King Tristwin Ernes Belfast

- Like a Son to Me: King Tristwin sees Touya as the son he never had, and deeply wants to formally adopt him as heir to his throne. To the extent that he's disappointed when his second child is an actual son, thus disqualifying Touya from ruling.
- Lord Country: He's the King of Belfast and has his kingdom's name for a surname.
- Master of All: He briefly gains all of Touya's powers during the final battle against the Mutant Phrase through the use of a magic app that had been distributed to everyone's smartphones.

- Shipper on Deck: When Yumina says she wants to marry Touya, the King agrees immediately, shoots down all of Touya's arguments, and even bends the rules of the engagement to give Yumina time to win him over. When their engagement is finalized after Touya commits to it, he is very pleased to see that Yumina has "conquered" Touya.

The infant prince of Belfast.
- Babies Make Everything Better: In a literal sense, his birth resolved a potential succession crisis, as the royal family had no remaining heirs after Touya became a grand duke.

- Just One More Level!: The Duke's reaction to learning Shōgi is to ask for "just one more game?" late at night.
- Like a Son to Me: Like his brother, Duke Alfred sees Touya as the son he never had. For that reason, he never had any opposition whatsoever to Sue's desire to marry Touya and, in fact is the one who makes it happen by publicly declaring Touya to be her fiancé so that Prince Zabune can't get her.
- Papa Wolf: When Prince Zabune, a known rapist and pedophile, states that he's chosen Sue to be his bride, Duke Alfred says that if the Prince were in Belfast right now, he'd beat him to death with his own hands. He doesn't care if it would start a war.

Charlotte
Voiced by: Yuuki Kuwahara (Japanese), Alexis Tipton (English), Laura Sánchez (Latin American Spanish)

- Luminescent Blush: When she sees Touya perform Recovery, she gains a very lewd blush. When she finds out he can use multiple affinities, it deepens even further.
- Summon Magic: Her lifelong dream was to see a spirit after meeting one as a child, so she studied everything she could about spirit magic, only for Touya to teach her what he learned from the spirits themselves about spirit summoning and contracting. Upon the creation of a contract with a Sylph, she received a magic stone that allows her contracted spirit to be called upon.

A vile nobleman who spearheaded an elaborate plot to get Belfast to declare war on Mismede.
- The Chessmaster: He attempted two separate plots to get the king to declare war on Mismede, and both of them were foiled by Touya.
- He first hired a summoner to attack Sue's carriage, with the intention of holding her hostage unless the Duke and the King complied to his demands.

- Fantastic Racism: He hates demihumans, and was willing to kill the king and blame it on Mismede's ambassador Olga so that Belfast could declare war on the kingdom of demihumans.

- I Never Said It Was Poison: He outs himself as the one responsible for the assassination attempt when he freaks out after he believes he drank from the wine glass that he had poisoned.
- Obviously Evil: Just from his normal mannerisms/looks alone is more than enough to identify him as a villain that it's hardly even a spoiler, just a matter of nailing his treachery in the act, which allows Touya to oust him as the despicable villain he really is.
