Description
Allucia Citrus is a prominent supporting character who serves as the young and exceptionally talented commander of the Royal Order of Knights in the kingdom of Revelio. A former student of the protagonist, Beryl Gardenant, she is one of his most distinguished disciples, having trained under him in his rural dojo years before the main events of the story. Her appearance is striking and elegant, characterized by long, straight silver hair, bright bluish-green eyes, and a tall, slender figure, which together give her a cool and commanding presence.
In terms of personality, Allucia is a figure of duality. On the surface, as the leader of the royal knights, she typically behaves with serene confidence, composure, and a strong sense of duty, radiating the authority expected of her high rank. She is highly intelligent, possessing not only combat prowess but also sharp political acumen and strategic thinking, which have been essential to her meteoric rise through the ranks. However, beneath this dignified exterior lies a much more emotional and vulnerable side that emerges almost exclusively in matters concerning her former master, Beryl. She harbors profound feelings for him that extend far beyond simple respect or admiration, developing into a deep and openly romantic love. This affection often manifests as intense jealousy and possessiveness, making her prone to emotional outbursts if she perceives other women, such as her fellow former student Surena Lysandra, getting too close to Beryl. Despite her usual reserve, she can become impulsive and straightforward when it comes to him, though her earnest advances are often tempered by Beryl's obliviousness to her romantic intentions.
Allucia's primary motivation is deeply rooted in her past. Coming from a merchant family rather than nobility, she demonstrated remarkable talent from a young age at Beryl's dojo, mastering the curriculum in just four years and graduating at the age of sixteen as his top student. From that time, her singular goal has been to create a stage worthy of Beryl's incredible skill, believing he deserves far more recognition than the humble countryside life allows. This devotion drives her entire career; she joined the Royal Order of Knights specifically to gain influence, and she climbed its ranks at an unprecedented pace, becoming the youngest person ever to lead the order. Once in power, she uses her position to recommend Beryl for the role of special swordsmanship instructor for the Order by imperial command, hoping to finally reveal his true greatness to the world.
Her role in the story is that of the primary catalyst, as her actions are directly responsible for bringing Beryl from his isolated village to the capital, setting the entire plot in motion. She continues to act as a key figure in his new life, serving as his patron and one of his most ardent supporters. Her key relationships are defined by her connection to Beryl, whom she respects as her master while simultaneously pursuing him as a romantic interest. She treasures the sword he gave her upon her graduation, using it in her official duties as a personal keepsake. She also has a rivalry with Surena, another of Beryl's former students, viewing her as a competitor for his attention. To her own subordinates in the knighthood, she is a figure of admiration and respect, known for her fair but firm leadership.
Throughout the narrative, Allucia shows little need for development in terms of her combat ability, as she is already considered one of the finest swordsmen in the kingdom. Her development instead centers on the tension between her professional dignity and her personal desires, as she struggles to balance her duties as a commander with her impulsive attempts to get closer to Beryl. Regarding her notable abilities, Allucia is renowned by the title of Divine Speed or the Unstoppable Lightning, a testament to her incredible swiftness with a blade. Her signature technique involves accelerating her body from a state of complete stillness to deliver a blindingly fast attack, mastering the art of the iaijutsu-style surprise strike. Her swordsmanship is so refined that even Beryl, a master of the highest order, considers her to be one of the perfect forms of swordsmanship.
