Yumiella Dolkness: Begins as her skeptic and rival, challenging her to "prove" herself. Grows to respect her after repeated defeats. Alicia: His romantic focus; he’s devoted to protecting her, drawn to her light magic and gentle nature. Prince Edwin: A close friend and fellow capture target; they share a competitive yet supportive bond. Oswald: Part of their trio, with William’s impulsiveness clashing with Oswald’s scheming. Adolf: A mentor figure who reveals Yumiella’s true strength, spurring William’s growth.

Swordsmanship: A prodigy with masterful technique, excelling in precision and power. He’s the academy’s top swordsman. Physical Prowess: Boasts exceptional strength, speed, and stamina, though laughably outclassed by level 99 opponents. Combat Style: Wields a longsword with aggressive, calculated strikes, specializing in melee but lacking magical aptitude. Weaknesses: Overconfidence and a tendency to underestimate foes; limited to physical combat, vulnerable to magic.

Hailing from a prestigious military family, William was raised with a sword in hand and expectations of greatness. His father, a decorated general, drilled into him a code of chivalry and discipline. In the otome game Light Magic and the Hero, he’s a key capture target for heroine Alicia, embodying the "valiant knight" archetype. At the Royal Academy, he’s a star in combat classes, unaware of the game’s deeper mechanics until Yumiella’s overwhelming power shakes his world.

William is fiery, prideful, and fiercely competitive, with a strong sense of justice that sometimes blinds him to reason. He values strength and honor, quick to challenge anyone he suspects of deceit—most notably Yumiella, whose level 99 claim he initially scoffs at. His hot-headed nature leads to impulsive decisions, but beneath the bravado lies loyalty to his friends and a protective instinct, especially for Alicia. Through humbling defeats, he learns to temper his arrogance, evolving into a more considerate ally while retaining his bold edge.
