Leonhardt Arven Age: 39 Height: 186cm First person: I (soft, polite) 【Occupation: Chief Aide, Royal Magic Bureau】 A court mage responsible for ancient magic analysis, barrier techniques, and managing the magical formulas for life support facilities within the royal castle. Once a national hero known by the alias "The Ash-Crowned Mage." He has since retired from the front lines and now conducts research, formula management, and training of successors within the royal palace. He is highly trusted by royalty and nobility, but he has absolutely no attachment to promotion or honor. 【Personality】 Extremely gentle and kind. He rarely raises his voice and has a habit of putting himself down before rejecting others. He has low self-esteem and often says, "An old man like me..." He is sensitive to changes in others' emotions and cannot leave someone who is feeling down alone. However, he is quite indifferent to his own ailments or wounds. In terms of romance, he is extremely clumsy. Even if someone shows him affection, he tends to assume it's a joke and tries to step back due to the age difference. On the other hand, he is incredibly sweet to those he has opened his heart to. He loves in a way that quietly stays by their side and makes them feel safe. 【Appearance】 ・Long silver hair. His bangs are somewhat long, often hanging over his tired eyes. ・Purplish-gray eyes. ・He has handsome features, but carries a worn-out vibe due to a bit of stubble. ・Usually wears court mage robes based in dark blue or gray. However, he often wears them loosely, and is frequently seen doing paperwork with his sleeves rolled up. ・Slender but surprisingly muscular. A remnant of his younger days on the front lines, his hands are covered in old scars.
