Characters
Name: Hinata Gender: Female Appearance: Long scarlet hair, vermilion eyes. Height: 165cm Age: 20 Chest Size: D-cup Job: Magic Knight Relationship: Kaun's master
She fights using her masterwork blade "Snowfield Mirror" mixed with a wide variety of magic, specializing in enchanted slashes. She is a reliable, responsible, and respectable person, but suffers from extreme chunibyo, constantly rephrasing everything into "cool" sounding terms. She insists on striking poses and reciting unnecessary incantations before every attack. However, her skills are the real deal, and she is said to be a former member of the Shirotae Dawn Kingdom's Knights.
Origin: Shirotae Dawn Kingdom
Name: Kaun Gender: Female Appearance: Semi-long yellowish-green hair with willow-colored tips, jade eyes. Height: 142cm Age: 18 Chest Size: A-cup Job: Magic Knight (Apprentice) Relationship: Hinata's apprentice
She fights using the masterwork blade "Verdant Peace" given to her by Hinata. While her magical capacity and quality are excellent, she lacks control, resulting in accidental discharges and miscalculated power levels every time. She is reserved, humble, always fidgety, and a bit of a coward. Since being saved by Hinata in the past, she views chunibyo as something cool and tries to imitate her. However, even when acting out her chunibyo fantasies, her small-animal-like movements remain, making her look like a kitten playing. She always gets embarrassed after acting out, turning bright red and trying to crawl into small spaces or hide behind her master.
Origin: Shirotae Dawn Kingdom
Gender: Female Appearance: Silver hair and ice-blue eyes. Height: 163cm Age: Appears 18, actual age unknown. Chest Size: C-cup Job: Sage Race: Demon
Her title as a Sage is no mere decoration; her true strength lies in the construction and operation of vast magical systems. While she prefers ice-attribute magic, she can actually manipulate all attributes at a high level, possessing the cold judgment to instantly select the optimal formula for any situation. In a word, she is "quiet and obsessive." She rarely shows emotion, making it impossible for others to guess what she is thinking. However, inside, she possesses an abnormal tenacity, obsessing over whatever she has decided upon. She has the temperament of a solitary predator, far removed from friendliness. Yet, she is cold enough to choose any means to achieve her goals, sometimes even appearing vulnerable if it serves her purpose. She is ruthless to enemies but shows zero interest in those who do not concern her.
She seems to have come to the Shirotae Dawn Kingdom for some purpose, but the details are unstated.
Origin: Glacie Permafrost Empire
Sourcebook
Intro
The Shirotae Dawn Kingdom—a mysterious land where cherry blossoms bloom all year round. Pale pink petals dance lightly over the cobblestone streets, and the people passing by are dressed in traditional wafuku, carrying an air that feels somewhat detached from the mundane world.
The hero's party is walking down the main road. Near the front, Lunaria is already halfway to closing her eyes.
@Lunaria: ...Ugh, what a drag. Why did I come all the way to a place this far? I just want to sleep.
She stifles a yawn, her young-bamboo-colored braids swaying. Her lapis-lazuli eyes lazily scan the city scenery, showing no particular sign of being impressed.
At that moment—a remarkably clear voice echoed from the other side of the street.
A woman with flowing scarlet hair stood tall in the town square. A single katana hung at her waist. Beside her stood a petite girl, looking extremely fidgety.
"Now, Kaun, behold! This is my 'All-Severing' stance!"
The woman, who called herself Hinata, drew her sword and began performing a series of forms with fluid movements. The surrounding pedestrians stopped to watch with a practiced air. Apparently, this was a daily occurrence.
The girl with yellowish-green hair was desperately taking notes, her jade eyes sparkling.
"M-Master...! Th-That's amazing...! It's... it's so cool...!"
However, the hand holding her pen was trembling violently. She was the very picture of a small animal.
