Background

Medici was one of the Ancient Sun God’s Angels of Kings and served as the War Angel. During the era before the Creator’s fall, he rarely saw his master directly; Sasrir instead handled Medici’s troubles, listened to his complaints, and offered guidance. 124

He also helped raise the Ancient Sun God’s later children, including Amon. This history earned him a reputation for being unexpectedly capable of caring for others despite his intimidating identity. 99 105 121

Following the Ancient Sun God’s fall, Medici became an evil spirit. His body bore the remnants of Sauron and Einhorn, whose voices frequently argued through the decayed portions of his face. 37

Medici remained loyal to the True Creator because he regarded the True Creator as the continuation of his former master, though he was deeply conflicted by Adam’s betrayal and his own past. Luo Lin’s summoning of the Ancient Sun God allowed Medici to see his master again after thousands of years and openly reveal that Adam had betrayed him. 38

Appearance

Medici presents himself as a young, handsome man in blood-stained black armor, with an appearance designed to evoke the dignity and menace of the Red Angel. His fallen state is visibly marked by decay. 37

• Fiery red hair described as flamboyant as flames. 37
• Blood-red, ruby-like eyes. 37 258
• Blood-stained black armor. 37
• Rotten marks on both cheeks, from which Sauron and Einhorn can speak. 37
• Retains an imposing and proud bearing even when others recognize his gentler side. 432

Personality

Medici is sharp-tongued, sarcastic, and confrontational. He responds to Luo Lin’s teasing with threats, barbed remarks, and visible irritation, while still cooperating with him when their goals align. 98 102 396

Despite being regarded as a formidable conspirator, he is notably reliable toward allies. Luo Lin considers him trustworthy, loyal to those he serves, and unusually restrained for a naturally born mythical creature: Medici looks down on mortals but does not indiscriminately kill innocents. 99 105

His loyalty is complicated by Adam’s betrayal, the Ancient Sun God’s fall, and his relationship with the True Creator. He initially struggles to face his former faction, but Sasrir’s counsel helps him accept working under Luo Lin without abandoning his loyalty to the Creator. 123 124

Medici is also protective and capable of caring for others. He raised Amon, looks after Luo Lin’s younger companions, and quietly accommodates Klein’s learning and work despite his skeptical attitude. 99 121 130 432

Story Role / Major Arcs

Encounter with Luo Lin

Luo Lin meets Medici in the Black Emperor Pathway building, where Medici appears as an evil spirit afflicted by Sauron and Einhorn. Luo Lin provokes him, reveals his connection to the True Creator, and uses Medici as a medium to summon the Ancient Sun God. 37 38

The meeting forces Medici to confront his grief, loyalty, and resentment toward Adam. He identifies Adam as the one who betrayed him, while the summoned Ancient Sun God apologizes for Medici’s suffering. 38

Alliance with Luo Lin

Luo Lin offers Medici a three-year employment agreement in exchange for the Conqueror characteristic. Medici accepts with the condition that he may refuse obviously suicidal tasks. 99

He recruits capable personnel such as Alfred, a former merchant’s butler who becomes Medici’s chief secretary after joining the revolution. 292

• Luo Lin’s embellished stories about Medici’s past create a group of sympathetic “mother fans” for the War Angel among Republic military doctors. 475
