The Previous Lord

Race: Noble

The previous Lord was a kind person and trusted the ones around him. He took a liking to humans and their traditions. He could at times be quite humorous calling Frankenstein a peacock, who returned him the favour by calling him a bugger. All in all, he seemed to have a quite easy going personality compared to his daughter, the current Lord. He displayed a fatherly nature towards her, nagging her for her unladylike behavior and warning her to be careful around guys since they can’t be trusted. He also cared for Rai and wished that he would become the next Lord instead of his daughter. He even gave Rai two silver crosses as a gift stating that it was a human tradition.

One of them serves as Rai’s earring, the other one is located in Rai’s abandoned mansion in Lukedonia. His soul weapon is called Ragnarok. It takes the form of a beautiful decorated sword and it is supposed to be so powerful that humans associate it with the end of the world. The previous Lord went into eternal sleep 500 years ago, along with the other clan leaders, in order to free the next generation of their duty as Nobles and live their lives as they wish. He believed that it was time for the Nobles to change and leave it to the next generation. He truly cared for his daughter’s welfare and wished for her to escape her fate as the Lord, since the Lord’s life is burdened by huge responsibilities.

Gejutel said to Rai that the previous Lord had wished to see him one last time before going into eternal sleep, but that he was nowhere to be found. He seemed quite keen on making Rai the next Lord, asking him several times to become the next leader of the Nobles but Rai would constantly decline. However, the previous Lord insisted because he wanted Rai to escape being the Noblesse, who faces an even harder fate than the Lord. In order to convince Rai, he even went as far as to hide a part of his soul weapon in a temple in Rai’s mansion. (Source: Wikipedia, Noblesse Wikia)
