Chapter 8

Here is an introduction to the characters that have appeared up to the end of Chapter 1.

I have described their appearances in detail, so please use this for additional information as well.

●Flam Apricot

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Height: 156 cm

Weapon: Two-handed sword

The protagonist.

A girl who came to the capital from a village on the outskirts of the kingdom due to the prophecy of Origin.

Her hair is a light brown, which can appear golden depending on the light.

Her body type is average, with well-proportioned curves.

She prefers to dress in a way that allows her to move easily, often wearing a shirt and short pants.

Due to her characteristic of having all stats at 0, she couldn't run around outside much, so she dresses this way to appear more active.

Perhaps influenced by her own awareness, she has a very bright and active appearance.

All her stats are 0 due to her attribute "Inversion."

However, it's not to the point where she can't survive; she can still perform basic activities.

(The only thing that completely stopped working due to the 0 stats is magic.)

She had always believed she was weak due to Inversion, but the situation changed when she obtained cursed equipment.

She realized that she has the power to automatically invert any magic that directly affects her, and she gradually becomes stronger.

Her personality is generally bright, but she tends to become depressed when cornered.

Thank you very much!

●Milkit

Gender: Female

Age: 14

Height: 148 cm

A girl Flam met in a cage, with her face wrapped in bandages.

She has been treated as a slave since she was old enough to understand, and therefore has not been given a last name.

Her hair is silver and reaches her shoulders, but it is uneven due to not being properly cut.

Due to not being given proper meals, she is very small, with arms and legs that look as if they could break at any moment, and her ribs are visible around her chest.

Under the bandages, her body is swollen and infected due to the "Mustard Poison" administered by her previous master.

She speaks very little and has a blank expression.

Attribute: Darkness

Strength: 11

Magic: 8

Health: 9

Agility: 6

Senses: 15

●Kiril Svitka

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Height: 159 cm

Weapon: One-handed sword

A girl who set out on a journey to defeat the Demon King due to the prophecy of Origin.

She has short blonde hair in a bob cut.

Despite possessing the rare attribute "Hero" and high stats, she used to live peacefully in her hometown village.

She had always wished to continue that life, but her situation changed when she was chosen by Origin's prophecy.

Due to her sense of responsibility and justice, she could not refuse the request and had no choice but to set out on the journey.

She was feeling homesick, but she was saved thanks to Flam.

Her personality is gentle, but she is easily swayed and often falls into self-loathing when she fails.

●Jean Intage

Gender: Male

Age: 28

Height: 177 cm

A genius and hard worker, he has reportedly advanced the kingdom's magic technology by several levels since joining the research institution.

Although he is affiliated with the kingdom's research institute, he usually stays in his room and conducts his research independently.

He has long purple hair and wears glasses.

He often has a beard during his research and travels.

He wears a white lab coat during research, but during travels, he wears an epic-quality robe with intricate embroidery in black.

His personality is selfish and dogmatic.

He is fatally bad at group activities and, even when in a group, only thinks about how he can stand out and benefit himself.

(He has mostly acted alone since childhood and has little experience with group activities, so this is understandable.)

He believes himself to be the absolute right, and when others challenge this, he can become abnormally angry or motivated.

While emotional actions usually lead to failure for ordinary people, he is a genuine genius, so his impulsive actions often succeed unexpectedly.

Thus, he remains unaware of failure and continues to grow more arrogant.

Due to his personality, the only person he is close to in the party is the considerate Linus.

He possesses the rare attribute "Nature" and can use the four elemental magics: fire, water, wind, and earth.

●Eterna Limbau

Gender: Female

Age: Unknown

Height: 152 cm

Her appearance is not much different from Flam's.

She has long blue hair and wears a white bodysuit that clearly shows her body lines, along with a black witch-like hat on her head.

Two metal spheres float around her, which seem to be her weapons.

These epic-quality equipment also serve to amplify her magic.

Her attribute is water, which is not particularly rare, but her magic power is extremely high, making her spells incredibly powerful.

She is proficient in techniques that are supposed to be almost lost, such as herbal medicine.

Assuming she is the same age as Flam, it is unlikely that she would possess such knowledge.

She is probably much older than Flam, but her age remains unknown as she rarely talks about it.

Her personality is calm and laid-back.

However, she is quite considerate and can be strict when necessary.

●Gadio Lascatt

Gender: Male

Age: 32

Height: 197 cm

Weapon: Two-handed sword

A heavily armored swordsman who wields a massive two-handed sword.

He is an S-rank adventurer and was given the nickname "Brawny Star-Crusher" even before becoming a hero.

A veteran adventurer who has survived many battles, he usually has a stern face.

He also has a scar on his cheek and a rough voice, which makes him seem intimidating, but he is actually a kind person who teaches Flam swordsmanship and looks out for her.

His build is large, with broad shoulders and thick arms and legs, making Flam feel as if he is twice her size.

His hair is a dark brown and is cut short.

The armor and greatsword he always uses are of legendary quality and cannot be freely taken on and off.

●Linus Radiants

Gender: Male

Age: 24

Height: 184 cm

Weapon: Bow

A bow user with short green hair, wearing light armor and a cloak. An S-rank adventurer.

Compared to Gadio, he is slender, but this is because he has no unnecessary muscle.

His physical abilities are very high, especially his speed.

He left his hometown in his early teens to become an adventurer and gained fame, which led to his invitation to join the hero's party.

Initially, he joined for honor, money, and women, but after falling in love with Maria, he now fights for her.

His feelings for Maria are quite sincere.

He has extremely high vision and is responsible for reconnaissance and trap detection during the journey.

●Maria Avengeance

Gender: Female

Age: 18

Height: 162 cm

Weapon: Mace

A cleric known as a holy maiden in the church.

She wears the white robe characteristic of Origin religion sisters and has beautiful long blonde hair.

Her figure is very feminine.

She primarily handles healing, but she also attacks enemies with light magic and her mace when the opportunity arises.

She is generally very gentle and always wears a smile befitting a holy maiden.

She is aware that Linus is in love with her and seems to be not entirely averse to it.
