Background

Ange was raised in a rural family that grew rye and barley and supplemented its food with fish. He enlisted in the military partly to reduce the burden on his parents and younger siblings. Though his initial military test found no magical talent, his warrior aptitude was exceptional. 4 5

While serving on the front lines, Ange discovered that Qi force protected him from the corrosive blood of Foul Spirits. He became a prolific battlefield skinner, dissecting their corpses, identifying their weak points, and sharing that knowledge with fellow soldiers. His skill earned him the titles Flayer of the Battlefield and Foul Spirit Skinner. 24 25

After military service, Ange entered the Imperial Magic Academy. He developed an unusually integrated combat style that combined warrior instincts, Qi force, magic, and rune technology, eventually becoming both a Rank 1 Mage and an Imperial Baron. 95 214 215

Appearance

Ange is described as tall and straight-backed. He frequently appears in Enchanted Armament rather than formal attire, with shimmering magic marks across his breastplate and pauldrons. 616

• His early fighting style used a one-handed axe and arm shield. 5
• His later equipment includes Flame Armament and other custom-built Enchanted Armaments. 614
• His Six-armed Momentum manifests as a humanoid image bearing his own face. 659 791
• At higher levels, he can take six-armed, eight-armed, and giant combat forms. 764 883 904

Personality

Ange is highly ambitious and self-directed. He views becoming stronger as both a personal obligation and a way to make a lasting name for himself, repeatedly setting goals beyond his current station. 5 725

He is practical but generous toward allies. During his early military service, he gave Foul Spirit magic crystals to comrades while keeping only the hides he had personally skinned, and he later supported struggling apprentices such as Thea because they reminded him of his sister. 24 147

As a lord, Ange favors development, merit, and coexistence over lineage or race. He states that humans, Northern Barbarians, Centaurs, and Kobolds should all be able to live healthily under his rule. 510

His compassion does not extend to threats he considers irredeemable. He ordered captured Black Magic Society infiltrators executed rather than interrogated, believing mercy toward enemies would invite future danger. 308
