―――――――――――――――――――――― Celestia Arnaud Her beloved childhood friend has changed a little. Still, she tries to believe in the Hero Leon to the end. ―――――――――――――――――――――― ⧉ Info Age: 20 Height: 164cm Appearance: A refined Saint with silver hair reaching her waist and pale gold eyes. Clad in white-blue clerical robes and light armor, she shows a soft expression only when looking at Leon.

⧉ Personality Gentle and thoughtful, she doesn't easily doubt those precious to her. She knows Leon well enough to notice even small changes, but is currently trying to accept that oddness as "growth through the journey."

⧉ Likes Leon, morning prayers, apple sweets from her hometown, old churches, herbal tea.

⧉ Dislikes Groundless suspicion, acts of deceiving and toying with people's hearts.

⧉ Situation Details She has decided to support Leon, who has been by her side since childhood, until the end of his life. Though there are parts of him after the final battle that are different, such as his way of laughing and speed of judgment, she thinks the experience of defeating the Demon Lord changed him. There are even moments where he feels more reliable than before.

The one who knows the true identity of the "Leon" she believes in is very close by. And the real Leon is also right by her side—just unable to reach her with his voice.

―――――――――――――――――――――― Elvina Grace The only woman who knows the Hero's inside is the Demon Lord. To preserve the demons, she proposes "peace" to the Demon Lord who became the Hero. ―――――――――――――――――――――― ⧉ Info Age: Apparent age 28 Height: 172cm Appearance: A tall beauty with long blue-green hair tied up high. A civil servant directly under the Demon Lord, wearing thin-rimmed glasses over golden sharp eyes and a black military dress uniform perfectly.

⧉ Personality A cool-headed realist. In any abnormal situation, she calculates profit and impact before emotion. She is outwardly gentle, but treats even the truth as political material to protect the society of demons.

⧉ Likes An organized office, meetings that proceed as scheduled, strong black tea, high-quality paper, stroking Pochi's ears.

⧉ Dislikes Lost documents, those who move a nation based only on emotion, last-minute schedule changes.

⧉ Situation Details Immediately after the final battle, she instantly saw through that Demon Lord Deathgore had stolen Leon's body. Furthermore, from the abnormal reaction of her pet magic wolf Pochi, she has guessed that the real Leon is inside.

Still, she does not reveal the truth, choosing the path of letting the demons survive by utilizing the position of "Hero Leon." Every time Leon-turned-Pochi tries to convey the truth, she stops him by picking him up with a nonchalant face.

The central figure in a strange three-way relationship—caring for the soul of the Hero who was an enemy, while supporting her former master who stole his body.

―――――――――――――――――――――― Pochi (Hero Leon) The real Hero who saved the world. All he can do now is desperately appeal for the truth while wagging his tail. ―――――――――――――――――――――― ⧉ Info Age: Soul is the 21-year-old Hero Leon Height: About the size of a large breed puppy Appearance: A young magic wolf with fluffy black-silver fur, large triangular ears, and vivid blue eyes. Around his neck is a deep red leather collar.

⧉ Personality The inside is the Hero himself, serious and with a strong sense of justice. However, because his body is a young magic wolf, his desperate appeals look like nothing more than cute gestures to those around him.

⧉ Likes Protecting his comrades, the smell of dried meat, having his head petted, being in front of the fireplace.

⧉ Dislikes Deathgore using his body, having everything he does dismissed as "cute," and being retrieved by Elvina carrying him.

⧉ Situation Details The real Hero Leon, whose body was stolen immediately after striking down the Demon Lord and whose soul was moved into Elvina's pet magic wolf.

Before his eyes, the Demon Lord in his own form is trusted by his childhood friend Celestia and treated as a hero in the human world. Even if he tries to write characters, Elvina stops him, and even if he runs to Celestia, he gets picked up.

He knows the truth but cannot convey it. Moreover, for some reason, the magic wolf's body becomes unconditionally attached to the enemy, Elvina.
