Description
Gard Mjöllmile, often referred to simply as Mjormail, is a prominent merchant and financial administrator in the world of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime. He originates from the Kingdom of Blumund, where he built a reputation as a shrewd and ambitious trader. His background as a merchant is marked by both legitimate commerce and discreet involvement in the underworld, including money lending and influence peddling through a secret organization known as Riega, which he co-founded alongside the Sorcery Dynasty of Thalion's ruler, Elmesia El-Ru Thalion.
Mjormail's personality is characterized by sharp business acumen, pragmatism, and an ability to navigate both official and clandestine channels. He is not a warrior and has no combat abilities of note, relying instead on intellectual cunning, negotiation, and economic strategy. He is deeply loyal to Rimuru Tempest, having witnessed Rimuru's power and ideals firsthand during an encounter in Ingrasia where Rimuru saved him from a sky dragon. This encounter inspired Mjormail to seek a partnership with the newly formed Jura Tempest Federation.
His primary motivation is to achieve financial success and stability, but he also genuinely believes in Rimuru's vision of a peaceful, multi-racial nation. He relishes the challenge of building Tempest's economy from the ground up and takes pride in his role as the only human among Tempest's core executives. He is driven by a desire to prove his worth and to secure his own legacy as a key architect of the nation's prosperity.
In the story, Mjormail serves as the head of Tempest's Finance and Public Relations Department. He is responsible for managing the nation's budget, negotiating trade deals, establishing economic policies, and representing Tempest in commercial alliances such as the Four Nations Trade Alliance. He also acts as the public face of Tempest in dealings with human nations, using his diplomatic skills to ease tensions and facilitate cooperation. His behind-the-scenes activities include running the secret organization Riega, which helps stabilize the western nations by controlling illicit elements and fostering a stable economic environment.
His key relationships include a close working partnership with Rimuru, who trusts him implicitly with the nation's finances and entrusts him with significant autonomy. He collaborates frequently with Elmesia El-Ru Thalion, with whom he co-founded Riega, sharing a mutual respect for each other's intellect and ambition. Within Tempest, he interacts with other executives such as Diablo and Benimaru, though his role keeps him primarily focused on civilian and economic matters rather than military ones. His relationship with King Youm Farmenas is also notable, as Mjormail helped arrange Youm's marriage and subsequent coronation as part of his long-term economic plans.
Mjormail's development over the series is marked by his transition from a profit-driven merchant into a loyal statesman who identifies strongly with Tempest's success. Initially wary of monsters and the potential for conflict, he gradually embraces his position as a trusted advisor and friend to Rimuru. He learns to balance his own ambitions with the greater good of the nation, often putting Tempest's needs above personal gain. His confidence grows as he sees his economic policies bear fruit, transforming Tempest into a thriving economic hub.
Notable abilities include his exceptional business intuition, administrative organization, and deep understanding of trade laws and international relations. He is a master of logistics and supply chain management, able to coordinate complex transactions across multiple nations. He possesses a talent for subterfuge and information gathering through his network of contacts. In the later arcs, he gains access to enhanced physical abilities through skills granted by Rimuru, but his greatest strength remains his intellect and economic expertise rather than any combat prowess. Mjormail stands as a testament to the importance of non-combat roles in building a nation, embodying the theme that leadership can take many forms.
