Product Information

Heroic Lineage: What he thinks he has, by being the descendant of a "Master." Even if he's right, this doesn't automatically make him a hero, and he certainly isn't heroic, at all. Would Hurt a Child: Race, gender, or age, there is no criteria that she will spare. In fact, Momo's soul begins to painfully fall apart just being near her as Light, Mei, and Eri are facing off against Shion and the Soul Dragon, and the injuries ghost Momo manifests are precisely what Shion put her through. Circular Reasoning: Masters are dangerous because they protect/avenge humans. Humans birth "Masters." Humans are pests that must be exterminated to prevent the birth of Masters. Brainless Beauty: She's adorable, but she's so dumb, she can't even get to 1x3 on the multiplication table before she gets it wrong.

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra: Dropped during Volume 3. How am I supposed to stay invested in the story if the author changes up the world mechanics willy-nilly like this? I think this and Her Majesty's Swarm have demonstrated that it's damned hard to keep this sort of series going.Evil Orphan: He’s noted to have been raised in an orphanage, and doesn’t care who he hurts or what depths he has to sink for his goal. Boomerang Bigot: The strongest people in non-human races descend from human "Masters", but they are incredibly racist against humans. Make It Look Like an Accident: She stops Shion from using torture magic on Light only because that would ruin the party's cover story that a monster got him. Adaptation Expansion: The original web-novel only has 6 races, including humans. The light novel and manga have 9, adding dark-elves, ghouls, and centaurs. The Berserker: Eila can make herself go berserk to move faster and hit harder in return for losing her consciousness.

Wow, Dark. You can use tactical spells, and even without chanting! We're witnessing the birth of a legend!!!The mage of a party of human children Light meets in the Dagas dungeon. Her talent with magic is enough for all nine races to write her a recommendation to the magic academy, an impressive feat, especially for a human. She was partying with her brother and two other childhood friends to raise the money for her tuition and for practical experience.Last-Second Chance: When Light captures him, he's offered the chance to be set free if he can win a fair one-on-one fight, with Light swearing a magical-compelling oath, and under extremely generous terms. He proves that he's no hero by trying to flee. At this point, Light loses all respect for this guy and decides to torture him for what he knows about the "Master" he loves to brag about. Fantastic Racism: Up to eleven and breaking the knob trying to turn it higher. With the exception of the dwarf race, all the non-humans have such an insane superiority complex that they're outright genocidal to humans, for being "inferior."

Cynicism Catalyst: His party "Gathering of Races" (Manga) unilaterally deciding to torture and kill him for sport because he's "not a master" after spending quite some time pretending to be kind to him and then calling him "stupid" for believing it has made him rather jaded and cruel. Ambition Is Evil: Part of her reward for dealing with Light is marrying into royalty, so when she finds a letter indicating Light might have survived, she panics and goes into an obvious trap, for fear of having that pending marriage taken away.Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: She's a vampire and she's friendly to everyone, until she's given reason not to be. Ignorant of His Own Ignorance: He brags of going from level 150 when he betrayed Light to level 158 when they meet again, years later. In the same time frame, Light has gone from level 15 to level 9999 and has an army of hundreds, the weakest combatant being level 1000. When he learns it, he can only shudder in terror and despair, his fur turning prematurely gray. Obliviously Evil: For the life of him, he just can't understand why nobody would agree that his desire to exterminate humans to "save" them from their suffering is a noble goal. Break the Haughty: Light's favorite way to dispense justice to his enemies is to first trample their superiority complex to the ground, and then he gets serious. Fantastic Racism: Averted, but in her case, it's not a good thing. She will sacrifice the souls of anyone she has to, regardless of race, For Science!.

Driven by Envy: He admits in chapter 55 that he's always been jealous of humans for their ability to get [Gifts] so targets Dark after coming to the conclusion that Dark's got a powerful one he can try and steal for himself using Shion's research. Genre: Sword and sorcery, shoujo. Teen girl sets out on a dangerous journey, hires a handsome jerk bodyguard who happens to be a fairy. Fun read. Author makes the most out of the premise. I have more that I want to talk about, but it's all spoilers. Beauty Is Bad: As an elf, she's aesthetically pleasing, but she's needlessly sadistic and cruel to everyone who won't help with her agency, the moment she thinks she can get away with it.The Cake Is a Lie: On his first appearance, he's snuggling a female human slave and pretends to dote on her, but when she's out of the room, he reveals that he doesn't care about her, at all, and is only stringing her along by the promise that she's safe as long as she keeps him happy, intending to kill her and dump her when he gets bored, and she's not the first, by a long-shot.
