Hermes

Hermes is Middray's assistant and a priest of the Dragon Faithful serving Milim Nava.

Appearance
His outfit consists of priest robes. He has a mark on his forehead and wears earrings.

Personality
He shares the same devotion to Milim but isn't as hot-blooded and bellicose as Middray. Due to his travels across the land and the insight he gained into various cuisines, he understands and sympathizes with why Milim rarely, if at all, visits the temple and eat their food but he struggles to convey that to Middray, as he believes food is best served raw.

The Octagram Soars Brightly
He's introduced along with Middray as they both lament the situation Clayman's army put them through, their precious resources were being extorted for an attack on Eurazania. They couldn't do anything about it because Milim herself wrote an edict granting them passage through her territory among other rights, and they couldn't defy her. Middray manages to bottle up his complaints and puts up with Yamza's demands in the meanwhile, but Hermes through a slip of tongue lets one out, in which he had his arm lopped off for. Before things could escalate Middray sends Hermes flying to a nearby wall with a kick and asks Yamza to let him handle Hermes' punishment which Yamza accepted, successfully pouring water on the situation. Following that, they're then seen on the battlefield providing support in the rear to Clayman's army, they witness Yamza's force taking significant losses to Rimuru's army before Gabiru and Suphia approach them. After they introduce themselves and state their affiliation with Milim, hostilities between them disappeared but because Middray insisted they continue fighting, they went at it in a friendly battle until they sensed Charybdis' in the distance. They halted their match and readied themselves to defend but not too soon was the threat swiftly dispatched by Benimaru. Benimaru then teleports in on them prepared to attack but notices the friendly atmosphere they exhibited. After a few talks, the battle was officially over.
