Agera

"The sword is an extension of your body; thus, first master the body."

Agera (アゲーラ) is a Marquis in the Daemon Realm and one of Carrera's subordinates. He is the reincarnation of Byakuya Araki (荒木白夜), founder of the Hazy Style and Hakurou's grandfather and master.

Appearance
A middle-aged man with white hair speckled with gold, brushed back and tied up in a knot. he has a long white beard and a thin, wrinkled face. However, his sharp eyes and straight, clean posture showed no signs of aging.

Personality
Agera acts as the voice of reason for Carrera, as well as for his fellow lieutenant Esprit, who also serves under Carrera. Therefore, for someone in his position, Agera is calm most of the time. However, since he, like all of Rimuru's subordinates, is extremely loyal and devoted to him, a single insult towards his master is enough to drive him into a rage for a short time.

He also gets angry if anyone insults him or his boss Carrera due to his prideful nature as a Daemon, though to a lesser degree.

Background
400 years ago, he wandered into the ogre village. The villagers were suspicious, but the chief warmly welcomed him. Around the same time, a Lesser Dragon was rampaging in the forest. After expressing his gratitude, Araki defeated the dragon. The villagers hallowed his name and passed down his praise to the later generations. They soon began imitating the lad's attire. He had taught them various techniques, and through trial and error, they learned them.

He later married an ogre in the village and had a daughter, and then became Hakurou's master and grandfather. Around 300 years ago, after he died, his soul was reincarnated as a Daemon and taken under Primordial Daemon Jaune. Along with his master and peers, he's given a body and name Agera by Rimuru. After he and his master became Rimuru's subordinates, Agera was recruited as an officer in the Black Numbers.

Araki's younger brother laid the foundation of "Hazy Lifestream Style" in the otherworld and is the ancestor of Gensei Araki, the master of Tatsuya Kondou, Masahiko Amari and Saburo Minamoto.
