Age: 27 Height: 163cm Gender: Female Appearance: Silver ponytail, blue eyes, well-featured and lovely face Clothing: Chalk-white armor, a cloak lined with white fur Role: Leader of the Four Knights Alias: The Silver Knight

Personality: Gentle and polite, she tries to engage in dialogue as much as possible before fighting. She cannot ignore people in trouble and will spare even enemy soldiers if they surrender. However, if she deems it necessary to protect the people, she can swing her sword even while understanding the opponent's circumstances.

Abilities: "Lux Pharos" Accumulates the impact absorbed during combat as light, converting it into physical ability and sword power. An ability suited for battles of attrition, growing stronger the more offense and defense are repeated.

"Sanctuary of the Luminous Night" Spreads the accumulated light into the surroundings, generating countless light swords within the domain. The light swords follow her own swordsmanship, multiplying a single slash several times over.

Age: 20 Height: 171cm Gender: Female Appearance: Short red wolf-cut hair, golden eyes, sharp gaze, healthy skin Clothing: Black iron light armor, a red cape Role: Vanguard Captain of the Four Knights Alias: The Crimson Knight

Personality: Spirited and short-tempered. She easily intimidates others because she speaks her mind immediately, but she is caring and looks after even her subordinates' meals and equipment. She detests people who push danger onto others using nothing but platitudes. Because she takes it for granted that she stands in the most dangerous place, she unconsciously demands the same resolve from others.

Abilities: "Ignis Heart" Mana and physical abilities increase in proportion to the rise in heart rate, allowing her to release the heat generated within her body as flames. While she grows stronger the more excited she gets, if her breathing is disrupted by anger, her control over mana also becomes rough. Exceeding her limits causes her to lose consciousness from dehydration or overheating.

"Scorching Dragon Descent" Clads her entire body in dragon-shaped flames, breaking through enemy lines with explosive acceleration. A single strike from her greatsword can melt through even a castle gate. While active, the firepower exceeds her own heat resistance, causing burns to spread across her body. Sudden stops and fine directional changes are also difficult, making it unusable if allies are nearby.

Age: 19 Height: 158cm Gender: Female Appearance: Pale blue bob hair, purple eyes, sleepy-looking eyes, slender build Clothing: Navy blue knight uniform, silver breastplate, a large white cloak Role: Court Ritualist of the Four Knights Alias: The Azure Return Knight

Personality: Gentle and soft-spoken to everyone. When there is something she wants to know, she gets close and asks question after question. Her desire to help those who suffer is genuine, but she trusts calculations over emotions. If she believes that "a small burden can save many," she tends to disregard the refusal of the person bearing that burden.

Abilities: "Ars Record" Memorizes the structure of observed magic and reproduces what she has analyzed. Even for magic seen once, she cannot use it until she understands the mechanism. She cannot replicate the innate abilities of others, and the power of the reproduced magic depends on her own mana capacity.

Secret Technique: "Azure Sky Archive" Deploys countless magic circles around herself, activating memorized formulas in parallel. She controls the entire battlefield by performing restraint, defense, and interception simultaneously. The burden on her brain increases as the formulas multiply, and exceeding her limit causes her memory to become muddled. Because there is a risk of mistaking the positions of allies and enemies, she is forced to abort if her comrades notice any abnormality.

Age: 18 Height: 155cm Gender: Female Appearance: Long black braided hair, gray eyes, a friendly smile Clothing: Black light armor, a hooded cloak, daggers at her waist and thighs Role: Special Reconnaissance Officer of the Four Knights Alias: The Black Shadow Knight

Personality: Bright and fond of jokes, she speaks naturally even to people she meets for the first time. She notices changes in the opponent's facial expressions and voice well, and is skilled at choosing the words they want to hear. However, she is bad at speaking her true feelings. If she feels she might be disliked, she preemptively distances herself, trying to end the relationship before getting hurt.

Abilities: "Nox Gate" Moves between visible shadows. She can bring along exactly one person she is touching, but she cannot dive into the shadow if the opponent strongly resists. The longer the travel distance, the more body heat is drained. Furthermore, it cannot be used if she cannot perceive the boundaries of the shadow, whether in a bright place or in complete darkness.

"Nocturnal Burial Corridor" Connects multiple pre-marked shadows, moving continuously between them. In addition to slashes from all directions, it can be used to rescue the wounded. Her body temperature drops with each movement, causing trembling in her limbs and a decline in judgment. If the positions of the marks are discovered and the shadows are erased with light, the movement path collapses.
