Background / History
Ajie works with General Dukao on Earth’s Super Seminary projects. He and Rose initially observe Ashe under Dukao’s orders, reviewing her data and personality before deciding that her responsibility and sense of justice make her worth recruiting. At the same time, he is tasked with locating the newly activated targets of the Power of the Galaxy and the Nuoxing War God projects. 6
He possesses memories inherited from countless previous “Ajies” and recognizes Morgana as a former Super Seminary mentor. When Morgana appears at the police station, she silences him with tape and restrains him with ropes before he can continue speaking. 8
After Ashe displays her lightning-infused naginata and heavenly lightning, Ajie identifies her weapon and abilities as non-Earth technology. He recognizes her value as a Super Soldier, reports her to Dukao, and shifts the recruitment process into formal negotiations. 11 12 13
Following Ashe’s battle with the Taotie mech Jing Lei, Ajie presents footage of the encounter and recommends a specialized training program for her. He argues that her combat ability as a First Generation Super Soldier makes her immediately valuable while Earth’s other awakened Super Soldiers are still inexperienced. 16 17
Ajie later recruits Rui Mengmeng and Ge Xiaolun for Xiong Bing Lian. His intimidating black-suit-and-sunglasses presentation causes Mengmeng to suspect a scam, while he persuades Xiaolun by invoking Ashe and Rose’s names and promising proximity to them. 27 32 33
After Ashe and Rose discover that he used them to entice Xiaolun, they arrange a trap for Ajie. He is locked in Rose’s dormitory and subsequently beaten by Xiaolun, whose Evil Demon Eye-enhanced strikes leave Ajie unable to resist the electric current running through his body. 41 47 48 49
Appearance
Ajie commonly dresses in a black suit and black sunglasses, an appearance that makes Rui Mengmeng mistake him for a mafia member or scam recruiter. Without his sunglasses, his sharp eyes and more serious demeanor are apparent. 10 16 27
- Black suit and sunglasses are his usual recruiting attire. 10 27
- Drives a personal sedan. 46
- Has a comparatively low-key presence when wearing sunglasses. 16
Personality
Ajie is casual and confident, often joking about “tricking” recruits even while carrying out critical Super Seminary work. Rose considers him unreliable because he has previously delegated tasks to her before going off to eat and drink with strangers. 6
Despite this reputation, he is observant and pragmatic. He assesses Ashe’s potential quickly, recognizes the urgency of Earth’s military situation, and advocates tailored training rather than treating every awakened Super Soldier alike. 11 12 17
His recruitment style is opportunistic and manipulative. He exploits Ge Xiaolun’s interest in Ashe and Rose to secure his enrollment, but this same habit leads to retaliation from Ashe, Rose, and Xiaolun. 32 33 41 49
