Main characters

Chance d'Estaing

A young demon girl, having a human appearance but she also has two little horns on the forehead and two demonic wings in the back, like a bat. Despite having wings, she can only glide. During the group's secret operations, her code name is Blackbird.

Exuberant, she is always ready to embark on crazy plans and to advocate nudity when circumstances seem to lend it the least. Extremely frail, she has almost no strength but is very flexible. She is adopted and has seven little brothers, which gave her some knowledge of fencing. Her mother is unknown, but it is known from Volume 5 that her father is the devil himself (Cernunnos) and that her demonic name is Pipistrelle.

She began a strong relationship with the professor of law faculty, Funeral from Volume 3, after he took her under his wing to teach her how to fight.

Since volume 3, she has an extremely strong and sharp sword, Razorback. This sword is powerful enough to give her the power to win the duel between universities.

Ombre de Loup

A gigantic lupine being known for being extremely strong, he has a discreet, shy and tranquil personality. He presents himself as werewolf who isn't going to return to his human form. During the operations with his teammates he adopts the codename Airwolf.

In a previous time, he was a member of a group of commando, but his nature drove him apart from humans. As a double spy for mother nature, he sometime has to present a report of the state of his mission before the creatures of the forest. He used to live deep in the forest but was kicked out due to defendind Valkyrie from a bear.

Even though of his timid and calm behaviour, he feels attracted to Xiong Mao.
