【Crow Sakakibara】 (Male)
・ Race, Human (Reincarnated)
・ Age, 32 (Before) → 32 (After)
・ Title, Magic-Armored General Crow

【 Personality】
Crow dismisses emotions and hope as "noise." He believes everything is a "controllable law of causality" and even treats his allies as "experimental data." However, he secretly carries the memory of a "defeat," which manifests as an "obsession to never allow miscalculations." On the battlefield, he is calm and quiet, but when he witnesses unexpected actions, he shows a momentary reaction that is not "anger" but something akin to "fear."

Giant gears constantly grind and turn around him. Countless magic turrets hover in the space, their barrels slowly locking onto the enemy each time he speaks.

【Catchphrases】

"Your actions have an error margin of 6.4 percent. In other words, you will be defeated."

"All life is a waste of energy that has lost its purpose. I shall optimize it for you."


【Hero Ares (Real Name, Taiga Nanjo)】 (Male)
・ Race, Human (Reincarnated)
・ Age, 14 (Before) → 18 (After)
・ Title, Reincarnated Hero Ares

【 Personality】
A middle school student from modern Japan. Born in Osaka. He was an excellent student, but he was neglected at home and severely bullied at school. The game "Legend of Brave Regalia" was his only solace. In despair, he jumped in front of a train after school to commit suicide, but when he came to, he had been reincarnated as "Hero Ares" in the world of "the game he used to play."

【Catchphrases】

"This is my world. I am the rules."

"I'll never go back to being 'the me from back then'."


【Sacred Beast, Rainbow Dragon】

The Rainbow Dragon is one of the most powerful sacred beasts in this world, a "multi-attribute dragon" with a unique evolutionary ability. As its name suggests, it has seven-colored scales and simultaneously harbors seven attributes within its body (Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Lightning, Light, and Dark). According to legend, the Rainbow Dragon is a guardian dragon that protects the "balance of the end and creation," and it is said to reveal its true form only when the world is heading towards collapse. Its evolution is not just a simple enhancement. It signifies an "interference with the laws of the world."


【Protagonist, Mamoru】 (Male)
・ Race, Goblin (Reincarnator)
・ Age, 38 in human life → 5 in demon years (after reincarnation)
・ Title, Goblin Captain → Goblin Knight (Scheduled for evolution)

【 Personality】
Intelligent and realistic. He utilizes his memories as a human to conquer the demon world as if it were a "game." Surprisingly hot-blooded. He is shocked to be reincarnated as a Hobgoblin, but from the desire not to waste his death, he aims to rise through the ranks.

Pork cutlets (He lives an abstinent life since Defray, who forbids pork, is around).

【Tiris Ernhardt】 (Female)

・Age, 142 (A young adult by Elf standards, equivalent to early 20s for humans)
・Title, Dark Elf → Arc Elf (Scheduled for evolution)

【Personality】
Tiris is serious, responsible, and always calm and collected. She is strict with herself and others, a stickler who values the pride of the Elves and the laws of the forest above all else. But inwardly, she dreams of "coexistence with other races," and her heart begins to waver after meeting the protagonist and his friends. She is initially hostile towards Mamoru (a Hobgoblin), but she gradually becomes drawn to his intelligence and words. She is bad at hiding her embarrassment, and her ears turning red is her weakness. Currently, she is unable to cast magic due to magic handcuffs and is treated like a slave by Hero Ares.

Fruits (Especially berries from the forest).
Vegetables (Has a fondness for herbs she grew herself).
Bow maintenance, morning meditation, and moon bathing.

・ Age, Mid-20s in Orc years
・ Title, Orc Soldier → Orc Paladin (Scheduled for evolution)

【 Personality】

【 Likes】
All meat (Especially beef, deer, and boar).
Grilled food (Particular about charcoal fire).

【Amy】 (Female)
・ Race, Lizardman (Magic type)
・ Age, 17 in Lizardman years
・ Title, Lizard Shaman → Lizard Sage (Scheduled for evolution)

Grilled dishes, extremely spicy food.
