne's army by the Remurus army, and Calne's whereabouts are yet unclear, she cannot sit still and returns to serve at the side of Sion, who is launching a campaign against Remurus.

Germer Kleisrole (ジェルメ・クレイスロール, Jerume Kureisurōru)

Wife of Rahel Miller. She once taught Ryner, Pia and Peria. She only appears in flashback.

Gastark Empire

Riphal Edia (レファル・エディア, Refaru Edia)

Voiced by: Kazuya Nakai (Japanese); Patrick Seitz (English)

He is the ruler of the Gastark Empire and a powerful warrior. He is named after the First Ancestor of Edia family, who was the first owner of the Rule Fragment Glouvil. His father told him the story of making of Glouvil and made Riphal promise to never touch the sword.

When Riphal was a child, the Stohl Empire conquered Gastark and killed his parents and many others. Stohl Empire took Riphal, Lir Orla and Rigwaltz Pentest as hostages. Riphal went along with it, and did not seek revenge because his father had taught revenge was worthless. Years later, after Lir confirmed that the Stohl Empire is led by a Goddess, he broke his promise to his father and revived Glouvil by sacrificing ten of his countrymen. Because of that, he decided never to turn back, so that those sacrifices have not been in vain.

Riphal, like Sion, dislikes the idea of waging war, and tries to reduce casualties as much as possible, as he believes there is no other way to prevent war, than waging war itself. He eventually meets Kiefer, in a battle against Stohl, and shows a liking for her, after she tried to protect two defenseless children, and eventually invites her to his side, to which she declines for the moment. He possesses the Rule Fragment known as Glouvil, which is a large one bladed sword, which upon sacrificing something, grants him great destructive powers that can easily surpass those of a large-scale spell. So far he has sacrificed his right leg, sense of smell, and his left eye for this.

Before invading the central of Menoris continent, Riphal released Kiefer who was suspected to be a Roland spy informing her of Sion's betrayal on Ryner and asking her to rescue him.

Rigwaltz Pentest (リーグルワーズ・ペンテスト, Rīguruwāzu Pentesuto)

Commander of the mage knight battalion of Gastark.

Lir Orla (リル・オルラ, Riru Orura)

Voiced by: Anri Katsu (Japanese); Newton Pittman (English)

The eldest of the Orla family, Lir has short peach colored hair and a cool and calm disposition. He wields the Rule Fragment, “The Ring of Lightning Beasts (來獣の指輪)”, allowing him to summon magical beasts of light. The Ring is said to be on the same level of power as Froaude's “Ring of the Dark Emperor”. He also possesses the Rule Fragment, "Rock Devourer (石喰い, [スパンクエル] Error: {{nihongo}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help), Supan Kueru)" which is used to extract out crystals from Cursed Eyes. In addition to that, he possesses a number of crystallized “Cursed Eyes” which he can invoke as weapons. Lir also appears to be knowledgeable in Cursed Eyes, Rule Fragment and the Legendary existence, noted when he could tell that Ryner has "The Solver of All Formulas" implanted inside his body which his brother failed to notice. When he first fought Froaude, he was demonstrated to be a quick-witted and cunning opponent, and almost killed Froaude if not for the timely arrival of Claugh. Unlike his siblings, he operates alone and carries out infiltration and assassination missions for the Gastark Empire. Later, during the battle with Geihlficlant, as Ryner was covering for Ferris, he took advantage of an opening and stole Ryner's Alpha Stigma. Thinking that Ryner's death was imminent, as to a Cursed Eye bearer, the eyes are as important an organ as the brain or the heart, he left the battlefield together with his siblings without realizing what he did was part of Vois' plan in triggering off Ryner's complete awakening.

Sui Orla (スイ・オルラ, Sui Orura)

Voiced by: Takuma Terashima (Japanese); John Burgmeier (English)

A tall lanky guy with peach colored hair with a comb attached to his hair, Sui is Kuu's elder brother and frequently travels together with Kuu. He is a young aspiring author with a seemingly friendly personality. However, underlying, he carries a strength and power beyond that of a normal human being. He possesses the Rule Fragment known as "The Comb of Elemio (エレミーオの櫛, Eremīo no Kushi)". The artifact is shaped like a comb and can be used to fire a powerful shockwave against the enemy, and is said to be an ideal weapon to counteract a berserk Alpha Stigma bearer's pentagram-shaped deconstruction power. In the anime, instead of firing a shockwave, it appears to emit an anti-magic forcefield. He also picked up the Rule Fragment that Ryner discarded after accidentally summoning a dragon from it. This Rule Fragment, "Blade of Dolueli (ドルエリの剣鱗, Dorueri no Kenrin)", is in the form of a dagger with a blue blade, and upon invocation by stabbing the sword into something, grants the invoker the power to call forth flames, which varies depending on the user and his will. In Sui's case, it took the form of a dragon encompassing his whole arm. The only anomaly was, that Ryner summoned a dragon the first time he used it. Later, Sui revealed this phenomenon occurred due to the ground having no will unlike humans. As such, it summoned out a dragon.

Like Riphal and Lir, Sui is an expert on the subject on "Cursed Eyes" and has a "hobby" of killing "Cursed Eye" bearers, crystallizing their eyes and adding them to his collection, which were later utilized as weapons by the Gastark Empire. In his second encounter with Ryner and Ferris, he forced Ryner into berserking, without realizing that Ryner's Alpha Stigma was not an ordinary Alpha Stigma, and was badly wounded by the berserk Ryner, losing his hand and the "Comb of Elemio" in the process, before being whisked away by Kuu's inhuman speed. Later he was gravely wounded by Froaude in a subsequent battle, and would have been finished off if not for Ryner's intervention, before being carried away again by Kuu. Eventually, during the battle with Geihlficlant, he was tasked by Riphal to retrieve Kiefer, which led him to another fight with Ryner, who was then apparently "slain" by Lir. During that battle, he wields a new Rule Fragment that looks like the Blade of Dolueli, except that it has a red blade rather than a blue one.

Kuu Orla (クゥ・オルラ, Ku Orura)

Voiced by: Mariya Ise (Japanese); Cherami Leigh (English)

A fourteen-year-old girl with long peach colored hair, Kuu is the youngest of the Orla family and is often seen wearing a completely black dress. While she has a bishōjo appearance, she carries a wicked tongue, and appears to be more mature than Sui, often complaining that she has to look after him, and may never to be able to become a bride because of this. Like her brother Sui, she wields a Rule Fragme known as "The Scythe of Ailuchrono (アイルクローノの鎌, Airukurōno no Kama)". The artifact is in the shape of a large scythe, and rapidly increases the wielder's strength and speed, allowing Kuu to easily match up to Ferris's speed. The blade also has the ability to freeze anyone who comes into contact with it, and Kuu manages to use this ability to stop Sui from bleeding to death. As a side effect, the artifact "freezes" the wielder's heart as well and Kuu will lose all her emotional capacity when she's wielding it.

God's Eyes Group

Enne Lune (エーネ・ルネ, Ēne Rune)

Leader of the God's Eyes Group, Enne has the body of a young girl, but is really of unknown age. The bearer of Torch Curse (未来眼, トーチ・カース, Tōchi Kāsu), when her powers became active, her body was cursed to stop growing. Invoking her eyes causes red-colored flying birds to appear over her eyes and allow her to see accurately into the future. She directs the God's Eyes Group, and from her ability she sees Lieral as a threat to the world. She also wants Ryner to act as a medium between the God's Eyes bearers and humans and become their king.

Tiir Rumibul (ティール・ルミブル, Tīru Rumiburu)

Voiced by: Takahiro Sakurai (Japanese); Robert McCollum (English)

A bearer of Cursed Eyes Īno Dwōe (殲滅眼, イーノ・ドゥーエ, Senmetsu me, īno do~ūe) who is a devourer of flesh, Tiir Rumibul has black hair and eyes. To satiate his unnatural hunger and at the same time power up, he consumes flesh and absorbs magic. He is also shown to have amazing athletic abilities, strength, and regenerative ability through the devouring. When he invokes his cursed eyes, a cross-shaped symbol appears over his pupils, allowing him to absorb magic of any form. Because of his cursed eyes, he is unable to use magic of any form, and before birth, he devoured his mother from the inside, killing her in the process. According to Tiir himself, this was said to be how Īno Dwōe bearers come forth into this world.

He has a past encounter with Claugh Klom. He spared Claugh's life prior to the events of the story, devouring Claugh's arm but not killing him. Claugh later regrew his arm through a forbidden curse developed by the former Roland. The two fight again later on and Tiir easily defeats Claugh, who loses his right arm again in the process. Claugh later uses forbidden cursed magic developed by the 'new' Roland under the secret orders of Sion, to once again regrow his arm, which is covered in pitch-black color this time round.

While Tiir is depicted as a ruthless murderer, he has shown sincere care for other Cursed Eyes or in his case God's Eyes bearer. He has a deep hatred towards Gastark due to their actions of hunting them and killing them to gouge out crystals.

Tiir and his comrades see themselves as special, being granted with special powers not available to others. Thus they refer their eyes as God's Eyes, rather than Cursed Eyes. Every now and then, he will seek out a cursed eye bearer to add to their group under the direction of Lafra, bearer of Ebula Crypt (夢置眼, エブラ・クリプト, Ebura Kuriputo). By using these eyes, red dots appear over the eyes and Lafra can see into the dreams of others and uses it to find other cursed eyes bearer. He was forced to leave Ryner to rescue two children in his care from Lir Orla.

Later, Tiir is tasked by Enne to hunt down and kill Lieral. Since Lieral's whole body was infused by magic, as an Īno Dwōe bearer, Tiir is his perfect bane.

Anti-Roland Coalition

Vois Feurel (ヴォイス・フューレル, Voisu Fūreru)

A young man and a self-proclaimed hentai, Vois is the Supreme Commander of the Anti-Roland Coalition, and appears to be under the influence of the Goddesses. He possesses four pieces of the “Derunio (Death Displacement Stone) (死の転移 デルニオ?, Derunio) Rule Fragment, which can be used to heal even the gravest of injuries of a person on the brink of death. In return, the stones need to suck up blood to replenish their powers and this is a slow process. He rescued Toale's army and people from extermination by Roland, and saved the lives of the seriously wounded Toale, Ryner and Ferris with the stones. Later he made use of Ryner and his companions in the war between Gastark and Geihlficlant. While originally at loggerheads with Pia, he eventually sought her alliance to support Ryner as the new king of the Coalition and fight against Roland and the Mad Hero.

A jester most of the time, in serious circumstances, Vois was also demonstrated to be a practical and emotionless person. This could be seen when he decided to throw away Reyluca's life to save up the limited Derunio stones for more important and critical usage during the war with Gastark.

Reyluca Redner (レイルカ・レデーナ, Reiruka Redēna)

With brown hair and black eyes, Reyluca is a young, talented bishōjo. She is in love with Vois and bears absolute loyalty to him. During the war between Gastark and Geihlficlant, she shielded Vois from Lir's attacks and in spite of being on the verge of death, she did not seem to mind even when Vois wanted to sacrifice her to save up the Derunio stones. She was ultimately saved when Vois was pressured by Ryner and his companions.

Harmit Voluph (ハーミット・ヴォルフ, Hāmitto Vorufu)

With long deep blue hair, Harmit, like Reyluca, is a close aide to Vois, and serves as a lady warrior.

Azure Princess group

Pia Vaaliey (ピア・ヴァーリエ, Pia Vārie)

Sprouting light blue long hair and possessing a flighty nature, Pia is the Queen of the Azure Princess Mercenary Group, which is employed by Geihlficlant Empire to crush small countries in Central Menoris. She has a hereditary talent in magic, and originally, with Peria and Ryner, she underwent hellish training in the Germer Kleisrole Institute, before running away with Peria and Zorra. Currently she is allied with the Anti-Roland Coalition with a common goal of defeating the Mad Hero, but is still at odds with their supreme commander, Vois Feurel, stating that she is only helping Ryner. Sees herself as an older sister to Ryner and the rest.

Peria Peruela (ペリア・ペルーラ, Peria Perūra)

A young man with blond hair and possessing a competitive nature, Peria left Roland together with Pia, and serves her as a close aide and also performs covert ops such as intelligence gathering. He is in love with Pia.

Zorra Rom (ゾーラ・ロム, Zōra Romu)

Zorra is a magician formerly employed in Roland's Taboo Breaker Pursuit Squad and was tasked to hunt down Pia and Peria. On meeting Pia, he fell in love with her on first sight. Eventually, at a later date, he joins Pia's group and serves as an assassin. He competed with Ryner for the title of "The Strongest Magician in Roland"

Others

Kiefer Knolles (キファ・ノールズ, Kifa Nōruzu)

Voiced by: Fuyuka Ōura (Japanese); Brina Palencia (English)

With scarlet hair and eyes, Kiefer is described to be a young pretty lady and stands slightly shorter than Ferris. She debuted in the story with short crop hair, but later in “The Legend of the Great Heroes of Legend”, three years after meeting Sion and Ryner in the Roland Royal Special Military Academy, she now sprouts shoulder-length hair. While appearing to be soft-spoken, she is bold in her feelings and has a caring heart. She is also portrayed as intelligent and relatively more skilled in magic than the average mage.

Kiefer is of Estabul origins, and at the age of fourteen, after Estabul had already become a vassal country of Roland, she witnessed the death of her elder sister under the hands of Roland's mage knights during the rule of the former tyrannical King of Roland, while her elder sister tried to protect Kiefer and her younger sister. In order to save her younger sister, the last of her remaining family, she agreed to become a spy for Roland while her younger sister was taken hostage. While pretending to work as a spy for Estabul and infiltrating the Roland Royal Special Military Academy, she is in fact a double agent working for Roland, and as such is versed in both Estabul and Roland magic.

Despite falling in love with Ryner during the days in the academy, Kiefer had no choice but to betray her classmates to the Estabul mage knights in an elaborate internal plot to kill Sion. Unknowingly, her younger sister had already been killed. Kiefer holds a strong love for Ryner and is grateful to both him and Sion for not holding the deaths of their classmates against her. After Sion ascended the throne, she proclaimed a desire to travel around the world, but in truth, she was seeking more knowledge on Alpha Stigma with the hope of saving Ryner. Her journey took her to the north of Menoris where she eventually met Riphal, King of Gastark, who was attracted to her romantically. There, she learned more of the Cursed Eyes, Rule Fragment, and the legendary powers, The Priest, The Goddesses, The Demonlord, and The Hero. She was subsequently accused of being a spy for Roland, locked up, and finally released by Riphal and tasked to bring Ryner to Gastark.

After reuniting with Ryner, Kiefer met Ferris and sees her as a strong love rival. Thereafter, together with Ryner, Ferris, Toale, Iris, Arua, and Kuku, she travels with the Anti-Roland Coalition. During the battle with Gastark in Geihlficlant, she refused to return to Riphal's side with the Orla siblings and aided Ryner and Ferris in their battle with them.

Toale Nelphi (トアレ・ネルフィ, Toare Nerufi)

Voiced by: Yūto Suzuki (Japanese); Todd Haberkorn (English)

Bearing brown hair and eyes, Toale is the grandson of Gread Nelphi, the previous King of Nelpha. Similar to Sion, he was born of the union between Prince Starnel and a lowly commoner. He is around the age of Ryner, has a gentle disposition, always thinks of others first, and works hard to take care of his “brothers and sisters”. As such, he is well loved by the populace of former Imperial Nelpha.

Toale first met Ryner and Ferris when they just started their journey to search for “Relics of Heroes”, and did not know that they were from Roland initially, but treated them as important friends nevertheless. Without knowing of the incident initially, he was almost assassinated by Froaude then, if not for Ryner and Ferris. He also met with Sion in person briefly without realizing his true identity.

When Roland invaded Nelpha, he killed Prince Starnel during the confusion, and dispatched a letter of surrender in the name of his grandfather to Roland in order to minimize the loss of human lives. Subsequently, he led ten thousand troops together with commoners and flee the capital from a possible massacre. Later, Ryner, with the intention of rescuing his friend, came up a plan of escape for Toale and his people, and joined up with Toale together with Ferris, Kiefer, Iris, Arua, and Kuku. The plan backfired when Sion did not react the way Ryner expected, and the company was under heavy attack from Roland's troops, and much of Toale's forces perished. Toale carries feelings of love towards Kiefer, and during a large-scale magical attack, as Toale tried to shield Kiefer, he was fatally wounded, having a third of his body destroyed, and would have died if not for the regenerative powers of the Rule Fragment, “Derunio (Death Displacement Stone) (死の転移, [デルニオ] Error: {{nihongo}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help), Derunio)”, provided by Voice, when the company was saved by the Anti-Roland Coalition. Thereafter, the remnants of Toale's forces join up with the Coalition.

Iris Eris (イリス・エリス, Irisu Erisu)

Voiced by: Tomosa Murata (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)

Iris is the younger sister of Ferris and Lucile, with blonde hair sprouting twin tails, and wears dresses with frills. She greatly admires Ferris and can be somewhat over-protective of her, especially from Ryner. Despite her looks she is skilled at hand-to-hand combat and like her sister, is capable of moving at inhuman speed. She's also skilled in stealth missions and can often bypass the tightest of security.

In the story, Iris is shown to be a naive and innocent child, often believing, without any shadow of a doubt, in the little lies Ferris tell her, such as "you'll die if you sigh three times", or that "Ryner awakens as a wild beast in the night to assault girls". As a result, her name for Ryner is "Wild Beast". She always tries her best to please Ferris, and thrives on praise from both Ferris and Sion.

In the initial part of the story, Iris serves as a messenger between Sion, and Ryner and Ferris, and likes to illustrate the messages with drawings, which Sion often has to rack his brain to decode them. Later, after Ryner and Ferris escape from Roland, she goes after them and, together with Ferris, was nearly killed by Froaude, if not for the intervention of Lucile. Together with Arua and Kuku, she joins up with Ryner and Ferris's company and travels with the Anti-Roland Coalition.

Arua (アルア, Arua)

Voiced by: Akiko Yajima (Japanese); Leah Clark (English)

A six-year-old boy when he debuted in the story, with black hair and black eyes, Arua is an Alpha Stigma bearer from Runa Empire. Runa, a religious empire, branded him as a monster, and captured him for experimentation. He witnessed his parents being killed in front of his own eyes, and almost went berserk if not for Ryner. After being saved by Ryner and Ferris, he learned magic from Ryner and trained his physical body under the tutelage of Ferris, all this to save Kuku from the Orla siblings. Thus he sees himself as their disciple. Ryner remarked that even the most talented magic user would require at least a year before he is able to see the particles of light that are used for magic. But for an Alpha Stigma bearer, this becomes an inborn ability, thus enabling Arua to start learning spells immediately.

After saving Kuku, together with Kuku and Iris, he defected to Roland and lived in the Eris mansion. Later, after Ryner and Ferris escaped, together with Kuku and Iris, he joined up with Ryner's company. When Ryner and Ferris were blitzing Roland's camp, Arua assisted them and displayed his ingenuity by blending in Roland's magic with Nelpha magic to launch a surprise ranged magical attack. Throughout the story, Ryner shows a lot of concern to Arua's growth mainly because they are both Alpha Stigma bearer.

Kuku (クク, Kuku)

Voiced by: Saori Hayami (Japanese); Jad Saxton (English)

Kuku, an orphan, is the childhood friend of Arua. She was the first person to be willing to talk to Ryner and Ferris when all the villagers were running away from them. After Arua was saved by Ryner, Sui and Kuu abducted Kuku and lie in wait for Arua in an attempt to crystallize his eyes, without knowing that Ryner and Ferris were the rescuers. She was almost killed as a hostage by Sui if not for the intervention of Froaude. Thereafter, together with Arua, she defected to Roland and lived in the Eris mansion.

As Arua has promised to protect her for life, she sees herself as the fiancee of Arua despite her age. Later, she then travels together with Arua, and Ryner's company with the Anti-Roland Coalition.

Lieral Lieutolu (リューラ・リュートルー, Ryūra Ryūtorū)

Voiced by: Rikiya Koyama (Japanese); Jason Douglas (English)

Formerly Duke Lieutolu of Roland, Lieral is the father of Ryner (Feruna Lieutolu). The House of Lieutolu, also called the "Overseer of Magic House Lieutolu", was a major Noble House of Roland, and had a standing matching up to that of the Eris House. Lieral is a genius who created much of the fundamentals of Roland's magic today, and he manages a number of scholars and academics in wizardry to further the advancement of magic. Lieral's flesh body has been infused and permeated with magical energy and like Lucile, he has an ethereal body which made him immune to any form of physical attack. He can alter his physical appearance to assume any age, create simulacrums and projections of himself, and is well versed in various of forms of magic inscriptions and incantations, making him so formidable and powerful that Ferris's strength and movements are like child's play to him. Currently, he is a practitioner of ancient magic and true word magic. However, because his body is almost completely made up of magic, his natural bane are the bearers of the Īno Dwōe (殲滅眼, [イーノ・ドゥーエ] Error: {{nihongo}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help), Senmetsu me, īno do~ūe). When Īno Dwōe's power is invoked by its bearer, a cross-shaped symbol appears over their pupils, allowing the bearer to absorb magical energy to increase their powers.

Since young, Lieral has no interest in anything but magic. However, due to a stroke of coincidence, he bumped into a village girl, Iluna Laswhale (イルナ・ラースウェル, Iruna Rāsuweru), and fell in love at first sight. Subsequently, they were married despite the objections from both families. When he discovered his newly born son was born with the Alpha Stigma, he immersed himself deeply into the research in magic to save Feruna from the doomed fate of an Alpha Stigma bearer. Consequently, he split "The Lonely Demon" into two parts, placing the "Lonely" fragment into Feruna, and the "God Devouring" incantation into the head of Relx Eris. Furthermore, in order to protect Ryner from "α", the Curse of "The Goddess" for erasing "The Solver of All Formulas", he infused Iluna's body with magic, and implanted the resulting spiritual existence, "The Charm of Ātofāru (アートファールの呪い, Ātofāru no Maginai)", into Ryner. Furthermore, he first tested the feelings of Ferris for Ryner before affixing the "God Devouring" talisman to her sword.

Due to Lieral's action of splitting and implanting the Lonely Portion into Feruna's body, he is deemed a traitor and has an issued order of assassination by "The Mad Hero". He is also hunted by Tiir of the God's Eyes group as their leader, Enne Lune, states that Lieral will destroy the world.

Despite being dead, she lives inside Ryner as "The Charm of Ātofāru (アートファールの呪い, Ātofāru no Maginai)". When Ryner was stabbed by Lieral, Ryner enters his inner world and meets Iluna.
