About

The Second Princess of the Asura Kingdom. As the only daughter of the current King's primary consort, she is the sole individual carrying the legitimate bloodline of the Asura royalty. She is third in line for the throne, following her two older brothers. Possessing immense charisma, she enjoys fervent support from the populace, which leads the first prince, Grabel—her rival for the throne—to view her as a significant threat. She is highly educated as a member of the Asura royalty and possesses an extraordinary charisma born of her beauty and a voice so melodious it brings comfort to those who hear it. However, much of this is a result of her talent for maintaining a perfect public facade; internally, she possesses the same vulnerabilities as any ordinary person. In the original story, she is depicted as becoming exhausted and haggard from the constant tension of living in an unfamiliar foreign land. While she is far more adept at navigating aristocratic society than the average person, she tends to rely on her charisma in interpersonal relationships. This led to difficulties when she attempted to recruit Special Class students, who either rejected her out of lack of interest, showed hostility, or were deemed too much for her to handle and thus weren't approached. Furthermore, in negotiations with the Armored Dragon King Perugius Dola, her usual approaches failed completely, leaving her spinning her wheels. Nevertheless, even within the Magic Academy and the Mage Order—organizations known for antisocial leanings and harboring members who secretly criticize the ministers and nobles controlling the government—not a single person criticizes Ariel. The late Derrick highly evaluated her potential, believing that if she became Queen and devoted herself to national improvement, she could break through the country's corruption, achieve great development, and perhaps even conquer the Central Continent.
