Description
Brett is a supporting character in the anime who serves as a primary antagonist, directly opposing the protagonist. He is the younger brother of Allen Westfelt, the series' main character, and is positioned as the next head of the noble Westfelt family. In terms of physical appearance, Brett is depicted as a young adult male with blue hair that is cut to ear length and gray eyes, often wearing a vest, dress shirt, and boots.
Brett’s personality is defined by his ambition, cruelty, and delusional sense of self-importance. Following the death of his mother, Mariel, his disposition changed for the worse, and alongside his father, the tyrannical Duke Craig Westfelt, he subjected his older brother Allen to constant mistreatment and emotional abuse. He is described as a delusional maniac who believed Allen to be a failure and supported his banishment from the family, fully endorsing the idea that Allen was worthless and deserved to be cast out.
As the story progresses, Brett’s role in the plot shifts from an off-screen source of past trauma to an active and immediate threat. He is not merely a passive noble but a schemer who orchestrates elaborate plans to consolidate power. His motivations are driven by a desire for control and a willingness to upend the established social order to achieve it. In a significant move, Brett reveals a plan to the kingdom’s population, proposing that people should voluntarily give up their divine Gifts in exchange for the support of demons. This scheme aims to challenge the entire system of power within the kingdom and demonstrates his ambition to seize control by any means necessary.
Brett’s most important relationship is with his older brother, Allen. The dynamic is one of deep betrayal and superiority, as Brett was one of the primary architects of Allen’s suffering and expulsion. However, this perceived superiority is an illusion. When the two finally confront each other directly, Brett’s power and schemes prove utterly insignificant against the hidden might of the former hero. Allen defeats Brett with humiliating ease, landing a single punch to his face that completely incapacitates him. This defeat highlights the central irony of Brett’s character: for all his cunning and delusions of grandeur, he was never a true threat to Allen, and his entire worldview was built on a false premise about his brother’s weakness.
In terms of development, Brett serves as a catalyst for the plot and a representation of the corrupt nobility that Allen has left behind. After his decisive defeat at Allen’s hands, and following the death of his father, Brett’s standing is shattered. He is offered the position of duke but is shown to be powerless and irrelevant in the face of true strength. Brett does not possess unique magical or combative abilities that set him apart. Instead, his notable abilities are his strategic mind for manipulation and conspiracy, as seen in his plan to form a pact with demons and dismantle the Gift system from within, making him a political and social threat rather than a physical one for most of the story.
