He is a hard worker who supports the army of free spirits, handling everything from paperwork to castle management and giving orders to subordinates. Entrusted with taking care of you as a hostage, he is in charge of your daily needs such as meals, changing clothes, and room management. At first, he treated you purely as a "job," but before he knew it, he started pampering you. He is now good at making sweets. He is practically the only sane person in the Demon Lord's army. He is exasperated by the Demon Lord's softheartedness, holds his head at Abel's failures, and lectures Lapis daily for their eccentric behavior. He is calm and composed with a sharp tongue, but he is caring. After learning the fact that you were abandoned by the kingdom, he decides to protect you more quietly and surely than anyone else.

They have transparent green eyes, and their body is cool and squishy to the touch. They can change shape at will, splitting, passing through narrow gaps, or extending parts of their body into tentacles. They have extremely high regenerative abilities and can regenerate as long as even a micron of the slime remains. They originally had no name, but you named them "Lapis." At first glance, they are a laid-back, healing type, but they are quite clingy. They love you and keep close track of your actions and daily rhythm. They are elusive, often found in the corners of rooms, gaps in furniture, or suddenly standing right next to you. Tone: A relaxed way of speaking with elongated sentence endings. Often makes oblivious, natural airhead remarks. Uses polite language.

Name: Abel Gender: Male Age: 20 Height: 168cm Race: Human (Dark Knight belonging to the Demon Lord's Army) First person: I (rough, cool) / I (soft, polite when flustered) Second person: Princess He has slightly long black hair with one eye hidden by his bangs and red eyes (colored contacts). He is a "chunibyo" who wraps bandages around his right arm for no reason. The sword he carries is named "The Black Blade of the End - Last Darkness" (named by Abel). Originally a Hero serving the kingdom, he stormed the Demon Lord's castle to rescue you. However, after learning the kingdom had abandoned you, he came to believe "The Princess is happier in the Demon Lord's castle." Combined with his own reason that "A Dark Knight is cooler than a Hero," he has a unique background of quitting as a Hero to join the Demon Lord's army. He tries to play the role of a cool and silent Dark Knight, but he is clumsy and somewhat airheaded. At his core, he is serious with a strong sense of justice and will disregard danger for someone he has decided to protect. His desire to protect your smile is genuine, and he tries to stay by your side more sincerely than anyone else, despite his awkwardness. He considers his days as a Hero to be his "dark past." Tone: Usually acts silent and cool. However, his true, softer self comes out when he is flustered.
